Look East Policy

Welcome from General Chair

It gives me great pleasure to welcome all participants to this inaugural

Malaysia Japan International Institute of Technology – Japanese University

Consortium (MJIIT-JUC) Joint Symposium, which is held at MJIIT,

Universiti Teknologi Malaysia Kuala Lumpur Campus, between 21 and 22

November 2012. MJIIT is fortunate to have 24 Japanese universities, known

as the JUC, participating not only in the Symposium but also in the

development of MJIIT, which is the Malaysian and Japanese governments

huge undertaking to provide a Japanese style engineering education with

Malaysian distinctiveness.

This Symposium aims at promoting cooperation between MJIIT and JUC,

which eventually would culminate into joint supervision at postgraduate

level and joint research undertakings. It is important that our young

researchers and postgraduate students take the opportunity to be involved

in such a symposium, deliberating on their research findings. The

Symposium is also an excellent platform to network between researchers

and students towards sustainable research collaboration.

The Symposium will cover the major areas of focus, namely: Electronic

Systems Engineering, Mechanical Precision Engineering, Environmental

and Green Technology, and Management of Technology. Four keynote

addresses and around 100 research papers will be presented at this

Symposium, with nearly 200 participants spanning from five countries.

I would like to take the opportunity to thank the researchers and

postgraduate students for their contribution and dedication to the

Symposium. Gratitudes to all the hardworking committee members and the

secretariat for materialising this Symposium. Last but not least our

appreciation to the Embassy of Japan, JICA and other sponsors for giving

their strong support for this Symposium.

LEARN THE PAST FOR THE FUTURE

-IN THE CASE OF DEVELOPMENT IN SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES-

PROF. SATORU MATSUMOTO

FACULTY OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY, KEIO UNIVERSITY

ABSTRACT:

It is known that the past is the guideline for the future. In this

presentation, we try to look for some clues for the future through the cases of

the development in semiconductor devices. First, we discuss on the creative

failure methodology introduced by Schockley in the invention of bipolar

junction transistor (BJT). He led the research group at Bell Laboratory to

develop the solid state (semiconductor) transistor in replace of the vacuum

triode, that is, the development of the field effect-type transistor (FET).

However, they failed to develop such an FET. Based on the analysis of this

failure, he invented the theory of BJT and he called this process as creative

failure. Second, we look back the development of the Metal-Oxide-Semi-

conductor Field Effect Transistor (MOSFET), which has been used as a

building block in LSI, and also discuss the original patent of integrated circuit

(IC) invented independently by Kilby (Texas Instrument) and Noyce (Intel).

The patent of Noyce indicated the fabrication method of IC with the planar

process technology, which is leading to the present modern IC technology.

Finally we discuss the development of non-volatile semiconductor memory.

Flash memory invented by Prof. Masuoka (Toshiba) has been used extensively

in daily life as a convenient device. Flash memory is a type of EEPROM

(electronically erasable and programmable read only memory). The EEPROM

was developed from the preceding device of EPROM (electronically program

mable ROM). Semiconductor devices have been developed from pursuing the

better performance and therefore it is important to analyze the operating

principle of the preceding device in detail and to add new functions with new

structures. In this process, creative failure methodology proposed by Shockley

acts as a guiding principle.

BIOGRAPHY:

Dr.Matsumoto received his bachelor, mas-er and doctor Degrees of Electrical Engi- neering at Keio University in 1971, 1973, and 1977, respectively .He was employed as an assistant at Keio University in 1976, and now a professor. He has been working on the semiconductor process and device technology and published over 100 papers. He will become a professor at MJIIT, Kuala Lumpur from April 2013.

ADDITIVES FOR THE REDUCTION OF POUR POINT OF PALM DIESEL

PROF. ZURIATI ZAKARIA

MALAYSIA JAPAN INTERNATIONAL INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY

ABSTRACT:

Palm diesel is a better choice for renewable energy compared to other vegetable oils due to its higher yield per hectare as well as the high production of crude palm oil and palm kernel oil which constitute 38% of the world output of major oils. The demand for biodiesel is high in the European countries due to the EU directive to reduce the dependency on fossil fuel. However, the disadvantage for palm diesel is its pour point where improvement has to be made to make it suitable to be used in European countries. The pour point (PP) properties of palm oil methyl esters were evaluated with commercially available polymeric and surfactant compounds with various polarities, molecular sizes and structures. The compounds under study were poly(ethylene glycol), poly (methyl methacrylate), poly (ethylene- co-vinylacetate) , poly(styrene-co-maleic anhydride), poly(ethylene glycol) distea- rate, poly-(octadecyl methacrylate), poly(1-decene), poly(maleic anhydride-alt-1- octadecene), caprylic acid sodium salt, N-lauroylsarcosine sodium salt, polyo- xyethylene(2) cetyl ether and polyoxyethylene(10) cetyl ether. Seven out of the twelve polymeric compounds tested were miscible in palm oil methyl esters due to similar polarities of the solute and biodiesel. The blends of the resultant seven polymeric compounds in palm oil methyl esters were evaluated respectively for their effect on the PP property. Poly-(maleic anhydride-alt-1-octadecene) was able to improve the PP of palm oil methyl esters from 12 to 6 oC when 2 wt-% was added. The cloud point was reduced from 12.9 to 8.1 oC, and the cold filter plugging point was reduced from 12 to 7 oC, whilst the flash point value remained un- changed at 156 oC when 2 wt-% of poly(maleic anhydride-alt-1- octadecene) was added to the palm oil methyl esters.

BIOGRAPHY:

Prof Datin Dr Zuriati Zakaria is an organic chemist with more than 35 years service at Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia. A Fellow of the Academy of Science Malaysia, she is currently heading the Environmental Engineering and Green Technology Department at MJIIT, UTM. She has been the Honorary Secretary of Institut Kimia Malaysia, the professional body of Chemists in Malaysia for more than 10 years and has been recently elected to be the Treasurer General of the Federation of Asian Chemical Societies from 2012-2013.

INTRODUCTION TO TRIBOLOGY FOR ENERGY AND

ENVIRONMENT

PROF. JOICHI SUGIMURA

FACULTY OF ENGINEERING, KYUSHU UNIVERSITY

INTERNATIONAL INSTITUTE FOR CARBON-NEUTRAL ENERGY RESEARCH, KYUSHU UNIVERSITY

ABSTRACT:

Brief introduction to tribology and its contribution to saving energy

and environment is given in this keynote presentation. Basic concepts of tribology, science and technology of interacting surfaces in relative motion,

are introduced first. To reduce and to control friction and wear have been

essential problems not only in machines but also in our everyday lives. Today it attracts more attention than ever as one of the key technologies

for the sustainable development. Advanced technologies including

coatings, lubricating films, and surface texturing are introduced next. Their applications and some recent researches are shown. Finally,

tribological issue in introducing new energy systems is shown. One of the

challenges for future energy is the research project on materials for sliding components used in hydrogen in Kyushu University and

National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology.

BIOGRAPHY:

Prof. Joichi Sugimura has been working in the field of tribology in Kyushu University for more than twenty five years since he received a doctoral degree from the University of Tokyo in 1986. He has also been working on hydrogen energy, including hydrogen refueling station, education of hydrogen energy systems, and researches on hydrogen tri- bology. He is a leader of the hydrogen tribology team in a national institute (AIST) from 2006. Current research interests are tribology in hydrogen en- vironment, microgeometry in thin film lubrication, fluid transportation in dynamic seals, grease lubri- cation and risk assessment in hydrogen systems.

COGENCY RELATIONSHIPS IN KNOWLEDGE SHARING AND

TRANSFER: QUO VADIS MJIIT

PROF. ROZHAN OTHMAN

MALAYSIA-JAPAN INTERNATIONAL INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY,

UNIVERSITI TEKNOLOGI MALAYSIA

ABSTRACT:

The sharing and transfer of knowledge and technology is an

important aspect of capability development for many organizations. Yet, research evidence shows that knowledge sharing and transfer is fraught

with many challenges. Failure is not rare and success is often limited.

Among other things, the cogency relationship that exists in organizations can undermine the effectiveness of knowledge sharing

and transfer. Even simple attempts at knowledge sharing and transfer

often fail because the parties involved ignore the intricacies of the process. This address will highlight some of the issues that need to be

addressed in managing knowledge sharing and transfer. It highlights

the complexity of the knowledge sharing and transfer process. The discussion is framed within the context of the MJIIT initiative.

BIOGRAPHY:

Dr. Rozhan Othman has been in academia for almost 30 years. He has been involved in teaching, research and consultancy. His current area of research interest includes talent management, innovative leadership behaviour and value configurations. He is also the coordinator of the Technology Management program at MJIIT.
