Property manager's knowledge and skills : a brief literature review towards achieving excellence / Mohd Zaki Arif and Rohaya Ghani

The development in landed properties haS increased the demand for Property Managers. The introduction of newer and modern building technology has changed the roles and functions of property managers. In order to develop and ensure good property management practices, property management in different countries is subjected to local rules and regulations. In Malaysia, property managers are required to register with The Board of Valuers, Appraisers and Estate Agents. However, complaints take place in the mass media, mainly on major areas such as technical knowledge, skills, attitude and abilities of the property managers. This triggers the need to identify and develop competency framework for property managers which is persistently referred as Knowledge, Skills, Abilities and Others (KSAOs). This paper outlines the critical knowledge, skills, abilities and other areas which are required by the property managers based on current literature. Views from related professions involving property management are also taken into consideration in identifying the KSAOs for the property managers. We are optimistic this paper will add to new knowledge on the topic of competency and property management. It is hopeful that property managers will boast a concerted effort in developing good property management practices by means of a competency-based management programme

Defining skills and knowledge for successful property Managers

The developments in landed properties have increased the demand for Property Managers. With the introduction of newer and modern building technology, has changed the roles and functions of property managers. Practicing property management in difference countries are subjected to the local rules and regulations. These are to ensure only proficient property managers are allow to practice property management. In Malaysia property managers are required to register with The Malaysia Board of Valuer and Estate Agent. However protest frequently emerges in the mass media, focusing on prominence area such as technical knowledge, skills, attitude and abilities of the property managers. To this degree incite the needs to define the skills and knowledge required by property managers to excel in property management. We hope to uncover these competencies and induce the property management practitioner to take up this substance to enhance their profession

The study of polymer material characterisation using M-Z-N statistical analysis method

This paper proposes an implementation of alternative statistical signal analysis method in characterising material properties of polymer using impulse excitation technique (IET) in accordance with ASTM E1876 standard. Five types of cylindrical shape polymer specimens are used, namely acrylics (AC), poly vinyl chloride (PVC), polyethylene (PE), cast nylon (MC), and polyoxymethylene (POM). Experimental procedure is done based on non-destructive testing (NDT) concept by tapping the specimens using an impact hammer within a specific range of impact force, while accelerometer sensor Endevco 751-100 is used to detect the vibration produced. The detected vibration and the impact force signal which is triggered by impact hammer are captured using NI 9234 data acquisition device and computer. The signal is interpreted and statistically analysed using Mesokurtosis Zonal Non-parametric (M-Z-N) analysis method. As a result, mathematical model equations for determining two material properties which are tensile strength and thermal conductivity have been successfully developed. They are derived through correlation between the signal data and M-Z-N coefficient. Verification of the equation is done and the calculated errors to be in the range of 5.55% to 9.74%. Hence, this proves that the correlation can be used as a standard for determining these material properties through M-Z-N method, which is efficient and low cost

Machine Learning For HTTP Botnet Detection Using Classifier Algorithms

Recently,HTTP based Botnet threat has become a serious problem for computer security experts as bots can infect victim’s computer quick and stealthily.By using HTTP protocol,Bots are able to hide their communication flow within normal HTTP communications.In addition,since HTTP protocol is widely used by internet application,it is not easy to block this service as a precautionary approach. Thus,it is needed for expert finding ways to detect the HTTP Botnet in network traffic effectively.In this paper, we propose to implement machine learning classifiers,to detect HTTP Botnets.Network traffic dataset used in this research is extracted based on TCP packet feature.We also able to find the best machine learning classifier in our experiment.The proposed method is able to classify HTTP Botnet in network traffic using the best classifier in the experiment with an average accuracy of 92.93%

Development Of Polymer Mechanical Properties Characteristics Using I-KAZ 4D Analysis Method.

This study was undertaken to develop an alternative method based on signal analysis known as I-kaz 4D or I-kaz 4 channels.The aim was to characterize several mechanical properties including Poisson Ratio (PR), Vickers Hardness (VH),Yield Strength (YS),Tensile Strength (TS),Compression Strength (CS) and Fatigue Strength (FS).Specimens used are Polyoxymethylene (POM), Polyvinylchloride (PVC) and Blue Nylon MC (MC Blue).Round bar shape specimens were impacted by steel ball from different heights,20 cm to 40 cm.This test was conducted at semi-anechoic room and follow ASTM E1876 standard accordingly.4 accelerometer sensors were placed on the specimen surface to capture vibration signal produced by ball impact.Transient signals which generated from ball impact were analysed using Matlab software based on mathematical model I-kaz 4D.As a result,a correlation was found between I-kaz linear coefficient and material mechanical properties.However the errors are within acceptable range for all specimens used.It was found that average errors for Poisson Ratio = 0.69%,Vickers Hardness = 2.12%, Yield Strength = 3.20%,Tensile Strength = 2.43%, Compression Strength = 2.75% and Fatigue Strength =2.02%. It has potentiality to be used for further analysis of the respective materials

An Investigation On Light Structure Modal Parameter By Using Experimental Modal Analysis Method Via Piezofilm Sensor

This study is conducted to determine the modal parameters namely natural frequencies and mode shapes of aluminum 6061 (Al6061). The parameters are done by conducting a free dynamic vibration analysis. Modal analysis study was conducted by both simulation and experimental approaches. The simulation was conducted via ANSYS software while the experimental work was performed through impact hammer testing to determine the vibration parameter. Two sensors i.e. piezoelectric film and accelerometer were used. The result obtained were ya = 302.02x – 52.51 (accelerometer) and yp = 295.78x - 41.73 (piezofilm). ya (accelerometer) and yp (piezofilm) is linear equation of the data plotted according to the reading from mode shape versus natural frequency. The relation between natural frequency from accelerometer and piezofilm for the rectangular-shaped specimen was ya = 1.02yp – 9.90 and can be concluded that the regression ratio of 1.02 was approximately 1.0 which agreed with the status of piezoelectric film sensor that can be used as an alternative sensor for accelerometer. There was a good results agreement between simulation and experimental work outcome

Novel Technique Of Modal Analysis For Light Structure Via Piezofilm Sensor: A Comparison Study

This study is conducted to determine the modal parameters namely natural frequencies and mode shapes of aluminum 6061 (Al6061). A light and small structure made from Al6061 is chosen as the experimental specimen mainly because of its wide application in industries such as automotive parts or accessories and robotic, mainly in manufacturing of automobile frames. If a component vibrates with a frequency that is coherent with the component’s natural frequency, resonance frequency will occur and structural failure might emerge. Two sensors i.e. piezoelectric film and accelerometer were used. The result obtained were ya = 329.60x – 142.27 (accelerometer) and yp = 304.98x + 15.18 (piezofilm). The relation between natural frequency of accelerometer and piezofilm for the triangle-shape specimen was ya = 1.08yp – 158.67 and can be concluded that the regression ratio of 1.08 was approximately 1.0 which agreed with the status of piezoelectric film sensor that can be used as an alternative sensor for accelerometer. There was a good results agreement between simulation and experimental work outcome
