This study aims to introduce the application of artificial intelligence in the area of Islamic finance by examining the dynamic changes of gross domestic product (GDP) under fully markup-based financing. The application of artificial intelligence using agent-based computational model (ABM) is employed to conduct the simulation. The simulation resul

Iron and steel industry is one of the highest carbon dioxide emissions contributors in global carbon dioxide emissions especially in sintering process. In order to reduce pollutant emissions from iron and steel industry, biomass has been widely proposed as an alternative cleaner and renewable fuel. In the iron sintering, it is desirable to substitu

Financial ethics emphasises the importance of developing and sustaining ethics in financial transactions. The term “financial ethics” can be understood as ethics as it is applies to ethical and moral issues in finance. In the context of Islamic finance, Islamic financial institutions that are governed by the principle of the sharī‘ah, are ex

Male-to-female transgenders are discriminated in Malaysia due to their gender expression, their involvement in the sex trade, and the high prevalence of HIV infection in this community. They are burdened by many health issues including HIV and sexually transmitted diseases, psychiatric problems, substance abuse, and complications resulting from fem

Today, the tremendous possibilities that arise with scientific advancements in medicine, biotechnology, and affiliated sciences are distinct and clear. And so are the abuses, negative implications, and ethical dilemmas that arise with such revolutionary technology. As a civilized global society, it is our responsibility to ensure that such achievem

Mining industry plays an important role in the economic development of Malaysia. However, uncontrolled mining activities have caused serious environmental impacts. In the recent case of bauxite mining in Kuantan, state of Pahang, fifteen kilometres of Pahang’s coastline were stained with red arsenic particles and inflicted heavy metal pollution w

This paper discussed the pattern symmetry of a two-arm Archimedean spiral antenna which is designed to operate over the Ultra-Wide band (UWB) frequency range of 3.1 GHz to 10.6 GHz. The geometrical design of the spiral antenna is simulated and executed using CST Microwave Studio (CST MWS) software. The simulated radiation performances such as radia

This paper proposes a new pneumatic mechanism for lime dosage in water treatment application. Conventionally, current water treatment system technologies utilising pump system, which requires scheduling maintenance of operation to avoid choke problem due to scaling development. The choke formation depends on the lime dosage concentration, which wil

This paper provides a study on passive aeroelastic control optimization, by means of aeroelastic tailoring, of a composite supersonic wing equipped with external stores. The objective of the optimization is to minimize wing weight by considering the aeroelastic flutter and divergence instability speeds as constraints at several flight altitudes. Th

Managers are the key informants in the information system (IS) success measurements. In fact, besides the determinant agents are rarely involved in the assessments, most of the measurements are also often performed by the technical stakeholders of the systems. Therefore, the results may questionable. This study was carried to explain the factors th
