Identifying local time scale to determine when the torrential rainfall events occur at a particular location is critically important. This can be detected by observing the trend which is characterized by the shape of time series data in order to detect the abnormally heavy rainfall that can cause torrential rainfall events. One of the methods in identifying the range of local time scale according to the trend is based on Singular Spectrum Analysis (SSA).The variations in the time series observations can be decomposed and reconstructed to locate the time period in which the extreme rainfall events occur when using SSA approach. However, in torrential rainfall time series data, the daily amount of rainfall is approximately similar over a period of time. This situation leads to a problem when using SSA since there are coinciding singular values. It might cause disjoint sets of singular values and different series components to mix up with each other. Besides, using SSA, leading component .....

Kesusasteraan merupakan pancaran pemikiran yang dihasilkan oleh sesuatu bangsa, sama ada dalam bentuk lisan atau bertulis. Kesusasteraan Melayu mendapat pengaruh daripada bahasa dan kesusasteraan Arab dengan kedatangan pedagang Arab di Tanah Melayu. Hal ini membawa kepada lahirnya karya puisi Melayu kesan daripada tradisi sastera Arab. Bertitik tolak dengan keakraban bahasa Arab dengan bangsa Melayu, maka kajian ini dijalankan untuk menganalisis persamaan dan perbezaan konsep puisi tradisional antara kesusasteraan Arab dengan kesusasteraan Melayu. Kajian ini menggunakan pendekatan kepustakaan untuk mengumpul maklumatmaklumat yang berkaitan dengan kajian. Pendekatan perbandingan pula digunakan untuk menganalisis persamaan dan perbezaan konsep puisi tradisional antara kesusasteraan Arab dengan kesusasteraan Melayu. Kajian ini mendapati bahawa terdapat persamaan yang ketara antara puisi Arab dengan puisi Melayu pada penggunaan perkataan yang mempunyai susunan tertentu dan mengandungi unsu.....

Andalusian literature is an integral part of our Arabic literature, and it is rich in its poets, writers, sermons, preachers, and asceticism. We have presented a poet, writer, and ascetic of these who is Ibn Abd Rabbu Al-Andalusi. The research included an introduction and prelude, three topics, a conclusion, and a list of sources and references. The preface dealt with the definition of Ibn Abd Rabbu in terms of birth, lineage, upbringing and its elders and the praise of the evacuees, his works and his death. The first topic talked about the book Al-A'qd Al-Farid, in which it explained the reasons for authoring the book, the method followed, and samples from the first part in books: The Pearl in Sultan and Jumana in Delegations, Al-Zabrjeddah in Al-Ajwad, and Unique in Wars. As for the second topic, it mentioned models of Ibn Abd Rabbu's poems in spinning, praise, and asceticism, and the third topic dealt with the relationship of Ibn Abd Rabbu with his contemporary poet, Yahya Al Qalfat.....

Traffic flow is a continuous phenomenon. The irregular patterns in the traffic flow data show the complexity of the system under a variety of internal and external factors of restrict and influence. As such, local mean prediction method (LMPM) has been employed in order to do prediction. Firstly, traffic flow data has been reconstructed to m-dimensional phase space. Next, the phase space is used to predict traffic flow using chaos approach. The traffic flow data reveals chaotic behaviour through analysis using Cao method. The prediction performance shows that the value of correlation coefficient (CC) is greater than 0.5 for all stations that have been analyzed. The value of CC is good and acceptable due to the complexity of the system. These findings are expected to assist in fulfilling the Road Safety Plan 2014-2020 by the Ministry of Transportation as well as local authorities in traffic management...

Kajian ini dijalankan untuk mengenal pasti pelaksanaan Talaqqi Musyafahah pengajaran al-Quran Kurikulum Dini di Sekolah Agama Bantuan Kerajaan (SABK) Perak, mengenal pasti tahap pencapaian bacaan al-Quran dan hubungan antara pelaksanaan Talaqqi Musyafahah dengan pencapaian bacaan al-Quran pelajar SABK. Maklumat kajian diperolehi melalui kaedah kuantitatif melalui soal selidik dengan melibatkan 304 orang pelajar tingkatan empat SABK di negeri Perak. Data kajian yang dikumpul, diproses dengan menggunakan perisian SPSS versi 22.0. Penemuan kajian menunjukkan bahawa pelaksanaan Talaqqi Musyafahah berada pada tahap tinggi (min=4.15,sp.=0.65) dan pencapaian bacaan al-Quran pelajar adalah tinggi (min=4.28,sp.=0.52). Kajian juga menunjukkan bahawa wujudnya hubungan yang sederhana tinggi (r=0.514,p..

Low-back pain is one of the most common reasons for work stress, poor health, and reducing quality of life. While obesity is a growing public health concern, it was proved that obesity is a risk factor for low-back pain. Whereas obese low-back pain people cannot avoid weight load on the spine in any exercise but they can easily carry out exercise in water. The aim of this study was to know the effect of aquatic exercise on quality of life among obese low-back pain people and specifically if there is significant improvement in exercise group. A total of 39 women with BMI>27 kg.m-2 who had non-specific chronic low-back pain were purposively selected for this study. They randomly assigned in two groups; exercising (N=19, 37.85±5.83 years with 32.97±4.84kg.m-2) and control group (N=20, 40.8±5.25 years with 31.87±4.79 kg.m-2). The exercising group carried out aquatic exercise, twice per week, 60 minutes per session, for 12 weeks. Quality of life was measured using SF-36v2 ques.....

The surge of information in the digital age has impacted social problems. Accordingly, digital citizenship had been discussed mostly within topics related to digital security, IT education. A systematic review is needed to provide an overview for educators and policymakers in Indonesia to address ethical and technical issues to improve the online environment safely. However, there are limited studies that systematically review the existing literature on implementing digital citizenship in Indonesia. The present study was guided by PRISMA review protocol using three databases, i.e., Scopus, Google Scholars, and ProQuest, concerned with digital citizenship, digital competence, digital literacy, and information and communications technology (ICT) skills. There were 205 articles screened; this study obtained 20 articles that fit the predetermined inclusion criteria. This study used content analysis to encode, organize categories, and develop the themes. Based on the thematic analysis, this.....

To preserve the heritage and identity of folk songs of Malaysian ethnic groups, it is necessary to include them in educational material using western notation transcriptions. This research continues from the previous study that was completed with the creation of the method book for viola at the beginner level. The current research result is a repertoire book containing transcriptions of folk songs (six Malay, two Chinese and one Indian) for intermediate viola players. Malaysian folk songs are rich in embellishment types and need to be studied by utilising the western ornamentation signs in music scores. The resulting book introduces the common types of ornamentation signs utilised in Malaysian folk song transcriptions and exercises with notated explanations and practice methods. The book is organised following international requirements for the intermediate viola level. Research was carried out using a quantitative approach, and the ADDIE (Analysis; Design; Development; Implementation;.....

To date, considerable research has been devoted to semipolar (11-22) III-N based-light-emitting diodes due to the high demand for the future generation of high indium adsorption materials. However, higher indium content can generate stacking fault defects and partial dislocation that deteriorate the crystal, morphological, and optical quality. This study describes the effect of indium flux and two-dimensional nanoscale strain periodic alternating superlattices on the surface evolution during the growth of semi-polar (11-22) InGaN light-emitting diodes. Semi-polar (11-22) light-emitting diodes were grown on different templates with and without AlN/GaN strain periodic alternating superlattices. A direct correlation between the surface evolution, crystal quality, and optical properties was demonstrated, suggesting higher indium adsorption with increased crystallinity. Moderate indium flux induced lower surface undulation with intensified photoluminescence emission in the green range. Subs.....
