Judul: System dynamics modelling for the design of green tea industry supply chain management
Abstrak: In the recent competitive era, business actors should aware that competition among supply chains was the condition faced by their business. This condition required a supply chain management theory and practice integrating the management of business functions in an inter-organizational relation. This research used system dynamics methodology aiming to design for green tea industry supply chain management. In addition, this research developed a supply chain management performance measurement, which integrated balanced scorecard performance measurement with value-added measurement.

Abstrak: The supply chain is a network that performs the procurement of raw material, the transportation of raw material to intermediate and end products, and the distribution of finished products to retailers or directly to customers. There was many complexity problem of supply chain. Simulation is often seen as a proper means for supporting by enabling modeling and analysis of alternative supply chain designs. Simulation is one of the most popular tools employed in the operational analysis of supply chains.. How to design a supply chain model was an interesting matter. The aims of this research were to design a model of supply chain for a small scale entreprise of integrated coconut industry and to get a total supply chain cost from simulation’s result. Minimization of total supply chain cost was an indicator from the model.

Judul: Penentuan jenis kelamin merpati kipas (columba livia) berdasarkan kromosom, hormon, ornamen bulu, tingkah laku seksual dan nilai hematologis
Abstrak: Pada penelitian ini diujicobakan penentunan jenis kelamin berdasarkan analisis kromosom, penentuan kadar hormon estrogen, pengukuran panjang barbula bulu, pengamatan tingkah laku seksual dan penentuan nilai hematologis terhadap 20 ekor burung merpati kipas, yang terdiri dari 10 ekor dewasa dan 10 ekor lepas sapih. Dengan kombinasi 0.5 ml darah utuh, 300 μl phythohemaglutinin, 1 ml fetal calf serum dan 5 ml media kultur RPMI 1640, diperoleh lebih dari 10 kumpulan me tafase kromosom dalam satu preparat. Analisis kromosom dengan teknik kultur darah hanya 0.5 ml ternyata dapat membedakan jenis kelamin merpati kipas dewasa maupun lepas sapih. Jumlah kromsom diperoleh 40 pasang dan tipe pasangan kromosom seksnya adalah metasentrik. Hasil penentuan kadar hormon estrogen serum darah menunjukkan bahwa pada merpati kipas betina dewasa kadar estradiol serumn ya 6.529 ± 2.575 p g/ml lebih tinggi (P<0.01) dari pada yang jantan dewasa, 2.011 ± 0.400 pg/ml. Sedangkan untuk merpati kipas betina lepas sapih, 3.007 ± 1.201 pg/ml, tidak berbeda nyata (P>0.01) dengan merpati lepas sapih jantan 1.678 ± 0.190 pg/ml. Pengukuran panjang barbula bulu merpati kipas dewasa jantan didapatkan panjang barbula sayap 346.18 ± 5.15 μm, ekor 388.9 3 ± 39.82 μm, dan badan 371.45 ± 28.80 μm lebih panjang (P<0.01) dari pada panjang barbula bulu sayap, ekor, dan badan burung merpati kipas betina, masing-masing adalah 303.81 ± 6.94 μm, 292.03 ± 26.50 μm, 285.76 ± 40.09 μm, tetapi untuk panjang barbula bulu sayap, ekor dan badan pada burung merpati kipas lepas sapih tidak berbeda (P>0.01) antara jantan dan betina. ...
