- PublicationAssessing The Potential For Freshwater Aquaculture Development In Timor-Leste Using Gis Modeling(2025-01)Teoh, Shwu JiauTimor-leste adopted the national aquaculture development strategy (2012–2030) to enhance food security and rural livelihoods by promoting freshwater aquaculture in areas with adequate resources and favourable socioeconomic conditions. Despite the widespread use of gis in aquaculture research, its application to freshwater pond aquaculture in timor-leste remains underutilized. This study addresses this gap by developing a gis-based suitability model tailored to timor-leste’s unique biophysical and socioeconomic conditions. Biophysical and socioeconomic factors were identified through a literature review and refined via stakeholder consultations and participatory gis methods to ensure contextual relevance. The analytical hierarchy process (ahp) was used to weight criteria systematically and multi-criteria evaluation with weighted linear combination (mce-wlc) integrated these factors to assess suitability. Fuzzy logic transformations accommodated uncertainties and represented continuous suitability transitions. The gis model, validated using actual pond location data with 84% accuracy, identified 1,312 km² of highly suitable areas across three municipalities: bobonaro (588.1 km²), viqueque (373.2 km²), and lautem (350.6 km²). High-suitability areas relative to total municipality areas were most concentrated in ermera (43.1%), bobonaro (42.7%), and aileu (39.6%).

- PublicationComparison Of Parameter Estimators Of Lognormal Distribution For Predicting Pm10 And Pm2.5 Concentrations(2024-11)Omar, Muhammad UthmanPm₁₀ and pm₂.₅ are among the dominant air pollutants in malaysia and have caused severe adverse effects on human health, especially on children, pregnant mothers, and senior citizens. To better understand the distribution of pm₁₀ and pm₂.₅, statistical modelling using the lognormal distribution was used because of its positively-skewed nature and is regarded as the most appropriate distribution for particulate matter in malaysia. The lognormal distribution has two parameters namely location and scale parameters. Parameter estimation is a crucial step in getting the best prediction since the value of location and scale parameters can affect the error and accuracy of the prediction. In this study, four different estimators namely the method of moments (mom), maximum likelihood estimator (mle), probability weighted moments (pwm), and uniformly minimum variance unbiased estimator (umvue) were used to estimate the location and scale parameters. Hourly data of pm₁₀ and pm₂.₅ concentrations from 2017 to 2020 on four different classifications of monitoring stations namely jerantut as background, sungai petani as suburban, alor setar as urban, and perai as industrial were used.
- PublicationDensity Functional Theory Investigation Of Electronic Structure And Muonium Hyperfine Interaction Of 12mer Single Strand Guanine Oligomer(2019-07)Zaharim, Wan NurfadhilahThe aims of this study are to determine the stable muon sites in 12mer single strand guanine (12mer ssG) oligomer, and to determine the associated muonium (Mu) hyperfine coupling constants. The Density Functional Theory (DFT) quantum mechanical method was employed to achived the goals of the study. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and UV-visible (UV-Vis) measurements were made to examine the physical structure and the HOMO-LUMO gap of the studied system. Computational investigation was first performed on isolated guanine (isolated G), guanine nucleobase (G nucleobase), and guanine nucleotide (G nucleotide). The C8 Mu trapping site was found to be the most energetically stable in all three molecules. The calculated Fermi contact coupling constants (FCCC) are 337.4 MHz, 334.3 MHz, and 310.6 MHz.
- PublicationDensity Functional Theory Study Of Electronic Structure And Muon Hyperfine Interaction In Guanine-Cytosine Double Strand Dna Molecule(2023-12)Jamaludin, AmmainaDeoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is a double helical molecule that serves as a medium for an efficient electron transport process that are closely related to DNA damage and development of DNA-based devices. The complexity of understanding the electron transport within DNA molecule has intrigued researchers to perform Muon Spin Resonance (μSR) eksperiment which can provide information regarding the topology of electron transport, electron mobility, and muon hyperfine coupling constant (HFCC). However, all the information is very difficult to be interpreted because the electronic structure and muon HFCC is still unclear due to the unknown position of muonium trapping sites. Therefore, Density Functional Theory (DFT) method at B3LYP/6-31G level was employed to study the electronic structure, muonium trapping sites and muon HFCC. The aims of this study are to determine the electronic structure of pure and methylated 1, 2, and 3 base pair guanine-cytosine double strand DNA, and to predict the external applied magnetic fields in Avoided Level Crossing Muon Spin Resonance (ALC-μSR) measurements to observe any resonance dips in the spectrums. It was found that the addition of a methyl group at the C5 atom of the cytosine base does not affect the overall sizes of the studied DNA molecules.
- PublicationDiversification And Firm Value: Analysing The Role Of Managerial Ability, Corporate Governance And Ceo Characteristics(2023-02)Lee, Chyn HwaDiversification is a hugely popular growth strategy among Malaysian firms. However, in light of the diversification discount and subsequent refocusing efforts of Western firms in recent decades, it is essential to re-examine whether diversification creates value for firms critically. Addressing the diversification premium/discount conundrum, this study explores whether managerial ability influences the relationship between diversification and firm value. In addition, this study examines CEO personal attributes that are compatible with diversified firms, an aim motivated by the upper echelon theory. Furthermore, agency theory demonstrates that managers have the tendency to be involved in agency issues. Thus, this study investigates whether the moderating effect of managerial ability on the relationship between diversification and firm value will be further enhanced when firms have good corporate governance. The sample data includes all KLSE-listed firms across nine sectors: consumer products, construction, industrial products, technology, IPC, hotel, plantation, properties, as well as trading and services. Nine years (2009 to 2017) of firm annual data were collected from the Datastream/Worldscope database. Information on CEO attributes (age and education) and corporate governance (ratio of independent director and duality) was manually collected from annual reports.
- PublicationEvaluating Operational Efficiency Of Urban Water Sector In China Based On Network Dea Methods(2025-04)Yin, ChangjunRapid urbanization and socioeconomic development have intensified water scarcity and wastewater pollution, posing significant challenges for urban water sectors (uws), especially in less-developed countries. In china, the uws, characterized by natural monopoly and initial marketization, faces inefficiencies due to fast urban expansion, water pollution, low water tariffs, fiscal subsidies, and aging infrastructure. Until now, extensive literature has been shed light on water utilities from other countries and industrial water use in china. No similar research has systematically investigated the holistic operation for the uws. This study systematically evaluates the technical efficiency of china’s uws using dynamic network dea models across three dimensions: firm-level (246 urban water supply utilities, 2016–2018), industry-level (urban water supply industry in 159 cities, 2013– 2018), and holistic sector-level (uws in 56 major cities, 2013–2017). The uws operation is decomposed into four substages, namely water production, water distribution, wastewater treatment, and wastewater recycling, to enable detailed benchmarking.
- PublicationEvaluating Operational Performance, Energy And Co2 Efficiency And Cost Of Pollution Of Airlines Using Network Dea Approach(2025-03)Guo, YongliThe airline industry can only achieve sustainable development if it ensures economic development and controls environmental pollution. However, the airline industry faces a huge challenge to its sustainability because the demand for transportation is strong, but profitability is low and is accompanied by a sharp increase in undesirable outputs. How airlines can make more efficient use of input resources, maximise desirable outputs, reduce undesirable outputs, and operate efficiently is an urgent issue for research. This thesis addresses this research problem using data envelopment analysis (dea), which is widely used for efficiency evaluation due to its ability to handle multiple inputs and outputs without the need for a priori assumptions on the functional form. Considering the technological heterogeneity of different airlines in terms of their operational structure (whether they participate in dynamic strategic alliances or not), this thesis first constructs a union dynamic network data envelopment analysis (dndea) model under a metafrontier framework to evaluate the dynamic operational performance of 24 global airlines from 2017 to 2019. It is found that the dynamic overall meta-efficiency of the alliance group was significantly higher than that of the nonalliance group.
- PublicationEvaluating The Research Efficiency Of Higher Education Institutions In Central And Western China Based On The Dea Method(2025-03)Tian, YuzhenScience and technology (s&t) are the driving forces of social and economic development. As major hubs for s&t research, higher education institutions (heis) have received much attention from the chinese government. However, heis in the central and western regions have not developed as well as those in the eastern region, impeding the overall balanced development of heis. Therefore, the government proposed the “revitalization plan” to support central and western heis and to improve their research efficiency. However, few studies have focused on this issue. To fill this gap, this study first intends to explore whether the “revitalization plan” improved the research efficiency of heis that received support from the policy during the study period by using the extended generalized data envelopment analysis (dea) method. This model can address the improvement from the input and output simultaneously. In addition to the efficiency evaluation among “revitalization plan” heis, this study employs the multi-hierarchy meta-frontier dea method to further investigate the efficiency gap between “revitalization plan” heis and other key heis.
- PublicationExploring Students’ Motivation And Experience In Vlog Task-Based Language Teaching For Ielts Speaking Skills In A Chinese International School In Guangzhou(2025-02)Miaosheng, ZhanThis study investigates the motivation and experience of using vlog task-based language teaching (tblt) to enhance international english language testing system (ielts) speaking among chinese high school students. The research explores how the vlog tblt can improve students' ielts speaking based on dörnyei’s motivational theory and gibbs’ reflective cycle. A six-week vlog tblt program was implemented, during which students engaged in weekly tasks with themes of objects, animals, and sports vlogs, each lasting for two weeks. The first weeks involved a 60-minute class discussion where students introduced their vlogs, scaffolded through celebrity speaking on related topics, and, the subsequent week, produced the vlogs using video-editing applications and then shared them using media platforms.
- PublicationExploring The Use Of Multimodal Feedback To Enhance Esl Students’ Narrative Writing Skills In An Open Learning University(2025-03)Eak, Arathai DinThis qualitative case study explored the impact of multimodal feedback on esl students' narrative writing skills within a malaysian open learning context. The research aimed to assess the efficacy of multimodal feedback methods in improving writing abilities and to examine the role of the community of inquiry (coi) in online learning environments. The study utilised a thorough methodology for fourteen weeks, which involved reviewing records and conducting interviews to collect detailed data on student experiences and interactions. Findings revealed significant improvements in students' narrative writing abilities, particularly in content organisation, vocabulary, grammar, and mechanics. These enhancements were attributed to the interactive nature of the feedback, which fostered a supportive learning environment and encouraged critical discourse among students. The study highlighted the importance of social presence, as students reported feeling more connected and supported through their interactions, aligning with existing literature on the correlation between social presence and student satisfaction in online learning. A key contribution to this research was introducing a "humanistic learning presence" within the community of inquiry (coi) framework, emphasising the need for emotional and psychological support alongside academic learning.

- PublicationHigh-Speed Octree Data Structure For Three-Dimensional (3d) Geographical Information System (Gis) Spatial Analysis In Slope Stability Application(2025-05)Keling, NoraidahGeographic information systems (gis) can more realistically model real-world complexity through three-dimensional (3d) spatial analysis than traditional two-dimensional (2d) approaches, but this approach requires significant algorithmic and computational resources, particularly for critical tasks such as slope stability assessment. Most current gis platforms effectively manage 2d/2.5d data but they experience difficulties when dealing with true 3d data structures and often need data conversion processes to the raster. The octree stands as a basic structure for three-dimensional representation, but standard octree implementations demonstrate poor performance in neighbour searches through their slow tree traversal method. This research introduces the high-speed octree (hso) data structure, designed to overcome these limitations by integrating octree principles with modern computational techniques. The fundamental approach of hso stores three-dimensional spatial information directly within the data structure. The system uses an efficient 3-bit binary encoding system at every hierarchical level to determine node paths.
