Workplace Spirituality Among Chemists and Pharmacists from Erbil City as a Predictor of Their Workplace Attitudes
Over the past 10 years, the removal of the psychological contract, significant layoffs, increased use of technology, and physical maltreatment of employees have all increased interest in corporate spirituality. At the same time, to combat the potential of burnout among working professionals, interest in spirituality is growing in the workplace. Therefore, this becomes an interesting topic for research especially post-COVID-19. This research is carried out to investigate the role of Workplace spirituality of Chemists and Pharmacists as a predictor of their workplace attitude. For the study Chemists and pharmacists were interviewed using a structured questionnaire. They were selected randomly from Erbil City in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq. Hence convenient methods of sampling were used. A workplace spirituality tool developed by Ashmos and Duchon comprising 23 items was used. The sample size is 78 with 91.76% of response rate. The results indicate that workplace spirituality positively predicts workplace attitudes. This result was confirmed by the test of hypothesis. Based on the results obtained it can be recommended that some flexibility in terms of Job crafting and working hours can be given to the employees to be more productive.

Relationship between Leisure Satisfaction and Addiction to Social Media: Case Study on Sports Students of Lebanese French University
In this digital age, when every second person has access to the internet, one is more likely to spend too much time surfing. Recently, due to the Covid-19 virus, the general public faced a total lockdown for the first time. As a result, the Internet has become the only source of entertainment and communication. In this pandemic situation, along with other students, sports students spent a lot of time on social media because they had no choice but to sit at home and not go out and play. This study was conducted to find a relationship between leisure satisfaction and addiction to social media. The study population consisted of students engaged in any sports activity from the Lebanese French University, Erbil. The sample counted 224 (107 male and 117 female) students. Data was collected from the students with the help of a structured questionnaire. To reach a conclusion, T-Test and Anova were used. It was found out that the students’ gender and age affect their levels of leisure satisfaction. It turned out that the female students were more satisfied with their leisure time than their male counterparts. However, among university students, a significant negative relationship was found between leisure satisfaction and addiction to social media.

Recent management trends involved with the internet of things in Indian automotive components manufacturing industries
The development of smart manufacturing systems is being driven by a variety of diverse needs for the dependability of equipment and the prediction of quality. In order to accomplish this objective through the use of machine learning, a wide range of approaches are being investigated. The management and protection of one’s company’s data presents yet another challenging aspect of doing business. In order to cope with fraudulent datasets, machine learning and internet of things technologies were utilised. These technologies were used to protect system transactions and manage a dataset. Because of this, we were able to find solutions to the problems that we had previously discussed. The gathered information was organised and examined with the help of big data techniques. The Internet of Things system was constructed using the Hyperledger Fabric platform, which is a private computer network. In addition, a hybrid prediction strategy was utilised for the defect diagnostic as well as the defect forecasting. The latest machine learning techniques were utilised in order to model the complexity of the environment and estimate the genuine positive ratio of the quality control system. The quality control of the system was evaluated using these pieces of data.
