Graph algorithm vertex coloring
No full textGraph coloring problem is to find the minimal number of colors to color vertex of a graph in such a way that every two
vertex linked by an edge have different colors. A vertex coloring algorithm has been presented. As a result of applying
vertex coloring algorithm no two vertex are to be allocated in same color if they are adjacent in graph. Graph coloring
and its generalizations are useful tools in modelling a wide variety of scheduling and assignment problems
The essential of engineering education involving critical thinking and problems solving skills among mechanical engineer employees
No full textEngineering Education is a course that emphasis on soft skills that are related to critical thinking and the ability in
solving problems. Creative and Critical Thinking Skills (CCTS) is a type of skill that had introduced and strongly
emphasized in the education system, starting from primary school. Recently, all the exam questions in primary,
secondary schools and public universities oriented to the principle of Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) in (RMK 11
- Transforming Education System). The objective of this education program is to produce students that are more
competent in solving problems by applying effectively various forms of knowledge that had studied theoretically. This
study aims to examine the extent to which the needs of elements of critical thinking and problem-solving skills to
produce competitive engineers from industries point of view. Feedback from respondents was taken through
quantitative methods using a set of questionnaires. A total of 300 respondents have participated in this study. The
study is expected to be a guide for future mechanical engineers who would be involved by the requirements of the
mainstream industry
Mastery of leadership skills among mechanical engineers from the industrial Perspective
No full textLeadership is an essential element of all types of work. This skill is also a focus in the field of Mechanical Engineering.
Mechanical Engineers are said to be less familiar with leadership skills, and this will negatively affect the reputation of
an industry. They aimed of this study to look at the extent of the need for leadership skills among Mechanical
Engineers. The quantitative method used to obtain the study data involves 300 respondents who need to answer the
questionnaire. The results show that the elements of leadership skills are at a very high level of need of 88.50%.
Therefore, graduates in Mechanical Engineering should be more prepared to prepare for the workplac
Capability Social Capital Indices Among Low Income Group in East Coast of Malaysia
No full textCapability of social capital is highly debated among today's social researchers as it reduces the rate of poverty through increasing household income in a country. Previous studies have shown that social capital index is very important in measuring the level of social wellbeing and the quality of life of society. There arc many social capital measurement indices being used by researchers. llowever. for this study. six dimensions of social capital will be used which arc network & communication: trust value, norms & habits, social rules, capability or ability and religious needs. The aim of this study is to analy :tc the influence of social capital on individual income levels in east coast especially in Terengganu. Malaysia. Respondents are randomly chosen from selected residential areas in Terengganu. Data was analyt.ed using Statistical Package of Social Science tSPSSL. and findings show the relationship between social capital factors and Intl income of the respondents. the results of this study contribute to the theoretical implications by demonstrating a conceptual framework that examines the relationships between social capital and income levels
A Hybrid of Quasi-Newton Method with CG Method for Unconstrained Optimization
No full textThe quasi-Newton is a well-known method for solving small to medium-scale unconstrained optimization problems
due to its simplicity and convergence. This leads to many modifications to improve its performance, and one of them
is by hybridizing it with another optimization method. In this study , the quasi-Newton method is combined with the
ARM method, which is a type of conjugate gradient method. The resulting hybrid algorithm is globally convergent
under exact line searc
Ethnic muslims minorities struggle and democratic regime in Myanmar
No full textIt is an established perception in Myanmar society that all Muslims are settlers and migrated during the
British colonial period. There are a number of distinct Muslim communities in Myanmar, not all of which
share the same cultural or ethnic background. It can be categorized into four different groups; Muslims
of South Asian origin, Arakan Muslims or Rohingys, Panthays who are ethnically Chinese and Burmese
Muslims or Zerabadee. Except Rohingya, rest of the ethnic Muslims are located in urban areas and
politically not significant group. The Rohingya minority had strong involvement in the government
before and after independence of Myanmar. This is evident in the 2010-2015 parliament, where three
Rohingya MPs were elected from the Muslim dominated constituency in Rakhine State. However, the
situation changed for all Muslim ethnic minorities after the 2012 Buddhist-Muslim riots. As a result,
major political party’s failed to nominate any Muslim candidate in the 2015 general elections. Currently,
there is no Muslims representation in Myanmar parliament. This paper argues that, historically Muslims
are closer to the national hero Aung San and tried to maintain good ties with the NLD. After the
emergence of Buddhist chauvinism in Myanmar, Suu Kyi and her party NLD has been surprisingly silent
atrocity against the Muslims. Irrespective of international pressures, the main institutions of the
Myanmar government, military, major political parties, media and the radical Buddhist monks targeting
and humiliating the Islam and Islamic way of life. One of the main reasons behind is Islamophobia. In
this context, it is important to hear the views of Muslim minorities how they coexist in a Myanmar
society despite years of hatred and insecurity. Myanmar's ongoing political transition is not merely
civilians power sharing with military elites rather accommodating ethnic religious minorities in nation
building process
The Effect Of Unstable Rubber Prices Toward Malaysia Economy
No full textRubber plantation is one of Malaysia agricultural source of income; more than 40% of the total world’s

continuously declining, even though it appreciates sometimes but not as high as it was before during
the colonial time. At present, the price of rubber seemly unstable due to numbers of rreasons.
Therefore, this paper meant to study whether rubber industry is still relevant for Malaysian economy
today, and what would be the impact for Malaysia economy as a developing country. The research
adopts historical and analytical methods, whereby secondary sources such as books, articles in journal,
official documents, and internet sources are utilized among others. The finding enables the researchers
to propose solution for improvement in the Malaysian rubber industr
