This study is based on in-depth empirical data taken, as an outside-observer, from a medium-size enterprise. It provides hard evidence of the new non-financial Keys Performance Indicators (KPIs)' efficiency to evaluate a production system's (PS) performance. It has been proven that the use of only the internal performance measurement system (PMS) is not enough as a significant measurement. The need of an external performance measurement (PM) is very important. As will be demonstrated the combination between the new non-financial PMSs and the systemic approach; a vital tool to support the continuous improvement of a PS's performance.

On April 17, 1999, the Kuala Lumpur Stock Exchange, today known as Bursa Malaysia, launched a new index called Syariah Index (SI) to facilitate participation in the equity investment in accordance with Islamic syariah's principles. Syariah-based equity is basically shares of the company meeting the criteria of Islamic jurisprudence. Indices are used as a performance benchmark for portfolios such as mutual fund shares. The index is a device that allows investors to measure the performance of the group share of the market. This paper forecasts the FTSE Bursa Malaysia Hijrah Shariah (FBMHS) and FTSE Bursa Malaysia KLCI (FBMKLCI) index using the better model of Geometric Brownian motion in terms of volatility models and number of data. This paper shows that forecasting using log volatility and 4 week daily data gives accurate forecasting.

Information on diameter increment and growth pattern of tree species is very crucial in silvicultural practices and forest management especially in the natural forests. This study dealt with an analysis of tree growth rate in lowland forests of Taman Negara Pahang at Kuala Keniam. For this purpose, a total of 105 individual trees distributed along five transect lines measuring at 100 m × 20 m were selected. The selected trees consist of ten dominant species extracted from inventory data. The trees were categorized into two timber classes viz light hardwood (six species) and medium hardwood (four species). The diameter at breast height (DBH) of the trees was measured in the years 2007, 2008 and 2009. To determine the diameter increment and growth rates, the DBH of trees was re-measured and compared between species and timber classes. Statistical analysis performed indicated that there is no significant difference in the means of diameter increment and the growth rate between species and between timber classes (P≥0.05). Comparison among tree species indicated that Aglaia sp. and Teijsmanniodendron coriaceum recorded the highest and lowest diameter increments, respectively. In addition, light hardwood trees exhibited higher increment in diameter than medium hardwood, however, the difference is not statistically significant. The information in this study may be useful to provide baseline information in the planning and conservation efforts of tree species in protected area such as Taman Negara.
树种径增和生长模式的信息在人工林特别是天然林的造林实践和森林经营中具有重要意义。本研究分析了位于吉隆坡的Taman Negara Pahang低地森林的树木生长率。为此,共选择105棵树,分布在5条样线上,面积为100 m × 20 m。所选树种由从库存数据中提取的10种优势树种组成。树木可分为轻硬木(6种)和中硬木(4种)两类。分别于2007年、2008年和2009年测量了这些树木的胸径(DBH)。为了确定树木的直径增长量和生长率,重新测量了树木的胸径,并比较了不同树种和不同材级的胸径。统计分析表明,不同树种和不同材种间的径增均值和生长率均无显著差异(P≥0.05)。不同树种间的比较结果表明,粗增量最大的树种是菖蒲(Aglaia sp.),最小的树种是菖蒲(teijmanniodendron coriaceum)。此外,轻硬木树木的直径增量高于中硬木,但差异无统计学意义。本研究结果可为Taman Negara等保护区的树种规划和保护工作提供基础信息。

Shape memory alloy has been used as actuator parts in aerospace industry since the 1970s. In recent years, this smart material has been used to improve structural behaviours. Due to environmental heating, the problem of buckling of thin composite structures of aerospace vehicles becomes significant. A numerical study on the buckling and post-buckling improvements of composite plates due to shape memory effect behaviour of the shape memory alloy is presented. The shape memory alloy wires were embedded within laminated composite plates to exploit the recovery stress induced by the shape memory alloy to improve the stiffness of the plates. The study was conducted on symmetric and anti-symmetric angle-ply and cross-ply composite plates. The methods of active property tuning and active strain energy tuning were applied to show the various effects of the shape memory alloy on the studied behaviours. A geometric non-linear finite element model of the shape memory alloy composite plates and its source code were developed. It was found that significant improvements occurred in the critical loads and the post-buckling paths of the symmetric and anti-symmetric angle-ply and the symmetric cross-ply composite plates due to the active strain energy tuning method. In the case of the anti-symmetric cross-ply composite plate where bifurcation point did not exist, the post-buckling path improved substantially too.

Remote sensing techniques have been used to study the impacts of the tropical cyclone. In order to figure out the relationship of typhoon with orography effect, precipitation products are acquired from Feng Yun 2D; and Global Digital Elevation Model (GDEM) from ASTER satellite was applied as well. After combining both the precipitation and elevation products of Peninsular Malaysia (PM), rainfall distribution patterns are distinctly affected by the mountains range. Titiwangsa Mountain range is the major mountain range which is able to influence the movement and distribution of the raining clouds. Normally, Titiwangsa Mountains can separate the raining distribution into 2 parts which is east and west side of the PM. Sometimes, rains can happen at both sides simultaneously when allowable weather conditions exist such as during typhoon activity. The other mountains which are higher than two thousands meters in PM are also able to change the rainfall distribution patterns since some raining clouds are lower than this elevation. 2 types of typhoon tail effects are defined by high low pressure system and centrifugal force reaction.

The increment of vehicle in UiTM main campus had contributed to parking problem because of limited parking space. Hence, rotary parking system could be one of alternative solution. Since it is a big system, this research focuses only on the platform (where cars will be parked on top of it) upper pallet structure. Initial design process stage [1] (conceptual, embodiement and detail design) had been applied to develop CAD model of the parking system. The pallet CAD model are analyzed to predict stress and deflection. The result then are compared to design specifications and material properties to ensure the design is verified. Solidworks software is used for CAD modeling and CAE analysis.

Since 1992, the Asian Development Bank has provided various development projects under the official development assistance (ODA) to boost economic activities in Greater Mekong Sub-region (GMS). With the completion of some of major projects, we expect these countries to show interdependencies of vertical and horizontal integrated of trade. Against this background, this paper aims to clarify the causal relation of export activities between the five countries of GMS i.e. Thailand, Vietnam, Myanmar, Cambodia, and Laos. For this purpose we run the Toda-Yamamoto causality test on quarterly data from 1990 to 2009.The results suggest the followings. The Toda and Yamamoto (1995) test results indicate different causality pattern among the GMS countries in export and FDI flows. Differences in their causality pattern is determine by combination of several factor, such as differences in income per capita, internal and international political condition, and membership in socioeconomic and political cooperation such as ASEAN.

The objective of this study is to develop a portable continuous blood pressure monitoring kit using an electrocardiography (ECG) sensor. The method that was used to measure and monitor blood pressure continuously is based on Heart Rate (HR). The method was separately implemented for different techniques to measure systolic blood pressure (SBP). The techniques that were used to model the relationship between the HR data to systolic blood pressure is neural network model. Neural network model gave the smallest value of mean of error and standard deviation of error for continuously monitoring blood pressure based on HR. These errors are acceptable and relatively small compared to the standard accuracy, which should have a minimum mean of error value of 6 mmHg with a standard deviation of error of ±10mmHg. The subjects that were involved in portable BP monitoring kit testing are normal blood pressure subjects, low blood pressure subjects and high blood pressure subjects.
