    In this paper, an improved distributed estimation scheme for static sensor networks is developed. The scheme is developed for environmental time-variant physical variables. The main contribution of this work is that the algorithm in [1]-[3] has been extended, and a filter has been designed with weights, such that the variance of the estimation errors is minimized, thereby improving the filter design considerably\ud and characterizing the performance limit of the filter, and thereby tracking a time-varying signal. Moreover, certain parameter optimization is alleviated with the application of a particular finite impulse response (FIR) filter. Simulation results are showing the effectiveness of the developed estimation algorithm

    A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF THE FINANCIAL POLICIES DURING THE PIOUS CALIPHATE AND THE UMAYYADS RULE

    Get PDF
    The study of financial policies during the prophetic era, pious caliphal period, and Umayyad rule provides insights into the economic foundations of early Islamic civilization. The prophetic age prioritized fair commerce, social welfare, and charity. The pious caliphal period saw the Rashidun Caliphs consolidate administrative systems and implement financial policies for social welfare and economic justice. The Umayyad rule introduced complex financial systems and policies, influenced by pre-Islamic traditions and evolving Islamic economic principles. This analysis aims to clarify the continuity, changes, and adaptations in the economic frameworks that led to the development of Islamic culture and the lasting impact of these early financial policies on modern Islamic economic theory and practice

    The study aimed to assess effectiveness of electronic services in university libraries in Punjab, Pakistan. The study adopted the quantitative research method to achieve its objectives. The quantitative data were collected through the questionnaire from library users in eight public universities by employing the convenience sampling technique. The findings of the study reveal that the libraries did not offer adequate electronic services. The respondents did not seem satisfied with the electronic services as most of them did not give their opinions about the services. The findings of the study will be helpful for university authorities and the library administration to take necessary measures to design and offer electronic services keeping in view users’ needs and expectations

    Provision of pharmaceutical care services in community pharmacies is a new trend in pharmacy practice worldwide. Published literature from developed countries is available showing benefits of pharmaceutical care services provided in community pharmacies. However, relatively little published literature is available from developing countries in which unique market environments are encountered. This study was conducted to assess the acceptability of community pharmacy based pharmaceutical care services in Karachi. Pharmaceutical care services were developed and offered to pharmacy customers for a period of two months. Acceptability was evaluated with respect to enrollment of participants in the program, discontinuation, and complaints registered. The findings provide a better understanding of pharmaceutical care marketing strategies and are discussed within the context of the health care environment in Karachi

    Abstract Computer users are continuously facing ethical challenges as society adopts new and increasingly complex tools and technologies. These ethical challenges can be managed by Islamic code of life. In this paper, we have studied and tried to identify, how computer affects the ethical issues of the society. In this regards, we have traced some highly related issues to the ethics of computer usage, namely -misuse of time, honesty and integrity, privacy, security, intellectual property right, and computer crime. We have also tried to explain these issues in the light of Qur'an and Hadith. At the end of this paper, we have also suggested some measures that can help in promoting proper use of computer facilities by the Muslim masses without compromising the Islamic principles
