Critical Success Factors (CSF) for ERP : Hospital University Science Malaysia (HUSM) / Azwani Awang
No full textThis research project involves an investigation and identification of critical success factors (CSF) in the ERP system exists in Hospital University Science Malaysia (HUSM). The environment of HUSM is divided into two, which are the hospital environment and the university environment. This research is mostly focusing on the university environment. This research is done based on an extensive literature review done recently. From the extensive literature review, 20 unique CSF in the model were identified. However none of these factors focused specifically on the system in HUSM. The ERP model developed is divided into 4 factors for consideration, which are strategic factors, the organizational context, tactical factors, and technological context. It was found that interviewed discussed 16 of the 29 factors identified from literature, and also addressing 4 new factors that were not identified earlier in the literature. These new factors concerned competitive edge, service for students, knowledge management and system ownership. It was also found that although 5 of the factors were addressed, some of the factors were addressed more frequently than others during the interviews. This research gave an important insight into the implementation school of IS while adding theory and knowledge with a focus on ERP implementation within a university environment (livari 1991). Therefore it is hoped that future ERP implementations can draw upon and learn from this research project. The author calls for a further investigation into the relationships between the different factors found to contribute to the possibility of a successful ERP implementation in a university environment and a future comparison between different ERP implementations in other university sites and the differences in the CSF's that might exist
A Systematic Review on the Local Wisdom of Indigenous People in Nature Conservation
No full textThe local wisdom of indigenous people in nature conservation plays a critical part in protecting the planet’s biodiversity and the overall health of the ecosystems. However, at the same time, indigenous people and their lands are facing immense threats through modernization and globalization. This study aims to systematically review and analyze the local wisdom of the indigenous people in nature conservation. The present study integrated multiple research designs, and the review was based on the published standard, namely the PRISMA statement (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses). This study used Web of Science (WoS) and Scopus as the main databases in searching for the required articles. Through content analysis, this study can be divided into seven main categories: (a) forest management, (b) flora and fauna conservation, (c) food security, (d) water management, (e) land management, (f) weather forecasting, and (g) others. The findings offer some basics on how academics can adopt and adapt the existing local wisdom of indigenous people in nature conservation into the scientific framework and design to answer the Sustainable Development 2030 Agenda
Biomonitoring Potentially Toxic Elements (PTEs) Using Lichen Transplant Usnea misaminensis: A Case Study from Malaysia
No full textUrban air pollution has been a major concern due to its impact on global public health. Various techniques for monitoring urban air quality have been developed. However, there is currently a dearth of research on how effective bioaccumulators such as lichen are at monitoring urban air pollution. As a result, the purpose of this research is to investigate the use of U. misaminensis as a biological indicator for biomonitoring urban air quality in Malaysia. Three months were spent exposing lichen samples in three Malaysian cities (Kuala Lumpur, Penang, and Johor Bahru). The trace element content and vitality of the lichens were assessed. The results of this study revealed that U. misaminensis is an effective biological indicator for measuring 25 elements of air pollutants in metropolitan areas. They also revealed that all 25 elements accumulated in the urban area sample were greater than in the control sample. The vitality rate of lichens dropped in the urban area sample when compared with the control sample, indicating that an increase in elements in the air will impact the vitality rate of any biological component. In this study, two arguments are made: (a) Lichen is an excellent biological indicator, particularly for urban air pollutants such as potentially toxic elements; and (b) traffic is the primary contributor to urban air pollution; hence, the local government requires a better plan and design for urban areas to decrease air pollutants build-up
