Taking care notebook’s battery

• • Knowledge, Public • 1 minute of reading

Typically, all notebook batteries are built to handle a certain number of usage cycles, around 500, and often more. Each cycle of use decreases the battery’s capacity, so the less you drain it, the longer it’ll last. If you leave your battery plugged in for long time it will cause heating issue. Letting a battery charge to 100 percent all the time does tend to wear the battery out more quickly, while letting it fall too lower in the other direction too often can also be bad news. The happy middle ground is, according to Battery University funder and Cadex Electronics

Agent-Based Modeling (ABM)

• • Knowledge, Teaching • • 2 minutes of reading

Conceptually, in ABM you give instructions to virtual agents that allow the agents to interact. Agents can be animals, tanks, parcels, delivery trucks, or any discrete object. From the resulting decisions and actions of the agents, patterns are created in space and time. Unlike many other modeling techniques that quantify and then re-create the patterns, agent-based models explore the causes of the patterns; the patterns are emergent properties from the individual decisions of the agents. Agent-based modeling, combined with spatial data, allows you to address a wide array of problems such as the following: Developing corridor connectivity networks for wildlife movement

Malaysia MIF Format Coordinate Conversion Utility

• • Knowledge, Personal, Project, Research • , , , , , , , , • 2 minutes of reading

This application serves as a powerful tool for the seamless conversion of MapInfo data in MIF format across various coordinate systems, including transformations such as WGS84 to RSO, WGS84 to State Cassini, RSO to State Cassini, and State Cassini to RSO. The conversions are performed with a high level of precision, meeting stringent accuracy standards. Initially developed using Microsoft Visual Basic Version 6 in the late 1999, this utility has undergone continuous refinement over time to enhance its performance and capabilities. During my tenure as a student at UTM, this utility played a pivotal role in my Final Year Project

Prepare to be amazed by the incredible technology of GIS software! This advanced tool is absolutely essential for modern-day mapping and spatial analysis. One of the most important features of GIS applications is the ability to convert between different coordinate systems, which is vital for accurate mapping. In 1998, at the Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, a groundbreaking program was developed that is still relevant today. This amazing application was created using Microsoft Visual Basic 6 in Windows 98 and can convert between the WGS84, MRT, RSO, and Cassini-Soldner systems. Despite its age, this program is still incredibly user-friendly, efficient, and lightning-fast.
