  • The coordination and control of construction projects is vital if a project is to be a success. Almost all analysis has shown that these can only be achieved if good quality communication can be maintained on a construction site. This research focuses on the role that tablet computers could play in enhancing this communication. The following points are investigated in this paper: (a) Whether a tablet computer can enable users to monitor project progress more efficiently than traditional methods, (b) How the tablet computer fits within the project management iron triangle in construction, (c) The two different psychological impacts of information transmission for the end user using a tablet computer (i) The expectancy to transmit information frequently and rapidly from tablet computer users to project members whilst working onsite (ii) The mode of information transmission to the cognition of the transmitted information to the tablet computer. Through the use of structured interviews and questionnaires, the opinions of individuals within various disciplines in construction were canvassed. The approach adopted in this paper deals with understanding both the soft and hard issues for deploying such a system. This research enabled the authors to develop a base framework incorporating the key factors which are relevant for implementing a tablet computer based on information flows primarily.

  • The purpose of the paper was to investigate students' perceptions of tablet computer-based mobile learning in a middle school. We examined the perceptions in terms of: 1) learning effectiveness, which refers to the effects of tablet computer on learning outcomes such as the grade; 2) attitude change, which is the change of students' attitudes and study habit; 3) learning activities, which refers to the kinds of learning activities using tablet computer; and 4) computer utilization, which is the ways of computer use in the study. The result showed that, in general, tablet computer affected all four types of perceptions positively.

  • There are a variety of alternative products in the computer markets. A tablet PC, which is a small type of computer, is expanding its market share as an independent type of computer products. The purpose of this study is to find out what the factors are that led to the success of the tablet PC. A research study was carried out on the intention to use of tablet PCs by consumers. The factors that affect the intention to use of tablet PCs users were structured on the basis of attitude theory. According to the one-dimensional theory of attitude, cognitive factors affect the affective factors, which in turn affect conative factors. In the study, the relations between each dimension were set up. The hypothesis was tested by structural equation modeling. The test results are as follows. First, the values and satisfaction that the owners of tablet PCs feel from the products and the positive comments on the products from their nearby acquaintances affect in a positive way how much they like their products. Second, the products surrounding the tablet PCs did not affect the intention to use of the products. Third, the product favorability that the owners of tablet PCs feel affects the intention to use in a meaningful way. The results of the research also show that hi-tech products such as tablet PCs affect their attitude after they buy and use the products. This attitude affects intention to use of the products. The managers of companies that produce hi-tech products should consider the cognitive and affective aspects of the product owners when manufacturing and marketing products.

  • In this paper efficient design of wireless tablet system using GalaxyNote device for PC was proposed. The designed portable tablet consists of GalaxyNote device, Stylus Pen, and Bluetooth-to-serial converter. To transmit coordinate information of Stylus Pen on GalaxyNote device to PC, wireless portable tablet uses bluetooth wireless communications. After the custom mouse filter driver divides received coordinate into x-coordinate and y-coordinate, it controls position of mouse pointer using the converted coordinates while Windows application programs are running.

  • In this study, the veridical efficacy of an aquatic disinfectant tablet composed to calcium hypochlorite against red sea bream iridovirus (RBIV). A veridical efficacy was determined with the viability of RBIV contacted with the disinfectant in viral stock cultured in fat head minnow cell line. An aquatic disinfectant tablet and RBIV were reacted on the distilled water (DW), hard water (HW) or organic matter suspension (OM) condition. On DW and HW condition, RBIV was inactivated with 25,000 fold dilutions of an aquatic disinfectant tablet. With the investigation of the antiviral effect of the disinfectant on OM condition, RBIV was inactivated on 22,000 fold dilutions of an aquatic disinfectant tablet. As an aquatic disinfectant tablet possesses veridical efficacy against RBIV, the disinfectant solution can be used to limit the spread of cultured marine fish viral disease.

  • It is well-known that inducing learner's spontaneous participation and teacher-student interaction are highly efficient way of teaching and learning. The traditional one-sided, teacher-centered lecture seemed to be inefficient systematically to support the interaction in classroom. Recently, the government was planning to provide the students with Tablet as a part of the informatization project, but it ended up providing only the content of the lecture, not allowing the interaction to occur in classroom. In this paper, we propose a system which aims to support interaction between a teacher and students by utilizing the Web server and Tablet.

  • Presently, there has been growing interests in using mathematics' history in teaching mathematics [Katz, V. & Tzanakis, C. (Eds.) (2011). Recent Developments on Introducing a Historical Dimension in Mathematics Education. Washington, DC: Mathematical Association of America]. Thus, this article introduces some work of scholars from ancient East Indian culture like Bhaskara (AD 1114-1185) and Arabic culture such as Ibn Qurrah (AD 9th c) that are related to Pythagoras Theorem. In addition, some Babylonian creative works related to Pythagorean triples found in a tablet known as 'Plimpton 322', and an application of the Pythagorean Theorem found in another tablet named 'Yale Tablet' are presented. Applications of computer animation of dissection Motion Operations concept in 2D and 3D using dynamic software like Geometer's-Sketchpad and Cabri-II-and-3D. Nowadays, creative minds are attracted by the recent stampede in the advances of technological applications in visual literacy; consequently, innovative environments that would help young students, gifted or not, acquiring meaningful conceptual understanding would immerge.

  • Objectives: The objectives of this study were to identify the virucidal efficacy against the viral hemorrhagic septicemia virus (VHSV) of an aquatic disinfectant tablet composed of calcium hypochlorite. Methods: Virucidal efficacy was determined through the viability of VHSV contacted with the disinfectant in a viral stock cultured in a fathead minnow cell line. An aquatic disinfectant tablet and VHSV were reacted under distilled water (DW), hard water (HW) or organic matter suspension (OM) conditions. Results: Under DW and HW conditions, VHSV was inactivated with 24,000- and 2000-fold dilutions of the aquatic disinfectant tablet, respectively. With the investigation of the antiviral effect of the disinfectant under OM conditions, VHSV was inactivated with a 16,000-fold dilution of the aquatic disinfectant tablet. Conclusions: The results from this study showed that the aquatic disinfectant tablet was a highly effective disinfectant against VHSV. In the future, a controlled field trial is required to determine whether the use of an aquatic disinfectant tablet will be able to reduce VHSV in a cultured marine fish farm.
