It is crucial for every country to sustain and enrich their traditional music as very little written documentation is published. Many have mentioned that traditional music is taught orally through listening, observing, and playing. Skills of playing and knowledge are shared verbally within the community. The objectives of this research are focused on: 1) to identify patterns of playing in Malay gamelan; 2) to identify the techniques of teaching of Malay gamelan; and 3) to evaluate the selflearning module of Malay gamelan in teaching and learning. Observations conducted by the researchers indicate that Malay gamelan music has always been performed differently in terms of technical aspects in playing, especially during classes as well as in competitions. There is no standardized techniques and patterns in Malay gamelan playing. The reason for this because most traditional instruments in Malaysia are still taught orally although there is a guideline to be followed. In order to develop and.....

Proses penciptaan sebuah karya bermula daripada pengalaman batin pengarang melihat kehidupannya dari aspek sosial, budaya, politik, ekonomi, keagamaan, moral, mahupun gender. Lantaran itu, hasil penulisannya itu yang sering kali diwarnai dan didasari oleh oleh sikap, latar belakang dan keyakinan dan kepercayaan pengarang itu sendiri. Salah satu aspek yang menarik untuk kita kaji dalam karya yang dihasilkan ialah kehadiran watak dan perwatakan wanita. Kajian ini bertitik tolak daripada kesedaran bahawa karya-karya sastera oleh pengarang lelaki sering menggambarkan wanita dengan tidak adil. Oleh itu, penelitian ini cuba menyelami sejauhmana pendirian ini menonjol dalam karya Re. Karthigesu dan melihat adakah kebenaran dalam tanggapan seumpama ini. Di samping itu, kajian ini juga cuba mendekati watak dan perwatakan wanita dalam novel Anthima kaalam membuktikan bahawa wanita mempunyai imej, pengalaman, suara, keinginan, wawasan, bahasa dan budaya mereka yang dicemari oleh ketidakadilan.

Education plays an important role in a society. Each and every country around the globe has its own education system to educate their own society. In this way, Malaysia has its own education system. Here, students undergo education in different stages such as, kindergarten (pre-school), primary school (elementary), secondary school (high), and college or university. Of these, kindergarten, primary and secondary educations are in schools. School education is basic for a child. Hence, teacher role is very essential in teaching and learning process. Sultan Idris Education University is No.1 Education University which produces a lot of teachers and are been posted as teachers in various parts of the country. Thus posted teachers teach in secondary schools in Malaysia. The main objective of this study is to evaluate the pedagogy knowledge of the secondary school teachers using testing and evaluation theory. The study is limited to the Perak state teachers of Malaysia. The researcher has use.....

Sains perubatan hari ini menyatakan bahawa pembentukan janin terhasil daripadapersenyawaan antara sperma dan ovum. Dalam hal ini, air mani perempuan  yang dikeluarkan ketika hubungan jenis tidak mempunyai sebarang fungsi dalam pembentukan janin kerana air mani perempuan tidak mempunyai kromosom berbeza dengan air mani lelaki. Walaubagaimanapun, Imam Nawawiy ketika membuat huraian terhadap hadith Nabi s.a.w. ( ??? ??? ( ???? ????? ?? ??? ????? ???? ???? ???? ?????? ???? ???? ??? ????? ??? ?? ??? ???? ??? ????? membayangkan kepada kita bahawa pembentukan janin terhasil daripada persenyawaan antara air mani lelaki dengan air mani perempuan yang dikeluarkan ketika berlakunya hubungan jenis. Pendapat ini bukan sahaja tersasar, malah membayangkan Imam Nawawiy terkeliru antara air mani perempuan dengan ovum, selain boleh mendatangkan fitnah ke atas junjungan besar Nabi Muhammad s.a.w..

In medical systems for patient’s authentication, keeping biometric data secure is a general problem. Many studies have presented various ways of protecting biometric data especially finger vein biometric data. Thus, It is needs to find better ways of securing this data by applying the three principles of information security aforementioned, and creating a robust verification system with high levels of reliability, privacy and security. Moreover, it is very difficult to replace biometric information and any leakage of biometrics information leads to earnest risks for example replay attacks using the robbed biometric data. In this paper presented criticism and analysis to all attempts as revealed in the literature review and discussion the proposes a novel verification secure framework based confidentiality, integrity and availability (CIA) standard in triplex blockchain-particle swarm optimization (PSO)-advanced encryption standard (AES) techniques for medical systems patient’s auth.....

This paper presents comprehensive insights into mobile patient monitoring systems (MPMSs) from evaluation and benchmarking aspects on the basis of two critical directions. The current evaluation criteria of MPMSs based on the architectural components of MPMSs and possible solutions are discussed. This review highlights four serious issues, namely, multiple evaluation criteria, criterion importance, unmeasurable criteria and data variation, in MPMS benchmarking. Multicriteria decision-making (MCDM) analysis techniques are proposed as effective solutions to solve these issues from a methodological aspect. This methodological aspect involves a framework for benchmarking MPMSs on the basis of MCDM to rank available MPMSs and select a suitable one. The benchmarking framework is discussed in four steps. Firstly, pre-processing and identification procedures are presented. Secondly, the procedure of weight calculation based on the best–worst method (BWM) is described. Thirdly, the developmen.....

The main objective of this study is to propose a novel verification secure framework for patient authentication between an access point (patient enrolment device) and a node database. For this purpose, two stages are used. Firstly, we propose a new hybrid biometric pattern model based on a merge algorithm to combine radio frequency identification and finger vein (FV) biometric features to increase the randomisation and security levels in pattern structure. Secondly, we developed a combination of encryption, blockchain and steganography techniques for the hybrid pattern model. When sending the pattern from an enrolment device (access point) to the node database, this process ensures that the FV biometric verification system remains secure during authentication by meeting the information security standard requirements of confidentiality, integrity and availability. Blockchain is used to achieve data integrity and availability. Particle swarm optimisation steganography and advanced encryp.....
