The International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM) has been committed to the integration of Islamic values with the modern fields of knowledge. This study attempts to investigate academics‟ perceptions of Islamization of Knowledge (IOK), examine their practices of integration in the IIUM curriculum and establish indicators to measure the integr

This paper presents a design of portable heart rate monitoring system which is part of a project called Home-smart Clinic. Home-smart Clinic is developed in order to connect medical personnel and patients remotely. Remote health monitoring system is beneficial to the patients and society where the implementation of such system will save hospital bi

This paper presenting a study on hybrid electric vehicle (HEV), using backward facing approach simulation or QSS approach and fuzzy logic power management controller for HEV. The software being used for modelling of HEV and fuzzy logic power management controller is MATLAB/Simulink. A comparison study was completed to investigate fuzzy logic power

Coating possesses superior wear resistance which makes the material suitable for components subjected to dynamic applications under sever wearing condition and high temperature applications. In this study, TiC coating layer was synthesized by preplacing a 1 mg/mm2 of fine size (~40 μm) TiC powder on the surface of AISI 4340 steel. The composite la

This paper presents the effect of electron beam radiation on water absorption of kenaf-glass (KG) mat reinforced unsaturated polyester (UPE) hybrid composite which has been compounded using sheet molding compound (SMC) process. Hybrid synthetic and natural fiber composite materials are attractive structural materials because of natural fibers resou

Ceramic composites consist of zirconia toughened alumina (ZTA) with TiO2 as additive was fabricated via solid state sintering route. Numerous studies have indicated that TiO2 can be used as sintering additives for Al2O3 and the ability of microstructural control introduce by TIO2. The Vickers hardness of the obtained ZTA-TiO2 was evaluated as a fun

The government of Nigeria and the state government of Niger in particular, are committed to the development of housing, especially for the low-income group in the state. The housing estates as popularly called have housed many families of the low-income group in the state, however, till to date no effort have been made to understand the perception

Most web-based physical activity interventions were built based on the principles of universal design and may have overlooked age-related impair- ments experienced by older adult. Thus, it is intriguing to know how successful these web-based interventions are in enhancing older adult’s physical activity level despite of these shortcomings. The ob

The lack of waste management strategies in tourism area will lead to undesirable environmental quality. This will gives bad perceptions towards the tourist. Hence, the implementation of carrying capacity concept is an effort to preserve the tourism area as a sustainable tourist destination as well as maintaining its natural value. Based on existing
