We propose and test a new method of multiexponential transient signal analysis. The method based on cepstral deconvolution is fast and computationally inexpensive. The multiexponential signal is initially converted to a deconvolution model using Gardners' transformation after which the proposed method is used to deconvolve the data. Simulation

In this study, a new comparative study of video compression techniques was presented. Due to the rapid developments in internet technology and computers, popularity of video streaming applications is rapidly growing. Therefore today, storing and transmitting uncompressed raw video requires large storage space and network bandwidth. Special algorith

With the increasing and continuous use of digital communications on the internet in recent times, security is becoming more and more relevant and important. However, special and reliable security is required for the many digital applications available such as video conferencing, digital television and mobile TV. The classical techniques of data sec

This book is primarily meant for students studying the law of contract in Malaysia. It also caters to students of law, accountancy, engineering and business administration in helping them understand the basic principles of the law of contract. The provisions of the Contracts Act 1950 are well explained along with illustrated examples of contractual

Different religion perceives Truth differently and conceptions of that Truth may even be tangential, let alone identical. Islam is both exclusive and inclusive. As far as theological or creedal matters are concern, Islam is exclusive. The creedal matters pertaining to question of God, His nature or attributes, Muslims should not compromise with con

Purpose – This research paper aims to explore the perceptions of Muslim consumers of the degree of compliance of Malaysian businesses to Islamic marketing practices and promotional strategies. Design/methodology/approach – The perceptions of the Muslim consumers were examined by distributing a self-administered survey questionnaire to a sample

This case study illustrates the design of a new performance measurement and management system for a Malaysian international higher learning institution (HLI). The case describes the processes involved in the design and implementation of a central system and the cascading to all kulliyyahs , centres, divisions, and institutes. It explores the reason

Being able to drive a car is a major step towards independence for people with disabilities, but the conventional driving system installed in a car is not equipped with the utility for the disabled driver to drive the vehicle. Thus this paper presents the development of a new driving system for a disabled driver. In this work modification was made

The Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) test has been a long standing test method to quantify the amount of biodegradable organic matter present in a water sample. The test is typically conducted over a 5-day period (BOD5), with the sample being incubated at 20°C. It has been a long standing assumption that over the 5-day period, most of the organic s

In this paper, a virtual wheelchair (WC) model is developed within Visual Nastran (VN) software environment where the model is further linked with Matlab/Simulink for control purposes. The goal is to have stable two-wheeled WC by transforming the two front wheels (caster) to the upright position. Theoretically, when the two big wheels are fed by th
