WEEK 8

We were exposed to 'Blockchain' before our class started today. So, what is Blockchain?

"Blockchain is the world's leading software platform for digital assets. Offering the largest production block chain platform in the world, new technology is used and incorporated to build a radically better financial system."

While Bitcoin is one of the important components when comes to talk on Blockchain.

Bitcoin is a worldwide cryptocurrency and digital payment system. It is called the first decentralized digital currency, as the system works without a central repository or single administrator. However, all this while, this system is only being implemented in foreign countries.

Recently, Malaysia is trying to bring in and work on Blockchain. It is said to be will bring convenience to all the industries, thereby contributing to country's economic growth. As Bitcoin which acts as money in virtual form will increase the effectiveness in terms of financial flow in businesses. On the other hand, lifespan of Bitcoin is long enough (persist up to 2140) to ignore problems like coins expired before spent.

Since we're from Faculty of Food Science and Technology, to integrate the concept of Bitcoin in food industry, perhaps virtual factory can be built instead of the traditional/old types factory. Aside from that, Bitcoin can be installed to replace cashier counter to help in collecting money in the future.

During the lab session, progress on CIP had been updated. Presentation on websites will be conducted on the coming Wednesday, thus everything should be done and finalized latest by Tuesday. And we did Excel Exercise 2 in the class too. All these are really useful and definitely will be applied in workplace later.

With these, it summarized the FSM4401 class in Week 8. Week 8, like usual, was a tough week. Tonnes of assignments and works to do and this is so called student's life. Anyway, am trying to love my life because life is a beautiful thing and there's so much to smile about :))

Our FSM4401 class is on every Wednesday from 10-12pm (tutorial) and 2-5pm (lab). While there was some exception for this week class, as our class had been replaced by websites presentation, CIP-UPM , which means that we had whole day presentation the past Wednesday. The presentation was conducted in one of the meeting rooms at Food 5. It was a brand new experience for us since that was the first time we gave presentation in such meeting room (presentation is usually conducted in classroom ). Everything was fine. Each group was given one hour time to setup, present with Q&A session. During the presentation, we talked on SWOT analysis of WaffleWaffle! At Bkt Serdang and also had an brief explanation on the websites we designed for them. I was the one who start the presentation on that day. A bit regret to say that I was not so in condition while our group was presenting. Kind of blur. Anyhow, it is done and let's improve next time. I have a bunch of lovely teammates. F...

WEEK 14

This week will be the very last week for my semester 6. Today, for FSM4401, we learnt supply chain management (SCM). From that, I get to know that the elements in supply chain can be categorized into upstream and downstream. Orders, information, payments and returns are of upstream while products, services and information are grouped under downstream. Vertical integration is introduced by Dr in class. It has few definition but here, in terms of management and business, it is said as by combining all the suppliers, work can be done effectively. On the other word, it is said to be strategy applied to control all the suppliers, thereby targeted outcome can be achieved easier. Then, we were told that there are total 3 flows in supply chain, known as material flows, information flows and financial flows. These are of the key components as supply chain will not be able to work or function without any of the flow. Our class is continued with the importance of building up a well-s...
