Identifying the sources of macroeconomic fluctuations is critical to formulating macroeconomic policies. This paper investigates the sources of macroeconomic fluctuations in Malaysia based on the traditional Keynesian framework, using both the standard VAR and structural VAR methods. The joint behavior of the key macroeconomic variables in Malaysia

Advancements in biometrics-based authentication have led to its increasing prominence and are being incorporated into everyday tasks. Existing vehicle security systems rely currently on electronic alarm or smart card systems. A biometric driver recognition system utilizing driving behavior signals can be incorporated into existing vehicle security

We investigate the amplitude flatness of Rayleigh-assisted Brillouin-Raman comb laser in a linear cavity in which feedbacks are formed by high-reflectivity mirror. The optimization of Brillouin pump power and wavelength is very crucial in order to obtain a uniform power level between Stokes lines. The Brillouin pump must have a relatively large pow

Performance statistics of WLANs in published literatures are limited only to homogeneous traffic. However, mixed traffic scenario is prevailing in WLANs. This paper is an effort to characterize WLANs behaviour in transmitting mixed traffic. OPNET was used to simulate a typical WLANs scenario. It was found that tuning the CFP and superframe size dyn

—Optical networks are high capacity networks that meet the rapidly growing demand for bandwidth in the terrestrial telecommunications industry. This paper studies and evaluates single- mode and multimode fiber transmission by varying the distance. It focuses on their performance in LAN environment. This is achieved by observing the pulse spreadin

Malaysian Muslim women’s writing in English is a new literary phenomenon, and hence, there is not much critical literature. This paper examines some samples of writings in English by Malaysian Muslim women. It begins by providing the background of English language and literature in Malaysia in an attempt to address the complexities of writing in

The paper presents the airflow studies due to staggered layout at proposed new terrace housing concept in Malaysia. The importance of internal airflow to thermal comfort and indoor air quality of the terrace houses is indisputable (Hui,1998). The internal airflow contributes to cool the human body through evaporation process and indoor air quality
