Judul: Perancangan Antarmuka Pengguna Sistem Informasi Kenaikan Pangkat di BPPT Menggunakan Metode Galitz
Abstrak: Badan Pengkajian dan Penerapan Teknologi (BPPT) mulai menerapkan pelayanan teknologi informasi untuk membantu dalam penyebaran informasi kepada seluruh pegawai yang tersebar di beberapa kota seperti Jakarta, Serpong, Lampung, Yogyakarta, Surabaya, dan Denpasar. Maka Biro Sumber Daya Manusia dan Organisasi ingin meningkatkan pelayanan kepegawaian dalam proses kenaikan pangkat pegawai. Selama ini proses pengumpulan persyaratan kenaikan pangkat (KP) masih dilakukan dengan mengumpulkan berkas-berkas langsung ke sekretariat sehingga prosesnya memakan waktu lebih lama. Maka dari itu agar proses pengumpulan persyaratan KP berjalan lebih baik diperlukan suatu aplikasi yang dapat membantu dalam proses manajemen KP, dimulai dari membuat usulan KP, persetujuan atasan dan mengunggah dokumen persyaratan. Untuk mempermudah proses KP ini dirancang antarmuka pengguna Sistem Informasi Kenaikan Pangkat dengan menggunakan Metode Galitz.

Judul: Penerapan Metode AHP-TOPSIS dan AHP-SAW untuk Menentukan Kenaikan Jabatan pada PT Indah Logistik Internasional
Abstrak: Kenaikan jabatan merupakan penghargaan yang diberikan atas prestasi kerja dan pengabdian pegawai terhadap negara ataupun perusahaan, serta sebagai dorongan kepada pegawai untuk lebih meningkatkan prestasi kerja dan pengabdiannya. Dalam menentukan kenaikan jabatan karyawan dibutuhkan sistem pendukung keputusan untuk mendapatkan hasil yang sesuai harapan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menerapkan suatu metode pengambilan keputusan untuk menentukan kenaikan jabatan karyawan di PT. Indah Logistik Internasional. Penelitian ini menggunakan tiga metode sistem pendukung keputusan yaitu AHP (Analytical Hierarchy Process), metode gabungan AHP-TOPSIS (Technique for Others Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution) dan metode gabungan AHP-SAW (Simple Additive Weighting). Penelitian dilakukan berdasarkan delapan kriteria dimana masing-masing kriteria memiliki tingkat kepentingannya masing-masing. Metode AHP digunakan untuk pembobotan masing-masing kriteria. Metode gabungan AHP-TOPSIS dan AHP-SAW digunakan untuk menentukan peringkat seluruh karyawan yang telah dievaluasi terhadap masing-masing kriteria yang ada. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian, kedua metode menghasilkan lima karyawan yang berhak naik jabatan dengan peringkat yang sama. Metode AHP-SAW lebih baik digunakan dalam penentuan kenaikan jabatan karyawan pada PT. Indah Logistik Internasional karena metodenya yang mudah dipelajari dan proses hitungannya lebih sederhana., Promotion is a reward given to the employees as their work performance and service to the country or company, as well as an encouragement to them for further improvement of their work performance and service. In determining an employee's promotion, one needs a decision support system to get the result as it is expected. This study aims to apply a decision support system’s method to determine employee’s promotion at PT. Indah Logistik International. This study uses three methods of decision support systems, namely AHP (Analytical Hierarchy Process), the combined method of AHP-TOPSIS (Technique for Others Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution) and the combined method of AHP-SAW (Simple Additive Weighting). The study is conducted based on eight criteria in which each criteria has its own level of importance. The AHP method is used for the weighting of each criteria. The combined method of AHP-TOPSIS and AHP-SAW is employed to rank all employees who have been evaluated against each existing criteria. Based on the result of this study, both methods determine five employees to be rewarded a promotion. The AHP-SAW method is better in determining the promotion of employees at PT. Indah Logistik Internasional because the method is easy to learn and the calculation process is more simple.

Judul: Thermal Characteristics and Dynamics of Tropical Cyclone over Western North Pacific Ocean: A Case Study of Typhoon Songda (Chedeng) 2011
Abstrak: The frequent occasion of Tropical Cyclone (TC) over Western North Pacific (WNP) Ocean lies from 10˚N to 26˚N and 121˚E to 170˚E. Sources of TC development come from warm ocean temperature where latent heat is released during condensation processes and subsequently concentrated in the boundary layer. Relative humidity at 850-700 hPa is responsible to produce the most intense storm. Meanwhile, weak vertical wind shear between 850-200 hPa is one of the dynamical factors that lead to the development of TC. Pressure level of 850-200 hPa is chosen to minimize the thermodynamic effect in the lower troposphere. Typhoon Songda (Chedeng in the Philippines) or TSC lasted from May 18th to 30th, 2011 and strengthened into powerful Super Typhoon stage between May 24th and 27th. Long curving track and the exhibition of all sequences of TC life cycle, TSC is then considered as an ideal case of TC. The objective of the study with case of TSC is to investigate the role of thermal characteristics and dynamics on TC intensity. The research is carried out by using Advanced Research of Weather Research and Forecasting model (WRF ARW model) version 3.3. Two domains are employed in the model. The first domain situate from 02˚N to 40˚N and 118˚E to 149˚E and cover spatial resolution () of 33.1 km. The second domain situate from 09˚N to 27˚N and 119˚E to 132˚E with of 11 km. Timestep of the model () is 120 seconds. The model is supported by the following physical parameterization, i.e., Yonsei University Scheme (YSU) in the boundary layer, Kain-Fritsch scheme (KF) in the cumulus, and WRF Single-Moment 3-class scheme in the microphysics. Initial meteorological condition prior to the formation of the cyclone is generated using WRF ARW standard-release model. Sensitivity of the model output is obtained from a selected single-parameter change scenarios, namely, 10 % to 20 % decrease and increase of wind shear initial data at 850-200 hPa, and by 10 % to 20 % decrease of relative humidity initial data at 850-700 hPa. The result showed that the negative correlations between wind shear and intensity are found in wind shear scenarios. Wind shears of 10 ms-1 which lead to strengthening of the wind intensity in the early period of Typhoon development are found in wind shear scenarios. The effect of wind shear changes on wind intensity is statistically significant in the 20 % wind shear scenarios. During mature stage, weak wind intensity occurred when wind shear increase as given in the WRF standard-release and the 20 % decreasing scenario. Different situation is found in the 20 % increasing scenario where wind shear tend to weak and lead to strong wind intensity at this stage. Meanwhile, the reduction of moisture supply at 850-700 hPa resulting from 20 % decreasing relative humidity play a major role in the weakening of wind intensity and reduces mechanical energy of the cycle process as much as 300 J kg-1.
