    A correspondence analysis and path analysis approach were conducted for a dental caries case study among 6-7 year-old children from (Bachok District) Kelantan. Data from382 children were collected and caries status was examined visually by two dental officers from School of Dental Sciences, Hospital Universiti Sains Malaysia (HUSM). All related and important information observed was recorded in a research form. Results showed that 63.1% of the children was in high caries category. The incidence of caries among these children was very high and required attention from the government. The factors associated with caries status were analyzed using graphical mapping approach and path model analysis. This statistical technique facilitated the visualization through mapping procedure and path modeling analysis of the studied variables. All data were processed and analyzed using SAS (for Canonical Correspondence Analysis) and SPSS (Logistic Regression) software.

    Designing a Tool for Software Maintenance
    (International Scholarly and Scientific Research & Innovation, 2015) Amir Ngah; Masita Abdul Jalil; Zailani Abdullah
    The aim of software maintenance is to maintain the software system in accordance with advancement in software and hardware technology. One of the early works on software maintenance is to extract information at higher level of abstraction. In this paper, we present the process of how to design an information extraction tool for software maintenance. The tool can extract the basic information from old programs such as about variables, based classes, derived classes, objects of classes, and functions.

    (Springer International Publishing Switzerland, 2016) Omer Adam; Zailani Abdullah; Amir Ngah; Kasypi Mokhtar; Wan Muhamad Amir Wan Ahmad; Tutut Herawan; Noraziah Ahmad; Mustafa Mat Deris; Abdul Razak Hamdan; Jemal H. Abawajy
    In this paper we propose Incremental Sequential PAttern Discovery using Equivalence classes (IncSPADE) algorithm to mine the dynamic database without the requirement of re-scanning the database again. In order to evaluate this algorithm, we conducted the experiments against three different artificial datasets. The result shows that IncSPADE outperformed the benchmarked algorithm called SPADE up to 20%.

    Transforming the organization and governance Of University
    (Journal of Business and Social Development, 2016-03) Fauziah Abu Hasan; Ibrahim Komoo; Mohd Nazli Mohd Nor; Zailani Abdullah
    The knowledge revolution of the late 20th and early 21st centuries has demanded that universities change and transform themselves to be relevant and cope with the changing scenarios. Many issues concerning the higher education sector including funds for research, curriculum relevance, marketability of students and rankings have dominated discussions amongst the various stakeholders. Universiti Malaysia Terengganu (UMT), being a young public university in Malaysia has had its fair share of challenges. In order to energize and streamline the governance of the university hence making it more competitive and effective, UMT had embarked on a massive restructuring exercise in 2012. Amongst the unique characteristics of the new structure are the establishment of a center for talent development and management for academics; consolidating the management of the departments of undergraduate and postgraduate; transforming faculties into more discipline-based and sector focused schools; and forming a new center for transformation and risk management. Early feedback showed that the new structure is well received, had reduced bureaucracies and resulted in better management of financial and human resources.
