This paper analyses the supply chain and human trafficking in Malaysia by focusing on the Rohingya refugees. In terms of research methodology, a qualitative approach has been chosen and about 20 respondents have been identified based on a purposive sampling technique. There are two types of respondents; they are Rohingya refugees who have been victimised by traffickers and the local enforcement personnel such as the immigration officers. All information from the respondents has been collected using focus group discussions and in-depth interviews. The locations for this study have been held in Kedah, Penang and Kuala Lumpur. Notably, there are two main factors where people become refugees, government persecution and ethnic discrimination. Furthermore, Dalal as human traffickers have taken this opportunity to do business by smuggling Rohingya refugees into Malaysia using an illegal route. The Dalals have also played a vital role in this supply chain of human trafficking and has exploited the Rohingya refugees for their own profit. Therefore, the Malaysian government need to put an effort to fight human trafficking activities in order to stop this crime and to preserve the sovereignty of the country.

The main purpose of this conceptual paper is to propose a holistic framework that could expand the understanding of the real predictors of customer’s satisfaction towards the fast-food industry in Malaysia by applying the Equity Theory. Previous academic studies have identified various aspects that could affect the customer’s satisfaction in the industry. There are numerous local SME fast food entrepreneurs that unable to recognize the predictors, therefore they executing the wrong strategies to attract potential customers. This paper aimed to provide a better understanding towards the identified elements that have been proven by academicians in previous literature about the issue. This study hypothesized four predictors (physical environment, price sensitivity, product quality, and promotion) that could affect the customers’ satisfaction in the SME fast-food business. It is presumed that all predictors are significant in controlling the satisfaction of customers in this study. In order to gain competitive advantages and competitively sustain in the market, a business or company (particularly the small and medium fast-food operators or entrepreneurs) should focus on these four main predictors as it could affect the level of customers’ satisfaction towards the business.

Shyness is a universal problem that happens among students, including engineering students. Shy students have a high introverted trait and they are more suitable to choose a non-social career. However, the career as an engineer requires someone to possess skills and becomes highly competent, besides not shy to communicate and deal with various social situations. This made engineering graduates unemployed and contributed to the unemployment rate of the country. This article discusses the shyness problem and its relevance to the engineering students’ career development. The strategies to eliminate shyness are deliberated in brief based on previous studies. Then, the strategies to eliminate shyness are discussed concerning the engineering students’ career development.

Nowadays, in technology, humans use machines, mobile devices and robots to make the work easier, effective and faster. However, in Malaysia, there is still a lack of underwater vehicles used for inspection or investigation on the seafloor. The aim of this project is to develop the Remotely Operated Unmanned Underwater Vehicle for underwater Inspection (ROU-VUI) which has a compact size and low cost. This mobile device will act as a pre-screening for detecting underwater problems and for explorations where high-resolution cameras are used for real-time monitoring and recording the video for further analysis. The controller used is Arduino microcontroller and MDSS10A smart drive motor to control the movement of the mobile. The graphical user interface (GUI) LabVIEW is designed to make the inspection and monitoring process easier when it is in the water. An operator will observe the underwater vehicle via a camera that links to the smart phone and graphical user interface.

The theory of collections is a necessary mathematical tool. It gives mathematical models for the class of problems that explains with exactness, precision and uncertainty. Characteristically, non crisp set theory is extensional. More often than not, the real life problems inherently involve uncertainties, imprecision and not clear. In particular, such classes of problems arise in economics, engineering, environmental sciences, medical sciences, and social sciences etc. They studied basic operations over the fermatean uncertainty sets. Here we shall introduce three new operations, subtraction, division, and fermatean sum of mean operations over fermatean uncertainty sets. Several researchers have considered q-rung orthopair fuzzy sets as fermatean uncertainty sets (FUSs). The Fuzzy Set Theory approach is found most appropriate for dealing with uncertainties. However, it is short of providing a mechanism on how to set the membership function extremely individualistic. The major reason for these difficulties arising with the above theories is due to the inadequacies of their parameterization tools. In order to overcome these difficulties, in 1999 Molodtsov [7] introduced the concept of soft set as a completely new Mathematical tool with adequate parameterization for dealing with uncertainties. In this area, we introduce the concept of cubic fermatean uncertainty soft set and define cubic fermatean uncertainty soft sub algebra of KU-algebras’ which is applicable in various algebraic structures. In addition, we proved every closed cubic fermatean uncertainty soft ideal is a cubic fermatean uncertainty soft KU-algebra and every closed cubic fermatean uncertainty soft ideal is a cubic fermatean uncertainty soft ideal. Also, we discuss the closed cubic fermatean uncertainty ideal structures on fermatean uncertainty soft set. Finally, we prove that every closed cubic fermatean uncertainty soft ideal of a non-empty set is a cubic fermatean uncertainty soft ideal and converse part is not true with suitable example.

There are different GST rates of Building development material like Granite and Marble. GST rates on Marble and rock stone is forced utilizing the HSN Code. "Orchestrated System of Nomenclature" or basically HSN is a multipurpose item terminology composed by "world traditions association"(Ajay Kumar and Kumar 2017). Our Government utilized HSN code in GST invoicing to meet the tuning of Indian standard with universal Standard. The rock and marble industry is exceptionally divided and disorderly. It has high fares for crude and in addition handled squares. Stone records for about Rs. 13,000 crores of fares and local possibly around the equivalent however some part isn't accounted. This is amassed in Karnataka, Andhra, Orissa and so forth. Marble industry is to a great extent gathered in Rajasthan and Gujarat. India is the biggest maker of normal stone on the planet however China has the most elevated fares, in excess of 2 times the estimation of Indian fares. The (Cushing 1993)esteem included items in this industry duplicate the esteem which is gradually getting in India. .As of now strolling a tightrope, the little scale stone area is probably going to confront amazingly, one more tempest with presentation of Goods and Service Tax from on July 1, 2017. Despite the fact that it is touted as an improved duty framework, the GST could spell fate for the stone business spread crosswise over Karimnagar, Warangal and Khammam. With rock tiles going under the higher section GST rate structure, the industry will confront unstable interest in the universal market. Aside from the business and the vast workforce relied upon it, the customers will likewise need to confront its progressively outstretching influence.

Technological innovations are unending and have impacted almost all, in every aspect of life over the past few decades. One such technological innovation which is capable of revolutionising the world, the most spoken, discussed and implemented in many fields is artificial intelligence. Artificial intelligence (AI) is software which can think intelligently, similar to how an intelligent human thinks. Based on few studies AI is organized into four categories such as, it’s a system that thinks like a human (Haugeland, 1985; Bellman, 1978), think rationally (Charnaik and McDermott, 1985; Winston, 1992), act like a human (Kurzweil, 1990; Rich and Knight, 1991) and act rationally (Schalkoff, 1990; Luger and Stubblefield, 1993). As stated by Bersin (2018) AI is now popping in most of the software’s,and it is integratedinto many of the business functions. One such business function wasthe integration of AI is taking place at a faster pace is Human Resources (HR), concerning various HR functions such as hiring process, onboarding, training to mention a few. Integrating AI in HR does not mean that AI would completely take over the role of HR managersrather this will help the HR’s to focus on more strategic work and less focus on repetitive and low-value add tasks. Hence without a doubt, there is a more nuanced picture of the way in which AI would help to streamline and reshape the HR functions for better efficiency and agility. This paper focuses on qualitative research and aims to explain how AI has been integratedinto different functions of HR and its impact towards the organisations, employees and HRs.

This article presents the frequency band classification of emotions and detection of emotional condition of a person. This is done by the analysis of the biological signal, EEG (Electroencephalogram). The EEG is considered as the main biological signal, which signifies the electrical activity of the human brain and hence becomes main source of information for studying the neurological disorders. This analysis is done using one of the popular virtual instrumentation platform LabVIEW (Laboratory Virtual Instrumentation Engineering workbench) software. The EEG signals that are used for the analysis are taken from the open source database and are undergone different stages like preprocessing for noise elimination, classification and feature extraction. The feature extraction is done by performing Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) of the signal. This analysis helps us to identify the abnormality of the person (if any) from whom the signal is taken.

أن تاريخ الجزائر المعاصر، ولاسيما بعد مرحلة الاستقلال يكشف بوضوح أن هناك أزمات سياسية واقتصادية واجتماعية وثقافية حادة في بعض الأحيان، وهي من آثار المرحلة الاستعمارية على الأغلب، وهناك تحديات قديمة- جديدة، تواجه الهوية العربية الإسلامية في معظم الأقطار المغاربية، بدأت تعبر عن نفسها في النزعة الفرانكوفوتية والنزعة البربرية (الأمازيغية) والنزعة الزنجية، وهذا يعني أن الوحدة الوطنية والهوية لكل قطر مغاربي أصبحت مهددة وبدرجات متفاوتة، ويدفع ذلك الى مزيد من الضعف والتراجع، وتهديد الأمن الثقافي، ناهيك عن التهديدات الأخرى، هذا مما دفع بعض المؤرخين الى قول: "أن فرنسا أدركت أن الاحتلال العسكري لم يؤت ثماره في اخضاع الجزائر، فوجدت في القضية البربرية الوسيلة الوحيدة لتفكيك الوحدة الوطنية ووضع البربر في مواجهة مع العرب بعد إلحاقهم باللغة الفرنسية، ومن ثم الديانة النصرانية".

تناول البحث الاستعمار الفرنسي للجزائر وطبيعة الموقف الوطني منه، إذ أتبع الفرنسيون سياسات مختلفة تجاه أقطار المغرب العربي، ففي الجزائر مثلاً اتبعوا سياسة الإدماج، ومن ثم سياسة الإدارة المشتركة، ونتيجة لذلك ثار الشعب الجزائري في حقب مختلفة ضد هذه السياسة كما يناقش نشأة الأحزاب البربرية في الجزائر، وتتضمن الأحزاب الجزائرية بعد الحرب العالمية الأولى بصورة عامة، وأسباب نشأة الأحزاب البربرية في الجزائر، الأسباب الداخلية المتمثلة بسياسة الحكومات الجزائرية تجاه البربر، وأسباب خارجية تتمثل بسياسة فرنسا ورغبتها في فصل البربر عن العرب وختاما كرس البحث لدراسة أهم الأحزاب البربرية التي ظهرت على الساحة الجزائرية، وموقف هذه الأحزاب من التطورات الداخلية في الجزائر منذ عام 1945 وحتى عام 1992.

The Fig (Ficus carica L.) is a fruit produced worldwide for in in natura consumption and processing. The aim of this work was to evaluate the effect of edible coatings on the post-harvest qualities of fig fruit. The experiment was conducted at the Instituto Federal Goiano – Urutaí Campus, using figs from a orchard in the municipality of Silvania-GO. The fruits, after washing and sanitization, received edible coatings (polysaccharide, protein and lipid), constituting the treatments together with the control treatment (without cover). The fruits were stored for six days at a temperature of 25 ± 2 º C, in a completely randomized design with 5 replications. Sensory parameters (appearance, aroma and flavor) and physicochemical (weight loss, titratable acidity, soluble solids, ratio, pH and diameter) were analyzed at 0, 3 and 6 days of storage. The data obtained were submitted to MANOVA analysis and the treatments were compared using ellipses of 95% of confidence. The fig fruits, of all treatments, showed no variation of soluble solids over time (10 º Brix), and did not present aroma and alcoholic flavor. For the other variables analyzed there were variations, highlighting the lipid coatings, which maintained better fruit qualities over time, differentiating from the other treatments. The polysaccharide and proteic coatings presented identical behavior, this, intermediate to the lipid coatings and to the control treatment. In the conditions that the study was carried out, there was a rapid loss of fruit quality and, among the covers, the lipid minimized these losses.

ABSTRACTThis study aims to determine effective management patterns to control Sclerotium rot and to improvepeat soil fertility with the application of the Trichoderma sp + Aspergillus sp consortium.as biologicalagents and P solvents, combined with spacing arrangements in the cultivation of scallion in peatlands.The study used a factorial randomized block design consisting of two factors with four replications.Factor I Application of biological agents consists of: A0 = No biological agents; A1 = Consortium ofTrichoderma sp. + Aspergillus sp; Factor II Plant spacing, consisting of J1 = 20x25 cm; J2 = 25x25cm and J3 = 30x25 cm. The results showed that the interaction treatment of Trichoderma sp. +Aspergillus sp. and spacing of 25x25 cm effectively suppresses the incidence of white rot disease(Sclerotium cepivorum Berk) up to 34.02%, while at a spacing of 20x25 cm with the application ofTrichoderma sp. + Aspergillus sp. produced the highest fresh plant weight of 8.80 kg plot-1 or 24.44tons hectares-1. Increasing the number of leaves is only influenced by a single factor of biologicalagents (23.29%) and spacing of 25x25 cm (19.7%). Application of Trichoderma sp. + Aspergillus sp.can increase the nutrient content of N, P (total and available), K and peat soil organic matter.Consortium of biological agents Trichoderma sp. and Aspergillus sp. indigenous have the potential tobe developed as biological agents and biofertilizers, with optimum spacing can be applied to themanagement of scallion cultivation in peatlands.Key words: Sclerotium cepivorum Berk, scallion, Trichoderma sp. and Aspergillus sp., spacing

Konsep-konsep pendidikan modern hari ini dipenuhi dengan pandangan para akademisi Barat yang notabenenya bukan beragama Islam. Sebagai umat Muslim kita pantas bertanya sekaligus menguji apakah pemahaman tersebut telah sesuai dengan yang dikehendaki oleh ajaran Islam. Tujuan dari penulisan ini ialah untuk menguji keselarasan pemahaman pembelajaran efektif sebagaimana yang dikaji oleh pakar Barat dengan ajaran-ajaran Islam melalui pendekatan konsep Wahyu Memandu Ilmu. Setelah dianalisis, dapat disimpulkan bahwa meskipun belum bisa menampung secara keseluruhan dari makna-makna edukatif yang terkandung dalam sumber sakral dan khazanah Islam, pemahaman pembelajaran efektif yang dipahami oleh akademisi Barat tidaklah bertentangan dengan nilai-nilai ajaran Islam.
An investigation on the drag reduction performance of bioinspired pipeline surfaces with transverse microgrooves

Published: January 2020

A novel surface morphology for pipelines using transverse microgrooves was proposed in order to reduce the pressure loss of fluid transport. Numerical simulation and experimental research efforts were undertaken to evaluate the drag reduction performance of these bionic pipelines. It was found that the vortex ‘cushioning’ and ‘driving’ effects produced by the vortexes in the microgrooves were the main reason for obtaining a drag reduction effect. The shear stress of the microgrooved surface was reduced significantly owing to the decline of the velocity gradient. Altogether, bionic pipelines achieved drag reduction effects both in a pipeline and in a concentric annulus flow model. The primary and secondary order of effect on the drag reduction and optimal microgroove geometric parameters were obtained by an orthogonal analysis method. The comparative experiments were conducted in a water tunnel, and a maximum drag reduction rate of 3.21% could be achieved. The numerical simulation and experimental results were cross-checked and found to be consistent with each other, allowing to verify that the utilization of bionic theory to reduce the pressure loss of fluid transport is feasible. These results can provide theoretical guidance to save energy in pipeline transportations.

Published: January 2020

We present atomic hydrogen (H i) observations using the Robert C. Byrd Green Bank Telescope along the lines of sight to 27 low surface brightness (LSB) dwarf galaxy candidates discovered in optical searches around M101. We detect H i reservoirs in five targets and place stringent upper limits on the remaining 22, implying that they are gas-poor. The distances to our H i detections range from 7 to 150 Mpc, demonstrating the utility of wide-bandpass H i observations as a follow-up tool. The systemic velocities of three detections are consistent with that of the NGC 5485 group behind M101, and we suggest that our 15 nondetections with lower distance limits from the optical are associated with and have been stripped by that group. We find that the gas richness of confirmed M101 satellites are broadly consistent with those of the Milky Way satellites, as well as with those of satellites around other hosts of comparable mass, when survey completeness is taken into account. This suggests that satellite quenching and gas stripping proceed similarly around halos of similar mass, in line with theoretical expectations.
Redshift Determinations from a Self-consistent Grid-based Lens Model for the Hubble Frontiers Field Cluster RXC J2248.7−4431 (AS1063)

We present an iterative method to construct a freeform lens model that self-consistently reproduces the sky positions, geometrically inferred redshifts, and relative brightnesses of all multiply lensed images toward a galaxy cluster. This method is applied to the cluster RXC J2248.7−4431 (z = 0.348) from the Hubble Frontier Fields program, toward which 10 multiply lensed sources with accurate spectroscopic redshifts and 6 others with inexact photometric redshifts have been identified. Using the spectroscopically secure systems to define an initial lens model, we compute the geometric redshifts of the photometric systems. We then iterate the lens model by incorporating the photometric systems at redshifts shifted by incremental amounts toward their geometric redshifts inferred from the previous step; on convergence, we find geometric redshifts in good agreement with the spectroscopically determined redshifts, but they can depart significantly from the photometrically determined redshifts. In the final lens model, all 16 lensed sources tightly follow the cosmological form of the angular diameter distance relation. Furthermore, although they are not used as model constraints, our lens model predicts relative brightnesses between image pairs for a given set of multiply lensed images in reasonable agreement with observations, thus providing independent validation of this model. Our method for inferring the redshifts and intrinsic brightnesses of multiply lensed sources will become especially important in the era of the James Webb Space Telescope, when deep infrared detections will typically be unmatched optically such that photometric redshifts will be very uncertain.
A New Sample of (Wandering) Massive Black Holes in Dwarf Galaxies from High-resolution Radio Observations

Published: January 2020

We present a sample of nearby dwarf galaxies with radio-selected accreting massive black holes (BHs), the majority of which are non-nuclear. We observed 111 galaxies using sensitive, high-resolution observations from the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA) in its most extended A-configuration at X band (∼8–12 GHz), yielding a typical angular resolution of ∼0.″25 and rms noise of ∼15 μJy. Our targets were selected by crossmatching galaxies with stellar masses M
⋆ ≤ 3 × 109 M
⊙ and redshifts z < 0.055 in the NASA-Sloan Atlas with the VLA Faint Images of the Radio Sky at Twenty centimeters Survey. With our new high-resolution VLA observations, we detect compact radio sources toward 39 galaxies and carefully evaluate possible origins for the radio emission, including thermal H II regions, supernova remnants, younger radio supernovae, background interlopers, and active galactic nuclei (AGNs) in the target galaxies. We find that 13 dwarf galaxies almost certainly host active massive BHs, despite the fact that only one object was previously identified as having optical signatures of an AGN. We also identify a candidate dual radio AGN in a more massive galaxy system. The majority of the radio-detected BHs are offset from the center of the host galaxies, with some systems showing signs of interactions/mergers. Our results indicate that massive BHs need not always live in the nuclei of dwarf galaxies, confirming predictions from simulations. Moreover, searches attempting to constrain BH seed formation using observations of dwarf galaxies need to account for such a population of “wandering” BHs.
