This paper discusses the use of online storage for document sharing to support teaching and learning purposes. To date, online storage has become one of important tools for document storage and management. Online storage has reduced the dependency to the storage devices that are bound to size limit, cost and risk. A part of the storage capability,...
Information searching in web environment is habitually tedious and challenging task. Rapid growth of web information infrastructure has led to the rapid publication of information on web environment. Too many information publish on web cause information overload problem that preclude the success of information searching. Thus, reduce the search sat...
Artificial Neural Network is one of the computational algorithms that can be applied in developing a forecasting model for the change of reservoir water level stage. Forecasting of the change of reservoir water level stage is vital as the change of the reservoir water level can affect the reservoir operator's decision. The decision of water release...
Student's placement in industry for the industrial training is difficult due to the large number of students and organizations involved. Further the matching process is complex due to the various criteria set by the organization and students. This paper will discuss the results of a pattern extraction process using a clustering algorithm that is k-...
The utilisation of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) and networked information infrastructure in a wide range of businesses and activities has increased the need for fast and reliable information. The information is vital for innovation, competition, and decision making. To date information gathering is no longer absolute from the libr...
Knowledge management era give impact the world in many domains, including education sectors. Education sector moves to the online learning instead of traditional approach; face to face. Learning Management System (LMS) is one of the knowledge management tools that support knowledge sharing and communication among its participants. To date LMS has b...
Reservoir is one of the emergency environments that required fast an
accurate decision to reduce flood risk during heavy rainfall and contain water
during less rainfall. Typically, during heavy rainfall, the water level increase
very fast, thus decision of the water release is timely and crucial task. In this
paper, intelligent decision support mod...
Reservoir dam is one of the defense mechanism for both flood and drought disasters. During flood, the opening of the dam's spillway gate must be adequate to ensure that the reservoir capacity will not over its limits and the discharges will not cause overflow downstream. While, during drought the reservoir needs to impound water and release adequat...
Realising the difficulties in information sharing among the academicians, this paper introduces an alternative information sharing model supporting information management features. The model is designed in an attempt to facilitate information distribution and information sharing at minimum effort and cost. A centralised database approach is used in...

Information stored digitally in text documents are seldom arranged according to specific topics. The necessity to read whole documents is time-consuming and decreases the interest for searching information. Most existing topic identification methods depend on occurrence
of terms in the text. However, not all frequent occurrence terms are relevant. The term extraction phase in topic identification method has resulted in extracted terms that might have similar meaning which is known as synonymy problem. Filtering and rule generation algorithms are introduced in this study to identify topic in textual documents. The proposed filtering algorithm (PFA) will extract the most relevant terms from text and solve synonym roblem amongst the extracted terms. The rule generation algorithm (TopId) is proposed to identify topic for each verse based on the extracted terms. The PFA will process and filter each sentence based on nouns and predefined keywords to produce suitable terms for the topic. Rules are then generated from the extracted terms using the rule-based classifier. An experimental design was performed on 224 English translated Quran verses which are related to female issues. Topics identified by both TopId and Rough Set technique were compared and later verified by experts. PFA has successfully extracted more relevant terms compared to other filtering techniques. TopId has identified topics that are closer to the topics from experts with an accuracy of 70%. The proposed algorithms were able to extract relevant terms without losing important terms and identify topic in the verse.
