Productivity improvement of fish crackers processing using simulation technique

Fish cracker is one of the famous foods that originated from East Coast of Malaysia consists of Terengganu, Kelantan and Pahang. It is mainly made from mixing of sago flour, fish, egg, salt and water. Up today, fish crackers are traditionally produces by small industries that not acquire the good pr...
