Acknowledging the progressive globalisation trend within the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry, transdisciplinary education and training is now widely acknowledged as being one of the key factors for leveraging AEC organisational success. Conventional AEC education and training delivery approaches therefore need a paradigm

This research investigates the use of mobile technology namely the smart hand phone in developing instructional video project for language learning. The purpose of this study is to analyse students’ creativity and cognitive engagement when developing instructional video through the use of smart hand phone. Firstly, the research attempts to addres

Recently there have been numerous studies exploring the benefits of the coalition formation in a cognitive radio network and it has been shown that coalition formation tends to improve the performance of cognitive radios. In this paper, we use the concepts from matching theory to form coalitions among cognitive radio users for cooperative spectrum

The manufacturing of furniture using rattan is becoming common nowadays, and creates high amount of waste that can be value-added into binderless particleboards (BPB). In order to determine the suitability of the rattan waste for production of BPB, characterization of rattan waste is executed and reported in this paper. The physical properties such

The combined effect of moisture and temperature on the bending behaviour of simply supported cross ply composite laminated shells has been investigated. A 13 term accurate higher order shear deformation theory with zigzag function is used in this analysis in which the effects of transverse shear deformation are taken into account. The results are p

The evolution of resistant microorganism towards available antibiotics has gain interest among scientists to search for more effective antimicrobial compounds. Plant is believe to have antimicrobial properties as the extract is used in food industry, pharmaceuticals and alternative medicine. The aims of this study are to isolate secondary metabolit

Rapid prototyping (RP) is one of the advanced technologies which contribute a lot of benefits in manufacturing product. Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) is one of the RP technologies that have been widely used for fabricating three dimensional products. There has been a lot of improvement and research has been done in terms of hardware and software

In this paper five scheduling algorithms were investigated and their performance was evaluated in terms of Fairness Index, Peak Throughput, Average Throughput and Edge Cell User Throughput. A system level MATLAB simulator was used. The simulation takes into account different types of traffic for several mobility scenarios and propagation channel mo

Kerajaan Malaysia dalam usaha memantapkan pentadbiran jabatan kerajaan dengan meningkatkan mutu perkhidmatan kepada para pengguna. Antaranya termasuklah pelaksanaan urus niaga secara elektronik. Hal ini dapat dibuktikan melalui kertas cadangan yang telah dikemukakan oleh Jabatan Pengarah Tanah dan Galian, Kementerian Sumber Asli dan Alam Sekitar. S

A multiwavelength generation in a random distributed feedback fiber laser based on hybrid Raman and erbium gain and a Lyot all-fiber spectral filter is demonstrated for the first time. The use of erbium-doped fiber allows a multi-wavelength generation to be achieved at lower pump powers in comparison with random fiber lasers based on Raman gain onl
