Participating in co-curricular activities (CCAs) can benefit students in a number of ways and help to shape them into a well-rounded individual and seem more student-centered than the regular classes. Likewise in a sense, co-curricular activities prepare students to practice for the future opportunities in case of working in team, to exercise leade

Ultra wideband (UWB) chipless RFID tag of microwave band is used to study the location of an object. Two microwave antennas for narrow bandwidth beam used for scanning purpose. The antennas are mounted on two digital stepper motor driven systems. The location of the tagged object is measured from the angular position of the antennas. A squire space

E very year all over the world many lives and properties are lost due to many geological catastrophes like, landslide or landslip. Manual and electronic monitoring systems are used for predicting the landslide. The m anual monitoring syst em is laborious and not practical. And most of the electronic systems are complex and expensive. A wireless sen

Scour is the erosion of stream bed or bank material from bridge foundations due to flowing of water. Data logging from sens or and electronic communication systems can mo nitor scour in real - time to ensu re the integrity of bridge structure. A number of parameters are associated with scour, thus different types of sensor are required to measure t

Medical Negligence in Malaysia: Cases and Commentary, first published in 2009, was the first book containing cases and commentaries of medical negligence in Malaysia, comprising the case law from 1950s to 2009. This Second Edition continues to be the lead reference on medical negligence case law in Malaysia, providing a useful compilation of local

The eighteenth century scholar of Malay–Arab descent Shaykh Abd al-Samad al-Palimbani wrote a seminal Malay-Jawi text entitled Siyar al-Salikin ila Ibadat Rabb al-Alamin, being a translation-cum-commentary on the Mukhtasar Ihya Ulum al-Din of Abu Hamid al-Ghazali. Abd al-Samad’s Siyar exercised a great impact on Malay religious life and thought

The oil palm industry is known as the primary producer of biomass in Malaysia. The massive production of oil palm biomass has resulted in a significant waste disposal problem.This study aims to assess the potential of waste derived from oil palm plantationsand processing mills to be transformed into value-added products for various applications. Th

Malaysia held its 13th general election on May 5, 2013 which was a contest between two coalitions, the ruling Barisan Nasional (BN) and the opposition Pakatan Rakyat (PR). The latter's expectations for an outright win did not materialise. The election results have shown a rather status quo with minor losses and gains for the two coalitions. Thi

In today’s knowledge-based society, research and innovations play a critical role in social and economic transformation. However, the higher education institutions (HEIs), which are the main hubs for knowledge generation, usually produce basic research, yet innovations are mainly carried out by the industry. Therefore, this study explores the ide

A design procedure of CMOS integrated crystal oscillator for 13.56 MHz RFID is described in detail by using mathematical and Mentor Graphics VLSI design tools ADK-3. The system is designed by using CMOS 0.18 µm foundry rules and Level-3 transistor model. The frequency stability of the oscillator is created by using piezoelectric crystal. The desig
