Trees are natural assets that play a vital role in the environment and living things on earth. Every tree has its own values, importance and benefits that can make a huge impact, especially in terms of enhancing the urban environment. Thus, the Tree Preservation Order (TPO) has been introduced all over the world, including Malaysia, to protect the

Horseshoe crab is one of the oldest existing living fossils comprising four main species today. Of these, Limulus Polyphemus is found in North America and the other three species, Tachypleus tridentatus, Tachypleus gigas and Carcinoscorpius rotundicauda are found in Southeast Asia. Horseshoe crabs play important roles in the regulation of the coast

Open space policy is set up with the intention to preserve open spaces for general public use. It was found that Sir Raymond Unwin was the first person to propose a space standard for the allocation of open spaces in London at the end of the 19th century. The standard developed by Unwin concentrated more on the suitable percentage of land units (op

Recent studies suggested cemetery to be a dual function to accommodate the needs of open spaces that are gradually diminishing. In Malaysia, the Planning Guidelines for Muslim and Non-Muslim Cemetery need to be referred in developing a burial site because a cemetery is an important social infrastructure in the same way to a recreational park. The f

This project of Development Action Plan was carried out in a special royal town of Bandar Maharani, Johor. It is a historic town and the capital of Muar District, Johor. Though there are many potentials to be further enhanced, several issues need to be resolved for better environmental quality. The suggested development approach relates to its phys

Anisometropia relates to the differences in refractive power between both eyes. Hence, anisometropia is expected to have deleterious effects on visual functions due to dissimilar retinal images formed on both eyes. This study explored the outcome of induced blur in terms of a refractive defocus on visual functions. Imposing different levels of blur

Following the activities of a tyre recycling company in Johor, Malaysia, over 2000 people fell sick and 111 schools were shut when toxic substances were released into the Sungai Kim Kim, a river in Pasir Gudang. This paper examines the relevance of corporate environmental responsibility (CER) policy framework in ensuring constant environmental sust

Pair programming is a technique which is introduced for helping programmers to develop high quality codes. Beside technical aspects, collaboration and working in team are the important skills needed in practicing the technique. These skills are essential to be instilled among our engineering students. Pair programming (known as PP) is one of Agile
