Introduction. "Waterfront‟ in the context of towns and cities deals with the areas that are in direct contact with the water bodies. Malaysia‟s Department of Drainage and Irrigation defines the waterfront development as area within 50m or two lots of building from the banks (JPS, 2003)where the water is visually noticeable. An example of an

This case study illustrates the issues related to team dynamics and why some teams fail to perform. It is the story of a motivated and competent marketing executive working in a bank, who excelled in her job until she was assigned to work in a team with two other persons. Initially the team worked well. However, when one member of the team was assi

In this study, we investigated the feeding behavior of the brown-marbled grouper, Epinephelus fuscoguttatus with light intensities ranging over eight orders of magnitude from 0 – 1000 lx to estimate the optimum light intensity for larval rearing. Artemia ingestion rates of E. fuscoguttatus of 36 days and 42 days old larvae were measured in feedin

Unforeseen attacks on ICT systems incurred billions of dollars of losses to public and private communities. The current parametric encryption algorithms suffer the unconventional and paranormal attacks. A search for a new paradigm against the unforeseen and paranormal attacks lead to an invention called Unique Class Encryption (UCE) that is based o

People with dementia brain (DBrain) have acquired global impairments of the intellect, memory and personality. In Malaysia alone there are estimated 100,000 sufferers of dementia. Presently about 26.6 million people worldwide have dementia related diseases. By 2020, this is expected to rise to 34 million and 104 million by 2050.. The development of

S. pyogenes secrete a large array of molecules that might contribute to resistance against antimicrobial peptides (AMPs). Some of these are anchored in the cell-wall by enzymes called sortases and others are released from the cell after secretion. One of the released proteins that have previously been reported to inhibit bactericidal effect of the

This paper presents a flexible monopole antenna fed by a coplanar waveguide (CPW) feeding line with a barium titanate (BaTiO3) silicon-elastomer impedance matching layer for microwave head imaging applications. The operating frequency bandwidth of the proposed antenna is 614 MHz which is from 0.475 GHz to 1.089 GHz. In biomedical microwave sensing

In the present paper we shall consider countable state p -adic Potts model on Z . A main aim is to establish the existence of the phase transition for the model. In our study, we essentially use one dimensionality of the model. The existence of the phase transition is reduced to the investigation of an infinitedimensional nonlinear equation. We

Femtocell network is a new technology that uses the advantage of an Internet backbone to enhance the cellular coverage in residential or small business areas. However, due to the expected random deployment of the femtocell access point (FAPs), there is a strong probability of interference among the femtocell nodes and between the femtocells and the

Identification of marine sand-dwelling species is important due to the toxin-producing abilities of some species that may harm human beings. In this study, sand samples were collected for 12 months at Dinawan Island, Sabah. Samples were identified using light microscopy (LM) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). Sixteen dinoflagellates species ha
