To strengthen competitive advantage in the market, organisations must continuously improve quality of products and services. Whether this process is termed Jidoka, Kaizen, PDSA, 5-S, Six Sigma, or JIT, the purpose is to continually improve product/serv

Wireless sensor network technology offers endless possibilities for innovative solutions for different security and intrusion detection and recognition applications. By distribut- ing multiple clusters of preconfigured wireless sensor network detection nodes, a widely monitored area can be consistently checked for intruders. These systems are simpl

The widely used CMOS Active Pixel Sensors (APS) in space imaging mission are vulnerable to radiations known as Single Event Transient (SET). This paper focus on 3T and 4T CMOS APS with technology from 130 nm scaling down to 32 nm, simulated using various Linear Energy Transfer (LET) magnitudes ranging from 3.3 to 67.7 MeV.cm2/mg. Larger transient c

Ultrasonication duration during the preparation of nanofluids has an important role on its various characteristics. Recently, the role of the surfactant is also found to be particularly significant in the properties of nanofluids. The role of ultrasonication duration and surfactant is together studied in this article on ZnO and CuO nanofluid. After

In the new era of globalization, waste disposal has turned into an immense concern among the nation. Nowadays, almost every part of the world is confronting a huge issue of improper disposal, segregation and recycling solid waste. Due to rapid growth in economy, industrialization and urbanization, there is also a rapid increase of capacity and volu

TITLE: How to Respond During an Emergency at Your Workplace: The Role of Emergency Preparedness and Response Plan Emergency Preparedness and Response Plan (EPRP) is vital in ensuring an immediate action could be taken during emergencies.

ENTRY into any educational institution is increasingly getting diverse to reflect the growing diversity of global education. There is always more than one way if diversity in education is to be celebrated, and it is not one size fits all. This is important to improve access and success, especially in addressing heterogeneous situations peculiar to

ANOTHER type of ranking has now surfaced. A new “product line” as it were, by a familiar commercial name, made (in)famous through similar activity based prominently on research and publication. The latter is now losing “steam” as a quality concept to define what education is all about “beyond the teaching and research focus of conventiona

Raja Permaisuri Agong was appointed the university’s constitutional head (equivalent to the chancellor of a local university). The IIUM community is most fortunate to be reminded that “humility” is the hallmark of education in the Garden of Knowledge and Virtue. Therein humility is strongly advocated as the sign of a truly educated person.Sou

What has Si Tanggang got to do with the place? What was he doing there? Well, it all started with a campus where Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM) started its “off shore” medical campus in Belagavi (a city in the southwest Indian state of Karnataka), in partnership with the local Karnataka Lingayat Education (KLE) University there a decade ago in
