Judul: Pengelolaan komodo (Varanus komodoensis) dan pemanfaatannya sebagai objek wisata di Taman Margasatwa Ragunan
Abstrak: Taman Margasatwa Ragunan (TMR) merupakan salah satu lembaga konservasi dengan pengelolaan berbasis etika dan kesejahteraan satwa TMR juga memiliki fungsi utama sebagai rekreasi dan edukasi bagi pengunjung. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengidentifikasi aspek teknis pengelolaan, perawatan, kesehatan dan reproduksi komodo serta mengidentifikasi pemanfatatan komodo sebagai objek wisata. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah studi pustaka, observasi lapang dan wawancara. Hasil yang diperoleh menunjukkan pengelolaan komodo mencakup empat kegiatan yaitu pengelolaan pakan, perkandangan, kesehatan dan reproduksi. Seluruh aspek pengelolaan sudah sesuai dengan prinsip kesejahteraan satwa. Kandang peraga komodo di TMR dimanfaatkan sebagai objek wisata. TMR memiliki papan informasi tentang komodo dan tour guide bagi pengunjung untuk menambah ilmu pengetahuan pengunjung TMR. Rekomendasi yang diberikan kepada pengelola lebih difokuskan pada pengelolaan pakan, kesehatan dan perbaikan papan informasi untuk pengunjung

Judul: Perilaku Komodo (Varanus komodoensis) di Taman Margasatwa Ragunan
Abstrak: The komodo (Varanus komodoensis) is the world's largest lizard that prone to extinction since they only scattered in some small islands in eastern Indonesia. One preservation effort of the dragons is by breeding them in captivity places, such as Jakarta Ragunan Zoo. Eventhought in the captivity, it does not mean there are no problems faced by the komodo. The main problems are because of differences in the weather and environmental conditions. Therefore, the aim of the research is to conduct behavioral assessments of the komodo preserved in the Ragunan Zoo as the first step to resolve the problems. We used observational method called scan sampling. Observations were conducted in two periods of time, i.e. during the daylight (06.00 am-06.00 pm) and evening (6.00 pm-06.00 am). Observations of the behavior of the komodo included walking, stay still, sun bathing, rubbing body, yawn, drinking, eating, climbing, secreting saliva, craning of the tongue, and running. During the daylight, some of the behaviors were more dominant, i.e. walking, stay still, sun bathing, climbing, secreting saliva, and craning of the tongue. While during the night stay still was dominant.

Judul: Construction of Strongly Optimal Binary Linear Code with Minimum Distance 9 and 11
Abstrak: A binary linear code of length n over q F is a subspace of n q F . A code has three parameters that attached to it, namely length, dimension, and minimum distance. A code with length n, dimension k and minimum distance d is often called [n, k, d ]-code. Usually, when two parameters are given, then we want to find a code that has the best value for the last parameter. Based on Gilbert- Varshamov bound, if a [n, k, d ]-code exists and can not be expanded, we call it a strongly optimal code. In this paper, we construct strongly optimal code with minimum distance 9 and 11. In constructing the code, we created a theorem and algorithm based on Gilbert-Varshamov bound before we implement the algorithm to MAPLE programming language. Because of computational limitations, the program can only construct up to k = 10 for d = 9 and k = 12 for d = 11.
