The study adopted a quantitative approach using questionnaire as the survey instrument. The sample comprised of Bumiputera potential entrepreneurs who had attended entrepreneurial development courses at Universiti Teknologi MARA. A self-developed questionnaire was distributed to 400 respondents of whom, 288 (72%) responded. Findings revealed that respondents perceive themselves to be knowledgeable in all the four components of information gathering, but are more knowledgeable in compiling information than in searching information, retrieving information, and identifying information needs. They consider gathering business information to be very important and perceive identifying information needs and searching for information relatively more important than retrieving information and compiling information. They also perceive themselves to be knowledgeable in managing business information. They are relatively more knowledgeable in using information than in storing information, disseminating information, and organising information. They consider managing business information to be very important and perceived using information to be very important followed by storing information, organising information and disseminating information. The level of knowledge in gathering and managing business information is found to be the same regardless of education level and age. The level of knowledge in gathering information and that in managing information are positively and fairly strongly correlated. The level of importance in gathering information and level of importance in managing information are positively and fairly strongly correlated. The findings of the study will be useful to supporting agencies related to entrepreneurship in Malaysia.","PeriodicalId":358440,"journal":{"name":"2011 IEEE Symposium on Business, Engineering and Industrial Applications (ISBEIA)","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117246869","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The physical properties of the particleboard panel were tested for its moisture content, density and dimensional changes. In collaboration with Signature Kitchen Sdn. Bhd., twenty-eight (28) houses in Kuala Lumpur and Selangor were selected for the assessment. Six particleboard panels chose randomly from the twenty-eight sites were cut into specific dimension and exposed to the air-conditioned room environment (20°C and 65% RH) and on-site condition (31.3°C and 72% RH). Overall, moisture content was 7.73%, which is 40% lower than the maximum requirement and the density of the panel was 14% higher than the standard requirement. Meanwhile, the dimensional changes in thickness were 81% higher than length. In length, the mean changes was just 0.07 mm compared to the thickness, 0.36 mm. Therefore, all panels collected and tested have met the moisture content, density and dimensional changes specifications under the testing procedures defined by European Union (EN) standard BS EN 312:2003.","PeriodicalId":358440,"journal":{"name":"2011 IEEE Symposium on Business, Engineering and Industrial Applications (ISBEIA)","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129608036","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Fault protection became important issues in order to present an efficient FTTH network and simultaneously and provide continuous services to the end user without being interrupted by any failure in fiber lines. The failure at optical lines will give two negative impacts. First, the fiber cut will cause optical leakage that is able to damage our eyes. Second, an interruption will occur during the distribution of multimedia service to customers for a long period of time. In the traditional method, when there is a breakdown in FTTH lines, the engineer must go to the failure location to check the optical cable using an optical time-domain reflect meter (OTDR). The disadvantage of this conventional method is that the engineer must leave the Central Office to inject a laser from customer location. It will cause inconvenience, service disruption and waste valuable time for both parties. We proposed optical sensor integrated with wireless sensor network to determine the condition of all optical lines in FTTH network. This system is capable to monitor the condition of all optical lines and make automatic switching for restoration purpose. Every sensor will be put in every line and can communicate each others to ensure the operation of network. One receiver is located in Central Office (CO) to allow engineer to monitor and control all optical lines.","PeriodicalId":358440,"journal":{"name":"2011 IEEE Symposium on Business, Engineering and Industrial Applications (ISBEIA)","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125457394","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The BAA is a waste material that is taken from electric coal power plant and the basic source material of WBAA is a treated bottom ash. The BAA is fully submerged in clean and clear water for 3 days to produce a WBAA with low amount of carbon. This WBAA with low carbon composition is utilised to produce concrete with less percentage of carbon usage. Low amount of carbon can reduce energy in building, reduce environmental impact and can be supported to green material in concrete. So that, this two types of bottom ash were studied their physical properties and then compared. The aim of the study is to investigate the physical comparison of BAA and WBAA in producing concrete or concrete applications. The results of the sieve analysis and fineness modulus of BAA and WBAA were discussed. The calculated of fineness modulus of BAA and WBAA are 4.93 and 3.65 respectively, which are more than 3.5 and it is considered very coarse. Finally, it is concluded that this both aggregate is potential for utilise in concrete and mortar or concrete/mortar application.","PeriodicalId":358440,"journal":{"name":"2011 IEEE Symposium on Business, Engineering and Industrial Applications (ISBEIA)","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132788419","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With a systematic performance monitoring system, resources will be channeled sufficiently and tasks may be completed effectively. Therefore, the main objective of the research is to use data envelopment analysis (DEA) to measure the performance efficiency of the academic departments in a faculty in a public university in Malaysia. Two inputs and three outputs which strongly influence the efficiency of the academic departments were selected. The second objective is to rank the academic departments according to their performance efficiencies. The final objective is to uplift the efficiency score of the less efficient department. In general, all academic departments in the faculty recorded a high level of efficiency of above 90%. The academic departments with perfect efficiency score were considered as the benchmark departments. By means of the reference set obtained in the output, the improvement strategies recommended to the less efficient academic departments are to reduce its Input 1 and to increase its Output 3.","PeriodicalId":358440,"journal":{"name":"2011 IEEE Symposium on Business, Engineering and Industrial Applications (ISBEIA)","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133847460","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
