Throughout the history of Islamic Civilisation, many Muslim intellectuals have been a prey of the doctrines and principles propagated by the followers of different mystical orders in general, and the BektÉshÊ Order in particular. The BektÉshÊ Order, which can be categorised as a mystical order deviating from the core of Islamic teachings, has t

Limb loss is a growing problem in Malaysia and the rest of the world due to the increasing number of industrial accidents, diseases and armed conflicts. After a tragic incident resulting in an amputation or paralysis, the disabled individual needs to be assisted with all possible technological means to improve his quality of life. A cybernetic pros

High quality ZnO thin films are required to produce CMOS SAW resonators operating with low losses and high Q. This work intends to develop high performance CMOS SAW resonators through optimization of both the quality of the ZnO and the design of the SAW resonator. Zinc oxide was chosen for this work as the piezoelectric material due to its superior

Normally, humans were born with five fingers connected to each of the hands. These fingers have their own specific role that contributes to different hand functions. Among the five fingers, the thumb plays the most special function as an anchor to many of hand activities such as turning a key, gripping a ball and holding a spoon for eating. As a re

In this paper, a person identification mechanism implemented with Cardioid based graph using electrocardiogram (ECG) is presented. Cardioid based graph has given a reasonably good classification accuracy in terms of differentiating between individuals. However, the current feature extraction method using Euclidean distance could be further improved

This paper demonstrates subject recognition using electrocardiogram (ECG) signal in different physiological conditions. A total of 30 subjects used in this study were obtained from a non-invasive measurement called the Revitus ECG module. Each subject performed six physiological activities which are walking, going upstairs, going downstairs, natura

Upper limb amputation that includes finger amputation is increasing every year due to accidents, diseases and congenital amputation. The loss of finger especially thumb could limit the proper hand functions and thus affect human daily activities. As a solution, a prosthetic thumb can be worn as a replacement to the real thumb. Natural controlled of

The Malaysian Federal Constitution provides for fundamental liberties. However, taking into account that the Constitution was proclaimed in the environment where there was communist insurgencies and a nascent pluralist society, the fundamental liberties were laden with exceptions including on security and public order. The challenge for the constit

Malaysia Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) is a body established under the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission Act 1988, among others, to regulate all matters relating to communications and multimedia activities. Since it has a central role in regulating the internet, there is a need to examine the extent of power of th

Decellularized tissues and organs have been intensively studied in order to use them as a scaffold for proliferation of recipient cells in tissue engineering/regenerative medicine applications. We established a fast and effective method for tissue decellularization by way of shaking a tissue in a detergent at 300 rpm. In addition, we developed a ri
