Judul: Production System Design of Banana (Musa paradisiaca) Based Energy Bar Agroindustry
Abstrak: Market demand for fruit and cereals based energy bar is increasing in various countries. On the other hand, high production of banana as raw material in Indonesia makes energy bar prospective to develop in industrial scale. Energy bar is a product that contains high concentration of protein, fats and carbohydrates. It can be used for various purposes such as in: military, aviation, tourism, search and rescue, exploratory research, complementary foods, and emergency food product. Establishment of a banana based energy bar agroindustry requires an in-depth study. Therefore, study on the production system model is needed to know which model is suitable to be implemented in real world. The model is expected to be able to help the stakeholder to get information and make decision about production system in banana based energy bar agroindustry. This research was conducted using system engineering approach. Each component of the system was designed and then developed in the form of webbased computer application model. The designed system components were: (1) process technology, (2) mass and energy balance, (3) industrial location selection, (4) facility layout, and (5) financial feasibility analysis. The UML (universal modeling language) was used to analyze the system. Hypertext preprocessor (PHP) and hypertext markup language (HTML) were used to develop web-based computer application model. The results showed that the model was able to describe the production process, location selection, facility layout planning, and financial feasibility analysis of banana based energy bar industrial planning project. The production system model could help decision maker to make decision related to the production system of banana based energy bar agroindustry. Based on the validity of the model, it was concluded that the model could be implemented in real world and was financially feasible. The model was more sensitive toward decreasing product selling price than increasing raw material price.

Judul: Sistem penunjang keputusan perencanaan pengembangan agroindustri Manggis (Garcinia mangostana Linn) (studi kasus di Kabupaten Bogor)
Abstrak: Mangosteen has become the Queen of commodities to export fresh fruit to foreign countries. But the numbers are still about 20% of the total production in Indonesia is mostly caused by low quality of the fruit. For that, they need diversified commodities processed mangosteen products. The objectives of this research to develop a model of decision support system for mangosteen agroindustry development in bogor district and recommend a strategy for planning and development of the agroindustry to the government of Bogor district and mangosteen prospective employers. Decision support system for mangosteen agroindustry development implemented into a computer program package called mangosteen 1.0 by using Pascal programming language in Embarcadero Delphi XE which consists of six models, including model of prospective product, site analysis model, model of analysis production centers, model of the mangosteen cultivation financial feasibility, model of agro-industry financial feasibility, and model of mangosteen development strategy. Decision support system using the comparison ekponensial method ( MPE), and analitical Hierarchy Process method (AHP). This mangosteen agro-industrial is plan to be located in Dramaga based on site selection using MPE method with a capacity of 50.000 bottles of mangosteen xanthone per month. This research programme shows that the mangosteen agro-industrial of xanthone is feasible with NPV Rp. 8.804.311.994, IRR 52%, Pay Back Period (PBP) 3 years and 3 months, and B/C Ratio 2.76.

Judul: Infeksi Virus Parainfluenza Pada Anjing
Abstrak: Virus parainfluenza anjing termasuk famili Paramyxoviridae, berbentuk pleomorf dengan ukuran bervariasi (bergaris tengah antara 100-500 nm), berpembungkus peka ether, berisi genom RNA dan secara serologis mempunyai kesamaan dengan virus SV-5 kera; dikenak sebagai salah satu kausa penting dari sindrom "kennel cough". Infeksinya dapat mengenai anjing semua umur yang belum pernah terinfeksi atau mendapatkan vaksinasi mengakibatkan gejala klinis ringan yang terbatas pada traktus respirasi atu infeksi yang secara klinis tidak memperlihatkan gejala nyata. Gejala klinis yang nampak setelah masa inkubasi (1-5 hari) terlewati berupa batuk yang tidak berat selama beberapa hari, berbagai tingkat tonsilitis dan pharyngitis dan kadang-kadang ditemukan kenaikan temperatur rektal antara 1-2 derajat C dari temperatur normal rat-rata. Anjing terinfeksi mengandung virus pada traktus respirasi bagian atas dan bawah serta limfonoduli sampai hari ke 9 setelah infeksi. Penyebaran virus antar anjing terjadi secara aerogen.
