Information systems failure: A business-led knowledge requirements framework for modelling business requirements
This thesis was submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and awarded by Brunel University.Our work will be mainly concerned with improving the crucial first stage (the requirements stage) of any system development methodology in order to improve requirements. A framework has been developed, called "knowledge requirements framework (KRF)" to help customers and system developers bridge the knowledge and understanding gaps at the initial
requirements stage of the Information Technology System (ITS) development process.
Unclear business requirements, mismatch of knowledge and understanding are among the
major factors that contributes to some ITS failures worldwide. The aim is to capture
functional requirements at the initial stage of the system development process and to
integrate systems and people use them in the development process. Multi-surveys are conducted, capture and highlight the criteria of initial requirements exactness and executability. Knowledge and understanding gaps, which occur in the
development process, are described. These gaps constitute the problem at the invisible
architecture in the initial requirements stage, as they expose mismatch of both knowledge and understanding problems (Requirements/Specifications). A notation to describe this framework is elaborated, novel techniques and tools for the construction and application of customer requirements in systems development are developed and used in KRF to facilitate bridging these gaps. The resulting prototype KRF is developed and used against some example problems in retail organisations, and so shown to be sufficient in principle of handling all the negotiation problems at the initial requirements stage, singly and in combination. Also, it is shown how KRF sub-process can be combined and used to elicit information and knowledge mining between both the customer and the system developer using human communication and interaction capture as an example. Systems these days are living systems, changeable, in business and the human factor in developing them cannot be excluded. It is further shown how these techniques and tools can be augmented with established methodologies rather than inventing new ones and to enable management to react as quickly as possible to global changing market conditions. This proposed framework is also evaluated and tested against the original criteria of initial requirements, exactness and executability
The Role of Human Resource Information System on staff retention management
It is important to retain Quality employees in the organization, and there is limited empirical research regarding the application of Quality Human Resource Information Systems in staff retention management. This paper covers the application of quality HRIS (e.g. Recruitment Information, and Personnel Information) in staff retention management in the hospitality industry by adoption of institutional theory and job characteristics theory. The focus of this research is on the activities of the organization at the early stage of recruitment and selection levels. Adoption of institutional theory provides a perspective to internal and external staff turnover factors (e.g. remuneration, training quality, and lack of growth opportunities) prior to recruiting an employee to the organization. This research will be conducted at a well-known company in the hospitality industry

AKURASI ARAH KIBLAT MASJID JAMI’ DI KECAMATAN BEBER PERSPEKTIF ILMU FALAK DAN ULAMA BEBER
Rifki Al Wafi. NIM: 1908201117. “AKURASI ARAH KIBLAT MASJID JAMI’
DI KECAMATAN BEBER PERSPEKTIF ILMU FALAK DAN ULAMA
BEBER, 2023.
Masjid mempunyai peranan penting sebagai pusat sarana ibadah umat
muslim. Hasil pengamatan dan observasi penulis, bahwa masjid yang ada di
Kecamatan Beber khususnya, belum dihitung kembali akurasi arah kiblatnya sejak
dibangun masjid tersebut. Seperti dalam salah satu masjid yang dijadikan sampel
pra-penelitian, yakni Masjid Al-Ma’mur Desa Ciawigajah, bahwa dari arah kiblat
yang semestinya berada di angka 294° 55’, justru arah kiblat masjid saat ini berada
pada angkat yang berbeda yakni 285°24’. Tentunya, hal tersebut menjadikan
adanya selisih arah kiblat sebesar 9° 31’ 0”. Di mana, semestinya arah kiblat
masjid saat ini harus digeser ke kanan menuju arah Barat Laut. Berdasarkan hal
tersebut, maka mengetahui akurasi arah kiblat masjid-masjid jami’ di Kecamatan
Beber semakin perlu ditinjau tingkat ketepatannya dalam menghadap kiblat.
Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menjawab pertanyaan-pertanyaan yang
menjadi perumusan masalah, “Bagaimana akurasi arah kiblat masjid-masjid
jami’ yang berada di Kecamatan Beber?” dan “Bagaimana respon ulama dan
perspektif ilmu falak terhadap akurasi arah kiblat msjid-masjid jami’ yang berada
di Kecamatan Beber. Penelitian ini menggunakan penelitian kualitatif, adapun
jenis penelitiannya yaitu penelitian lapangan (research field). Dalam penelitian ini
menggunakan (MQF) Mizwala Qibla Finder sebagai alat untuk menguji tingkat
akurasi arah kiblat. Sumber data primer diperoleh dari observasi, wawancara,
dokumentasi, dan data sekunder seperti yang diperoleh dari buku-buku dan tulisan�tulisan yang berhubungan dengan tema. Data yang terkumpul kselanjutnya di
analisis dengan analisis deskriptif verifikatif.
Dari sepuluh masjid yang dijadikan objek penelitian, terdapat tiga masjid
yang mengalami kemelencengan arah kiblat. Masjid-masjid tersebut ialah Masjid
Al-Ma’mur Ciawigajah, Masjid Baiturrosyidin Patapan, dan Masjid Nurul Mubin
Sindanghayu. Kemudian untuk masjid yang akurat menghadap kiblat yakni ada
masjid Baiturrohmah Kondangsari, Masjid Darussalam Cipinang, Masjid Al�Falah Sindangkasih, Masjid Nurul Bayan Wanayasa, Masjid Quwwatul Islam
Cikancas, Masjid Al-Rohmah Halimpu, dan Masjid Nurul Huda Beber.KH. Ahmad,
mengungkapkan bahwa permasalah arah kiblat memang harus diseriusi
keberadaannya. Sebab kemelencengan yang terjadi pada satu masjid tentu akan
berpengaruh terhadap menghadapnya seseorang dalam salat. Lalu, KH. Muhtadi
mengungkapkan bahwa agar tidak terlalu mempermasalahkan hal-hal teknis
seperti arah kiblat. Menurutnya, hal itu masuk dalam kategori furu’ bukan dalam
hal ushul. Ia pun mengungkapkan mengenai arah kiblat masjid yang diteliti, itu
dikembalikan lagi kepada para pengurus masjid, dan soal hukum salat yang
menghadap tidak tepat searah 294° semuanya tetap sah.
Kata Kunci : Arah Kiblat, Akurasi, Masjdi Jami’ Kecamatan Beber
Improving Behavior of Castellated Beam by Adding Spacer Plat and Steel Rings
العتبات الفولاذية القلعوية هي تلك الاعضاء الانشائية التي تصنع من مقاطع فولاذي قياسية بعد قطع جذع المقطع بشكل متعرج ثم تزحيف الجزئيين وربطهما بواسطة اللحام لتشكيل عتبة قلعوية ذات فتحات سداسية مما يؤدي لزيادة عمق مقطع العتبة الفولاذية. بصورة عامة ان الفتحات المتكونة في جذع العتبة القلعوية تكون بشكل سداسي مع ذلك يمكن الحصول على فتحة ثمانية الشكل باضافة صفيحة من الفولاذ بين الجزئين (Spacer Plate) لزيادة عمق العتبة. اصبح استخدام العتبات القلعوية في انشاء الابنية منتشر بشكل واسع بسبب العديد من الايجابيات مثل سهولة مد الخدمات و المقاومة العالية والكلفة المنخفضة بالمقارنة بالمقطع الام. هذه الدراسة تركز على تحسين سلوك العتبات القلعوية ذات الفتحات السداسية الشكل و الفتحات ثمانية الشكل والمجهزة صفيحة فولاذية لزيادة العمق. التحمل الاقصى للعتبة الام تزداد مع زيادة عمق العتبة. لكن الزيادة بعمق العتبة القلعوية يؤدي لحدوث فشل الانبعاج في الجذع مع انواع اخرى من الفشل عند تسليط الاحمال الخارجية. اثبتت نتائج التحليل ان استخدام حلقة فولاذية كتقوية حول الفتحة الثمانية تساهم بتقوية جذع العتبة و تقليل هكذى انوع من الفشل. بالاضافة لذلك ان استخدام الحلقة الفولاذ يقلل من تركز الاجهادات حول حافة الفتحات ويحسن من سلوك هذه العتبات من خلال زيادة التحمل الاقصى وتقليل انفعال التشوه. تم استخدام طريقة العناصر المحددة لتحليل العتبات القلعوية ذات الفتحات السداسية والثمانية الشكل التي تم صناعتها من مقطع فولاذي نوع (IPN140). من خلال دراسة النتائج العددية التي حصلنا عليه بواسطة استخدام برنامج ANSYS 14 , لوحظ ان التحمل الاقصى للعتبات القلعوية يمكن تحسينها باضافة صفائح فولاذية و حلقة فولاذية كتقوية حول الفتحات. اذ لوحظ ان التحمل الاقصى للعتبات القلعوية ذات الفتحات ثمانية الشكل يمكن ان تزداد لحد (53%) اكثر من التحمل الاقصى للعتبة الام (IPN140) مع اضافة فولاذ( صفائح مع حلقة فولاذية) بنسبة (13%) من الوزن الكلي للعتبة الام.Castellated steel beams are those members which are made from hot rolled steel I-section firstly by cutting the web in zigzag pattern and rejoining the two halves by welding together to form a hexagonal castellated beam such that the depth of section will be increased. Generally, the openings made in the web are with hexagonal shape; however, octagonal shape of web openings is typically obtained by providing spacer plate which is utilized to increase the depth of beam. Nowadays, using castellated beams in building construction becomes very popular because of their useful functions such as ease of service provision, strength and low cost. This study focuses on improving the behavior of hexagonal and octagonal castellated beam with spacer plate. The ultimate strength of the original (parent) I- section beam increases due to the increasing its depth. The increment of castellated beam depth; however, leads to post buckling in its web and to many other modes of failure when these beams are subjected for loading. Hexagonal and octagonal castellated beams which are fabricated using parent I-section (IPN140) are analyzed using finite element model (FEM).The analysis results revealed that using ring stiffeners around edge of holes contributes effectively in strengthening the web. It was found that using ring steel stiffeners can reduce the stress concentration around the edge of holes and improve the behavior of these beams by increasing the ultimate strength and minimizing the deflection. From the numerical (FEM) results obtained by using ANSYS14, it is concluded that ultimate strength of castellated beam can be improved by providing spacer plate and ring stiffeners around the web hole. Also, the results showed that ultimate strength of octagonal castellated steel beam can be increased up to (53%) more than the parent beam (IPN140) with providing only (13.0%) weight of steel (spacer plate plus ring steel stiffeners)

Historical Land use/Land cover classification and its change detection mapping using Different Remotely Sensed Data from LANDSAT (MSS, TM and ETM+) and Terra (ASTER) sensors: a case study of the Euphrates River Basin in Syria with focus on agricultural irrigation projects
This thesis deals spatially and regionally with the natural boundaries of the Euphrates River Basin (ERB) in Syria. Scientifically, the research covers the application of remote sensing science (optical remote sensing: LANDSAT-MSS, TM, and ETM+; and TERRA: ASTER); and methodologically, in Land Use/Land Cover (LULC) classification and mapping, automatically and/or semi-automatically; in LULC-change detection; and finally in the mapping of historical irrigation and agricultural projects for the extraction of differing crop types and the estimation of their areas. With regard to time, the work is based on the years 1975, 1987, 2005 and 2007. Initially, preprocessing of the satellite data (geometric- and radiometric- processing, image enhancement, best bands composite selection, transformation, mosaicing and finally subsetting) was carried out. Then, the Land Use/Land Cover Classification System (LCCS) of the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) was chosen. The following steps were followed in LULC- classification and change detection mapping: visual interpretation in addition to digital image processing techniques; pixel-based classification methods; unsupervised classification: ISODATA-method; and supervised classification and multistage supervised approaches using the algorithms: Maximum Likelihood Classifier (MLC), Neural Network classifier (NN) and Support Vector Machines (SVM). These were trialed on a test area to determine the optimized classification approach/algorithm for application on the whole study area (ERB) based on the available imagery. Pre- and post- classification change detection methods (comparison approaches) were used to detect changes in land use/land cover-classes (for the years 1975, 1987 and 2007) in the study area. The remote sensing methods show a high potential in mapping historical and present land use/land cover classes and its changes over time. Significant results are also possible for agricultural crop classification in relatively large regional areas (the ERB in Syria is almost 50,335 km²). Change trends in the study area and period was characterized by land-intensive agricultural expansion. The rapid, more labor- and capital- intensive growth in the agricultural sector was enabled by the introduction of fertilizer, improved access to rural roads and markets, and the expansion of the government irrigation projects. Irrigated areas increased 148 % in the past 32 years from 249,681 ha in 1975 to 596,612 ha in 2007
