Asmah, Collins, Dan Dialek Melayu: Pentafsiran Mengenai Gagasan Dan Implikasinya Terhadap Grafisejarah Linguistik Melayu
Get PDFMakalah ini menganalisis gagasan atau idea tentang dialek dan dialektologi Melayu yang dikemukakan oleh dua orang bahasawan bahasa Melayu tersohor iaitu Asmah Hj. Omar dan James T. Collins. Berpedoman kepada pendekatan ‘Kesinambungan’ dan ‘iklim idea’ dalam grafisejarah linguistik, gagasan tentang dialek dan dialektologi Melayu oleh Asmah dan Collins dianalisis secara perbandingan. Analisis ini bertujuan untuk menonjolkan ciri-ciri istimewanya. Pada masa yang sama, makalah ini turut menelusuri sumber yang memberi ilham kepada Asmah dan Collins dalam membentuk gagasan dialek dan dialektologi mereka. Isu yang dibincangkan ini bukan sahaja berlegar-legar seputar persoalan dialek dan dialektologi Melayu, malah turut mengandungi implikasi tidak langsung kepada beberapa persoalan dalam grafisejarah linguistik Melayu secara umumnya
Improving pedestrian facilities at signalised crossings
No full textTraffic signal control systems are usually designed to maximise vehicle capacity and minimise vehicle delay with the needs of pedestrians considered separately as necessary. Therefore, the aim of this research is to improve the signal control at pedestrian crossings, so that optimisation takes into account the total delay to all road users including pedestrians. Upstream Detection and Volumetric Detection at pedestrian crossing facilities have been identified as potential alternatives that might enhance pedestrian amenity. These new possibilities were evaluated using a micro-simulation software. Research to date has shown that the VISSIM model is suitable for this evaluation and the latest algorithm for signal controlled pedestrian crossing, the Puffin has been coded into the model and tested. The Puffin then formed a base control strategy against which new strategies were evaluated. The new strategies were then evaluated based on travel delay to both vehicle and pedestrian and also financial benefit to the road crossing. After calibration and validation in VISSIM model, an Upstream Detection and Volumetric Detection were developed. In the Upstream Detection, a push button was located 5 meters at an upstream location of the crossing. In the Volumetric Detection, the optimum maximum green was determined based on the lowest total person delay and total delay costs. Generally, an Upstream Detection caused a reduction in total person delay and total delay costs at a lower vehicle flow. The Volumetric Detection caused a reduction in total person delay and total delay costs at all vehicle and pedestrian flow combinations. The results showed that both Upstream Detection and Volumetric Detection have promising benefits to implement at Puffin crossing. Upstream Detection has a clear benefit at a lower vehicle flow while the Volumetric Detection shows there are changes on maximum green settings at a lower vehicle flow as pedestrian flow increases

Fasa di hujung nyawa / Siti Asmah Mohamed
Get PDFPenjagaan paliatif seringkali dikaitkan dengan individu-individu yang menghidapi penyakit kronik seperti penyakit kanser, buah pinggang, strok, penyakit jantung dan sebagainya. Namun demikian, pesakit kanser yang tiada lagi harapan untuk sembuh atau didiagnos pada peringkat akhir ataupun terminal memerlukan penjagaan dan rawatan paliatif. Menurut Pertubuhan Kesihatan Sedunia (WHO), penjagaan paliatif merupakan perdekatan perubatan bagi meningkatkan kualiti hidup pesakit dan keluarga mereka yang berdepan penyakit mengancam nyawa dengan mengatasi dan mengurangkan penderitaan, sama ada melalui rawatan fizikal, psikososial dan spiritual. Hampir semua hospital besar kerajaan mempunyai pusat rawatan paliatif atau disebut juga sebagai Hospis. Setiap pusat rawatan paliatif mempunyai pasukan khusus yang memberikan khidmat paliatif seperti para pakar, doktor, jururawat dan sukarelawan paliatif
