Modernization of Education Contents of Muhammadiyah, Nahdlatul Ulama, and Al Jam’iyatul Washliyah 1900-1942 in North Sumatera
This study aims to reveal how the process of
modernization of education content on the
organization Muhammadiyah, Nahdlatul Ulama and
Al Jam'iyatul Washliyah years 1900-1942. The issues
raised are: (1) how the historical background in
modernizing education content of the three
organizations; (2), how the modernization process of
these organizations to arrange their education
content; (3), how the these organizations
dissemination of education content on the subjects.
This is solved by historical method comprising the
steps of: heuristics; second, verification;
interpretation; historiography, and social history.
The findings research informs: First, the three
organizations have the same background in
determining the education content, those are, first;
the spirit leaders spreading Islam in accupation
situation by orienting on Islamic education of the
occupation, second; the intellectual contact internally
an externally to conceive and build on the progress of
Islamic education. Third; The strong desire to equate
Islamic education progress with the western progress
(colonization), fourth; The desire to realize the
equality social among communities in receiving
education and the world of work. The second finding
is; the same formulate of education content material
Islamic teaching that originated from AD and ART,
but have different ways depending on modern
education content. Muhammadiyah with
revolutionary and Nahdlatul Ulama with
evolutionary, and Al Jam'iyatul Washliyah with
situasionery. the third finding is; the similarities of
education content modernization process using a
common and religious material. However they have
differences on the distribution of the content in the
subjects, Muhammadiyah is innovative and
NahdlatulUlama is creative and Al Jam’iyatul
Washliyah is very selective
TopCom: Index for Shortest Distance Query in Directed Graph
Finding shortest distance between two vertices in a graph is an important
problem due to its numerous applications in diverse domains, including
geo-spatial databases, social network analysis, and information retrieval.
Classical algorithms (such as, Dijkstra) solve this problem in polynomial time,
but these algorithms cannot provide real-time response for a large number of
bursty queries on a large graph. So, indexing based solutions that pre-process
the graph for efficiently answering (exactly or approximately) a large number
of distance queries in real-time is becoming increasingly popular. Existing
solutions have varying performance in terms of index size, index building time,
query time, and accuracy. In this work, we propose T OP C OM , a novel
indexing-based solution for exactly answering distance queries. Our experiments
with two of the existing state-of-the-art methods (IS-Label and TreeMap) show
the superiority of T OP C OM over these two methods considering scalability and
query time. Besides, indexing of T OP C OM exploits the DAG (directed acyclic
graph) structure in the graph, which makes it significantly faster than the
existing methods if the SCCs (strongly connected component) of the input graph
are relatively small
FS^3: A Sampling based method for top-k Frequent Subgraph Mining
Mining labeled subgraph is a popular research task in data mining because of
its potential application in many different scientific domains. All the
existing methods for this task explicitly or implicitly solve the subgraph
isomorphism task which is computationally expensive, so they suffer from the
lack of scalability problem when the graphs in the input database are large. In
this work, we propose FS^3, which is a sampling based method. It mines a small
collection of subgraphs that are most frequent in the probabilistic sense. FS^3
performs a Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) sampling over the space of a
fixed-size subgraphs such that the potentially frequent subgraphs are sampled
more often. Besides, FS^3 is equipped with an innovative queue manager. It
stores the sampled subgraph in a finite queue over the course of mining in such
a manner that the top-k positions in the queue contain the most frequent
subgraphs. Our experiments on database of large graphs show that FS^3 is
efficient, and it obtains subgraphs that are the most frequent amongst the
subgraphs of a given size
The Accountant's Ethical Code of Conduct and Moral Reasoning from an Islamic Environment: Case in Yemen
An ethical code of conduct is developed to guide behaviors of members in or of organizations. Accountants, in this context, are not an exception. The availability of such ethical code of conduct is extremely important for both accountants and users of accounting information. However, currently in Yemen, there is no ethical code of conduct for Yemeni professional accountants. It is also equally important to know how Yemeni professional accountants perceive prescriptively and deliberatively on issues related to the ethical code of conduct. Hence, two phases of study were carried out to tap the issues. The first phase was sought to address the question of what constitutes the ethical code of conduct among Yemeni professional accountants. Data were collected from 386 users of accounting information in Yemen. The study employed interdependency analysis to reveal and confirm the domain of the accountants' ethical code of conduct. Results show that the ethical code of conduct consists of several ethical constructs. The second phase of the study was to know to what extent Yemeni professional accountants behave ethically at work. This is important because Islam emphasizes consistency between thought and action. Data were collected from 138 professional accountants in four main cities of Yemen i.e. Sana'a, Hadhramout, Taiz, and Aden. Results showed that Yemeni professional accountants exhibit higher level of moral reasoning beyond the conventional level. The findings of this study contribute to the body of knowledge by providing an Islamic perspective to the ethical issues which has similarities and differences vis-a-vis the Western perspective
The Accountants Ethics in Yemen
Ethics is important in any job, but it is extremely important in the accounting job. Over the years, researchers have performed numerous studies in the field of ethics in relation to the accounting profession. However, specifically in Yemen, there has been no ethical
code of conduct for Yemeni accountants. This study presents the domain of Yemeni accountants' ethics. Data collected by using the questionnaire from 74 Yemeni
accountants in trade companies in Sana'a city. And, this study use Interdependency Analysis to reveal the Domain of Ethical Code of Conduct for Yemeni Accountants. Analysis of literature suggested 18 accountants' ethics. The research findings found the most important components of Yemeni accountant's ethics are four components, i.e, two
for Deliberative Ethics and two for Prescriptive Ethics. The components of Deliberative Ethics are: Deliberative on Protection of Clients, and Deliberative On Conflict Of Interest. In addition, the components of Prescriptive Ethics are: Prescriptive on Independency, and Prescriptive on Duty
