Design and development of mobile application for parking reservation system
No full textEvery emerging country face the issue of public parking congestion in the urban area. Ignoring the issue would breed a series of problemsfrom traffic disruption to violating the laws related to traffic. In Malaysia, the City Council has made an effort to mitigate the problem by using a coupon -which largely handled manually by the user by purchasing and paying the coupon through a machine. However, the procedure of using a coupon is considered inefficient due to challenges such asextensive time, coupon exploitation and material waste. Therefore, to mitigate the problem surfaced in the current procedure, a mobile application is developed to handle the parking reservation process. The reservation process included the function to view the parking\u27s availability thus presented the user the advantage of reserving parking earlier in the case of parking usage are at the peak. This paper highlighted the requirement identification and design and development phases

Ignoring the issue would breed a series of problems; from traffic disruption to violating the laws related to traffic. In Malaysia, the City Council has made an effort to mitigate the problem by using a coupon - which largely handled manually by the user by purchasing and paying the coupon through a machine. However, the procedure of using a coupon is considered inefficient due to challenges such as; extensive time, coupon exploitation and material waste. Therefore, to mitigate the problem surfaced in the current procedure, a mobile application is developed to handle the parking reservation process. The reservation process included the function to view the parking's availability thus presented the user the advantage of reserving parking earlier in the case of parking usage are at the peak.

Asma Ul Husna interactive courseware: adaptation of multimedia learning principles / Arifah Fasha Rosmani, Ray Adderley JM. Gining and Asiraa Angwar
Get PDFAsma Ul Husna interactive courseware has been developed as an assistive tool intended for primary school students to learn about the 99 names of Allah SWT. The interactive courseware implemented multimedia elements such as text, graphic, audio and animation to assist users' learning process. Additionally, as it is presented with the absence of the traditional face-to face method, the materials are required to be engaging to the users. The 'engaging' requirement is achieved by adopting several multimedia learning principles. The principle of multimedia learning consists of variety of principles which are utilised to develop the design and organisation of multimedia presentations. User Acceptance test has been carried out among primary school students to determine the overall level of acceptance and understanding towards the courseware. Other than that, this test is also conducted to assess the effects of the multimedia learning principles being adopted. The impacts shown by the results are significant as to confirm its benefits to its target users
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
My-Wakaf: A Waqf of Property Management Application
Get PDFIn almost every Islamic country, the number of waqf properties is increasing at an exponential rate. As a result, managing such abundant amount of waqf properties can be very tedious and challenging. In Malaysia, waqf properties is managed by respective State Islamic Religious Council and are still using traditional method of recording all waqf asset. As a result, the My-Wakaf prototype mobile application was created to aid with the workload of managing waqf assets or properties. The methodology used for the project is the Waterfall model that is based on the original System Development Life Cycle (SDLC) that have 5 phases which are Planning, Design, Development, Testing and Documentation phase. My-Wakaf application is developed using Android Studio and it is integrated with Firebase Cloud database to help store waqf assets information securely to be accessed anywhere, reducing the human errors and cost of managing such properties. According to a user acceptability test conducted on numerous responders, the majority of them were highly happy with the My-Wakaf application's general functionality. Finally, it is intended that My-Wakaf would help the Muslim community as a whole by increasing awareness of waqf knowledge and stimulating economic growth
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
