Design/methodology/approach – Female students from the hostels of International Islamic University, Malaysia (IIUM), Kuantan Campus and NWFP, Agricultural University Peshawar, Pakistan were assessed for ene

Voluntary Sustainability Disclosure, Revenue, and Shareholders Wealth- a Perspective from Singaporean Companies
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

There is an unprecedented growth among wide range of stakeholder’s attention to environmental and social performance, and disclosure by companies. People within a community are worried about natural resources, air and water pollution, as well as low income-tier group of the community. Companies started to perform in a way to minimize their negati

Evaluating the Effectiveness of time-Domain Features for Motor Imagery Movements Using Svm
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Motor imagery electroencephalogram signals are the only bio-signals that enable locked-in patients, who have lost control over every motor output, to communicate with and control their surroundings. Brain Machine Interface is collaboration between a human and machines, which translates brain waves to desired, understandable commands for a machine.

Development of an Economical Lapping Process
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The manufacturing of silicon wafers in particular involves numerous processes such as grinding, lapping, and polishing of large diameter wafers employing expensive equipment in order to produce the required optical quality and damage-free surfaces. In the finishing of thin silicon chips for making IC chips especially, it is difficult to lap and pol

Preliminary Investigation Into Surface Finish and Damage When Grinding Silicon Carbide
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This research project was undertaken to study and assess the surface finish and integrity of the silicon carbide (SiC) work piece and tool wear after the machining process, using 2mm-diameter diamond coated end mills. In this experimental research, independent machining parameters considered are depth of cut 10-50um, feed rate 6-14mm/min and the sp

Emergence of Antibiotic Resistant Bacteria from Coastal Environment - a Review
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

1. Introduction Antibiotic resistance in microbes is a growing issue of human health. The extraordinary ability of microbes to develop resistance to various antibiotics attracted evolutionary scientists and environmental biologists in recent years. Historically, the use of antimicrobial agents started in 1904 with the discovery of Tripan red by Ehr

Assessing the Needs for Quality Neighbourhood Parks

The understanding of needs aspect is important. A lot of people share common needs, but by identifying each person’s unique needs will help answer why people use a particular space in the first place. Various studies also confirms the link between high quality green spaces with the increased property value; benefits in improving the image of an a

An Efficient Detection Model of Selective Forwarding Attacks in Wireless Mesh Networks
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Wireless communications technologies have seen a great degree of advancements and sophistication in the past decade. Different research works have tried to solve various issues related to different wireless Ad hoc networks, many of which are yet to find standardized solutions. Among different classes of Ad hoc networks, Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs

A Snake Robot with Mixed Gaits Capability
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Snake robots are mostly designed based on single mode of locomotion. However, single mode gait most of the time fails to work effectively when they are required to work in different cluttered environment with different measures of complexity. As a solution, mixed mode locomotion is proposed in this paper by synchronizing serpentine gait for unconst

Religious Fasting Increase Fat Free Mass (Ffm) and Reduce Abdominal Obesity
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the effect of fasting on anthropometry and body composition in fasting obese and non-obese subjects. Design/methodology/approach: In total, 25 volunteers (male and female) were recruited during Ramadan. Age, sex, weight, height, waist and hip circumference and menstrual cycle status (in case of fema
