Rapid technological advancements have transformed how businesses and organizations manage documents. The traditional approach of maintaining physical paper documents has proven time-consuming, costly, and inefficient. In response to these challenges, the Development of Document Management System (DMSys) has emerged as a progressive solution, providing a step towards achieving a paperless office. The study also examines the impact of DMSys on environmental sustainability. The reduction in paper consumption not only conserves natural resources but also minimizes waste generation, contributing to a greener and eco-conscious workspace. The primary goal of DMSys is to enhance cost and time efficiency in information dissemination, improve overall efficiency, facilitate information distribution, and streamline file management at the Centre for Diploma Studies (CeDS). The system ensures effective communication and access to essential information for administrative and academic staff. The system's core functionalities include creating, reading, updating, deleting, and editing documents. The development process of DMSys followed the Waterfall Model, a systematic approach that eased the system's creation. In gauging the effectiveness of DMSys, surveys were conducted to gather feedback from respondents regarding the system's efficiency. The results indicated that most respondents agreed that implementing DMSys has significantly increased efficiency by reducing time and costs associated with photocopying and paper usage, thereby contributing to UTHM's U.I. Green Metric World University Ranking.

Local Heritage food is a region special food that is different from those from other regions. Due to its uniqueness, the food can be a souvenir as proof that consumers have visited a certain place. In carrying it as souvenir, that traditional food needs packaging. As a souvenir, the packaging needs to have uniqueness that can differentiate it from other packaging and at the same time it can show its identity. One of the distinctions comes from the attributes of the packaging from the visual side, because the visual appearance is the first thing that can catch the costumer’s attention and influence purchasing decisions. So, it needs to be analyzed to find what attributes are required to elevate the visual side. This is qualitative research. Preliminary data were obtained from a literature study on food packaging design which are analyzed for its attributes, the results were quantitative using the NVivo application. NVivo was used to illustrate the decision analysis results framework by coding the data according to the classification scheme. For attribute items, the ATUMICS guide (Artefact, Technique, Utility, Material, Icon, Concept and Shape) was used as a step to reconstruct the packaging. The result of this study is the arrangement of the visual attributes of traditional food packaging, which will be applied to develop the packaging design for the Samarinda gabin biscuit, to reconstruct the packaging which is suitable to current taste without losing its original identity.

Modern industries, particularly oil and gas, necessitate robust maintenance management and optimization for increased profits, plant availability, and maintenance cost reduction. The maintenance strategy is therefore crucial, especially under global economic pressures on equipment reliability. This study examines the present maintenance management practices for refinery valves, critical equipment whose failure can have severe consequences. Many existing models for selecting critical equipment in maintenance management face limitations due to inadequate decision analysis and exclusion of key criteria. This research proposes a strategy model, combining artificial intelligence and multi-criteria decision-making techniques like Fuzzy Logic and Analytical Hierarchy Process, to fill this gap and manage refinery valves' maintenance. Proven by case studies and interviews, the model improves safety, reliability, operational availability and enables operators to monitor their decision consequences. The model can convince asset managers to invest in maintenance initiatives.

Queuing simulation modelling is one of the indicators used to determine the effectiveness of procedures that incorporate queuing simulation modelling. As a result, this paper utilised queueing theory throughout the Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) institution’s interview process in Malaysia. The simulation reveals that the queuing simulation comprises a single queue connecting to multiple servers. Each interview stage involves serving more than two (2) candidates concurrently. As a result, the model used in this case study is a multiple-server model, in which more than two (2) servers concurrently serve a single waiting line in parallel. The purpose of queuing simulation modelling is to quantify operational characteristics such as the average number of candidates in the line, the average number of candidates in the system, and the average wait time for candidates in the line and the system. The results indicate that all steps are well-organised and completed within the time constraints associated with each stage. Identifying individuals who combine necessary skills with the ability to overcome challenges, manage stress, deal with ambiguity, work effectively in a team, and demonstrate resourcefulness will benefit the organisation in the short and long term. Therefore, the organisation developed a procedure in which job candidates are immersed in unusual settings to elicit the most useful information about their fitness, personality, critical thinking ability, creativity, and interpersonal skills.

The issue of dam failure has been a key contributor to massive catastrophes, as well as economic and physical destruction. Nevertheless, the effectiveness and accuracy of the simulation of a dam break model are still under debate. In this study, a simulation of a 2D model of the dam breaking half-filled water tank was carried out using Ansys software to evaluate the deformation and water pressure of dam break flow. Four sensors were installed to examine the changes in pressure of the water deformation. Deformation of water at a certain time of the dam break simulation and the pressure of water inside were analyzed and compared with the experimental result, which has been reported by Lobovský. Validation and verification of hydrostatic tests have been found to be in agreement with the current model simulation. An extensive set of data for the simulation is given access as supplementary materials for the direct result of the recent initiative. The results show that by excluding minor differences in wave shape and duration of water movement, the deformation of water exemplifies the same behavior as the experimental results. For experimental data, the non-dimensional time of the dam break event is ranged within 0 to 7.14828 ms while the pressure of water flow is within 0 to 3.0441 Pa. As for simulation results, the non-dimensional time of the dam break event is ranged within 0 to 202 ms whereas the pressure of water flow is within 0 to 0.54124 Pa. Thus, to strengthen the quality numerical model, future work should emphasize the initiative to incorporate the Smooth Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) method with the goal of improving computational validity and efficiency.

Traffic engineering is a phase in engineering that involves planning, geometry design, and traffic operation on the road. Performance analysis of facilities such as intersections is part of traffic engineering studies. This study aims to analyse the performance of several intersections along Jalan Sulaiman/Jalan Temenggung Ahmad in Bandar Maharani, Muar, Johor. Therefore, the objectives are to identify a peak hour along this road based on commuter volume counting and to analyse the level of service of the selected signalised intersections. Turning movement data were collected manually at signalized intersections while for roundabouts, data were extracted from the drone-recorded video. SIDRA Intersection 8.0 was used to analyse the collected data in this study. The commuter volume study found that the peak hour and the peak 15-minute are from 5.30 p.m. to 6.30 p.m. and 6.00 p.m. to 6.15 p.m. with 2420 and 653 vehicles, respectively. Based on the performance analysis, the level of service for all studied intersections during the peak hour is at the worst performance or F and needs immediate action by the local authority. In summary, the intersections along Jalan Sulaiman/Jalan Temenggung Ahmad can be considered among the busiest road in Bandar Maharani Muar based on the analysis outcomes. The responsible party should carry out proper intervention to increase the capacity at the involved intersections.

Textile industries are one of the major contributors to the environmental pollution problems in the world. Textile industries release many dyes and various contaminants at a variety of ranges. Wastewater needs to be treated before being released into the environment to prevent bad effects on humans and living things. These studies describe how coffee waste activated carbon removes methylene blue dye from wastewater in cost effective way by using coffee waste via a simple absorption method. Coffee waste activated carbon (CWAC) was produced by carbonization and followed by chemical activation using 1M potassium hydroxide (KOH) and physical activation by a furnace for 850° C for 2 hours. The absorption test was erformed with 0.1 g to 0.9 g of CWAC in 100 ml of 500 ppm methylene blue and the samples were taken every 10 minutes. The absorption of dye by CWAC was assessed by using UV-Viss Spectrophotometer. As a result, the coffee waste is possible to treat dyes up to 80 % in a short time. In 10 minutes, 0.1g of AC can remove dyes as much as 79.1%.

The development of inorganic fertilizers were found to be unsuitable for agriculture industry in Malaysia. In this study, the observation on the growth of chili plants was attempted with the presence of two types of controlled release fertilizer and inorganic fertilizer via a transplanting method. The chili plants were then undergone three observations which are plant height, stem diameter and number of leaves. The average plant height of chili plants of controlled release fertilizer B is 20.3 cm, 25.0 cm and 16.5 cm while the average stem diameter is 1.84 cm, 1.93 cm and 1.84 cm while for the average number of leaves is 41, 51 and 32.5. As a result, the chili plants with controlled release fertilizer B showed a positive result and were then tested by cross-sectional stem analysis by using a microscope results. This method aim is to ensure that controlled release fertilizer with extra nutrients is the most suitable for use by the public. Based on the composition of chili stem shown under microscope magnification, thickness of the outer layer indicates the chili plants have undergone a good absorption. The inner epidermis layer and outer epidermis layer were found, and it is subject to the agreement of plant cell structure. Based on all these studies, the chili plants with CRF B were found to grow rapidly in the fourth week. Therefore, it can be concluded that controlled release fertilizer is a high-quality product to be used by public based on the 6 weeks observation, cross-sectional stem analysis and the comparison of additional nutrients in CRF B.
在马来西亚，无机肥料的发展并不适合农业。在这项研究中，我们尝试通过移栽方法，观察两种控释肥料和无机肥料在辣椒植株上的生长情况。然后对辣椒植株进行了三项观察，即株高、茎直径和叶片数。施用控释肥 B 的辣椒植株平均株高分别为 20.3 厘米、25.0 厘米和 16.5 厘米，平均茎直径分别为 1.84 厘米、1.93 厘米和 1.84 厘米，平均叶片数分别为 41 片、51 片和 32.5 片。因此，施用控释肥 B 的辣椒植株表现出了积极的结果，然后使用显微镜对茎的横截面进行了检测。这种方法的目的是确保含有额外养分的控释肥料最适合大众使用。根据显微镜放大镜下显示的辣椒茎的成分，外层的厚度表明辣椒植株吸收良好。发现了内表皮层和外表皮层，这与植物细胞结构一致。根据所有这些研究发现，施用 CRF B 的辣椒植株在第四周生长迅速。因此，根据 6 周的观察、茎干横截面分析和 CRF B 中附加养分的比较，可以得出结论，控释肥料是可供大众使用的优质产品。
{"title":"Different Response Between Controlled Release Fertilizer and Inorganic Fertilizer on the Growth of Chilli Plant","authors":"","doi":"10.55057/ijbtm.2023.5.s5.12","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.55057/ijbtm.2023.5.s5.12","url":null,"abstract":"The development of inorganic fertilizers were found to be unsuitable for agriculture industry in Malaysia. In this study, the observation on the growth of chili plants was attempted with the presence of two types of controlled release fertilizer and inorganic fertilizer via a transplanting method. The chili plants were then undergone three observations which are plant height, stem diameter and number of leaves. The average plant height of chili plants of controlled release fertilizer B is 20.3 cm, 25.0 cm and 16.5 cm while the average stem diameter is 1.84 cm, 1.93 cm and 1.84 cm while for the average number of leaves is 41, 51 and 32.5. As a result, the chili plants with controlled release fertilizer B showed a positive result and were then tested by cross-sectional stem analysis by using a microscope results. This method aim is to ensure that controlled release fertilizer with extra nutrients is the most suitable for use by the public. Based on the composition of chili stem shown under microscope magnification, thickness of the outer layer indicates the chili plants have undergone a good absorption. The inner epidermis layer and outer epidermis layer were found, and it is subject to the agreement of plant cell structure. Based on all these studies, the chili plants with CRF B were found to grow rapidly in the fourth week. Therefore, it can be concluded that controlled release fertilizer is a high-quality product to be used by public based on the 6 weeks observation, cross-sectional stem analysis and the comparison of additional nutrients in CRF B.","PeriodicalId":486744,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Business and Technology Management","volume":"788 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139019837","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
