WeeliciousCuisine quick response (QR)

This paper attempts to create a WeeliciousCuisine quick respond (QR) code content which including some guideline video to guide the users on how to use this product and also providing some recipe to teach them how to used and how to made a complete dishes.The target of audience ages are in seventeen to twenty five years old.Besides that, it also aim for the restaurants, shops and bars to provide them a better understanding of how the products have been use as to improve the services of the tourism industry as this application provides the useful information related to the products or ingredients that required by the foreigners, so the users can get the right ingredients in overseas for example, Malaysia.Research conducted by using the descriptive statistics and result shown more than 58% respondents are still not familiar with Quick respond code but more than a half respondents are interested to know more about Quick respond code and requested to improve their content on food and beverage.In conclusion, WeeliciousCuisine Quick Response (QR) is a system that helps user to have a quick look and learn how to cook in short time.The function of this system is to prevent users for choosing the wrong ingredients and also help them to save time and cost in the supermarket

Determinants of successful export ventures in Singapore

The purpose of this study is to gain a deeper understanding of the success of export ventures in Singapore. The main objective of this study is to identify the factors contributing to successful export performance in the first five years of the export venture. Another objective is to lay a theoretical foundation on which further inquiries can be based.BUSINES

Personal and social norms in responsible computer acquisition

This study aimed to investigate the mediating roles of social and personal norms in the relationships between transcendent values (i.e. altruistic and biospheric) and responsible computer acquisition behaviour (RCAB). Previous studies suggested the role of norms in explaining the value–behaviour relationship. However, they did not provide sufficient evidence of the mediating roles of both personal and social norms. Design/methodology/approach A self-administered questionnaire was employed to gather data from 571 consumers in Malaysia. The data were analysed using the structural equation modelling method. Findings It was found that personal and social norms partially mediate the relationship between altruistic values and RCAB. Social norms also partially mediate the relationship between altruistic values and personal norms. However, there was no significant relationship between biospheric values and RCAB; thus, the norms have no mediation roles

Effects of ethical climate and ethical pressure on auditors' turnover intentions and other behavioural outcomes.

This study examines the potential effects of ethical climate and ethical pressure on auditors’ intentions to leave the firm and the profession, as well as on other behavioural outcomes such as organizational commitment, professional commitment and job satisfaction for a sample of auditors from the Big 4 accounting firms in Singapore

A NEW STATE-OF-CHARGE ESTIMATION METHOD FOR VALVE REGULATED LEAD ACID BATTERIES

In this paper, a new improved coulomb counting method is proposed to estimate the State-of-Charge (SOC) of a 12V valve regulated lead acid (VRLA) battery. The conventional coulomb counting method estimates the SOC with a high error rate for high discharge current. Experimental results show the error in the conventional SOC estimation is as high as 16% for higher discharge currents. This error in the SOC estimation is due to the underestimation of the battery capacity. To compensate this error, a new charging coefficient is proposed. The inclusion of this charging coefficient could accurately estimate the SOC of the battery during the charging process

Antioxidant and Total Phenolic Content of Breadfruit (Artocarpus altilis) Leaves

This work aims to determine antioxidant, total phenolic content and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis of breadfruit leaves which are essential in management of diabetes. The methanolic extracts of breadfruit leaves was used to analyze for total phenolic content and antioxidant. Total phenolic content of the extracts was measured using the Folin–Ciocalteu assay while the antioxidant activity of plant extracts was measured by the 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picryhyradrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging assay. FTIR analysis was used to determine the chemical components in the leaves. Total phenolic content in fresh breadfruit leaves (144.16 mg/g ± 17.98) was comparable to those of green tea. The results showed the breadfruit leaves extracts exhibited potent antioxidant activity. The presence of OH group also suggests antioxidant capacity of breadfruit leaves to deactivate free radicals as glucose itself could react with hydrogen peroxide in the presence of iron and copper ions to form hydroxyl radical
