Fault Tolerant Hardware for High Performance Signal Processing
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The approach described in this paper uses an array of Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) devices to implement a fault tolerant hardware system that can be compared to the running of fault tolerant software on a traditional processor. Fault tolerance is achieved is achieved by using FPGA with on the fly partial programmability feature. Major consi

Extensive Reading with Adult Learners of English as a Second Language: Habits and Attitudes of a Group of Malaysian pre-University Students
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Many language instructors acknowledge the important role extensive reading plays in the acquisition of a second language. There are many ways in which an extensive reading programme can be intergrated into a language curriculum. This study reports of feedback from 2,461 learners of English as a second language in a pre-university programme where ex

Faktor Jantina, Etnik dan Jurusan Terhadap Gaya Pembelajaran di Kalangan Pelajar Universiti Teknologi Malaysia
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Indeks Gaya Pembelajaran ini adalah perkakas yang digunakan untuk mengesan kecenderungan pelajar mendapatkan maklumat. Dalam kajian ini, faktor jantina, pilihan jurusan, dan etnik terhadap gaya pembelajaran ditinjau dan dihuraikan. Tinjauan mendapati tiada perbezaan ketara di antara pelajar lelaki dan perempuan dalam gaya pembelajaran. Sungguhpun p

The Problem in problem-Based Learning (Pbl)
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Designing a problem that can meet the course objectives is an essential ingredient in the success of a pbl classroom. While many admit that pbl offer many advantages in terms of encouraging learner autonomy, active learner participation and involvement in their own learning processes, constraints of time frequently deter practitioners from choosing

A Conceptual Framework for Studying the Effects of cross-Cultural Training, Expatriates' Personality, self-Efficacy, and Social Network Composition on Adjustment and Performance in Overseas Assignments
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This paper presents a conceptual framework for conducting empirical investigations to study the effects of cross-cultural training, expatriates' personality, self-efficacy, and social network compositions on their adjustments and performance in overseas assignments. Developed based on extensive reviews of literature, and findings from prior res

Asbab an-Nuzul: a Critical Study of the Criteria of their Acceptability
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This article aims to identify criteria for accepting the accounts of asbab an-Nuzul It begins with the definition of asbab an-Nuzul, criteria for accepting asbab an-Nuzul as determined by classical scholars, problems surrounding the reports of asbab an-Nuzul, and ends with suggestions of criteria that should be used and noted when identifying the c

A Review of Office Buildings in Malaysia: the Window and Lighting Designs
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This research reviews the background of office buildings in relation to their design development, window and lighting design and guidelines of office building design in Malaysia. It discusses the development of the office building, the design of workspace layout, the relevant window and lighting building regulation and the method and system of wind

Active Engine Mounting Controller Using Extended Minimal Resource Allocating Networks
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The application of the Extended Minimal Resource Allocation Network (EMRAN) in the field of active vibration isolation for an automotive engine system is presented. As the source of disturbance the engine is mounted on a two passive mounts in parallel with an active force actuator. EMRAN is implemented to control the force actuator and to isolate t

Data Fusion for Defect Characterisation Using a Dual Probe System
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

We present recent work on a dual probe system containing electromagnetic acoustic transducers (EMATs) generating and detecting surface ultrasonic waves, and a pulsed eddy current (PEC) probe. This system is able to detect and size surface and near-surface defects in electrically conducting samples by looking at changes in the detected signal for ea

Development of Low Normal Force Contact Using Electro Fine Forming and Lithography Technology
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This new technology is realized by Photo Resist Lithography and NiCo Electro Fine Forming Process, and enables the design of a small contact spring for applications requiring high density, high speed and high durability. The evaluation result proved the capability of Low Normal Force (0.10N-0.15N at 0.3mm) at contact point (5μm radius), durability
