The petroleum industry produces both toxic and non-toxic wastes at almost all stages of production. While petroleum companies satisfy market demand, they also want to meet consumers’ moral and ethical demands. Hence, CSR has become vital for the development of the companies as a whole. While CSR initiatives have the potential to bring many benefits to any business, their impact on customer satisfaction has remained a mystery. This study sets out to explore how petroleum companies can harness the full potential of CSR to communicate, integrate, and organize their projects effectively through CSR implementation to uncover how it can significantly boost customer satisfaction in Malaysian petroleum companies. Drawing on the latest insights from the Theory of CSR, Stakeholder Theory, and Social Influence Theory, this study takes a quantitative approach to fill crucial gaps in the CSR literature and provide valuable insights into the links between CSR activities and consumer behavior. 6 hypotheses were established for the activities and CSR Mechanisms on customer satisfaction. The research model was tested using Structural equation modeling of partial least square with the SmartPLS 3.0 software. The findings of this research can directly contribute to good management practices as the study can help managers appreciate how consumers understand the company’s CSR initiatives and the effect it has on customer satisfaction. Hence, this research can help build responsible managers.","PeriodicalId":470141,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Technology: IJ Tech","volume":" 33","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135813723","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 authors aim to develop an optical fiber sensor for water salinity detection. The sensor employs the principles of absorption spectroscopy using a broadband light source and spectrometer to detect changes in the optical spectrum of the sensor in the presence of varying concentrations of sodium chloride ions. A D-shaped sensor is fabricated by modifying the circular structure of a plastic optical fiber. Functionalized carbon nanotubes are drop casted over the D-shaped sensing region. Both uncoated and CNT-coated POF sensors are exposed to different concentrations of sodium chloride in water, and the spectral response is recorded. The results show that the sensors exhibited a strong correlation in their intensity response towards varying concentrations of sodium chloride salt ranging from 0 to 25%. The uncoated sensor had a sensitivity of 31A.U./% salt, and the CNT-coated Sensor had a sensitivity of 114 A.U/% salt. The functionalized CNT layer increased the sensitivity of the POF sensor by approximately 4 times. The outcome of this research provides a cost-effective and reliable method for water salinity detection in industrial and environmental applications.","PeriodicalId":470141,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Technology: IJ Tech","volume":"46 5","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135863815","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}

Despite years of accumulated experience and a significant increase in the number of certified project managers, the success rate of construction projects remains relatively low. This study aims to explore possible determinants for collaborative project management success and validate the framework in the context of the Malaysian construction industry. Specifically, the study tested project management maturity, decision-making management, knowledge management, organizational culture, coordination, and PM certification as antecedents for collaborative project management success. The study adopted a quantitative research approach and used a close-ended questionnaire as the data collection instrument. The questionnaires were distributed to local project practitioners, and the 232 responses were analyzed using Partial Least Squares of the Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The empirical evidence indicates significant relationships between the identified determinants and project management success. The study's findings can be applied to manage construction projects or any other collaborative project and also contribute to the project management body of knowledge and elaboration of Coordination Theory application in home construction projects. However, emerging challenges to PM in the post-COVID era suggest that further studies on PM success factors are necessary.","PeriodicalId":470141,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Technology: IJ Tech","volume":"2020 7","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135813847","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}

Subjective information from the text can be extracted using sentiment analysis by recognizing its context and position. Data from a variety of sources, like social network comments, news stories, consumer reviews, and more, can be used for sentiment analysis. Sentiment analysis uses different algorithms to analyze words, phrases, and context available in text and different procedures to determine the overall sentiment communicated. There are various ways in which sentiment analysis is performed, ranging from rule-based methods that use lists of positive and negative terms as labeled data for training machine learning algorithms to building classifiers. Understanding social sentiment, underlying intents, and responses to various characteristics of humans can be done with the help of sentiment analysis, which helps in decision-making. The primary goal of this work is to provide the audience with the knowledge needed to understand sentiment analysis, highlight potential opportunities and challenges, and investigate recent studies that have been published in reputable resources focusing on the field of sentiment analysis in NLP.","PeriodicalId":470141,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Technology: IJ Tech","volume":"2019 30","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135813867","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}

OAM beams are orthogonal and can be multiplexed to increase link capacity in different scenarios. The collective combination of radio OAM modes and OFDM modulations in outdoor conditions has not been extensively explored. This paper depicts an analysis of multiple OAM modes transmitted as narrowband subcarriers using orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) modulation with outdoor free space optical channel measurements based on OAM modes. OAM-OFDM simulations were conducted to investigate the performance of QPSK, 16QAM, and 64QAM baseband modulation and demodulation mechanisms, with code rates ½ and ¾ respectively. Four outdoor OAM free space optical channel characteristics parameters were applied. The throughput, bit error rate (BER), and packet error rate (PER) were evaluated. The results show that OAM +4 Mode outperforms other OAM modes in terms of BER and PER. In terms of the throughput, 64 QAM at code rate ¾ outperforms other coding schemes and code rates, for all OAM modes.","PeriodicalId":470141,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Technology: IJ Tech","volume":"2020 25","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135814025","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 rapid increase in demand urges the authorities to search for a more systematic way to control durian cultivation and manage the productivity and quality of the fruit. This research paper proposes a deep-learning approach for detecting and sizing durian fruit in any given image. The aim is to develop zero-shot learning models that can accurately identify and measure the size of durian fruits in images, regardless of the image’s background. The proposed methodology leverages two cutting-edge models: Grounding DINO and Segment Anything (SAM), which are trained using a limited number of samples to learn the essential features of the fruit. The dataset used for training and testing the model includes various images of durian fruits captured from different sources. The effectiveness of the proposed model is evaluated by comparing it with the Segmentation Generative Pre-trained Transformers (SegGPT) model. The results show that the Grounding DINO model, which has a 92.5% detection accuracy, outperforms the SegGPT in terms of accuracy and efficiency. This research has significant implications for computer vision and agriculture, as it can facilitate automated detection and sizing of durian fruits, leading to improved yield estimation, quality control, and overall productivity.","PeriodicalId":470141,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Technology: IJ Tech","volume":" 10","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135863145","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}

Traditional architectural forms in these paintings have been a focal point for experts in Chinese architecture. Despite emerging studies highlighting the value of exploring these ancient architectural forms, few studies have analyzed the internal forces behind the development of ancient Chinese architecture through Jiehua paintings. However, this is vital for studying the continuity of contemporary Chinese architectural culture. This study aims to explore the elements crucial to the evolution and continuation of traditional Chinese architectural culture in contemporary architectural design by analyzing the evolution of traditional Chinese architectural forms within different historical periods and their historical causes. An in-depth literature review enabled the selection of 12 representative Jiehua paintings from various historical periods as samples. The evolution of traditional Chinese architectural forms in these paintings was documented using visual observation methods, and Panofsky's theoretical framework of iconography was used to help explain and understand the historical causes of ancient Chinese architectural forms. The study results show that regional cultural conditions significantly impact traditional Chinese architectural forms, and the main elements affecting the expression of architectural locality include geography, cultural traditions, and economic development. This finding will shed light on the inheritance of traditional Chinese architectural culture and the innovative direction of contemporary architectural forms.","PeriodicalId":470141,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Technology: IJ Tech","volume":" 33","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135813600","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 IoT health system connects devices wirelessly to collect and analyze health data, monitor vital signs and physical activity, and provide real-time insights to improve health management. This paper aims to monitor real-time conditions as well as ensure the safety of senior citizens by developing a low-cost wearable prototype device to measure heart pulses, detect falls, and determine their actual location in an indoor space. The data is uploaded to IoT platforms like Blynk, Firebase, and Google Assistant, providing frequent updates on the elderly's health status and conditions and sending emergency messages, if necessary, to an Android application. A home control system is also developed to control the home appliances using mobile phones or voice control.
