Control of Cooperative Manipulators in Holding Deformable Objects
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This paper presents the implementation of a control system to control cooperative manipulators to hold deformable objects. The aim is to hold the deformable object without having information on the shape and stiffness of the deformable object beforehand. The prototype of a pair of manipulators has been designed and built to test the controller. A f

closed-Loop Model Identification of Cooperative Manipulators Holding Deformable Objects
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This paper presents system identification to obtain the closed-loop models of a couple of cooperative manipulators in a system, which function to hold deformable objects. The system works using the master-slave principle. In other words, one of the manipulators is position-controlled through encoder feedback, while a force sensor gives feedback to

Invitro Activity of T4 Bacteriophage on Uropathogenic E. Coli
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Bacteriophage is a virus that infects bacteria and can kill a bacterial cell or integrate its nucleic acid (DNA or RNA) into the host bacterial cell. One of the phage important medical applications is using it as an alternative approach to treatment of infections by resistant pathogenic bacteria. This book aims to review the literature concerning t

Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The medicinal benefits of Plantago major have been acknowledged around the world for hundreds of years. This plant contains a number of effective chemical constituents including flavonoids, alkaloids, terpenoids, phenolic acid derivatives, iridoid glycosides, fatty acids, polysaccharides and vitamins which contribute to its exerting specific therap

Willingness to Pay for Crop Insurance to Adapt Flood Risk by Malaysian Farmers: an Empirical Investigation of Kedah
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This study examines the factors that may affect the willingness to pay (WTP) crop insurance by Malaysian rice farmers in Kedah, Malaysia, for the adaptation of flood risk. 350 farm households are selected and a structured questionnaire is used to elicit data from the respondents. The data are analyzed with descriptive statistics and logit regressio

Analysis of Hardware Architecture Markovian Chain Queuing Model for Wireless Sensor Networks
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

A wireless Sensor Network (WSN) commonly consumes fairly less energy whereas light and multiple-distributed sensors along with an appropriate wireless network usually come with a lower data rate. An increased system performance along with relatively a higher stability can be achieved by means of applying suitable routing protocol and QoS. QoS repre

Evaluation of Graphical and Multivariate Statistical Methods for Classification and Evaluation of Groundwater in Alathur Block, Perambalur District, India
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This paper assesses the quality of water using different graphical and statistical methods like Durov, Schoeller, Piper – Tri linear diagram, Box and Whisker plot for three seasons in the study area Alathur block, Perambalur District. The graphical representation provides limitations compared with the multivariate method for large data sets. A to

Efficacy and Safety of Sprint and Star Protocol on Malaysian critically-Ill Patients
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Abstract—Intensive care unit patients may have a better glycaemic management with the right control protocol. Results of virtual trial performance on Malaysian critically-ill patients adopting a model-derived and model-based control protocol known as SPRINT and STAR are presented in this paper. These ICU patients have been treated by intensive sl

Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The aim of this paper is to identify the problem extents and successfully applying project management in SMEs with a focus on manufacturing industries. The organization of the study was mainly divided into the activity of literature study and the investigation through a survey conduct aimed to measure the awareness and implementation of project man

An Integrated Model of e-Government Adoption the Case of Electronic Tax Filing Among Indonesian Corporate Taxpayers
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Electronic Tax Filing or e-filing system has been regarded as one of the important egovernment initiatives to optimize the tax returns for a country. Indonesian government has put huge investment on the development of e-filing system and infrastructure, yet the rate of adoption is still low. Directorate General of Taxation (DJP) as e-filing service
