The relentless growth of data in financial markets has boosted the demand for more advanced analytical tools to facilitate and improve financial planning. The ability to constructively use this data is limited for managers and investors without the proper theoretical support. Within this context, there is an unmet demand for combining analytical finance methods with business analytics topics to inform better investment decisions. Advancement in Business Analytics Tools for Higher Financial Performance explores the financial applications of business analytics tools that can help financial managers and investors to better understand financial theory and improve institutional investment practices. This book explores the value extraction process using more accurate financial data via business analytical tools to help investors and portfolio managers develop more modern financial planning processes. Covering topics such as financial markets, investment analysis, and statistical tools, this book is ideal for accountants, data analysts, researchers, students, business professionals, academicians, and more.

This is an open access book. We are pleased to announce our Springer International Conference on Advances in Nano-Neuro-Bio-Quantum (I-CAN – 2023) which will be a unique conference where we will connect Biological Function through Computational sciences to the world of integrated quantum physics, chemistry, biology, medicine and therapeutics. The quantum science is seeking insights in Bioinformatics through quantum computing which again is an interdisciplinary filed linking quantum physics, chemistry and biology with computer science. Quantum computers achieve unprecedented calculating capabilities by harnessing the bizarre properties of matter on the subatomic scale, where electrons exist as clouds of probability and pairs of entangled particles can interact instantaneously, irrespective of their distance apart. But how far are we from fully realizing this new class of computers? What are its prospects to advance the study of artificial intelligence? And, when, if ever, will psychological scientists be able to write programs that unlock some of the secrets of human cognition? For now, a daunting list of technological innovations stands in the way of answering these questions. We can, however, take a glimpse at the current frontier of quantum computing and consider the technological gaps that remain. This science along with traditional Indian sciences coupled with big data and bioinformatics aims to unfold the complex relationship between genotype and phenotype on a global (genome-wide) scale to different biological processes. Quantum neurobiology is a concept to which we are not yet fully accustomed to: it refers to a narrow field of the operation of quantum physics in the nervous system such as the emergence of higher cognitive functions like consciousness, memory, internal experiences, and the processes of choice and decision-making which are products of the warm-wet-noisy brain. According to quantum neurobiology, quantum physics is involved in biological processes, and consciousness, memory, internal experiences, and the processes of choice and decision-making, which are the products of the warm-wet-noisy brain, may be the result of the operations of quantum physics.

Today's supply chains are becoming more complex and interconnected. As a result, traditional optimization engines struggle to cope with the increasing demands for real-time order fulfillment and inventory management. With the expansion and diversification of supply chain networks, these engines require additional support to handle the growing complexity effectively. This poses a significant challenge for supply chain professionals who must find efficient and cost-effective solutions to streamline their operations and promptly meet customer demands. Quantum Computing and Supply Chain Management: A New Era of Optimization offers a transformative solution to these challenges. By harnessing the power of quantum computing, this book explores how supply chain planners can overcome the limitations of traditional optimization engines. Quantum computing's ability to process vast amounts of data from IoT sensors in real time can revolutionize inventory management, resource allocation, and logistics within the supply chain. It provides a theoretical framework and practical examples to illustrate how quantum algorithms can enhance transparency, optimize dynamic inventory allocation, and improve supply chain resilience.
