Judul: Perancangan sistem penunjang keputusan rantai pasok dan penilaian risiko mutu pada agroindustri minyak sawit kasar
Abstrak: Supply chain management and quality risk in crude palm oil (CPO)agroindustry was indispensable to achieve superiority in value and productivity. Aspects that require a special attention were quality risk, supply of crude palm oil, harvest-transport-processing management and transportation of fresh fruit bunches. A main problem was the productivity improvement by analyzing all those important aspects. The objective of this research was to design a decision support syste m which consists of integration of risk assessment, inventory control, supply chain optimization, and fresh fruit bunches transportation scheduling.

Judul: Rancang Bangun Penilaian Risiko Mutu dalam Rantai Pasokan Minyak Sawit Kasar dengan Pendekatan Sistem Dinamis : Studi Kasus PT. Perkebunan Nusantara IV (Persero) Unit Adolina
Abstrak: Indonesian palm oil industry has grown significantly in recent years and since 2006 has surpassed Malaysia to become the world’s largest Crude Palm Oil (CPO) producer. With the ever increasing of potential market and market demands for its palm oil products, Indonesia will need to ensure the highest level of palm oil products quality. The main objectives of this research are first, to identify the factors to measure the success of Palm Oil Mills (POM) Adolina’s management. Secondly to design a system dynamic model as a tool to determine the quality risk assessment pattern of POM Adolina. The results from simulation of this model will be referenced when formulating managerial policies. The dynamic model comprises three sub-models, namely production sub-model, transportation sub-model and inventory sub-model respectively. In conclusion, this research produced the formulation of the most important factors to measure management success, namely the level of CPO production and the level of free fatty acid (FFA), and also generated simulation of managerial policies. To obtain them three scenarios were considered, the basic, the dynamic behavior and the risk assessment scenarios. Probabilistic and uncertainty parameters were considered in the third scenario.

Judul: Karakteristik Anatomi Skelet Kepala Buaya senyulong (Tomistoma schlegelii).
Abstrak: Buaya sepit atau senyulong (Tomistoma schlegelii) merupakan jenis buaya asli Indonesia yang berhabitat di sungai-sungai Sumatera, Kalimantan, dan juga pedalaman Sulawesi. Salah satu ciri khas buaya senyulong adalah bentuk moncong yang runcing dan sempit, namun hingga saat ini informasi mengenai struktur skelet kepala buaya senyulong sangat terbatas. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mempelajari karakteristik anatomi skelet kepala buaya senyulong yang dikatikan dengan fungsi dan perilakunya. Penelitian dilakukan secara eksploratif dengan melakukan pengamatan, pencatatan, dan pengambilan gambar dari skelet kepala buaya senyulong. Skelet kepala berukuran panjang 70 cm, lebar 29 cm, dan tingggi 17 cm dengan permukaan kasar pada os nasale, os frontale, os maxilla, os mandibula, os lacrimale, os jugale. Jumlah gigi pada buaya ini sebanyak 78 buah, terdiri dari 4 buah gigi premaxila, 16 buah gigi maxila, dan 19 buah gigi mandibula. Pada regio orbitalis ditemukan dua pasang fenestrae temporales yang berkembang baik. Fenestra supratemporale merupakan lubang oval yang membentang di sepanjang os parietale. Fenestra infratemporale berbentuk segitiga dan dibatasi oleh os squamosum, os postorbitale, os jugulare, dan os quadratum. Os mandibula hewan ini mempunyai symphysis mandibularis yang panjang yaitu garis yang melintang di corpus mandibulae. Secara fungsional ukuran symphysis mandibularis berkaitan dengan adaptasi hewan terhadap diet makan.
