Factores socioeconómicos explicativos en la decisión de reforestar: experiencia en poblaciones de La Sepultura, Chiapas
Authors: Caballero Salinas Juan Carlos , Valencia López Leonardo Daniel , Aguirre Moreno Vicente Javier , Pizaña Vidal Hugo Adrián
Published: September 2022

Este artículo tiene el objetivo de examinar los factores socioeconómicos que incidieron en los habitantes de un área natural protegida en Chiapas, México, para que adoptaran prácticas de reforestación en el marco de un proyecto interinstitucional que impulsó la restauración de sus predios forestales afectados por el huracán Bárbara en el año 2013. Con la información recopilada en el trabajo de campo entre 2014 y 2016, a través de observación directa y datos de 51 encuestas, se realizó un análisis cualitativo y estadístico con el apoyo de un modelo Logit. Los resultados muestran que la disposición de las personas a reforestar disminuye a medida que la ganadería representa su principal ocupación. Además, se revela que la población más proclive a reforestar es aquella que tiene mayor participación en actividades forestales, que es motivada por factores intrínsecos y reside de manera permanente en el lugar. Se concluye que los aspectos socioeconómicos ligados a las actividades productivas locales son factores que inciden en la decisión a reforestar.

360-Degree Films for Cognitive Inclusion at Workplaces
Authors: Eftring Håkan , Kjellstrand Sara
Published: September 2022

Persons with stress-related disorders, mental disorders and neuropsychiatric disabilities are in particular vulnerable to cognitive challenges at the workplace. The barriers faced by persons with communicative, social and cognitive disabilities are most often invisible to persons in the environment. The objective of the study presented in this paper is to develop and test a tool that increases awareness by inviting persons without disabilities to experience how cognitive barriers can look like in the workplace. Three 360-degree films were developed iteratively in close collaboration with users. Each film has one part highlighting difficulties and one part highlighting solutions. The films were evaluated with employers, employment experts, special support persons, HR staff and students. The results show that the films were realistic and useful for both supporting employment and for general awareness and insight.
Systemic Approach to Universal Design of Urban Spaces – Case Study of Trbovlje, Slovenia
Authors: Lavtižar Kristijan , Grom Janez , Zajc Neli , Fikfak Alenka
Published: September 2022

The study consisted of examining universal design principles and applying selected interventions with the goal of solving accessibility issues in the settlement of Trbovlje. As a result of the investigative process and the layered spatial data concerning universal design theory, it was possible to propose the dynamics for the implementation of the design solutions. Deliberate selection of only specific universal design features as a pragmatic decision is what ensures the proposed solution’s real-world application value. Subdividing a wholistic design into temporal phases secures a more feasible and pragmatic approach to reach the end goal while still preserving the full functionality of each individual phase immediately and thus its effectiveness. Such a systemic approach is proposed as a way of creating a more focused overview of the settlement, making a better design for the solution of specific issues, assessing these solutions, and implementing them in selected places. This approach and thinking present itself as a good method of granting universal accessibility that could be adopted as a mandatory part of any urban plan.
«Progetto di Vita» and Universal Design for Persons with Disabilities
Authors: Perego Cristiana , Oberti Ilaria , Pavesi Angela Silvia
Published: September 2022

«Progetto di Vita» (“PdV” Life Project) represents the crucial element to design and build the Quality of Life of persons with disabilities, in coherence with the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. In Italy, Law no. 112/16 identifies in the PdV the principle around which to build a convergence of intents and interests for the realisation of the «Dopo di Noi» (After Us) that can take place «durante Noi» (during Us) through the construction of empowerment paths towards autonomy in a perspective of prevention, gradualness, emancipation and accompaniment to detachment. In order to experience autonomy «durante Noi», preparing for the «Dopo di Noi», the living space, the surrounding environment and the community of reference represent fundamental functional and/or spatial environments. The aim of this article is to map and analyse the good practices that have emerged from the concrete application of the Law through the activation of housing welfare projects that represent innovative forms of living built around the PdV approach.
Rethinking Play Environments for Social Inclusion in Our Communities
Authors: Dalpra Michela
Published: September 2022

“Make cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable” is one of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals of the 2030 Agenda approved by the UN General Assembly. This means that every Country must commit to facing the challenge of increasingly welcoming and barrier-free cities, providing “universal access to safe, inclusive and accessible, green and public spaces, in particular for women and children, older persons and persons with disabilities”. The mission of inclusive play is to create accessible and sensory-rich play environments that meet the widest range of users and abilities offering several and stimulating play opportunities in the same setting. In many playgrounds of our cities, for persons with disabilities, accessing, moving and making play experiences is not easy, in some cases it is not possible. The paper presents the results of a study carried out in order to investigate the inclusiveness of outdoor playgrounds and introduces the need of new perspectives towards a new and innovative view of inclusive playgrounds. The development process of the checklist for assessing the inclusiveness of outdoor playgrounds involved four steps. Step 1: Definition of the main concepts of investigation and generation of the items on the basis of the relevant literature and best practices. Step 2: Scaling and scoring. Step 3: Pilot test to verify the real applicability of the checklist. Step 4: Design of the final checklist. The final checklist was applied to a sample of playgrounds belonging to an Italian urban area selected as a case study in order to make a picture of the state of the art of the playgrounds built in recent years. After the checklist application, the processing of the collected data shows that there is still much to be done to make urban play areas fully accessible and usable by all. Physical accessibility (not always guaranteed) to the play area and to the play components is not enough. Currently there are few playgrounds that ensure inclusive experiences by offering a wide range of equipment with different game values and levels of challenge and services that can be used by everyone. Inclusive playgrounds in our communities are still a small percentage compared to all existing play environments, although there is a greater attention to the theme from year to year. The importance of inclusive playgrounds is recognized by everyone at a theoretical level, but in practice it is still necessary to promote, implement and verify the culture of accessibility and inclusive play. If we want inclusive cities, it is necessary to find skills and resources as well as effective operational tools to map the critical issues of existing playgrounds and to implement restyling interventions or new projects of successful and comprehensive inclusive play environments.
A “Best Practice” for Inclusive Art Cities: The Case Study of the I-Access Project
Authors: Accardi Aldo R.D. , Prescia Renata
Published: September 2022

The essay aims to illustrate the results of the I-Access Interreg Italia-Malta 2016–20 project, carried out by a partnership led by the Department of Architecture of the University of Palermo with the scientific coordination of Renata Prescia. The project involved the Vucciria district in Palermo and the Bijcceria district in Valletta. Within the framework of the products created (database, web platform, mobile apps, protocol, etc.), we would like to explain in this paper the measures taken to facilitate physical and cultural accessibility from the integrated point of view of restoration and exhibition design, that is, in particular measures to overcome architectural barriers, measures for cultural dissemination and measures of a museographic-communicative nature, including re-evocations of lost or dislocated monuments and artistic works. The proposal is designed as a method for historic urban areas that have similar problems to the district under study. The Vucciria, for example, despite its high density of monuments, has a low quality of life because many of its monuments, especially churches, are closed and therefore unusable and because there is little motivation for local people to engage with these monuments, partly because it is an evolving community. The proposal, therefore, provides for concrete actions to restore the memory of the inhabitants and to re-establish an identity bond with the context, with concrete implications for attracting widespread tourism to provide opportunities for renewal for the district. Project proposals included the installation of three urban totems, ten tactile maps associated with as many churches, and the design of two new access ramps to two churches. By being realized as smart additions in a contemporary and stimulating way compared to the interventions characterized by a solipsistic retour au passè and previously carried out in accordance with the philosophy of the current urban plan, they also become an educational opportunity for a dialoguing community.

The Accessibility of Cultural Heritage. A New Perspective Between Relational Gaze and the Philosophy of Gesture
Authors: Ferrucci Fabio
Published: September 2022

The Italian museum system made significant progress in terms of accessibility. Despite the considerable increase in the number of people with functional limitations who visit museums, the percentage of those who do not visit museums is still very high, whatever the presence of limitations. Based on this empirical evidence, a new approach to the problem of accessibility becomes necessary. The paper argues in favor of a performative conception of accessibility. More specifically, it will be shown how the approach of relational sociology and the philosophy of gesture allow for elaborating a broader notion of accessibility than the prescriptive one that currently inspires most interventions. By redefining accessibility in terms of a social relationship that combines the adaptive dimension with the transmission of meanings, new possibilities emerge to make a museum visit an attractive and engaging experience. This guiding idea started to be implemented through the experimental project Smart Cultural Heritage 4 All realized at the Museo Sannitico of Campobasso (Italy).
Universal Design and Interoperable Digital Platforms Between Conservation and New Fruition Opportunities. The Case Study of Arianna’s Domus in Pompeii
Authors: Picone Renata
Published: September 2022

The paper aims to examine the last results of experimental and interdisciplinary research, started in the archaeological area in Pompeii by the “Federico II” University in 2010, on the enlarged fruition in Pompeii. After Covid-19 pandemic is necessary to rethink the use of the archaeological site considering the need put in place by the health emergency, combining instances of a perception of the archaeological heritage in safety with those of a direct and indirect experience, rationalized and increased thanks to the Universal Design and the use of new interoperable technologies. The increase of knowledge, the survey, and the digitalization of the acquisition processes, by developing optimized methodologies for integrated surveying and modeling for the Heritage Building Information Modeling (H-BIM) and for the archiving and management of data relating to the heritage, facilitate the sharing of cognitive elements starting from new methodologies and processes of knowledge. The searches, in line with the themes of the Universal Design and thanks to an interoperable web-based platform, experiment technological devices for the accessibility in relationship with the changed needs of cultural fruition due to the pandemic. A special focus analyse on how the conscious use of new technologies may be the key to understand the material and immaterial traces of the case study: Arianna’s domus, in the Regio VII, Insula IV.
Towards a More Inclusive Learning Environment: The Importance of Providing Captions That Are Suited to Learners’ Language Proficiency in the UDL Classroom
Authors: Venturini Shamira , Vann Michaela Mae , Pucci Martina , Bencini Giulia M. L.
Published: September 2022

Captions have been found to benefit diverse learners, supporting comprehension, memory for content, vocabulary acquisition, and literacy. Captions may, thus, be one feature of universally designed learning (UDL) environments [1, 4]. The primary aim of this study was to examine whether captions are always useful, or whether their utility depends on individual differences, specifically proficiency in the language of the audio. To study this, we presented non-native speakers of English with an audio-visual recording of an unscripted seminar-style lesson in English retrieved from a University website. We assessed English language proficiency with an objective test. To test comprehension, we administered a ten-item comprehension test on the content of the lecture. Our secondary aim was to compare the effects of different types of captions on viewer comprehension. We, therefore, created three viewing conditions: video with no captions (NC), video with premade captions (downloaded from the university website) (UC) and video with automatically generated captions (AC). Our results showed an overall strong effect of proficiency on lecture comprehension, as expected. Interestingly, we also found that whether captions helped or not depended on proficiency and caption type. The captions provided by the University website benefited our learners only if their English language proficiency was high enough. When their proficiency was lower, however, the captions provided by the university were detrimental and performance was worse than having no captions. For the lower proficiency levels, automatic captions (AC) provided the best advantage. We attribute this finding to pre-existing characteristics of the captions provided by the university website. Taken together, these findings caution institutions with a commitment to UDL against thinking that one type of caption suits all. The study highlights the need for testing captioning systems with diverse learners, under different conditions, to better understand what factors are beneficial for whom and when.
UNIVERCITY. The University as a Metaphor for the City. Processes, Methods, and Tools for Contemporary Design
Authors: Marta Cognigni , Emilio Faroldi , Pilar Vettori Maria
Published: September 2022

The university has always been the highest and noblest form of educational institution. Likewise, the relationship between the university and the urban setting has characterised the debate on the management and development of city policies. Cities and universities have been involved in urban regeneration processes, leading to profound changes. The progressive physical development of anthropised areas has gradually reached and definitively incorporated the oldest universities originally built outside the urban setting. This paper analyses the case of the university institution as a promoter of regeneration, inclusion, and development. We shall consider the close relationship between university, campus, and city, paying close attention to the recent evolution of methods for the planning and design of public spaces. The above is becoming a total social fact, a large field of application in which urban regeneration policies are reflected and in which the design dynamics of a resilient, accessible, inclusive, and sustainable city of the future converge.
The Establishment of Communities of Practice for Electronic Medicines Management
Authors: Lundvoll Warth Line , Dyb Kari
Published: September 2022

Digital medicines management is a high priority in Norwegian e-health strategies. A key challenge is the existence of multiple electronic information sources and systems, which require multi-professional cooperation. Lack of communication, understanding and collaboration between pharmacies, hospitals and community caregivers is also a challenge. Communities of practices (CoPs) have been used to establish arenas for discussing issues challenging the workflow to reach a common agreement on successful work practices for electronic medicines management. The purpose of this paper is to explore: How can we establish communities of practice (CoPs) to gather new knowledge on the facilitators and challenges for electronic medicines management practices in Norway? The results show engagement in establishing the CoPs and a willingness for joint enterprise. The establishment of the CoPs was performed simply based on established forms of collaboration. For CoPs to be effective, established alliances need to be expanded and renewed to form new group dynamics and thus a basis for new knowledge about electronic medicines management.

Published: September 2022

Mobile health applications can help to disseminate educational health interventions and be widely used. However, mobile health applications not carefully developed will likely not be adopted by the intended users. This paper describes the methodology used to develop a mobile health application for teaching critical thinking about health to youth attending youth friendly centres in Rwanda. The app includes the adapted content of a children’s “health choices book”. We adapted the book into audio podcasts to fit the context of young adults. The application was developed following a framework for developing mobile health applications. The framework follows three theories: health belief model, the theory of planned behavior and technology acceptance model. We developed an Android based application which can be freely accessed in the Play store. The content in the app explains the need for critical thinking, the 10 audio podcasts, the support, and chat window where users share their experience of using the app. The app will be piloted in two youth centers in Rwanda.

Published: September 2022

The digital transformation of the UK’s healthcare system necessitates the development of digital capabilities across the workforce. This ranges from basic digital literacy through to advanced skills with data and analytic methods. We present two projects that apply co-design to work with end-users and other stakeholders to produce a digital healthcare technologies capability framework aimed at the wider NHS workforce and a post graduate Clinical Data Science course aimed at bridging the gap between clinicians and the data-centric professions (e.g. analysts, data scientists, informaticians) to aid in digital transformation projects.

Authors: Lamer Antoine , Oubenali Naima , Marcilly Romaric , Fruchart Mathilde , Guinhouya Benjamin
Published: September 2022

Health data science is an emerging discipline that bridges computer science, statistics and health domain knowledge. This consists of taking advantage of the large volume of data, often complex, to extract information to improve decision-making. We have created a Master’s degree in Health Data Science to meet the growing need for data scientists in companies and institutions. The training offers, over two years, courses covering computer science, mathematics and statistics, health and biology. With more than 60 professors and lecturers, a total of 835 hours of classes (not including the mandatory 5 months of internship per year), this curriculum has enrolled a total of 53 students today. The feedback from the students and alumni allowed us identifying new needs in terms of training, which may help us to adapt the program for the coming academic years. In particular, we will offer an additional module covering data management, from the edition of the clinical report form to the implementation of a data warehouse with an ETL process. Git and application lifecycle management will be included in programming courses or multidisciplinary projects.

Authors: Adedeji Taiwo , Targema-Takema Rubie , Griffiths Andrew , Scott Philip
Published: September 2022

The health and social care sector has experienced an optimistic turn in the last decade. There has been substantial growth in recent years due to the COVID-19 pandemic that forced the entire sector to identify digital methods of delivering a better level of care than before the pandemic. This paper used the Theory to Change (ToC) approach to demonstrate how the digital skills development of the health and care workforce can be achieved in specific contexts. The paper offers background on digital technologies used in healthcare and outlines the steps and methods used in developing a ToC map. The impact of the proposed ToC approach provides a measurable and predictable way to onboard the health and social care workforce into digital technologies, providing a more digitally skilled and literate workforce.
Individualising Life Expectancy Is Necessary for Optimal Prescribing
Authors: Rajput Vije Kumar , Dowie Jack , Kaltoft Mette Kjer
Published: September 2022

One possible cause of overprescribing (or insufficient deprescribing) is the failure to explicitly address the individual’s life expectancy (LE). For example, if a LE estimate shows the person has six months to live, this should influence the prescribing of a medication that offers benefits only over a much longer LE. Predicting exactly the number of years a person will live is impossible, but probabilistic forecasting is possible and arguably essential, both for the selection of the optimal intervention and for meeting the ‘reasonable patient’ standard of information about the harms and benefits of alternative options. One side-effect of the COVID-19 pandemic has been to bring mortality into greater prominence, hopefully facilitating its discussion in the clinic as part of the ‘new normal’. This paper outlines the case for introducing LE into prescribing decisions as a way of making more individualised decisions and potentially reducing overprescribing. It concentrates on how the clinical task of arriving at individualised estimates of LE might be tackled, especially in the case of the growing number of older patients with heterogeneous sociodemographic characteristics who are experiencing multiple long term conditions of varying severity and are frequently subject to ‘polypharmacy’.

Der Beitrag geht der Rolle des Staates im Prozess der Integration Chinas in die globalen Finanzbeziehungen nach. Mit Blick auf Währungsbeziehungen, internationale Organisationen sowie den chinesischen Kapitalexport wird analysiert, welchen Zielsetzungen und Strategien der chinesische Staat folgt. Dabei wird nicht nur deutlich, dass sich diese mit der Zeit verschieben – es also zu kurz greift, schlicht von einem starken Staat zu sprechen. Entgegen dem nationalstaatlichen Bias der Staatskapitalismus-Diskussion werden die Strategien auch wesentlich durch internationale Faktoren geprägt: Chinas untergeordnete Position auf dem Weltmarkt, aber auch verschiedene Krisenerfahrungen.
The Use of Simulation in Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography training : A Literature Review
Authors: Khattak Mohammad Fawad
Published: September 2022

BACKGROUND: Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is an advanced endoscopy procedure that has become the gold standard minimally invasive method of diagnosing and treating a vast variety of hepatopancreatobiliary diseases. It is associated with a significantly higher rate and wider range of adverse events compared with standard Upper GI endoscopy, with fewer of these procedures being performed in most centres and with procedure specific equipment and skills that most novice endoscopists will not be familiar with. These issues make training in ERCP challenging.

AIMS: This literature review aims to look at the existing information available in the literature on the use of endoscopy simulators in ERCP training to see whether simulation training has a role in ERCP training, the main benefits and drawbacks of endoscopic simulation training, and how simulation training can be integrated into the learning process for achieving competence in ERCP.

METHOD: Study searches were conducted in the MEDLINE, EMBASE, CENTRAL/Cochrane Library databases, Web of Science, Google Scholar, LILACS and FINDit. Studies assessing simulation training against traditional training or against other methods of simulation were identified for inclusion in this literature review.

Results: Eight studies met the criteria for inclusion in this literature review with five of these being randomised control trials, where the primary outcome was biliary cannulation rates in simulation training against a control group.

CONCLUSION: Simulation training has the potential to make trainees more knowledgeable about the basics of ERCP and help develop the technical skills required to perform ERCP competently as shown by all four RCTs demonstrating that trainees in the simulation group had a statistically higher rate of achieving biliary cannulation against control groups.
Endoscopic simulation training should be embedded in ERCP training programmes to act as an important part of the initial development of skills in a safe environment, where trainees can achieve a satisfactory level of proficiency before performing procedures on patients to limit the risk of adverse events and complications. Further trials are required to assess EMS and ECS against traditional methods of learning.

Investigation of the effect of sucrose substitution with Stevia on the structure, physicochemical and sensory properties of ice cream
Authors: Satar-AlDavdi Khanda Sirwan
Published: September 2022

Abstract:

Consumption of milk and its products is considered as one of the indicators of human societies' development. Ice cream as one of the most popular milk products around the world has many fans but due to its high amount of sucrose has negative effects on health. Stevia, a natural sweetener, was used as a sucrose substitute at 0-100% replacement levels in ice cream formulation. To investigate the treatments produced, physicochemical properties in ice cream including specific gravity, viscosity, melting time of the first drop, melting amount, overrun. The results showed that viscosity decreased by 100% by increasing the amount of stevia replacement. While overrun, Firmness, melting time of the first drop and consequently the melting stability of the samples increased with increasing the percentage of stevia used, Sensory test results showed that there was no significant difference between stevia and control samples except cold sensation and ice crystal. As a general result, stevia sweetener is a suitable substitute for sugar and samples containing 100-75% stevia were identified as desirable treatment.

La estructura social de la vulnerabilidad
Authors: Ortiz Luis , Rojas Sergio , Goetz Kevin
Published: September 2022

La superposición de vulneraciones es un rasgo característico de la población infantil y adolescente, especialmente de las clases sociales desfavorecidas. En ese sentido, los riesgos identificados se centran en el aumento de la pobreza, producto de la suspensión de las actividades económicas y la reducción de los ingresos durante el periodo más estricto del confinamiento. Esto sumió a las familias de las clases sociales desfavorecidas en un terreno de incertidumbre y dificultad para asegurar el sustento alimentario. El riesgo de la fragmentación social, por su parte, fue otro aspecto crucial del análisis, compuesto de dos rasgos: el apoyo institucional del Estado focaliza la asistencia de manera segregada y, muchas veces, bajo criterios clientelistas; en grupos específicos, esto termina desarticulando todo tipo de organización y acción colectiva, restando fuerza a las iniciativas de cooperación local. Por otra parte, la afrenta contra la integridad es un factor gravitante de vulnerabilidad, en el que las niñas y las adolescentes son víctimas estructuralmente, debido a las desigualdades de género. Los tres riesgos sintetizan condiciones de vida asociadas a vulnerabilidades concretas, erigidas sobre el terreno frágil de la pobreza, la precariedad y la exclusión.

La contaminación de los alimentos con hongos del género Aspergillus, representa un problema y amenaza para la seguridad e inocuidad alimentaria, estos microorganismos producen micotoxinas, metabolitos secundarios termoestables que causan intoxicaciones agudas o crónicas, inclusive muertes, en humanos y animales. Puede afectar diversos cultivos en condiciones de campo y almacenamiento, como el maní, que es muy susceptible a la contaminación por Aspergillus. Ante la creciente necesidad de desarrollar alternativas de control de estos patógenos principalmente en el almacenamiento y/o conservación, las búsquedas se han centrado y direccionado al desarrollo de tecnologías efectivas que representen un recurso sustentable y sostenible para el área alimentaria. El uso de aceites esenciales ha presentado resultados alentadores, además de su potencial antifúngico, ya que es una alternativa natural y biodegradable. Se propuso como objetivo de este estudio comparar dos técnicas de inoculación: siembra directa y medio inoculado en el método de tamizaje de actividad antifúngica - difusión en agar - de aceites esenciales de especias y sus principales fitoconstituyentes contra cepas de Aspergillus aisladas de maní. Y a su vez, determinar el efecto antifúngico frente a las cepas de Aspergillus estudiadas. Los aceites esenciales de Cinnamomum zeylanicum (canela), Eugenia caryophyllata (clavo de olor), Origanum vulgare (orégano), y los fitoconstituyentes: carvacrol y eugenol presentaron potencial efecto antifúngico sobre las cepas de Aspergillus flavus y Aspergillus Sección Nigri aislados de maní. Además, considerando que la reproducibilidad y estandarización de las técnicas de los ensayos antifúngicos con productos naturales son cruciales, en este estudio no se observaron diferencias significativas en las técnicas de inoculación ensayadas. Concluimos que los aceites esenciales ensayados son recursos naturales promisorios que requieren investigación adicional para ser aplicados como alternativas en la conservación de alimentos.

To check the specifications of a software, it is necessary to have a test and validation is something that is needed when testing the software. The inappropriateness of the data input process is caused by the validation process that is not optimal, one of the consequences is that the data addition process fails. Therefore, the application can cause harm to the user. Therefore, improving the quality of accurate validation is very necessary. When the testing process finds an error that was not previously known, then the test can be said to be a good test. One of them is the Black Box testing method, in this test the author chose the iEquivalence Partition testing method. Equivalence Partition is a technique used to reduce the number of test cases that exist at the time of testing. Based on the tests that have been carried out, the authors conclude that this software can be used properly, after repairing the errors that have been found. However, this test is not perfect, because it is only done by using a few samples. From the results of this test, it is expected that the application can be used according to user needs.

After the process of making software needs to be done a useful testing stage to ensure that the software (Software) is in accordance with the needs of the user. POS is an application used to make sales transactions. In this study, the test was conducted on four modules: the first is the inventory module, in this module there are features for the manager of goods data, stock of goods, and the price of goods, The second is the purchase module where this feature will manage every transaction of goods purchased to the supplier or manufacturer, the third is the sales module or POS, this feature is designed to manage every sales transaction to the customer or end user, and the last is the report module, where every transaction both sales and purchases and inventory data (items, stock,  the price) will be recorded in detail in it. Each of these modules is arranged thus completing one cycle of business processes. Because of the complexity of the arrangement of logic forming sales transactions, the process of calculating the price of sales and calculating the value of stock goods causes losses for business people who use invalid systems. As for a case in true testing it's when we find a previously undisclosed error. The research phase begins by analyzing each function on the system to be tested, creating a testing scenario for the database structure that has been created, making documentation from the test results and the researcher concludes. From the results of the tests that have been done, it was concluded that this software is worth using.

Identifying the optimal rice establishment option combined with specific fertilizer application can lower the global warming potential (GWP) and greenhouse gases intensity (GHGI) of rice production. In this study, methane (CH4) and nitric oxide (N2O) emissions and rice yields under different fertilizer application methods and two different planting methods, transplanted rice (TPR) and wet bed direct seeded rice (WDSR), was measured. Field experiments using a split plot design and closed chamber-GC method for gas flux measurements were conducted. CH4 and N2O emissions ranged from 1.83-4.68 mg/m2/h and 0.073-0.135 mg/m2/h, respectively. Minimum CH4 and N2O emissions were observed at 48-69 days after seedling (DAS) (tiller stage), while maximum emissions were generally found at 90 DAS or early primordial initiation (EPI) stage. It was found that TPR produced more CH4 and N2O than WDSR across fertilizers methods almost each growth stage throughout the growing period. Regarding GHGs emission factors, CH4 emissions were negatively correlated with soil pH (-0.35*, N=18). At higher soil pH, lower CH4 emissions were found in early growth stages. The N2O emissions did not correlate with soil pH (-0.04 ns, N=18). The highest average CH4 emission was reached in 90 days after seedling and EPI when the soil temperature was maximal at 34.8ºC. The correlation coefficient (r) between CH4 emission and soil temperature was 0.48*, N=18, indicating a positive correlation.
