This paper discusses about the design of a Situation Awareness (SA) system to support vessel crews and control room operators in improving the decision making process. The architecture of the system is ontology based. The vessel crews and control room operators may face a loss of SA. They may have limited cognitive abilities which make it difficult

Plants and algae contain novel biocompounds with therapeutic potentials. These compounds are either embedded within the cell wall matrix or bonded with polymers at cell cytoplasm, which hinders release of bioactive compounds during extraction. Enzymatic hydrolysis of cell wall and cytoplasm polymers enhances the release of biocompounds while preser

Abstract: The purpose of this research is to study the factors that influence the use of online banking services among consumers in the Klang Valley. This research is conducted using the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) with the extension of including the elements of trust and perceived risks as the significant predictors in influencing the adopti

Background: Despite clinical guidelines that recommend routine nutrition screening of older patients, this does not generally occur in the Australian general practice setting. This study aimed to identify perceived barriers and opportunities to implementing nutrition screening of older people in general practice. Methods: Twenty-five in-depth indiv

The visual acuity and visual axis of juvenile brown-marbled grouper, Epinephelus fuscoguttatus were determined to get the understanding of their vision in order to develop a demand feeding system. Three juveniles were anaesthetised with MS222 and fixed in Bouin’s solution. The left retina of each juvenile was cut into nine regions – the dorso-n
