Abstract: Unusable information technology products and its unacceptability have been traced to the inability of the tech products to meet the needs and desire of the users, for whom the products are provided. Malaysia government has also been recording same users’ neglect on information technological infrastructure provided despite huge amount of money invested on the ICT project, most especially for the rural dwellers. The major reason of this users’ unacceptability have been traced to lack of proactive users’ requirements gathering. To address this in the intending development of mobile application for fishermen; who are also members of the target group to be provided mobile technologies by the Malaysian government, this study aims to validate the functional requirements of mobile applications for fishermen using a Qualitative-based users’ participatory design methodology. The result of the study shows that fishermen’sability to get weather updates, water safety information, track of storm and

Abstract: We believe that a robot should model and recognize a set of grounded responses that are built from knowledge about the nature of the interaction situation, and should also be able to ground responses that are found by semantics-free contingency detection.To carry out Research on Humanoid Robot effectively first in the absence of hardware support then building a Humanoid Robot for achieving data concurency by integerating data by the fusion of sensory datas in the humanoid robot .Multi Sensor fusion Studies for Dynamics nad Kinematics therrby achieving Data Concurrency by sensory data integeration by sensor fusion for range detecting by vision and navigation using simulink model and humanoid robot prototype. Within the current framework, we can model and recognize grounded responses as events. As future work, we will investigatehow to attribute semantics to ungrounded responses through iterative interactions and finaly by sensor fusion.In this Research, we could present a simple and rel
