Abstrak Kemajuan Ilmu Pengetahuan dan Teknologi (IPTEK) hendaklah diikuti dengan Iman dan Takwa (IMTAK), sangat disayangkan, jika masih banyak masyarakat yang belum bisa membaca huruf hijaiyah yang merupakan dasar dari Al-Qur’an. Masyarakat sekarang telah disibukkan dengan berbagai aktipitas sehingga mereka sulit untuk belajar dengan Ustad atau Ustadza mengenai huruf hijaiyah. Untuk mengatasi m...

Based on a set of design principles, automated visual presentation systems promise to simplify an application programmer's design tasks by automatically constructing appropriate visual explanations for different information. However, these automated presentation systems must be equipped with a powerful inference approach to suit practical applications. Here, we present a planning-based, practic...

This paper describes the design and construction of a wearable active vision platform which is able to achieve substantial decoupling of the camera motion from the wearer’s motion. Design issues in sensor placement, robot kinematics and their relation to wearability are discussed and the prototype platform’s performance is evaluated in a number of important visual tasks. The paper also discusse...

This paper deals with the development of a Jacobean model for a 4-axes indigenously developed scara robot arm in the laboratory. This model is used to study the relation between the velocities and the forces in the robot while it is doing the pick and place operation. Keywords—SCARA, Jacobean, Tool Configuration Vector, Computer Control , Visual Basic , Interfacing , Drivers,

BACKGROUND Assessing the consequences of research is an increasingly important task in research and innovation policy. This paper takes a broader view of those consequences than the conventional economic approach, placing researchers and their activities in the centre of the assessment process and examining results for professional practice and general education as well as contributions to know...

The reliability of end-user developed spreadsheets is poor. Research studies find that 94% of ‘real-world’ spreadsheets contain errors. Although some research has been conducted in the area of spreadsheet testing, little is known about the behaviour or processes of individuals during the debugging task. In this paper, the authors investigate the performance and behaviour of expert and novice en...

We introduce VEXUS, an interactive visualization framework for exploring user data to fulfill tasks such as finding a set of experts, forming discussion groups and analyzing collective behaviors. User data is characterized by a combination of demographics like age and occupation, and actions such as rating a movie, writing a paper, following a medical treatment or buying groceries. The ubiquity...

Creating user defined functions (UDFs) is a powerful method to improve the quality of computer applications, in particular spreadsheets. However, the only direct way to use UDFs in spreadsheets is to switch from the functional and declarative style of spreadsheet formulas to the imperative VBA, which creates a high entry barrier even for proficient spreadsheet users. It has been proposed to ext...

This study is undertaken to compare some different flood routing models including wave models and numerical models in the real field. The results of the wave models included kinematic, diffusive and dynamic wave have already been compared using laboratory data. Lack of the data field and technical support has been causes of not be investigated in the real field. In this present paper, several n...

Repeatability is widely used as an indicator of the performance of an image feature detector but, although useful, it does not convey all the information that is required to describe performance. This paper explores the spatial distribution of interest points as an alternative indicator of performance, presenting a metric that is shown to concur with visual assessments. This metric is then exte...
