Human activity recognition (HAR) is the basis for many real world applications concerning health care, sports and gaming industry. Different methodological perspectives have been proposed to perform HAR. One appealing methodology is to take an advantage of data that are collected from inertial sensors which are embedded in the individual's smar

Fat, oil and grease (FOG) deposition is one of the major problems that harm the environment and cause dissatisfaction for human. Uncontrolled and un-pre-treated FOG removal from the kitchen could lead to its accumulation in the piping system. Problems include the interference of fat with the aerobic microorganisms that are responsible in treating t

The aim of this study is to explore the factors which are affecting Muslim consumers‟ perception towards tax deduction through zakat in Malaysia. A conceptual framework was drawn based on the literature. Six factors were extracted through principal component analysis and SEM was run to test the hypotheses. This research found that halal-haram asp

LTE is expected to be the dominant system used by operators in these years due to its promising solutions for achieving high capacity and data rate. However, LTE packet scheduling and distributing resources among users is still the main challenge due to unfairness and low performance which occur when allocating resources to users. In this paper, th

This paper introduces a smartphone-based classification system for an indoor environment of a walking person. The system relies only on smartphone inertial data and it can be considered as a smartphone-based aiding system for an indoor navigation. In addition, it does not need pre-installing of wireless network in the environment or heavily tuning

Machining at high cutting speeds produces higher temperatures in the cutting zone. These temperatures affect the surface quality and flank wear progress. Therefore, determining the optimum cutting levels to achieve the minimum surface roughness and flank wear is an important for it is economical and mechanical issues. This paper presents the optimi

High speed turning (HST) is an advanced machining process that uses higher cutting speeds than those used in conventional machining. HST enables manufacturers to shorten machining times. Therefore, this approach should be followed and justified by economic study. One of the most effective tools for economic study is by developing a target-cost mode

One of the significant characteristics in machining process is final quality of surface. The best measurement for this quality is the surface roughness. Therefore, estimating the surface roughness before the machining is a serious matter. The aim of this research is to estimate and simulate the average surface roughness (Ra) in high speed end milli

Selecting the cutting conditions to optimize the economics of machining process as assessed by energy machining cost is essential. The aim of this research is to determine the optimum cutting parameters that minimize the energy cost needed for removing one cubic centimetre of material in High Speed Hard Turning (HSHT) process. To achieve that, a se

Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine the level of workload among pharmacy academicians working in public and private sector universities in India. The study also aimed to assess the satisfaction of academicians towards their workload. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted for a period of 2 months among pharma
