Foreword

The Malaysia–Japan Academic Scholar Conference (MJASC) 2013 was organized

by researchers and student committee members from the Look East Policy (LEP),

which was convened successfully at Meiji University. The LEP was announced by

Malaysia’s fourth prime minister, Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad, on 8 February 1982,

and to date more than 15,000 Malaysians have studied or trained at more than

60 universities in Japan. The most important aspect of the Look East Policy is

development of a value system, a work culture and ethic that are compatible

globally. This is the key to our both nation’s success. Malaysia also has a strong

bilateral relationship with Japan, and this significant event for LEP was marked by

gathering students and policy makers as well as their Japanese counterparts at

MJASC 2013, where papers in various fields of study and research were presented.

The first version of this event was held last year: the Malaysia–Japan Academic

Scholar Seminar (MJASS) 2012. MJASS 2012 made a positive impact on the

significance of the Look East Policy, especially on the relationship between Malaysia

and Japan in terms of human capital and the development of both countries. MJASS

2012 also provided an opportunity for Malaysian and Japanese students to gather and

gain knowledge from the keynote speeches, the panel discussions, and the oral and

poster presentations.

The Malaysia–Japan Academic Scholar Seminar (MJASS) is now called the

Malaysia–Japan Academic Scholar Conference (MJASC) as a more suitable name

for an international conference. MJASC provides a unique platform for a diverse

community of constituents involved in the Look East Policy as a medium to

exchange knowledge and information about the latest research. The MJASC pro-

gram includes keynote lectures, panel discussions, poster sessions, and research

presentations—a good platform to promote the gathering and sharing of knowledge.

Thus, MJASC will concentrate on being a major source of information that com-

piles the research and studies of Malaysian and Japanese students here in Japan.

Preface

We were honored to welcome the attendees of the Malaysia Japan Academic

Scholar Conference (MJASC) 2013 which was held at the Surugadai Campus of

Meiji University, Tokyo, Japan, November 8–9, 2013.

First and foremost, allow us to take this opportunity to express our gratitude to

the committee members of MJASC 2013 for their dedication and hard work in the

realization of the conference. We would also like to thank all Malaysian and

Japanese academicians who shared their research work at MJASC 2013. Such

contributions allowed them not only to share their research knowledge and exper-

tise, but at the same time to create more opportunities for academicians in Malaysia

and Japan to collaborate in the future.

We believe that this was the best time to hold a conference in the fast-growing

field of technology research. The proceedings that came out of the conference will

be valuable both to contributors and to readers who have common interests in

nanoscience engineering, mechanical engineering, electrical and electronic engi-

neering, computer science, information technology, and related areas. These pro-

ceedings are a source of research findings for Malaysia and Japan specifically and

for other countries in general, among researchers, those in industry sectors, and

government policy makers. They will serve as a useful resource–reference and

platform to reflect the significance of the Look East Policy outcomes and products.

We are confident that these proceedings are of high quality among peer-

reviewed publications. We would like to thank our colleagues on the editorial

board, the first authors, and panel reviewers who have contributed to these confer-

ence proceedings, and the publisher Springer for their support.

Finally, we believe that these proceedings provide the reader with a great

intellectual experience, thus providing the best platform for the future development

and collaboration of Malaysia and Japan.
