This study explores issues related to justice in the bestowal of gifts (hibah) by parents to their children. Hibah, in the current development, is practiced freely to the extent of being considered a favourite choice of transferring wealth. However, it is a potentially problematic practice because it opens up to preferential and unjust treatment. T

Agile methods are an established process for developing software nowadays. There is, however, less evidence on their usage among software practitioners in Malaysia. While the methods have become mainstream in other regions, that is not the case in this country. This paper investigates important aspects in relation to Agile usage in Malaysia. The st

A Midimew connected Mesh Network (MMN) is a MInimal DIstance MEsh with Wrap-around links network of multiple basic modules, in which the basic modules are 2D-mesh networks that are hierarchically interconnected for higher-level networks. In this paper, we present a new assignment of free links to form the higher level networks of the MMN (called HM

Midimew connected Mesh Network (MMN) is a Minimal DIstance MEsh with Wrap-around links (midimew) network. In this paper, we present the architecture of MMN and evaluate the total wire length of MMN, TESH, mesh, and torus networks. It is shown that the proposed MMN possesses simple structure and moderate wire length. The total wire length of MMN is

In this paper, we present a derivative of Midimew connected Mesh Network (MMN) by reassigning the free links for higher level interconnection for the optimum performance of the MMN; called Derived MMN (DMMN). We present the architecture of DMMN, addressing of nodes, routing of message and evaluate the static network performance. It is shown that th

Spinal epidural angiolipomas are rare benign tumors. The tumors contain both vascular and mature adipose components. Typically, they present with a progressive clinical course. Acute presentation is rare. We present a case of a fifteen-year-old girl who presented with a sudden onset of backpain followed by paraparesis with bladder and bowel inconti

A proliferating interest has been observed over the past years in the development of an accurate system for monitoring continuous human activities in the health care sectors, especially for the elderly. This paper conducts a survey of the various techniques and methods that are proposed to monitor the movements and activities of the elderly people.

Most of the existing earthquake (EQ) prediction techniques involve a combination of signal processing and geophysics techniques which are relatively complex in computation for analysis of the Earth’s electric field data. This paper proposes a relatively simpler and faster method that involves only signal processing procedures. The prediction of t

Background: Parents’ knowledge about immunization is an important predictor factor for their children’s immunization status. The aims of this study were to assess parents’ knowledge and to evaluate the effect of a short educational intervention on improving parents’ knowledge of childhood immunization. Methods: A cross-sectional study using
