Judul: Konsep Dasar Pembuatan Distribusi ILOS Hasil Turunan Distribusi PCLinuxOS
Abstrak: Saat ini Open Source Software (OSS) berkembang cukup pesat karena kode sumbernya bebas untuk digunakan, dipelajari, dikembangkan dan disebarluaskan. GNU/Linux merupakan salah satu sistem operasi open source. Kebebasan yang diberikan oleh Open Source Software (OSS) tersebut memungkinkan orang atau perusahaan untuk membuat distribusi GNU/Linux sesuai kebutuhan masing-masing. Di Institut Pertanian Bogor (IPB), dengan adanya distribusi GNU/Linux ILOS (IPB Linux Operating System) diharapkan akan menjadi media pemersatu untuk Open Source Software (OSS) yang dibuat atau dikembangkan oleh mahasiswa IPB. Penelitian ini bertujuan memberikan penjelasan mengenai konsep dasar pembuatan distribusi GNU/Linux hasil re-mastering dengan batasannya adalah distribusi yang akan dibuat merupakan hasil re-mastering dari turunan atau keluarga Red Hat serta lingkungan desktop yang digunakan adalah K Desktop Environment (KDE).

Judul: The Development of ILOS Distribution for Education (ILOSedu).
Abstrak: The objective of this research is to develop a Linux distribution, ILOSedu, targeted for academic users. This distribution is built through remastering another established distribution, similar to the previously developed ILOS in 2008. In order to know the needed applications to include in ILOSedu, a survey was conducted at FMIPA IPB, participated by 27 students and 14 lecturers. We experimented with Fedora Core and PCLinuxOS using Revisor and Mklivecd to remaster, respectively. PCLinuxOS with Mklivecd was chosen for the final ILOSedu as it gave better flexibility in the remastering. Comparison results with ILOS show that ILOSedu has better hardware support. Keywords: Linux, ILOSedu, ILOS, remastering.

Judul: Morphofunction changes of gonadal and mandibular glands of the cave swiflets (Collocalia linchi) during nesting and reproductive period
Abstrak: The present study aimed to study the morphological and histochemical changes and possible correlation between the gonads and mandibular glands of the cave swiflets (Collocalia linchi) during reproductive and nesting period. A total of seventy two adult birds were used in this study. The birds, three males and three females, were collected each month during a period of one year. After being sacrificed, samples of gonads and mandibular salivary glands were taken out and processed routinely for light microscopy. The present result showed that the gonads were active during the period of February - June. In the testis, the size of the testicle were similar throughout the year, but the testis had different color according to month. The testis in June - January were black in color, and were white and black in February, March, May and were all white in April. The size and structure of the ovaries were also increase towards February - May. Therefore the period of February - June was regarded as reproductive period of the cave swiftlet. The size and structure of mandibular glands were also clearly increased and the glands were more active during the nesting and reproductive period. Histochemically, the bindings of some lectins in the gonad and mandibular glands were also increase in the number of reactive cells and in the intensities of the positive reactions during the nesting and reproductive period, suggested that certain carbohydrates were involved and may play important roles in the reproductive function of the cave swiftlet. The present result showed that there were clear signs on the functional and structural changes of the gonads and mandibular glands of the cave swiftlets during the active nesting and reproductive period, suggested a possible regulatory mechanism of the mandibular gland through gonadal hormones pathway.
