Judul: Rancang Bangun Sistem Informasi Kepegawaian pada Dinas Pertanian Kota Bogor
Abstrak: Bogor city government through Bogor city human resources board (BKPP) has utilized information technology in employee management through Human Resources Information System (SIMPEG). However, the current SIMPEG have not been able to meet information needs of staffing managers of Bogor City Department of Agriculture. To meet the needs of such information, it is then designed SIMPEG within the Department of Agriculture. The design method uses the system development life cycle (SDLC) with object oriented approach to analysis and design (OOAD). The modeling uses the unified modeling language (UML), while the implementation phase uses the model-view-controller (MVC) approach and component-based construction to accelerate the process of writing the program code.

Judul: Rancang Bangun Sistem Informasi Status Ketersediaan Alat dan Mesin Pertanian di Kabupaten Bogor, Jawa Barat Berbasis Internet.
Abstrak: Kabupaten Bogor merupakan daerah satelit bagi kota Jakarta, kondisi ini mengakibatkan banyak lahan pertanian khususnya padi sawah, yang beralih fungsi menjadi kawasan pemukiman penduduk dan industri. Selain berkurangnya luas lahan-lahan pertanian, banyak pula sumber daya manusia di bidang pertanian yang memilih untuk pindah ke kota serta beralih profesi. Hal-hal tersebut tentunya akan menjadi hambatan dalam usaha peningkatan produksi pangan khususnya beras di Kabupaten Bogor, dimana permintaan beras semakin tinggi seiring meningkatnya jumlah penduduk. Untuk mengatasi permasalahan-permasalahan tersebut salah satunya dengan cara menerapkan mekanisasi pertanian.. Penerapan mekanisasi pertanian di Kabupaten Bogor perlu diimbangi dengan adanya ketersediaan data maupun informasi yang mendukungnya sehingga dapat dihasilkan kebijakan yang sesuai dengan kebutuhan dan kondisi tiap-tiap wilayah pada waktu tertentu. Namun selama ini seringkali data maupun informasi mengenai keberadaan dan persebaran alat dan mesin pertanian sulit dicari dan isinya kurang aktual sehingga penggunaanya belum maksimal bagi pengembangan mekanisasi pertanian di Kabupaten Bogor. Pada penelitian ini dihasilkan sistem informasi yang bernama Sistem Informasi Status Ketersediaan Alat dan Mesin Pertanian di Kabupaten Bogor, Jawa Barat. Secara umum sistem informasi ini diharapkan dapat membantu memberikan informasi penyebaran alat dan mesin pertanian yang terkait pada proses produksi beras, mulai dari prapanen hingga pascapanen. Selain itu sistem informasi ini juga diharapkan mampu memberikan informasi mengenai kebutuhan alat dan mesin pertanian tersebut pada tiap-tiap kecamatan di Kabupaten Bogor. Metode yang digunakan dalam pengembangkan Sistem Informasi Status Ketersediaan Alat dan Mesin Pertanian di Kabupaten Bogor, Jawa Barat adalah metodologi System Development Life Cycle (SDLC). Metodologi ini terdiri lima tahap, yaitu investigasi sistem, analisis sistem, desain sistem, implementasi sistem serta perawatan sistem. Sistem Informasi Status Ketersediaan Alat dan Mesin Pertanian di Kabupaten Bogor yang telah dibangun adalah sistem berbasis web dan dapat berjalan pada berbagai platform sistem operasi diantaranya yaitu Windows™ dan Linux yang telah diinstal web server. Sistem ini terdiri dari dua buah basisdata, yaitu basisdata spasial dan non-spasil. Selain itu sistem ini juga dilengkapi dengan aplikasi Web GIS dalam bentuk peta interaktif, agar informasi mudah dipahami oleh pengguna (user). Sistem dibangun dengan mengunakan konsep CMS yang memungkinkan pengelolaan sistem dapat dilakukan oleh banyak pengguna (user), sehingga menjamin keterkinian data dan informasi. Dalam pengelolaan sistem pengguna diberikan hak akses berbeda-beda, sesuai dengan level aksesnya. Level akses dibedakan menjadi 4 yaitu super administrator, administrator, admin uptd dan admin kecamatan.

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.
