The extensive experience brought by IBM to core banking transformation indicates that the most successful transformation approach is a progressive one in which modernization is a process that incorporates flexibility and business acumen, and can adapt as requirements change. Creating a componentized architecture that separates key constructs and their assets from the core transaction engine is a critical factor in achieving a successful transformation. Such a scenario makes the architecture the central concern and allows a bank to benefit from the necessary flexibility and efficiency. After the core architecture is established, the bank can address each requirement and modification on a case-by-case basis by choosing from custom and packaged options. Further, the core transformation method outlined in this IBM® RedguideTM publication allows a bank to make deployment decisions based purely on business benefits by using a progressive program that delivers value at each step of the process, and every step can be tailored to keep pace as needs and requirements change. Finally, this method ensures that the overall transformation process remains in line with evolving business objectives.

This edited book on Research Methodology is tailored for postgraduate studies in Social and Behavioral Sciences, designed to benefit research scholars across universities, colleges, and research institutes in related disciplines. Emphasizing the value of formative assessment, we view it as a pivotal tool to aid and empower students in their learning journeys. In fields like sociology, political science, library science, home science, education, and management, research methods and procedures exhibit notable similarities, particularly in areas involving researcher-led interviews with people. Agricultural extension research methods represent a significant non-formal educational system globally, focused on transferring knowledge and research outcomes to farmers, alongside potential services for farm families, rural youth, and the development of rural community resources. The perspective on agricultural development has evolved significantly, coinciding with reduced governmental involvement in many societies and the increased roles of private enterprise and non-governmental organizations. Economic liberalization has opened new doors for farmers but has also heightened competition, making it challenging to predict future trends and provide definitive guidance to farmers. Addressing agricultural and rural development challenges in developing countries necessitates a sufficient number of well-trained and skilled professionals. Effective problem-solving for farmers relies on extension workers and agricultural graduates possessing broad knowledge of extension teaching methods and technologies. This book consolidates comprehensive information on research methods in extension education to support practitioners in the field.
