An Idea - The importance of INDEX for continuous tracking of organizational health.

The need of Index in every entity - For instant transparency on organization health !!

This idea of INDEX is primarily segregated into two parts, firstly for all business/administrative organizations be it in private or non-private sector, and secondly for tracking the health of a particular practice or trade nationally.


IDEA 1 –  Organization Progress Index 
While I was in my previous organization, I proposed an idea to our then CEO, for an internal Organization Progress Index. It was primarily meant for transparent monitoring and tracking of the organizational health by considering all the critical parameters and dependencies that constitutes a global IT organization’s health. Our then CEO did reply to my email, stating that he will share the idea with his team for due consideration. 
Continuing in the same frequency, I happen to have recently researched further through the net, and have come across a McKinsey solution for OHI – Organization Health Index, for various organizations and corporates across the globe. 
I would like to concentrate in the same manner, for organizations in the private and public sector, as well as for government entities at the central and state level, within our Indian dominion. 
I propose to model an organization’s health as per the model used to calculate the Sensex in our BSE. Sensex is an abbreviation of the word Sensitive Index - the benchmark index of the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE). It is composed of 30 of the largest and most actively-traded stocks on the BSE. 
I do not intend to make an organization trade within its insiders.  
What I suggest is just like BSE index is composed of 30 of the largest and most actively-traded stocks on the BSE, similarly in my proposed Organization Index, the primary contributors will be those departments in an organization which contributes to the maximum profit and revenue for the organization. 
The critical parameters and dependencies that constitutes an organization’s health, will be fed into the proposed model, as per its department’s data and will constitute the collated index. 

We may refer to documents on how to start off initially by studying the approach initiated by McKinsey for their existing OHI solution. 

What I am trying to propose out here, is just to suggest all registered private/public sector entities and state/central government entities as well, in India to have their individual Organization Progress Index (OPI). This index can and will directly or indirectly help an organization in maintaining a balanced financial health (both internally as well as externally). 
Additionally, with the inclusion of an organization’s financial data science features and futuristic machine learning algorithms, an entity can build a predictive model to foresee their future health, and if required this index can be inter-related to its relation with BSE or NSE (if that respective organization is listed in any of the stock exchanges nationally, or any other foreign stock exchange). 


IDEA 2 - National Index for E-Wallets

As NIFTY Banking index is already in place for banks, so in similar lines I want to propose an idea to have a National INDEX for Indian e-commerce payment system and digital wallet entities, irrespective of the industry. Because all these e-wallets have one common interest, i.e. mobile and online money/payments. 
We can coordinate with NPCI and RBI, in order to make this happen. 

NPCI - National Payments Corporation of India is an umbrella organisation for operating retail payments and settlement systems in India. 
RBI - The Reserve Bank of India is India's central banking institution, which controls the issuance and supply of the Indian rupee.




The above list of existing e-wallet companies in India, can be found from the below link 

These two INDEX related ideas are not meant for India only. 
With efficient planning, modelling and subsequent implementation, these ideas can be experienced by any entity or country, across the globe.

Instantiating DAY and NIGHT with Boolean and Fuzzy logic - An idea for a probable school project ?

Fuzzy logic is a form of many-valued logic in which the truth values of variables may be any real number between 0 and 1, considered to be “fuzzy.”  By contrast, in Boolean logic, the truth values of variables may only be the “crisp” values 0 or 1. Generally speaking, in regions across our planet, which comprises of natural human habitat, we do see a certain time of the 24 hours of a day is dark, while the rest of the time it is naturally bright. By stating naturally bright, I am implying to the influence and effect of sun on that concerned geographical area. However there are regions on earth which has more than 24 hours of sunlight at a single stretch/span of time. It has been observed, that human population in such regions are comparatively much lesser. Here I am trying to project a state of complete/maximum darkness as "0" ( Boolean Zero ), and a state of complete/maximum brightness as "1" ( Boolean One ). The remaining states in between complete da...

A Feasible Idea-Proposal for an Algorithmic Trading App supplemented with Deep Learning features.

Algorithmic Trading is a method of executing orders using automated pre-programmed trading instructions accounting for variables such as time, price, and volume to send small slices of the order (child orders) out to the market over time. This concept and practice of Algorithmic Trading has been evolving over the past few years, and is now a continuous evolution on its own. By now, there are a host of Algorithmic Trading Tools & Software in the global market. Even Algorithmic Trading Apps have started evolving, as expected. Few useful links are provided below. 9 great tools for Algorithmic Trading An Algorithmic Trading App from Trade Smart STREAK - An Algorithmic Trading App from Apple After navigating through the above links, one might still wonder on how many of these tools, software, and apps are actually equipped with Deep Learning features.  It is very much possible and obviously true that continuous research and development is in progress, in order to achi...

FLOOD PREVENTION - Automatic Emergency Water Gates Along The Riversides - A probable option ??

Flood due to raging rivers from excessive rainfall is a very common scenario across the globe, because engineering and technology is yet to invent anything till date, to control the weather's wrath. If we can construct huge underground car parking areas, then humans can also construct underground concrete water reservoirs, because that day is not far off, when humans has to accept and realize that preservation of rain-water and river-water, will be much more important than owning fleets of expensive cars. Whenever there is an excessive rainfall in any geographical region with rivers and its tributaries, the river gradually starts flowing above the threshold/danger mark.  I hereby propose to construct automatic emergency water gates along the riversides, at a little lower level as per the danger mark scale. And these automated gates will lead the excess river-water, to the underground concrete water reservoirs (proposed above) through an underground piping system (slanted in a...
