THE STATE OF THE ART IN ECO-FRIENDLY IOT
Authors: Nanda Ipseeta , De Rajesh
Published: December 2022

Everything in the “smart world” is connected by the Internet of Things (IoT), making its energy consumption a challenging and alluring research topic. The goal of a green IoT is to create a network that uses very little energy. In this paper, we present an overview of green Internet of Things technologies. It also covers the four stages of the green IoT life cycle (design, production, use, and recycling) in detail. Also covered are green IoT technologies like green tags, green sensing networks, and green internet technologies. Research on the Internet of Things in 5G networks and for smart cities is also presented. Finally, some suggestions for further study and some of the remaining difficulties in the field of green IoT are offered. Green Internet of Things, 5G, wireless sensor networks, cloud computing, smart cities, and energy efficiency are some of the terms that can be found in an IoT index.

In most automation, we use ANN or RNN based algorithms. This results well but the prior information is what actions were previously taken by a human, this cannot be the only measure of learning a process we know humans learn everything with experience. And the most appropriate algorithm to learn like a human is Reinforcement Learning
Tymczasowy pełnomocnik szczególny w postępowaniu podatkowym
Authors: Krajewska Aleksandra , Nowak Ireneusz
Published: December 2022

Przedmiot badań: Przedmiotem badań jest instytucja tymczasowego pełnomocnika szczególnego, ustanawianego w postępowaniu podatkowym na zasadach przewidzianych w art. 138l–138n Ordynacji podatkowej (w szczególności zakres i przesłanki jego umocowania, tryb wyznaczania oraz funkcjonowanie tymczasowych pełnomocników szczególnych, będących przedstawicielami zawodów zaufania publicznego w Polsce w latach 2017–2021).

Cel badawczy: Celem badawczym jest ustalenie ratio legis instytucji tymczasowego pełnomocnika szczególnego oraz jego roli i „kompetencji” w postępowaniu podatkowym, jak również ocena funkcjonowania tej instytucji w Polsce w latach 2017–2021, z wykorzystaniem badań empirycznych.

Metoda badawcza: W pracy wykorzystano co do zasady metodę teoretycznoprawną i dogmatycznoprawną (polegające na analizie uregulowań prawnych zawartych w Ordynacji podatkowej, a także komentarzy, monografii, artykułów oraz orzecznictwa sądów administracyjnych). Ponadto, dokonano interpretacji zgromadzonego materiału empirycznego, pozyskanego od organów samorządów zawodowych (doradców podatkowych, adwokatów oraz radców prawnych).

Wyniki: Instytucję tymczasowego pełnomocnika szczególnego, pomimo zaledwie kilku lat funkcjonowania i tymczasowego charakteru, uznać należy za istotną i potrzebną, ponieważ stanowi ona gwarancję należytej reprezentacji osób nieobecnych, co jest przejawem zasady czynnego udziału strony w postępowaniu podatkowym. Liczba zawodowych tymczasowych pełnomocników szczególnych w latach 2017–2021 systematycznie rosła, co należy ocenić pozytywnie. Najliczniejszą grupę w tym zakresie stanowili w badanych latach radcy prawni. Można założyć, że zaobserwowana tendencja wzrostowa zostanie utrzymana.
Profitability, financial liquidity and the sustainable development of manufacturing enterprises in Poland
Authors: Misztal Anna
Published: December 2022

Background: The sustainable development of enterprises means undertaking economic, social, and environmental actions. This development demands certain financial outlays for investments. In this context, maintaining financial liquidity and a high level of profitability is especially significant. These are the two key pillars of assessing the financial condition of enterprises, which stimulate their current process and stable development in the future.

Research purpose: This paper aims to assess the impact of selected financial liquidity and profitability ratios on the sustainable development of the manufacturing enterprises sector in Poland between 2009 and 2019.

Methods: I create models using the OLS estimation methods, vector autoregression (VAR), and seemingly unrelated regression (SUR) to verify the research hypotheses.

Conclusions: The estimation results indicate a statistically significant impact of financial liquidity and profitability on the sustainable development of industrial enterprises. Moreover, the results of the SUR estimation show that both analysed areas have a different impact on all three pillars of the sustainable development of enterprises. Therefore, it must be concluded that maintaining a good financial condition, including liquidity and profitability, is essential for enterprises’ social and environmental investments.1

Regulation and functionality of species-specific alternative splicing has remained enigmatic to the present date. Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase IIβ (CaMKIIβ) is expressed in several splice variants and plays a key role in learning and memory. Here, we identify and characterize several primate-specificCAMK2Bsplice isoforms, which show altered kinetic properties and changes in substrate specificity. Furthermore, we demonstrate that primate-specificCAMK2Balternative splicing is achieved through branch point weakening during evolution. We show that reducing branch point and splice site strengths during evolution globally renders constitutive exons alternative, thus providing novel mechanistic insight intocis-directed species-specific alternative splicing regulation. Using CRISPR/Cas9, we introduce a weaker, human branch point sequence into the mouse genome, resulting in strongly alteredCamk2bsplicing in the brains of mutant mice. We observe a strong impairment of long-term potentiation in CA3-CA1 synapses of mutant mice, thus connecting branch point–controlledCAMK2Balternative splicing with a fundamental function in learning and memory.
A CRITIQUE OF THE PHILOSOPHY OF THE SUBJECT: TOWARDS RELATIONAL INDIVIDUALISM
Authors: KASSAYE Eskendir Sintayehu
Published: December 2022

The bifurcation between holism and individualism is essential to understand the contemporary debate in political theory. In this article I argued that both traditional and modern societies have elements of holism and individualism. I also argued that individualism is not radically opposed to holism because it is impossible to imagine a human society without authority, tradition, and taboos. Moreover, the pre-theoretical norms and values of holist societies have rational foundation within a certain context. Thus, it is possible to imagine an individualist society which is grounded in a holist social ontology. I argued that collectivist and tribal societies are not totally opposed to individual liberty since one of the morally relevant advantages of rationality is to foster cordial relations with others. I argued that Habermas’s intersubjective communicative scheme is appropriate to account for the pre-theoretical norms and values of holist societies.
THE EMBODIED FLUENCY MODEL: UNCANNINESS BETWEEN THE MERE-EXPOSURE EFFECT AND ANGST
Authors: STEVENSON Kevin
Published: December 2022

Human beings can be said to naturally seek familiarity in their environment for survival purposes, and this can explain why the mere-exposure effect, where being merely exposed to external factors in our environment, can increase preference for these factors. Familiarity in this sense can thus be framed as important for affect and preference formation and considered built upon both the subjective process of fluency and the objects of experience being processed. The feeling of uncanniness is often considered the opposite of familiarity, yet within its semantic vicinity. By considering the term ‘uncanny’ as having a double meaning linked to both familiarity and unfamiliarity, however, this paper will show how this ambiguity allows for a semantic relatedness of this concept to process fluency rather than familiarity. This connection will in turn be shown to have ramifications for affect through the proposal of a fourth model of process fluency: The Embodied Fluency Model. Through consideration of Mori’s shinkawan, Freud’s notion of the uncanny, and Heidegger’s connection between uncanniness and Angst, an exploration into conceiving how fluency and uncanniness share attributes that allow for a different view on affect is propounded.
FREE-FALLING DESCENT INTO EPIPHANY OR APOCALYPSE STEPHEN KING – A FAIRY TALE
Authors: COULARDEAU Jacques
Published: December 2022

Stephen King has published more than 70 books, many of them adapted to the cinema and television, some original series with no published scenario, except Storm of the Century in 1999. His reach is a lot wider than plain horror. He systematically mixes the various genres of horror, fantasy, suspense, mystery, science fiction, etc. I will only consider his latest stand-alone novel with no co-author, and not part of a series like Gwendy’s Final Task, also published in 2022, co-authored with Richard Chizmar. I will show the style uses some patterns to build the architecture of the story, in this case, ternary structures at all levels of story and style. This ternary pattern is borrowed from the Bible and many fairy tales collected by the Grimm Brothers. The ending brings up a problem: it locks up the two deep and deeper levels with a concrete slab, thus breaking the ternary topography. Is it meaningful about Stephen King’s fiction, or is it only suspending the situation in order to produce a sequel by reopening the passage under the concrete slab, or when Gogmagog manages to escape the deeper level and to invade the human world? That’s Stephen King’s mystery. His fiction is so popular and has been so much exploited on the various screens that we wonder if this multifarious fiction will survive the author, even with his two sons to promote and prolong the fame of his fiction when it becomes necessary.
SHOULD WE BELIEVE IN MORAL REALISM? ON THE BURDEN OF JUSTIFICATION OF MORAL REALISM IN MORAL DISAGREEMENTS
Authors: ZHANG Shuoning
Published: December 2022

Moral realism and moral relativism are two influential dogmas in moral philosophy. This paper examines relativism’s possible position and the burden of justification of a particular form of realism in the problem of moral disagreement. This paper concludes that neither position is morally acceptable, and this paper further offers a hint to a middle way: moral pragmatism.
AN INTERPRETATION OF ADAM’S FALL IN THE LIGHT OF FAR EASTERN PSYCHOLOGY
Authors: JHUNJHUNWALA Bharat
Published: December 2022

One must not pursue a concordism or discordism of theology and science but their dialogue towards creating a mutual understanding. We make an effort in this direction by reinterpreting certain Hebrew words in the narrative of Adam; and by brining insights from far eastern psychology into play. The conventional understanding is that the creation of Adam from “dust” was the beginning of “spiritual mortality.” However, Adam transgressed and did not follow spiritual morality. We rely on the far eastern narrative of creation and propose that “dust” may refer to the implanting of negative qualities by God to break the primitive bliss and take the first steps to “draw all people to myself” (John 12:32). The conventional understanding is that God prohibited Adam and Eve from eating of the Tree of Knowledge. We note that God had placed the Tree in the middle of the Garden. We suggest that God did this so that Adam would see and partake of it. Also, Adam had not eaten of the Tree till the alleged prohibition was pronounced. There was no occasion to prohibit him from doing what he was not doing anyways. We propose that God wanted them to eat of the Tree. Their error was in making delay in eating of it and then of trying to devour the Tree. The conventional understanding is that the speaking serpent is correlated with near eastern depiction of serpents as adversaries. The role of the serpent, however, was also positive since it led Adam and Eve to eat of the Tree and to the opening of their eyes. We propose that the serpent was the far eastern symbolism of the unconscious impulses emanating from one’s own spinal cord. We find that these interpretations make the Biblical narrative sync with science and also give it a positive ambience. These interpretations are consistent with the majesty of Jesus Christ in helping establish a conscious connection between man and God. The process by which these far eastern narratives may have entered the Bible require further investigations

Published: December 2022

Children` participation to education is an important concern for the entire educational system, for policy makers, but also for organizations, institutions, employers, etc. interested in what is happening in education, without necessarily being part of this system. With the intention of contributing to promptly identify students in early school leaving situation and to operatively intervene, extensive research was launched within the Erasmus+ Project “Active Cross-sectoral Cooperation for Educational and Social Success” (A.C.C.E.S.S.), having as target-group teachers and students from the four partner countries - Italy, Portugal, Lithuania and Romania. The research circumscribed a quantitative approach, consisting in the development and administration of two questionnaires - one addressed to teachers and the other addressed to students and to those who leave the school early, and a qualitative approach, conducted by the method of interview-based survey, in the case of students and by organizing focus groups with teachers. One of the aspects with a strong impact on the motivation and involvement / engagement of students in the educational process and, implicitly, on the management of the ESL phenomenon is represented by the representations / beliefs of the school managers / teachers / students. That is why part of our research has focused on investigating teachers' perceptions on these beliefs and representations

Published: December 2022

As inclusões citoplasmáticas azul-esverdeadas em neutrófilos são conhecidas na literatura médica como “cristais verdes da morte” uma vez que, apesar de raras, indicam um prognóstico desfavorável e o paciente progride rapidamente para o óbito, especialmente quando associadas a outros indícios laboratoriais de injúria hepática aguda e fulminante. Até o presente momento não há relatos de tais inclusões na literatura veterinária. Os objetivos desse relato são descrever, pela primeira vez, as inclusões em neutrófilos de um cão que veio a óbito dois dias após a observação desse achado e alertar sobre a importância da identificação de tais inclusões na hematologia veterinária. Uma cadela, sem raça definida, de aproximadamente 10 anos de idade, foi atendida no Hospital Veterinário da Universidade Federal do Paraná - UFPR/Curitiba-PR após ser resgatada da rua, vítima de atropelamento e permaneceu internada durante oito dias até sua morte. Durante o período de internação foi notado piora progressiva do quadro clínico e laboratorial. Foi observada, durante a avaliação morfológica do esfregaço sanguíneo, a presença de inclusões azul-esverdeadas no citoplasma de neutrófilos. Houve aumento significativo das enzimas hepáticas de extravasamento (alanina aminotransferase - ALT e aspartato aminotransferase - AST) e de colestase (fosfatase alcalina - FA e gama glutamil transferase - GGT), assim como do lactato sérico, contribuindo à rápida piora do quadro clínico do animal, o que sugere que o achado dessas inclusões pode ser marcador de péssimo prognóstico e está associado à insuficiência hepática fulminante.

Published: December 2022

A ovariohisterectomia (OH) pode ser definida como o procedimento cirúrgico no qual os ovários e útero são removidos. Apesar da OH ser um procedimento frequentemente realizado, existem intercorrências que podem acontecer em consequência de imprecisões na técnica cirúrgica ou na escolha do material para cirurgia. Logo, objetivou-se descrever o caso de uma cadela que apresentou complicações dois anos após uma OH eletiva na qual se utilizou fios de algodão para confecção das ligaduras vasculares. Em uma clínica veterinária de Recife, Pernambuco, foi atendida uma cadela apresentando incontinência urinária e dor abdominal. Após avaliação clínica e realização dos exames complementares (hemograma, bioquímico, ultrassonografia abdominal, eletrocardiograma, ecocardiograma e tomografia computadorizada), suspeitou-se de granuloma inflamatório que poderia ser decorrente do uso de material de sutura inadequado durante a cirurgia. Nessa perspectiva, foi realizada uma celiotomia exploratória, a fim de remover os granulomas que apresentavam aderências no omento, intestino e ureter. Conclui-se que a utilização do fio de algodão estimulou a formação de granulomas necessitando de novo procedimento cirúrgico para removê-los. Diante do exposto, desaconselha-se o uso do referido material em cirurgia.
Antioxidant potential of Moringa stenopetala leaf extract on laagered beer stored at
room temperature
Authors: Gedefaw M.Y. , Engeda D.A. , Tilku D.M.
Published: December 2022

Controlling beer oxidation using natural antioxidants for better shelf-life stability is
the prominent objective of modern breweries. Flavour instability resulting from beer
storage and oxidations are the most important quality problems in the brewing
industry. This study evaluated the influence of the addition of 80% ethanol leaf
extract of Moringa stenopetala to lager beer at 400, 600 and 800 ppm concentrations
for 30-, 60- and 90-days storage at room temperature. The total phenolic and total
flavonoid contents were determined by Folin-Ciocalteu and aluminium chloride
method respectively. Antioxidant activity of each treatment was evaluated and
compared by using 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging
activity and total antioxidant using phosphomolybdate assay. The addition of the
extract in beer showed a linear increment in the total phenolic content from 46.79 up
to 88.30 milligrams of gallic acid equivalent per litre of beer (mg GAE/L) and total
flavonoid contents from 123.36 up to 167.09 mg of catechin equivalent per litre of
beer (mg CE/L). A similar increment was observed within the DPPH scavenging
potential, from 46.55up to 67.16% and total antioxidant power from 139.12 up to
216.67 milligrams of butylated hydroxytoluene equivalent per litre of beer (mg
BHTE/L). The result indicates a promising use of leaf extract of M. stenopetala as a
functional ingredient in beer to reduce beer oxidation probability and keep its
freshness for a period of storage time.
Effect of additional carrageenan concentration on the characteristics of wet
noodles based on mangrove fruit flour variation
Authors: Sumartini  , Putri W.R.
Published: December 2022

In general, wet noodles are made from tapioca flour, but the weakness of noodles made
from tapioca flour is the lack of nutrients, high carbohydrate content, low protein content,
low vitamin content and high gluten content. Making wet noodles with the fortification of
mangrove fruits flour and carrageenan is expected to produce wet noodles with physical,
chemical, and nutritional characteristics. The method used in this study was an experiment
with a factorial randomized block design (RBD). The test was carried out with three
replications (triple) with two test parameters, the concentration of carrageenan flour (8%,
12%, 15%) and three mangrove fruit species, namely, Avicennia marina, Bruguierra
gymnorrhiza, and Sonneratia caseolaris. Based on the results, the addition of various
concentrations of carrageenan flour in wet noodles and using different types of mangrove
fruit flour gave significantly different effects (P<0.05) on several test parameters, namely
proximate test, crude fibre content, antioxidant activity, water absorption, cooking time,
power dropping of noodles, cooking loss, and sensory testing. The addition of carrageenan
flour affected the physical and sensory properties of mangrove flour noodles. In addition,
different types of mangrove fruit flour affect the increasing nutritional characteristics and
antioxidant activity of wet noodles.
Drying edible jellyfish (Lobonema smithii) using a parabolic greenhouse solar
dryer
Authors: Maisont S. , Samutsri W. , Sansomboon A. , Limsuwan P.
Published: December 2022

Thailand is one of Southeast Asia’s top exporters of salted edible jellyfish. Jellyfish
products are generally exported in the form of semi-dried jellyfish. A recent survey on
jellyfish distribution in coastal areas in the Gulf of Thailand and the Andaman Sea
indicated that most edible jellyfish in the area belong to Lobonema smithii and Rhopilema
hispidum. Drying is an alternative method to preserve food products. In this work,
parabolic roof shape greenhouse solar drying of edible jellyfish (Lobonema smithii) was
studied, and the quality of the dried jellyfish was assessed. The solar dryer system has a
300 kg loading capacity for jellyfish and the resulting dried and rehydrated jellyfish
products are described. The moisture content of dried jellyfish decreased to 7.05-11.70%
(wb) from 91-92% (wb) after drying for three days and the protein, fat, crude fibre, ash,
and carbohydrate content of the dried jellyfish were 68.68%, 0.74%, 0.43%, 9.27%, and
4.67%, respectively. The moisture of the rehydrated jellyfish increased to 37.67-39.07%
(wb) after soaking in distilled water for 5 hrs. In terms of colour, the rehydrated jellyfish
products were found to be highly similar to salted jellyfish products.

Authors: Khusmawardani Eli , Muntholib Muntholib , Yahmin Yahmin
Published: December 2022

This study aimed to explore whether Explicit Scientific Inquiry Instruction (ESII) Hybrid Mode in the context of Socioscientific Issues could improve the students' critical thinking skills. The research design was a one group pretest-posttest design. The research sample was 31 science eleventh graders at SMA Mojosari for the academic year 2021/2022. The data was collected using a critical thinking skills test on Chemical Kinetics which consists of 27 valid questions with a Cronbach Alpha reliability of 0.756. A paired-samples t-test showed that the Explicit Scientific Inquiry Instruction (ESII) Hybrid Mode in the Socioscientific Issues context improved students’ critical thinking skills (p = 0.00 < 0.05). The improvement was strong as its N-gain score was 0.58 (upper–medium category) and d-effect size was 1.40 (much larger than typical category). This shows that statistically ESII hybrid mode in the context of SSI can improve students' critical thinking skills. Therefore, this strategy can improve students' critical thinking skills in the instruction that allows students to interpret, analyze, explain, evaluate, and draw conclusions
HOW WORTHY IS DALTON’S PURSUIT OF CHEMICAL ATOMISM FOR THE PROSPECTIVE TEACHERS? A CASE OF KOTEBE UNIVERSITY OF EDUCATION, ETHIOPIA
Authors: Lemma Abayneh , Belachew Woldie
Published: December 2022

Atom possesses controversial ontological accounts even in a single discipline such as chemistry. Its essence as a reality and inclusion in science education has been subjected to numerous philosophical and scientific debates. The educational literature also shows that the ancient corpuscular notion is dominantly portrayed within the curriculum and instruction of many educational settings. The fundamental problem is that the chemists, educators, philosophers, and historians of chemistry themselves haven’t had a substantial agreement on any of the philosophical and scientific accounts due to their longstanding philosophical divide between the different positions of positivism and realism. Neither has the historical perspective of philosophy and science been reasonably acknowledged in science/chemistry education. We aimed in this interpretative case study to figure out how much Dalton’s pursuit of the chemical atomism is worth to 22 purposely selected and interviewed prospective teachers. The resulting transcripts were analyzed using HPS, the seven milestones of its case study. As a result, one major and two minor themes were found none of which match any of the themes of the milestones. Moreover, the entire narrative lacks some essential perspectives and contexts of HPS in general and Dalton’s experimentations in particular. Misjudgment of his indivisibility notion, for example, is a drawback associated with this limitation. Thus, more inquiries are needed to be conducted in the long run into the curriculum and classroom practice while departmental discussions on such issues are suggested in the short run.

Changes in the pattern of human life through electronic digital media are the impact of very rapid technological developments, one of which is the change in patterns from paper to paperless. At the same time as the COVID-19 pandemic, which affected policies in most areas of employment and education, this was done online, so electronic documents were often used in every process in these fields. As in the case of administrative correspondence or other document exchange transactions. And the authenticity of the document is needed by using a mechanism, one of which is a digital signature. Digital signatures can assist in the process of maintaining the confidentiality, authentication, disclaimer, integrity and validity that signatures in a document have been sent and received. By utilizing the Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA) digital signature algorithm for encryption and decryption processes to improve data security and authentication. The final representation of the digital signature is applied to the correspondence document with PDF type, using the Python ECDSA programming language as the system running process.

Corona Virus Desease merupakan penyakit yang memiliki resiko penularan sangat tinggi sehingga mengakibatkan pandemi di seluruh dunia. Berbagai metode pencegahan dilakukan untuk menekan bertambahnya jumlah kasus akibat virus ini. Berbagai metode digunakan untuk mencegah penyebaran virus COVID-19, salah satunya dengan melakukan deteksi awal pada orang yang terindikasi mengalami gejala-gejala terpapar virus COVID-19. Alternatif lain yang bisa dipertimbangkan untuk mendeteksi COVID-19 pada pasien, yaitu menggunakan pendekatan deep learning dengan pencitraan CT dan X-Ray. Metode deep learning yang digunakan yaitu Convolutional Neural Network. Namun permasalahan yang sering dihadapi saat menggunakan CNN adalah kurang efisiennya nilai parameter yang digunakan pada setiap filter atau layer. Sehingga hasil yang didapatkan kurang optimal baik dari nilai akurasi maupun efisiensi dari model CNN. Proses optimisasi menjadi salah satu solusi yaitu dengan menerapkan algoritma Random Search untuk mencari kombinasi dari keempat nilai hyperparameter model CNN. Keempat hyperparameter tersebut terdiri dari convolutional layer, kernel size, fully connected layer, dan learning rate. Hasil perhitungan menunjukkan bahwa setelah dilakukan optimisasi menggunakan Random Search selama kurang lebih 65 menit didapatkan 50 model terbaik dengan nilai akurasi terbesar yaitu 95.38% dan akurasi terendah yaitu 88%.

Saat ini perkembangan teknologi server semakin pesat, perkembangan ini disertai dengan banyaknya aplikasi web yang dikelola. Teknologi virtualisasi merupakan solusi dari independensi aplikasi. Peningkatan jumlah aplikasi web harus diikuti dengan peningkatan kebutuhan resource. Virtualisasi docker container menjadi trend saat ini. Docker adalah salah satu software yang menggunakan virtualisasi OS untuk menyimpan perangkat lunak ke dalam sebuah container. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk menganalisis perbandingan kebutuhan resource dan independensi terhadap teknologi single server, virtualisasi dan container. Metode yang digunakan untuk menganalisis perbandingan dengan mengelola banyak aplikasi apache web server. Hasil dari pengujian penggunaan memori, container membutuhkan memori sebesar 521 MB, single server membutuhkan memori sebesar 1330 MB dan virtualisasi membutuhkan memori sebesar 2475 MB. Hasil pengujian penggunaan CPU container membutuhkan CPU 1.85%, single server membutuhkan CPU 2.74% dan virtualisasi membutuhkan CPU 4.95%. Penggunaan memori dan CPU pada docker container lebih sedikit karena pada setiap virtualisasi server  docker container tidak memuat kernel, melainkan berbagi kernel host dengan container yang lain. Berbeda dengan virtualisasi dan single server yang memiliki kernel sendiri untuk menjalankan aplikasi dalam hal ini menyebabkan kebutuhan resource memori dan CPU container lebih kecil. Container dan virtualisasi memiliki independensi yang terjaga, karena sumber daya dan aplikasi terisolasi secara terpisah, sehingga tidak menggangu konfigurasi aplikasi yang lain.
SIG Penentuan Rute Terdekat Menuju Faskes di Sidoarjo Menggunakan Dynamic Dijkstra

Published: December 2022

Pencarian rute terdekat sangat dibutuhkan untuk menuju Fasilitas Kesehatan. Hal ini karena dibutuhkannya penindakan secepat mungkin untuk menangani pasien agar tidak terjadi hal yang tidak diinginkan. Algoritma Dijkstra merupakan salah satu algoritma yang handal dalam menentukan rute terdekat antara dua titik. Dijkstra dapat digunakan secara langsung dalam penentuan rute dengan menghitung bobot di setiap titik yang terhubung dari titik sumber sampai dengan titik tujuan. Bobot yang digunakan oleh Dijkstra statis bisa berupa jarak antar titik yang terhubung. Namun dalam kondisi nyata terdapat data lalu lintas yang bisa digunakan untuk memberi bobot antar titik agar bisa menentukan rute yang benar-benar sesuai. Oleh karena itu dibutuhkan pengembangan dari algoritma Dijktra statis agar bisa mendeteksi perubahan bobot yang terjadi. Pada penelitian sebelumnya diusulkan algoritma Dynamic Dijkstra yang bertujuan untuk mendinamisasi algoritma Dijkstra statis. Pada metode ini digunakan struktur Data Rektroaktif yaitu Retroactive Priority Queue (Antrian Prioritas Retroaktif), dengan struktur data ini algoritma Dijktra dapat mendeteksi perubahan bobot saat dieksekusi sehingga dapat mengakomodasikan perubahan-perubahan yang terjadi akibat dari perubahan bobot tersebut. Pengujian dilakukan pada aplikasi penunjukkan rute terdekat menuju Faskes di Sidoarjo, hasilnya aplikasi dapat berjalan dengan baik untuk merekomendasikan Faskes terdekat dan menunjukkan rute dari titik sumber (pengguna) menuju Faskes terdekat. Perbandingan akurasi dengan aplikasi lain yang serupa juga dilakukan dengan hasil 85,72 % untuk Google Maps dan 75,9 % untuk Bing Maps.

Citra digital sebagai salah satu format data digital yang digunakan untuk menyimpan gambar atau hasil karya dalam format digital. Namun, ada kemungkinan orang-orang yang tidak berwenang juga bisa melakukan kejahatan atau hal-hal yang tidak diinginkan. Oleh karena itu, dibutuhkan teknik kombinasi menggunakan algoritma simetris Rivest Code 4 (RC4) pada proses enkripsi dan metode Steganografi Least Significant Bit (LSB) pada proses penyisipan pesan untuk menjaga keaslian suatu citra. Algoritma Rivest Code 4 (RC4) adalah algoritma yang memiliki kunci simetris dan mengenkripsi plaintext secara digit per digit atau byte per byte dengan cara mengkombinasikan dengan operasi biner (biasanya XOR) dengan sebuah angka semi acak. Adapun Steganografi Least Significant Bit (LSB) adalah Metode Steganografi pada domain spasial dimana setiap bit yang mempunyai nilai minimum pada file citra diganti dengan urutan biner dari pesan rahasia. Pada penelitian ini,  proses perbandingan dilakukan dengan cara memasukkan data citra dengan format (*JPG, *PNG, *BMP) pada proses enkripsi dan penyisipan pesan kemudian diproses menggunakan 6 variabel (PRNG Password, Convert teks menjadi ciphertext, ciphertext menjadi biner, convert gambar ke RGB, convert RGB ke nilai biner, menyisipkan biner ciphertext ke biner RGB sesuai posisi PRNG) agar dapat direalisasikan kedalam sistem. Adapun hasil pengujian perbandingan yang didapat yaitu semakin banyak karakter teks yang dimasukkan dalam proses encode, maka semakin banyak juga nilai biner yang muncul dan dari ketiga format citra yang diuji. Hasil pengujian juga menunjukkan bahwa tidak merubah kualitas citra (perubahan piksel tidak terlihat) akan tetapi merubah kualitas ukuran  dengan nilai peningkatan 56.2% pada *JPG dan 1% pada *PNG serta penurunan sebesar 33.3% pada *BMP.
