Perancangan Sistem Administrasi Tingkat RT Menggunakan Metode Rad

Neighborhood pillars and community units or more often referred to as RT/RW are government institutions that interact and deal directly with the wider community. Like other government institutions, this institution also has an administrative system to serve the community. However, if all other government institutions have computerized administrative systems, in RT/RW the administrative system is still manual, this of course creates problems for RT/RW officers because they cannot work effectively and efficiently. In order for RT/RW officers to work more effectively and efficiently, it is necessary to build a computerized system. In building a computerized system for RT/RW officers, the Rapid Application Development (RAD) method is used, which is a system design method that is faster in its design process than the waterfall method.&#x0D; By using the RAD method, a system that is completed on time according to the plan is produced, so that it can be directly implemented by RT/RW officers. So that RT/RW officers can immediately work more effectively and efficiently as in other government institutions.&#x0D; &#x0D; Keywords: administration, RAD method, PHP, Mysql

Penerapan Metode Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) Dan Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) Dalam Pemilihan Karyawan Terbaik Pada Koperasi Simpan Pinjam Surya Kencana

Selection of the best employees is an important aspect, because it provides useful information for making human resources (HR) decisions such as promotions, training, bonuses, and other decisions. In addition, it is also important for the chairman of the board to formulate a mature policy to motivate employees. The obstacle to selecting the best employee at the Surya Kencana Savings and Loans Cooperative was that there was no selection of the best employee beforehand, so the chairman of the Cooperative management did not know the performance of his employees. The AHP method aims to get the weight value of each criterion. Then the SAW method which aims to classify values for each alternative based on predetermined criteria is used in the development of a decision support system. This study assesses the performance of the employees of the lending division at the Surya Kencana Savings and Loans Cooperative. By using the calculation of the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) methods, it will produce a performance value for each employee, so that the head of the cooperative can determine the best alternative, namely employees in the lending division. This research will produce a decision support system (SPK) that can recommend the best employees in the lending division of the Surya Kencana Savings and Loans Cooperative based on predetermined criteria such as attendance, targets, discipline, and collaboration with the AHP and SAW methods

Reception or Deception?- Participants’ Disengagement during Teleconferencing in the Gambia Context

Purpose: Teleconferencing, a mode of organizational and informal group communication, has become so dominant in the epidemic era that it impacts highly on organizational functions. This descriptive study carried out among teleconferencing users in Kanifing Municipal Council of The Gambia sought to investigate the respondents’ perceptions of the prevalence of the practice of disengaging during teleconferencing, the reasons why people disengage during teleconferencing, the gender dimension to disengaging during teleconferencing and how participants can be kept actively engaged during teleconferencing.&#x0D; Methodology: Both the quantitative and qualitative survey methods were adopted. 77 people responded to the questionnaire. In-depth interviews were also conducted with 5 frequent users of teleconferencing platforms.&#x0D; Findings: The results show that the practice of disengagement during teleconferencing is highly prevalent. 52 percent of the respondents admitted that they don’t listen all through the teleconferencing events; 76.1 percent have got up at one time or the other to attend to other issues; 19.7 percent have got up more than 20 times to attend to other issues; and 81.3 percent of the participants have experienced situations where participants stayed signed in even though they were no longer in the meeting. Major reasons given for participants’ disengagement include internet accessibility, cited by 40.5 percent of the respondents; distraction, cited by 40.4 percent. 14.4 percent of the respondents cited the fact that participants have the confidence that others in the meeting will be unaware of their disengagement. This claim was also buttressed by 4 of the key informants during the in-depth interview. Most of the respondents, 87 percent, were of the view that females disengage more often than males. 60 percent of those who express this view gave engagement with domestic chores as the reason for this. Ways suggested to keep participants engaged include ensuring meeting adopt the participatory mode, suggested by 24.3 percent of the respondents; solving internet issues of instability, suggested by 24.3percent; demanding that participants keep on their videos, suggested by 17.1 percent; ensuring meeting schedules and timing are favourable, suggested by 15.7 percent and lowering internet data costs, suggested by 7.1 percent.&#x0D; Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: The study concludes that disengagement during teleconferencing is highly prevalent, distractions and internet problems of connectivity and affordability are major reasons for disengagement and organisers of teleconferencing must control for these factors. It is recommended that organisations offer their staff gadgets for internet access; the government on its own part should explore all means possible to ensure internet stability in the Gambia.

Penguraian Masalah Banjir di Kampung Akrilik, Kelurahan Gunung Pangilun, Padang

Along with the increasing number of residents every year, the higher the cost of constructing houses or buildings. The high number of developments every year requires attention from the community or project owners to pay attention to matters regarding water catchment areas. We often see buildings or housing covering the drainage channels underneath for access in and out of the building without making control tanks or openings for cleaning the drainage channels; sometimes, some reduce the width of the drainage. The lack of water catchment areas and drainage channels will cause flooding if it rains continuously. Therefore, a survey was conducted regarding the causes of the flooding that occurred in Acrylic Village, Gunung Pangilun Village, through the Humanitarian Project MBKM program. With the survey of the village, it was known what causes the flooding in the village; then, a solution was planned to solve this problem scientifically.
Layered mixed-precision training: A new training method for large-scale AI models

How to efficiently and quickly train large-scale AI models has become a hot topic in recent deep learning. Mixed-precision training is an effective technique to speed up training and reduce memory usage. At present, the automatic mixed-precision training method mainly uses half-precision (FP16) for the matrix operations of forward and backward propagation of the entire model and accumulates the FP32 weight copies to avoid rounding errors. However, this method is not optimized for each layer individually, leading to poor convergence in large-scale model training because different layers have different data patterns. Therefore, this paper proposes a layered mixed-precision training method, which can flexibly adjust training precisions according to the contribution of each layer to the training effect. Applying the layered mixed-precision method, the ResNet model achieves a 1.9× speedup compared to the baseline and a lower percentage of accuracy loss. In addition, this paper combines the layered mixed-precision method with distributed training strategies. Combining data parallel training, the model achieves a 3.74× speedup by using four Tesla V100 GPUs. The applicability of the layered mixed-precision method in model parallel training has been verified. Combining optimized pipeline parallel training, the model achieves a 3.26× speedup by using three Tesla V100 GPUs.
On the Global Structure of PUBOi Fitness Landscapes

In most of the existing benchmark generators for combinatorial optimization, one cannot tune variable importance, making the generation of real-like instances challenging. However, when it comes to the study of optimization algorithms or new problems there is a lack of real-like instances. To achieve more real-like instances, a recently proposed generator, PUBOi (Polynomial Unconstrained Binary Optimization with importance), includes parameters that directly influence variable weights. The parameters of this generator enable the generation of landscapes with varying properties, such as ruggedness and neutrality levels, yet their global structure and the impact on optimization algorithm behavior remain to be studied. In this work, we use local optima networks to observe the differences in the landscape's global structure according to variable importance. Both the visualization and the metrics highlight how the landscapes are affected by the variable importance parameters of PUBOi, and that landscapes with variable importance resemble real-like ones previously observed. We also conduct a first performance analysis using two iterated local search algorithms and observe different behaviors on different PUBOi instances according to variable weights distribution.
Digging Deeper: Operator Analysis for Optimizing Nonlinearity of Boolean Functions

Finding Boolean functions with specific properties is a complex combinatorial optimization problem where the search space grows super-exponentially with the number of input variables. One common property of interest is the nonlinearity of Boolean functions. Constructing highly nonlinear Boolean functions is difficult as it is not always known what nonlinearity values can be reached in practice. In this paper, we investigate the effects of the genetic operators for bit-string encoding in optimizing nonlinearity. While several mutation and crossover operators have commonly been used, the link between the genotype they operate on and the resulting phenotype changes is mostly obscure. The analysis reveals interesting insights into operator effectiveness and indicates how algorithm design may improve convergence compared to an operator-agnostic genetic algorithm.
