This chapter aims to highlight quantum physics and its major theories such as the infinitely extended particles. In fact, Classical mechanics functions very well for large objects that are moving much slower than the velocity of light. Nonetheless, once objects start to move very fast, we need to modify Newton's equations by relativistic equati

A brief study on the relationships between leadership and Islamic management (independent variables) and quality education (dependent variable). The study used quantitative approach namely descriptive statistics and factor analysis. Recommendation for future and in depth research were also presented.

This study examines the level of women participation on the boards of Malaysian listed companies, and examines the association between women participation on the board and firm performance. We use normalized Tobin’s q and return on assets (ROA) to measure firm performance. An analysis of 841 companies in 2008 shows that 362 (43 percent) of the bo

This study attempts to explicate what happened to the Malays between the turn of the 20th century and the beginning of World War II. This is important to underscore the fact that, contrary to general impressions, Islam did not hold back the progress of the Malays, and that even before World War II, major changes were taking place in Malay society.

Polymer-coated gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) with controlled size and surface chemistry were successfully synthesized and applied to tailor the structures and properties of polytriphenylamine (PTPA) and polystyrene (PS) blends. Two different polymer-coated Au NPs with sizes of 5.9 nm (Au NP-1) and 20.7 nm (Au NP-2) were designed to be thermally stabl

Background Deficiencies of micronutrients can affect the growth and development of children. There is increasing evidence of vitamin D deficiency world-wide resulting in nutritional rickets in children and osteoporosis in adulthood. Data on the micronutrient status of children in Malaysia is limited. The aim of this study was to determine the anthr

Brain-computer interface (BCI) is linking the brain activity to computer, which allows a person to control devices directly with his brain waves and without any use of his muscles. Recent advances in real-time signal processing have made BCI a feasible alternative for controlling robot and for communication as well. Controlling devices using BCI is

This paper presents the classification of EEG correlates on emotion using features extracted by Gaussian mixtures of EEG spectrogram. This method is compared with three feature extraction methods based on fractal dimension of EEG signal including Higuchi, Minkowski Bouligand, and Fractional Brownian motion. The K nearest neighbor and Support Vector

In this paper, we present a detailed review on various types of SQL injection attacks, vulnerabilities, and prevention techniques. Alongside presenting our findings from the survey, we also note down future expectations and possible development of countermeasures against SQL injection attacks.A SURVEY ON SQL INJECTION: VULNERABILITIES, ATTACKS, AND

Civil structures experience vibrations due to natural dynamic forces such as earthquakes and wind loads. Often, mass-spring system is used to reduce such vibrations. The mass-spring system can either serve as absorbers or dampers. Usually, such system is tuned to absorb or damp a single frequency of excitation or resonance frequency respectively. H
