The switchable multiwavelength fiber laser (SMWLSs) using AWG and broadband FBG with tuning range 11.7 nm and 0.75 nm spacing are demonstrated. The switchable lasers for every channel shows flatness output power with variation 3.7 dBm and peak power around 6.1 dBm. The side mode suppression ratio (SMSR) of the laser is significantly improved for ev

This book discusses the policies of several core states of the Arab regional system, Syria, Egypt and Saudi Arabia, during 2001 and 2005, that were spurred by the demands and suggestions emphasized in the political discourse of George W. Bush, the President of the United States during the period of the investigation. This study attempts to explain

The research explores the human-related problems encountered in the implementation of quality management in building construction projects in the context of Malaysian construction industry. Survey samples were drawn from the construction organizations of G5, G6, and G7 registered with the Construction Industry Development Board (CIDB) Malaysia. Res

Lip 42 lipase, isolated from Bacillus sp. strain 42 was previously shown to be stable in polar organic solvent such as dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). Stabilities in different solvent compositions were studied based on 400C pre incubation in solvent, and the purified lipase was shown to retain at least 100% residual activity in up to 45% v/v DMSO. In 60

System identification in vibrating environments has been a matter of concern for researchers in many disciplines of science and engineering. In this paper, a sound approach for a Twin Rotor Multi-input Multi-Output System (TRMS) parametric modeling is proposed based on dynamic spread factor particle swarm optimization. Particle swarm optimization (

A retrospective study was conducted to investigate 183 serologically-confirmed cases of dengue fever (DF) admitted from October 2004 to March 2005 in a large hospital in Pahang. Clinical and laboratory features, progress and outcome of these patients were analysed in order to identify risk factors associated with development of dengue haemorrhagic

The concern for and the debate on “objectivity” in the scientific study of religions led scholars to advocate two major approaches known as “History of Religion” and “Phenomenology of Religion.” Both approaches are claimed to be “descriptive” and “value-free” as they stringently enforce the principle of epochê or distanciation

In this paper, a computation method is proposed using fully linguistic variables in conflicting bifuzzy sets. The linguistic terms was defined briefly associated with the triangular fuzzy number and labeling system in early stages. Then, the conflicting negation operator was introduced and employs the bifuzzy approaches to derive the linguistic equ

A Genetic Algorithm (GA) that is going to be a part of a system for obtaining optimum sensor measurements for a specific process. Most parts in the design accomplished using Very High Speed Integrated Circuit Hardware Description Language (VHDL), then simulated and verified using Design Architect (DA) and ModelSim CAD tools. This paper consists of
