Subud is one of hundreds mystical movements (aliran kebatinan) that increased significantly in post-war Indonesia. Along with other movements like Sumarah and Pangestu, Subud has attracted people from the West and is now spread in about eighty countries. Despite the fact that Subud leaders deny any relation to the Javanese mystical tradition, it is one of the tasks of this study to show that the g
It has become a necessity to use on-chip inductors in radio frequency integrated circuits. Particularly oscillators need inductors to archive high performance. In LC oscillators the quality factor of the inductor is critical to the phase noise performance, and since the self-resonance frequency of the inductor will limit the operating frequency and tuning range of the oscillator, careful optimizat
Social movements in Malaysia have been traditionally exclusive in nature. Social movements in Malaysia have been limited by ethnic, social, and lingual barriers that constrained their capacity mobilizing the mass to overcome state constraints. However, the resistance of the Damansara New Village community against the State’s closure of the community school, Damansara Primary School, demonstrated t
Popular Abstract in English Alcohols and aldehydes are used in the chemical industry largely as a starting material for the manufacture of a wide range of products. They are also used as such in various industrial applications. The flexibility is due mainly to the functionalities of the alcohols and aldehydes being hydroxylic and carbonylic, respectively. Much interest is directed nowadays at convNowadays, transition metal oxide catalysts are employed to a large extent in many chemical processes for the selective production of chemicals and intermediates. Although metal oxides are mostly known as oxidation catalysts, they can successfully catalyze a wide range of reactions, such as dehydration. Two different processes have been studied in the present work: the selective oxidation of methan
Optimal finite partial response signals based on 2 and 4 PAM have been found by Said and Anderson. The encoder is a simple discrete-time filter, whose combination of bandwidth and Euclidian distance is optimized. Here we extended the idea to the case where the modulated symbols are first encoded by a short convolutional encoder. This gives power gains of 1-3 dB while maintaining the same bandwidth
