Abstract—Electronic learning management system (e-LMS) is widely used in the Higher-Education institutions to deliver and share learning contents among the students. However, most of the e-LMS are developed for offline or online desktops. The objective of the proposed mobile learning management system (m-LMS) is to provide the flexibility of accessing and managing course materials at anywhere and anytime, making learning even more widely available. The m-LMS is equipped with many functions to allow for various related multimedia documents such as text, image, audio, and video to be uploaded, edited, deleted, tagged, and searched among the university students. Experimental results obtained from surveys have shown that the m-LMS is able to provide better learning environment for the university learners, which lead to a deeper level of learning engagement.

Two major controversial metrics that determine the stability period of a wireless sensor network (WSN) are accuracy and longevity. In this paper, we analyse the trade-off between accuracy and longevity in WSNs. We investigate different types of WSNs routing techniques together with their applications and state of the art in WSN routing protocols and determine their underlying success with regards to accuracy and longevity. We provide alternatives for algorithms not described in both parameters.

Recently, the concepts of game theory has attract the attention of researcher for self-governing decision making to study the performance of wireless network. There has been growing interest in accepting game theoretic method to wireless systems. The problem of interference management in femtocell network is approached from the prospective of game theory with the concept of price policy. Whereby price is used to control the power transmission of each femto users in the cell coverage. In this paper, we propose a price policy to reduce the effect of interference between the femto users at both center and edge regions of cell network. The performance of our proposed algorithm is demonstrated by simulation results. Index Term—Femtocells, nash equilibrium, OFDDMA system, interference.

Abstract — There is an emerging trend of using games for learning purposes and previous research has looked at how the concept is applied in different fields. However, little studies have been done to examine how programming affects primary school students especially in the Malaysian context. To better understand how learners respond to the use of digital games in learning programming, this exploratory case study is performed by examining the attitude of upper primary schools students towards its usage. The students were asked to perform several learning activities using games during which observations were made and questionnaires were distributed for data collection. The outcome of the study will be useful in the future development of games that are suitable to the students’ age and level. By identifying the learners’ preference, it can help to guide the development of digital games especially in the field of programming. Index Terms — Digital games, education, primary students, programming.

This paper proposes a CS based watermarking algorithm. In this algorithm, the watermarking image embeds into the compressive measurement vectors by the encoder. The measurement vectors are sparse in suitable basis. The resulting watermarked measurements recover by using both the OMP and the OMP-PKS reconstruction algorithms. Then the decoder uses to extract the watermarking image. In an experimental study, results obtained by the OMP and the OMP-PKS algorithms are compared. The results show that the OMP-PKS algorithm achieves performance superior to that of the OMP reconstruction algorithm. Index Terms—Watermarking image, CS, OMP and OMP-PKS algorithms.

201 Abstract—Tuberculosis (TB) remains one of the leading health problems in the Philippines. Although curable, many Filipinos cannot afford the cost of treatment. Furthermore, the free services offered by the public health centers are insufficient to attend to the medical needs of those seeking help. In this paper, the researchers present the system that can assist doctors, nurses and health workers in diagnosing tuberculosis using techniques in machine learning through applying ID3 algorithm. Interviews with several experts in the field of TB were conducted in order to gather data that were used to populate the system's knowledge base. Test result show that the system is capable of prescribing treatments based on the patient's data and tracking the progress of the patient based on his/her prescribed treatment.

This paper will discuss the algorithm to be implemented in the simulation of traffic flow system with the presence of the intelligent vehicles inside a microscopic traffic flow. This is possible with the introduction of the Behavior Sector to set various driving behavior of the virtual intelligent vehicles. The Behavior Sector consists of five different units, which are Route and Destination, Vision, Personality, Decision Making, and Motion Control. Fuzzy Logic is adopted to control the Behavior Sector. The traffic flow system is developed using Matlab software using Fuzzy Logic toolbox. One case study based on Taman Universiti area in Skudai, Johor is used to show the results of the Behavior Sector in the simulation of the traffic flow system.

The imitation between different types of robots remains an unsolved task for a long time. The assignment of the correct angles to each joint is critical for robot motion. However, different robots have different structures, thus this discrepancy causes a difficulty when converting a motion to another type of robot. For solving this problem, we propose a GA-based method that can find the conversion matrix needed to map joint angles of one robot to another. There are two objectives to consider when creating an imitation; reducing the difference between the ideal imitation and the converted imitation and keeping the stability. Three experiments were conducted; a stable experiment, an unstable experiment and a double learning experiment. As a result, the double experiment showed a high concordance rate of 93.5%, the highest stability and the fastest speed of all experiments. These results show great promise for the proposed method as a way to realize motion imitation between different types of robots.
