    Online Community is a web application that provides a complete and efficient communication environment for the online user. Any online user can create a community to connect a group of online users. Therefore, online user can create a private area to share their information and knowledge with other online user in the secure environment. Online community can be divided into 3 main modules Online Information System, Administration System and Online Chatting System. This project is focus on the on the Online Chatting System. Online Chatting System is a java Chat application that based on the Online Community. The main purpose of online chatting system is providing a chatting environment for community member. Group meeting can take place in real time using Online Chatting System. The Online Chatting System will enable the Community member to have a more pleasant charting environment by leveraging on the benefits of the Internet to provide a virtual discussion place on World Wide Web. Online Chatting System can be divided into 2 main users ordinary member and administrator (normal administrator and super administrator). The ordinary member is the member join the community and their function is limited. An ordinary community member can have public chat, private conversation and view the other member profile function. In the administrator side, the administrator can different into normal administrator and super administrator. The normal administrator is also called Community Manager or Chat Master. The normal administrator is the community member who firstly creates the community. The normal administrator has more powerful function and privilege, A normal administrator can have public chat, private conversation, Chat watch, Chat Broadcast, Chat Monitor, kick and ban ordinary users. The Super administrator is along Online Chatting System Server on the same host. Therefore, super administrator has most powerful function to maintain the Online Community web site's performance. A Super administrator also called Chat Commander in the Online Chatting System

    The waste stabilization pond system in Taman Kota Permai, Seberang Perai Tengah, Penang consisting of two facultative ponds in parallel and a maturation pond connected to each of them in series is being used to treat domestic sewage. This study investigates the removal efficiency of trace metals (Zn, Cu, Pb, and Cd) and their speciation in this stabilization pond system. The percentage of the removal of the dissolved heavy metal concentrations throughout the treatment path from the raw sewage to the final effluent was for zinc (79%), copper (63%), lead (73%) and cadmium (66%). The removal efficiency of these heavy metals was found to be most obvious in the facultative ponds. The mean percentages of the removal of these heavy metal concentrations in these ponds were zinc (65%), copper (50%), lead (64%) and cadmium (49%). Trace metals species are differentiated utilizing anodic stripping voltammetry (ASV) and their labilities towards ammonium form chelex resin in successive column and batch procedures. Species are classified as being ASV-labile, moderately labile, slowly labile and inert. It was observed that there was some reduction in the percentage of ASV-labile species and moderately labile species along the treatment path. However, there was an increase in the percentage of the other two species. This phenomenon could be due to the formation of complexes with organic matters

    从教育理念的来源、内涵、治校方略及其成效四方面来探析郭秉文与林文庆的办学理念,二者虽然留学国别、所学专业不同,但均深受西方高等教育和中国文化的影响,办学理念颇有契合之处。其核心内涵,一为传统的“大学之道“;二是“和平“、“平等“的文化观。在办学方针与宗旨上,郭秉文的“四个平衡“办学方针与林文庆的十项《校旨》精神内涵基本一致。在学科建设中,二者以综合大学为目标,但在基础学科与应用学科发展上有所偏重。在管理模式上,均实行董事会制,但有国立大学与私立大学职权之分。两位校长成功的办学实践,印证了“天下同归而殊途,一致而百虑“这一古老的真理。This paper analyzes the similarities and differences between Guo Bingwen's and Lim Boon Keng's educational thoughts from four aspects: source of education idea,connotation,management strategy and efficiency.Though they studied different majors in different western countries,they both were deeply influenced by the western higher education and Chinese culture.Therefore their educational ideas were quite similar,which were underlain by two basic principles: the traditional taoism of university management and the cultural perspective of peace or equality.About the educational policy and the objective,Guo Bing Wen's "four balances" policy overlapped with Lim Boon Keng's "ten purposes".With regard to the discipline construction,they both took a comprehensive university as the goals,though one emphasized the basic subjects and the other stressed the applied disciplines.Concerning the management pattern,they both took the system of school board.The accomplishments of the two presidents demonstrate the truth of "reaching the same goal by different routes and achieving the purpose through different ways of thinking."国家社会科学基金“十一五”规划2010年度教育学一般课题“中国近代大学通识教育与创新人才培养”(BAA100015)成果之

    A comparative study between Cu and Pb in the speciation study of heavy metals in a stabilization pond treating household wastewater / Lim Boon Tik

    The waste stabilization pond system in Taman Kota Permai, Seberang Perai Tengah, Penang consisting of two facultative ponds in parallel and a maturation pond connected to each of them in series is being used to treat domestic sewage. This study investigates the removal efficiency of trace metals (Cu and Pb) and their speciation in the particulate of this stabilization pond system. The percentages of removal efficiencies of trace particulate heavy metals along the treatment path were 62% for Cu and 65% for Pb. The speciation of particulate heavy metals was carried out according to the procedure which partitions particulate trace metals into five fractions, namely, (a) exchangeable, (b) bound to carbonates, (c) bound to Fe-Mn oxides, (d) bound to organic matter and (e) residual. The results showed that Pb appeared mainly in the bound to Fe-Mn oxides fraction. The percentage distribution of Pb in this fraction in the particulates of the final effluents was 69 %. However, Cu was mainly found in the bound to organic matter fraction and its percentage distribution was 64%. The results also shows that Pb is more mobile than Cu. The percentages associated with mobile phase is 80% for Pb while the mobile phase for Cu is 34% only

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
