This study investigated the practice of autonomy in Arabic language learning among Arabic language learners at the International Islamic University Malaysia. In other words they have the capabilities to take charge of their own learning except in several items especially when it comes to self-productive activities such as: communication, writing an

Intelligent mobile phone jammer is a device used to jam unathorized cellular phone while permitting authorized cellular phone to operate and control the usage of mobile phone in specific environment.

Learners’ beliefs and perceptions play an important role in language learning. This paper describes a study investigating the perceptions of good as well as poor Malay speakers of Arabic regarding the Arabic language, and their views on the necessary skills and competencies to become good speakers of Arabic. It highlights the similarities and dif

In the aeronautical field, sandwich structures are widely used for secondary structures like flaps or landing gear doors. The modeling of low velocity/low energy impact, which can lead to a decrease of the structure strength by 50%, remains a designer’s main problem. Since this type of impact has the same effect as quasi-static indentation, the s

Mathematics is a core subject for foundation students who will be taking up engineering, pharmacy, medicine and architecture. Therefore, it is crucial that a proper and effective method of teaching is adapted in order to build their understanding in mathematics. This paper discusses types of activities given based on problem based learning (PBL). 4

Previous work suggests a general reduction in complexity with aging, referred to as the aging-complexity theory. Fractal dimension (FD) of the vessels in the retina is a global measure of the complexity of the vasculature. However, earlier works did not find any correlation between aging and FD of the retinal vasculature, in contrast to the finding

To obtain precise calibre measurements, there are two general approaches: segment the vessels and measure the diameter, and to measure the diameter from the greyscale images. While there is a claim that vessel segmentation does not solve diameter measurement problems it has not been proven experimentally. The aim of this work is two-fold: first, to

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the clinical usefulness of CT Colonography after an incomplete or failed colonoscopy. MATERIALS AND METHODS After incomplete or failed colonoscopy, seventeen patients underwent CT Colonography before and after intravenous injection of iodinated contrast agent, in supine and prone positions. Two-dimensional multiplanar reformat

Video analysis of the dynamics of the tear meniscus height (TMH) have been used in the diagnosis of dry eye. However, the existing techniques require substantial manual intervention. This research work aims to automate the process of estimating the change in the inferior TMH without manual intervention.Automated Inferior Tear Meniscus Height Measur
