This paper focuses on the photoplethysmogram (PPG) based biometric identification for twins as a substitute to the traditional methods being used nowadays. There are many researches and studies about twin recognition where some of them showed positive results. However, PPG based biometric identification for twins is under-researched. Therefore, thi

A study on this area is undoubtedly important to ascertain the level of progress achieved by each state website. Furthermore, no such study has been carried out by accessing all the states websites based on the online presence in the context of Malaysia. Hence, this study could inform the state governments on the progress deemed by their websites a

My introduction will highlight some personal reflections on my work on election campaign discourse in a non-western context within the Critical Discourse Studies (CDS) framework. I will briefly discuss some of my concerns (and confusion) while researching issues that are absent from the theoretical or analytical radar of Western scholars but import

Graphene is a promising electrode material not only due to its intrinsic properties like good electrical conductivity, high mechanical strength and high chemical stability, but also because of its high theoretical surface area of 2630 m2 g−1. In this report, the effect of CVD parameters to the growth of high quality graphene on metal substrates b

Cognitive Radio (CR) is an intelligent system for opportunistically accessing the idle resources and a solution for spectrum resources scarcity. The main purpose of this article is to analyze the performance of Energy Detection under Nakagami and Rayleigh fading channels and compare it with the case of when there is only AWGN. Probability of detect

The end of value-free economics presents a positive outlook for Islamic economics. Nonetheless, progress is only viable when this discipline has a solid scientific structure. Thus, this paper aims at highlighting the economic man imperative in projecting Islamic economics as a normal science. This paper first explores Islamic economics’ current s

Curcumin is an important molecule found in turmeric plants and has been reported to exhibit some profound anti-inflammatory activities by interacting with several important molecular targets found in the mitogenactivated protein kinase and NF-κβ pathways. As part of our continuing effort to search for new anti-inflammatory agents with better in v

Acacia polyacantha gum (APG) is a dried exudate which obtained from the stems and branches of Acacia polyacantha trees. APG is rich in soluble dietary fibers as well as organic compounds. In this study quantitation of the levels of total phenolics content (TPC) and antioxidant activities were conducted using ABTS and CUPRAC assays for APG extractio
