    "The literal definition of Revenue can be described as a: yield from property or in-vestment; income. All the income is produced by a particular source. While assur-

    ance is: a statement or indication that inspires confidence. It provides freedom

    from doubt and certainty in business. Combining these two terms to yield a literalmeaning for revenue assurance we have an idea that it means making sure that

    the income produced by the source has no leakages.

    1876 - Edison invents the electric motor and the phonograph.

    1890 - Herman Hollerith gets a contract for processing the 1900 census data using punched cards. Hfirm was eventually named IBM in 1924.

    1893 - An early form of broadcasting was started in Budapest over 220 miles of telephone wires servin6000 subscribers who could listen at regular schedules to music, news, stock market prices, poetryreadings and lectures.

    1906 - Lee deforest invents the vacuum tube.

    1910 - Peter DeBye in Holland, develops theory for optical waveguides. He was a few years ahead ofhis time.

    mixers, amplifiers and other electronic devices should be covered.

    3. Any important tips for Interview?

    Confidence is the most important tip. but do not be over confident. you should

    have your thesis with you,as it will motivate the interviewer to ask the ques-
