This study aims to elaborate on the differences in the views of the Islamization of science between Syed Naquib Al-Attas and Bassam Tibi. The study uses a literature review from relevant sources. Al-Attas's thought is based on his concern for the doctrine that scientific terminology is identical to western civilization. Al-Attas carried out the movement of modernization and Islamization, this is a concrete effort in the human's liberation from the shackles of secular understanding confined in magical and mythological traditions that are contrary to Islam. However, Bassam Tibi rejects this opinion. Bassam Tibi opposes the Islamization because it is a form of indigenization which is related to the cultural strategy of Islamic fundamentalism, integrally. Islamization is considered as a reaffirmation of local knowledge to face global knowledge and cultural invasion

We follow two biodiversity knowledge infrastructures that hold conceptual and practical inner tensions, and we argue that some of these diffi culties emerge from overlooking local information and different understandings of the term location. The ambiguity emerges from two basic concepts of space – exogenous and interactionist – that are both necessary yet readily suggest inconsistent practices – global standardization and local fl exibility – to organize location records. Researchers in both infrastructures fi rst standardized, digitized and globalized their records, then discovered inner tensions, and fi nally alternated between globally interoperable and locally fl exible records. Our story suggests a broader lesson: since both types of ‘location’ information are necessary; and since vast resources were already invested in globalizing knowledge infrastructures; then investing in local knowledge infrastructures and in alternating between both types of memory practices seems the most rational option, and a good way to resist epistemic injustice affl icting local knowledge in peripheral localities.Keywords: biodiversity, database, epistemic-injustice

Local wisdom can be interpreted as principles of life, behaviour, rules, and punishments, as well as a view of life that regulate life, so that it can regulate and managing natural resources in the natural, social, and economic environments. Even local knowledge have adapted to environment obstacle. This research aims to investigate traditionally local knowledge for confronting Covid-19 pandemic. The method used is qualitative with an ethnography approach and literature review. Data are collected through in-depth interviews with leaders of Urug and Cipatat Kolot societies. In order to investigate Baduy and Ciptagelar communities used a literature review. Data are supported by documentation and observation sources. The sample is selected using a purposive sampling technique. The result is analysed through triangulation, which is by mixing some gathered data methods. The result is that Urug society allocates rice each year from their paddy yields to the vulnerable groups such as orphans, elderlies, widows, and persons need most. Secondly, collective action is used to jump the capacity of people like women through nujuh bulanan. Thirdly, societies exert taboo to combat disaster and Covid-19, including by prohibiting community from trading paddies and rice. Another finding is that indigenous knowledge uses some life strategies and utilizes natural capital optimally for overcoming life perturbances. The last finding is that local knowledge has preserved agriculture jobs as a venue to survive.

Recent approaches to preventive maintenance have shifted from periodic maintenance based on static parameters to a continuous and a periodic maintenance that deploys high-tech tools to track remotely the “health” of equipments. In this paper, we propose an approach to maintain a high level of reliability and to achieve the maximum efficient use of the working parts within vehicles and machines. This paper marks the use of various techniques in the remote maintenance and diagnostics by means of classical and new methods for monitoring equipments remotely. And hence identifying their failure at earlier stages and preventing their breakdown. The technique relies on an onboard device that monitors and analyses the vibrations of the targeted parts using local knowledge stored within the middleware data base and global knowledge obtained remotely from the server.

This research explored design opportunities and new challenges with a paradigm shift toward participatory processes in neighbourhood regeneration. Further, it emphasized the significance of local businesses and their local knowledge to overcome the challenges faced by designers. Three types of local knowledge Handler was established based on the Literature Review: Possessor, Processor, and Implementer. Through content analysis on 30 practical cases, 18 types of Actors in the process of participatory neighbourhood regeneration were identified. Based on these findings, two ways of local businesses’ contributing to neighbourhood regeneration projects were proposed: as a knowledge reservoir, and as a neighbourhood guide. As future studies, the authors suggest 1) understanding the types and forms of local knowledge possessed by local businesses and how to motivate them to share their knowledge; and 2) devising new methods of participation for local businesses that can enhance designers’ capabilities in neighbourhood contexts.

This paper aims to see the resistance shown by Islamic thinkers represented by Syed Naquib Al-Attas, Ismail Raji al-Faruqi, and Fazlurrahman against the development of civilization and intellectualism in the Western world. This study is a literature review that tries to answer questions about the development of Western civilization on Islamic civilization, especially in the intellectual world. This research finds that the development of knowledge in the western world cannot be separated from the methodology and contextualization developed by the West so that it is superior and more developed than the Islamic world

As more and more forms of AI become prevalent, it becomes increasingly important to understand how people develop mental models of these systems. In this work we study people's mental models of an AI agent in a cooperative word guessing game. We run a study in which people play the game with an AI agent while ``thinking out loud''; through thematic analysis we identify features of the mental models developed by participants. In a large-scale study we have participants play the game with the AI agent online and use a post-game survey to probe their mental model. We find that those who win more often have better estimates of the AI agent's abilities. We present three components---global knowledge, local knowledge, and knowledge distribution---for modeling AI systems and propose that understanding the underlying technology is insufficient for developing appropriate conceptual models---analysis of behavior is also necessary.

Unstructured overlays such as P2P networks and social networks stimulate many research areas. This kind of overlays is composed of a set of self-manageable entities which share objects between them in a spontaneous way. Getting a global knowledge such as popularity of shared objects or reputation of the entity is a challenging task because in such overlays, entities have only partial knowledge about the overlay state. In this paper, the authors focus on the file popularity measurement because this parameter can be efficiently used to improve object replication and object search performances. Some research works are proposed to measure this parameter, but these measurements are only based on local knowledge of peers. The authors propose Gpop, a global file popularity measurement for unstructured P2P networks which considers both local knowledge of the peer and knowledge of the other peers participating in the network to gain a global-like knowledge. Simulation results reinforce the authors' theoretical propositions and show that our measurement is closer to the real file popularity.
