Many double auction frameworks have been proposed for cloud service negotiations [1]. However, the frameworks are not able to accommodate both the heterogeneous cloud services and multi-attributes negotiation simultaneously. Therefore, this paper proposed a double-auction framework to accommodate heterogeneous cloud services and multi-attributes negotiation. The study postulated four activities namely literature review, cloud service marketplace investigation, data formulation and double auction-based negotiation framework development. The market requirements, auction requirements and two new mechanisms of a double auction framework have been proposed  ..

An integration of technology into teaching financial literacy can promote students’ learning interest. The aim of this study is to develop a financial literacy cybergogy model to promote human values, practices and accountability among secondary school students. This study employed survey design and consisted of two stages: 1. develop the questionnaire; 2. develop and examine the construct of the model. The confirmatory factor analysis measurement model 1 with four latent variables, accountability, decision making, human value and practices was constructed with 24 items. The FLC measurement model 1 did not meet threshold, a revision was needed. The revised FLC measurement model 2 presented Chi-square/df=2.186, GFI=.936, AGFI=.903, CFI=.900, RMSEA =.060, and all the values fitted within the acceptable value. This indicated an acceptable model fit. After producing a good.....

Recent statistic shows that 525,832 children are registered as KAFA students in Malaysia. This proves that KAFA School under the supervision of JAKIM has gained the trust of Muslim parents to send their children to learn about Islam in their early childhood. However, a large number of them are also at risk of obtaining inaccurate information about Islam if the sources of references do not provide the authentic information about Islam. The purpose of this study is to identify the authenticity of the Prophetic traditions (had?ths) that are referred to in the KAFA Worship Textbook used by the students. This study is a qualitative study using the method of takhrij of had?th (had?th verification) in which the had?ths are examined and evaluated for their validity based on the comments of the scholars on its chain of narrators and its texts.

Rainfall data are the most significant values in hydrology and climatology modelling. However, the datasets are prone to missing values due to various issues. This study aspires to impute the rainfall missing values by using various imputation method such as Replace by Mean, Nearest Neighbor, Random Forest, Non-linear Interactive Partial Least-Square (NIPALS) and Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC). Daily rainfall datasets from 48 rainfall stations across east-coast Peninsular Malaysia were used in this study. The dataset were then fed into Multiple Linear Regression (MLR) model. The performance of abovementioned methods were evaluated using Root Mean Square Method (RMSE), Mean Absolute Error (MAE) and Nash-Sutcliffe Efficiency Coefficient (CE). The experimental results showed that RF coupled with MLR (RF-MLR) approach was attained as more fitting for satisfying the missing data in east-coast Peninsular Malaysia.  ..

The healthcare industry is shifting towards customer-focused similar to other service industries. The healthcare service providers and theorists have developed various measurement tools of customer experience (CE) to sustain the business. However, there are still unresolved issues related to CE measurement tools in the healthcare context need to be addressed. First, CE measurement tools still fail to capture the customers’ journey towards healthcare service experiences truly. Second, the relevant variables representing each phase of CE, as well as their interrelationships, have rarely been explored and examined in the healthcare service industry. Thus, this research aims to develop and validate a CE measurement model by considering the relevant variables by representing three phases of customers’ journey towards healthcare service delivery, namely cognitive, affective, and behaviour responses (CAB-CE). This research was conducted at Malaysian public hospitals. The customers who exp.....
