10 Biggest Job cuts in 2012 by IT cos

Tough times are back in the business world, and with them the job cuts. The past few months have seen several global giants, including IT companies, shed jobs. While in some cases the reason behind these job cuts is business restructuring, in others it is the need to become more cost efficient. Here are some of the biggest IT companies which have announced job cuts in 2012.

1) HP – 27,000
In May, Hewlett Packard (HP) announced it will lay-off 27,000 employees across the globe. This included 9,000 job cuts in the USA, while CEO Meg Whitman assured that this move will not affect employees in India.

2) Nokia – 14,000
In February, Nokia stated that it planned to fire 2,300, 1,000 and 700 jobs in Hungary, Finland and Mexico, respectively, as it shifted all manufacturing operations to Asia. Then in June, Nokia declared plans to let go of 10,000 of its employees by the end of 2013 as part of the cost cutting initiative.

3) Sony - 10,000
Sony in April said it will shed 10,000 employees as part of its 'One Sony' initiative. This means that the company will lose 6% of its global staff in a bid to once again become profitable.

(Civil Project) Rehabilation and Maintenance of Road Pavements using High Early Strength Concrete


The vast amount of civil infrastructure in the United States includes an extensive stretch of road networks. From an economic point of view it is more cost effective to maintain the already existing pavements rather than building new ones. A large proportion of the traffic delays on these road networks are caused by road closures and closures of individual lanes for pavement maintenance purposes.

(Mechanical Project) Parameterized Automated Generic Model for Aircraft Wing Structural Design and Mesh Generation for Finite Element Analysis


This work presents the development of a parameterized automated generic model for the structural design of an aircraft wing. Furthermore, in order to perform finite element analysis on the aircraft wing geometry, the process of finite element mesh generation is automated.

Management Project) Understanding Consumer Preference in the Flower Industry


The problem that has been addressed in the following thesis is the lack of data concerning customer perceptions and expectations of services provided to them by companies in the floral industry. We have through this study attempted to offer an insight into the Swedish floral industry and hope that this research will provide for the required data to better understand the expectations of flower shoppers.

(Computer Project) Android Environment Security


In modern times mobile devices are a increasing technology and malicious users are increasing as well. On a mobile device it often exist valuable private information that a malicious user is interested in and it often has lower security features implemented compared to computers. It is therefore important to be aware of the security risks that exist when using a mobile device in order to stay protected.

(Electronics Project) Multilevel Power Estimation Of VLSI Circuits Using Efficient Algorithms


New and complex systems are being implemented using highly advanced Electronic Design Automation (EDA) tools. As the complexity increases day by day, the dissipation of power has emerged as one of the very important design constraints. Now low power designs are not only used in small size applications like cell phones and handheld devices but also in high-performance computing applications.
