Honey is characterized as a natural and raw foodstuff that can be consumed not only as a sweetener but also as medicine due to its therapeutic impact on human health. It is prone to adulterants caused by humans that manipulate the quality of honey. Although honey consumption has remarkably increased in the last few years all around the world, the s

This chapter aims to assess the perceptions of SME on their own training needs by measuring whether gaps exist between the perceived state of train-ing (the current situation) and the perceived future situation. Additionally, this chapter also identifies the knowledge needed to enter the global market. Data were collected from 374 SMEs by using que

There is no denying the fact that every human who lived long, will reach a certain point of being weak and feeble, with all physical & mental attributes weakens. No matter how hard they try to discover methods to extend their lifetime, it is still inevitable. Allah stresses this fact of life cycle briefly in the Qur'an, such predetermined c

Toward the development of colloidal systems that can enhance transdermal permeation of hydrophilic actives, a material combining the non‐toxic of dextran with alkylglycerols permeation enhancing property has been designed. To this purpose, a range of amphiphilic butylglyceryl dextrans (DEX‐OX4) was synthesized via modification with n‐butylgly

Multiuser superposition transmission (MUST) provides the flexibility of using the same radio resources for two users with varying distance from the serving base station. This article presents a performance evaluation of MUST using three waveforms; namely: cyclic prefix orthogonal frequency division multiple access (CP-OFDM), and two newly proposed

RF energy harvesting systems are enabling new evolution towards charging low energy wireless devices, especially, Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN). This evolution is sparked by the development of low energy Micro-Controller Units (MCU). This article presents a practical Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) RF energy-harvesting platform for WSN. The

Combating Pressure Ulcer (PU) prevalence have proven to be time and cost-intensive. Higher risk of morbidity is seen from slight negligence with immobilized subjects. Best PU prevention mostly revolves around constant pressure unloading once above 32mmHg which is detrimental on the blood capillaries and surrounding tissues. Thus, real-time pressure

Malaysia is one of the countries facing frequent flash flood problems in the urban area due to city expansion and rapid development, poor drainage system and the natural system. There is a dire need for all relevant agencies to adopt new strategies to reduce the frequencies of flash floods that are plaguing the fully developed river basins, such as

The performance of a crop canopy sensor measuring crop response to nitrogen variation of a local paddy variety, Siraj 297, was evaluated. Data for various crop parameters was taken before every fertilizer treatment application. The results show that the sensor was not able to distinguish the crop response to different fertilizer treatments in the e
