Mereology with Super-Supplementation Axioms. A Reconstruction of the Unpublished Manuscript of Jan F. Drewnowski
Authors: Świętorzecka Kordula , Łyczak Marcin
Published: October 2019

We present a study of unpublished fragments of Jan F. Drewnowski’s manuscript from the years 1922–1928, which contains his own axiomatics for mereology. The sources are transcribed and two versions of mereology are reconstructed from them. The first one is given by Drewnowski. The second comes from Leśniewski and was known to Drewnowski from Leśniewski’s lectures. Drewnowski’s version is expressed in the language of ontology enriched with the primitive concept of a (proper) part, and its key axiom expresses the so-called weak super-supplementation principle, which was named by Drewnowski “the postulate of the existence of subtractions”. Leśniewski’s axiomatics with the primitive concept of an ingrediens contains the axiom expressing the strong super-supplementation principle. In both systems the collective class of objects from the range of a given non-empty concept is defined as the upper bound of that range. From a historical point of view it is interesting to notice that the presented version of Leśniewski’s axiomatics has not been published yet. The same applies to Drewnowski’s approach. We reconstruct the proof of the equivalence of these two systems. Finally, we discuss questions stemming from their equivalence in frame of elementary mereology formulated in a modern way.

Authors: Maulana Irmawan , Widodo Nuryono Satya
Published: October 2019

Pada Kontes Robot Seni Tari Indonesia (KRSTI), mengharuskan peserta untuk dapat membuat robot yang dapat menari secara otomatis dengan diiringi alunan musik. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah membuat robot humanoid yang dapat menari ketika musik pengiring diputar dan berhenti ketika musik berhenti. Penelitian ini menggunakan IC MSGEQ7 sebagai pengolah musik karena IC ini dapat membaca nilai frekuensi musik secara detail sebanyak tujuh frekuensi yaitu frekuensi 63Hz; 16Hz; 400Hz, 1kHz; 2,5kHz; 6,25kHz; dan 16kHz. Ketujuh frekuensi tersebut dijadikan acuan sebagai isyarat robot untuk bergerak atau berhenti. Penentuan frekuensi sebagai isyarat gerak didapat melalui sampling musik Tari Remo menggunakan perangkat lunak Matlab dengan metode FFT (Fast Fourier Transform). Isyarat gerak tersebut dikirimkan ke sistem robot melalui Modul Bluetooth HC-05. Jika sistem robot mendapat isyarat untuk bergerak maka robot akan menggerakkan servo penggerak menjadi gerakan yang serasi. Hasil yang didapat dari pengujian adalah dapat diketahui frekuensi yang sering muncul pada musik tari remo yaitu pada frekuensi 0-4000Hz. Setelah frekuensi diketahui, implementasi pada robot memperoleh hasil robot dapat menari ketika musik diputar dan robot dapat berhenti ketika musik dihentikan.At the Indonesian Dance Robot Contest (KRSTI), it requires participants to be able to make robots that can dance automatically accompanied by music. The purpose of this study is to create a humanoid robot that can dance when the accompaniment music is playing and stop when the music stops. This study uses IC MSGEQ7 as a music processor because this IC can read music frequency values in detail as many as seven frequencies namely 63Hz frequency; 16Hz; 400Hz, 1kHz; 2.5kHz; 6.25kHz; and 16kHz. The seven frequencies are used as a reference as a robot signal to move or stop. The determination of the frequency as a gesture is obtained through the sampling of Remo Dance music using Matlab software with the FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) method. These motion signals are sent to the robot system via the Bluetooth Module HC-05. If the robot system gets a signal to move, the robot will move the servo drive into a matching movement. The results obtained from testing are the frequency that often appears in Remo dance music, namely the frequency 0-4000Hz. After the frequency is known, the implementation of the robot obtains the results that the robot can dance when the music is playing and the robot can stop when the music is stopped.
Deteksi Zona pada KRSTI dengan Sensor Warna TCS3200
Authors: Bardani Ahmad Imam , Widodo Nuryono Satya
Published: October 2019

Robot seni tari Lanange Jagad untuk lomba Kontes Robot Seni Tari Indonesia (KRSTI) belum mampu membedakan zona warna pada arena yang menyebabkan robot melakukan gerakan tarian yang tidak sesuai dengan tempatnya. Oleh karena itu dibutuhkan kontrol otomatisasi menggunakan sensor warna TCS3200. TCS3200 akan memperoleh komposisi RGB yang tepat menggunakan perhitungan frekuensi. Hasil yang dicapai dalam penelitian ini adalah robot seni tari Lanange Jagad dapat membedakan zona dengan memanfaatkan warna merah, biru, biru muda, hijau, dan putih dengan tingkat keberhasilan 84%. Ketika robot mendeteksi warna yang sudah ditentukan pada setiap zona, robot akan secara otomatis melakukan gerakan tari yang sudah disesuaikan dengan zona tersebut. Saat robot masuk ke zona warna berbeda maka robot akan menghentikan gerakan tari pada zona sebelumnya dan memanggil gerakan tari selanjutnya. Namun masih terdapat banyak noise saat melakukan pengujian sehingga nilai RGB yang digunakan untuk memanggil gerakan tari berubah sehingga robot tidak merespons perintah yang dimasukkan pada program. Nilai RGB yang stabil di dapatkan pada kondisi kaki robot menapak atau bersentuhan langsung dengan zona warna, nilai tersebut yang digunakan untuk pemanggilan gerakan tari.The Lanange Jagad dance robot for the Indonesian Robot Dance Contest (KRSTI) has not been able to distinguish the color zone in the arena that causes the robot to perform dance moves that are not in accordance with its place. Therefore we need automation control using the TCS3200 color sensor. TCS3200 will obtain the right RGB composition using frequency calculations. The results achieved in this study are the Lanange Jagad dance robot can distinguish zones by utilizing red, blue, light blue, green, and white with a success rate of 84%. When the robot detects the colors that have been determined in each zone, the robot will automatically perform dance moves that have been adapted to the zone. When the robot enters a different color zone, the robot will stop the dance movement in the previous zone and call the next dance movement. However, there is still a lot of noise when testing so that the RGB value used to call dance moves changes so that the robot does not respond to commands entered in the program. A stable RGB value is obtained when the robot's foot steps or comes into direct contact with the color zone, the value that is used for calling dance moves.
Suitability of OFDM in 5G Waveform – A Review
Authors: Lavanya Pathuri , Satyanarayana Penke , Ahmad Afaq
Published: October 2019

Systematic pursuits are being developed to set forth the framework for the Fifth Generation (5G) wireless standards. This paper emphases on the most extensively deployed technology - Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) that has outpaced other waveform aspirants for Fourth Generation (4G) communication standards. Irrespective of the beneficial features, it does possess a number of significant limitations that mark it as an incompatible candidate for the upcoming 5G standard. This paper highlights on its major drawback i.e high Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR). Results state that PAPR does cause sudden upsurge to the output signal envelope causing further other damages. There exists a need for more flexible waveforms to replace the conventional OFDM in order to address the unprecedented challenges. The future research directions in the domain are presented.
Architecture Selection in Neural Networks by Statistical and Machine Learning
Authors: Aladag Cagdas Hakan
Published: October 2019

One of the biggest problems in using artificial neural networks is to determine the best architecture. This is a crucial problem since there are no general rules to select the best architecture structure. Selection of the best architecture is to determine how many neurons should be used in the layers of a network. It is a well-known fact that using a proper architecture structure directly affect the performance of the method. Therefore, various approaches ranging from trial and error method to heuristic optimization algorithms have been suggested to solve this problem in the literature. Although there have been systematical approaches in the literature, trial and error method has been widely used in various applications to find a good architecture. This study propose a new architecture selection method based on statistical and machine learning. The proposed method utilizes regression analysis that is a supervised learning technique in machine learning. In this new architecture selection approach, it is aimed to combine statistical and machine learning to reach good architectures which has high performance. The proposed approach brings a new perspective since it is possible to perform statistical hypothesis tests and to statistically evaluate the obtained results when artificial neural networks are used. The best architecture structure can be statistically determined in the proposed approach. In addition to this, the proposed approach provides some important advantages. This is the first study using a statistical method to utilize statistical hypothesis tests in artificial neural networks. Using regression analysis is easy to use so applying the proposed method is also easy. And, the proposed approach saves time since the best architecture is determined by regression analysis. Furthermore, it is possible to make inference for architectures which is not examined. The proposed approach is applied to three real data sets to show the applicability of the approach. The obtained results show that the proposed method gives very satisfactory results for real data sets.
Nanotechnology – Intentionality and Free-Will
Authors: Gopal T. V.
Published: October 2019

Body modification (or body alteration) is the wilful altering of the human body by an individual in a way that lasts forever or for a very long time. This is usually for non-medical reasons that include sexual enhancement, a rite of passage, aesthetic reasons, denoting affiliation, trust and loyalty, religious reasons, shock value, and self-expression. It can range from the socially acceptable decoration (e.g., pierced ears or nose in many societies) to the religiously mandated. Body art is the modification of any part of the human body for artistic or aesthetic reasons. Nanotechnology is currently available to implant biometric devices in human beings, which can be monitored by software, satellites and utilized by Government and Industry. In fact several developers are currently bringing these technologies to the public and private sector at affordable prices. The context of “Technology Consumerism” compounded by Intentionality and Free-Will of its consumer’s results in many unintended consequences outlined in this paper. Geometry of Morphogenesis is the proposed theory for decoding body modification.

The researcher have suggested real time depth based on frequency domain hole filling. It get better quality of depth sequence generated by sensor. This method is capable to produce high feature depth video which can be quite useful in improving the performance of various applications of Microsoft Kinect such as obstacle detection and avoidance, facial tracking, gesture recognition, pose estimation and skeletal. For stereo matching approach images depth extraction is the hybrid (Combination of Morphological Operation) mathematical algorithm. There are few step like color conversion, block matching, guided filtering, minimum disparity assignment design, mathematical perimeter, zero depth assignment, combination of hole filling and permutation of morphological operator and last nonlinear spatial filtering. Our algorithm is produce smooth, reliable, noise less and efficient depth map. The evaluation parameter such as Structure Similarity Index Map (SSIM), Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR) and Mean Square Error (MSE) measure the results for proportional analysis.
Copy Move Image Forgery Detection with Exact Match Block Based Technique
Authors: Arora Priyanka , Singh Derminder
Published: October 2019

Digital images are a momentous part of today’s digital communication. It is very easy to manipulate digital images for hiding some useful information by image rendering tools such as Adobe Photoshop, Microsoft Paint etc. The common image forgery which is easy to carry out is copy-move in which some part of an image is copied and pasted on another part of the same image to hide the important information. In this paper we propose an algorithm to spot the copy-move forgery based on exact match block based technique. The algorithm works by matching the regions in image that are equivalent by matching the small blocks of size b b. The program is tested for 45 images of mixed image file formats by considering block sizes 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, and 16. It is observed from the experimental results that the proposed algorithm can detect copy-move image forgery in TIF, BMP and PNG image formats only. Results reveal that as the block size increases, execution time (time taken by CPU to display output) also increases but the number of detected forged images increases till block size 10 and attains saturation thereafter. Consequently block size should be set to 10 for getting good results in terms of less execution time.
Terror in Christchurch: Here comes the ‘Peace Train’
Authors: Neill Lindsay , Hemmington Nigel , Emery Andrew
Published: October 2019

On 15 March 2019, a white supremacist gunman shot dead 50 Muslim worshippers at two mosques in Christchurch, Aotearoa, New Zealand. His actions changed forever the safe haven known as ‘God’s Own’. New Zealanders were shocked that such an event had happened here. Many Kiwis believed the nation to be safe, given its geographic isolation from the terrorist targets of Europe and the United States of America. However, the atrocity has exposed an unhealthy underbelly that has long permeated New Zealand’s socio-culture. Racism and discrimination have forefronted ensuing conversations. This article explores the nation’s history of discrimination preceding the terrorist attack. In doing so, we expose something subtly denied: that New Zealand is not the egalitarian land of milk and honey that many Kiwis believed it to be. We suggest that the terrorist attack not only highlighted the nation’s discrimination but also provided its liminal moment. Part of that liminality was Cat/Yusuf Steven’s performance, in Christchurch, of ‘Peace Train’. We compound our exploration of Aotearoa New Zealand’s history of discrimination by asking how the lyrics of ‘Peace Train’ provide a way to view our past and provide an opportunity to perceive a way forward for the nation, given the tragedy of terrorism. We suggest that ‘Peace Train’ is a metaphorical illumination of the nation’s liminality, and that it provided a road map of unity that helped to guide many Kiwis in understanding and coming to terms with not only what had happened but also a future view of how Kiwis might see themselves.
Resurrecting Frankenstein: Peter Ackroyd’s The Casebook of Victor Frankenstein and the metafictional monster within
Authors: Prosser Ashleigh
Published: October 2019

This article examines Peter Ackroyd’s popular Gothic novel The Casebook of Victor Frankenstein (2008), which is a reimagining of Mary Shelley’s famous Gothic novel Frankenstein, or, The Modern Prometheus ([1818] 2003). The basic premise of Ackroyd’s narrative seemingly resembles Shelley’s own, as Victor Frankenstein woefully reflects on the events that have brought about his mysterious downfall, and like the original text the voice of the Monster interrupts his creator to recount passages from his own afterlife. However, Ackroyd’s adaption is instead set within the historical context of the original story’s creation in the early nineteenth century. Ackroyd’s Frankenstein studies at Oxford, befriends radical Romantic poet Percy Bysshe Shelley, moves to London to conduct his reanimation experiments and even accompanies the Shelleys, Byron and Polidori on that fateful holiday when the original novel was conceived. This article explores how Ackroyd’s novel, as a form of the contemporary ‘popular’ Gothic, functions as an uncanny doppelgänger of Shelley’s Frankenstein. By blurring the boundaries between history and fiction, the original text and the context of its creation haunt Ackroyd’s adaptation in uncannily doubled and self-reflexive ways that speak to Frankenstein’s legacy for the Gothic in popular culture. The dénouement of Ackroyd’s narrative reveals that the Monster is Frankenstein’s psychological doppelgänger, a projection of insanity, and thus Frankenstein himself is the Monster. This article proposes that this final twist is an uncanny reflection of the narrative’s own ‘Frankenstein-ian’ monstrous metafictional construction, for it argues that Ackroyd’s story is a ‘strange case(book)’ haunted by the ghosts of its Gothic literary predecessors.
‘Uncle Sam’s Letterbag’: Children’s involvement in newspaper propaganda in the First World War
Authors: Cook Margaret
Published: October 2019

This paper draws on letters published weekly in ‘Uncle Sam’s Corner’, in Rockhampton’s Morning Bulletin and Central Queensland Herald between 1915 and 1918 to explore the role of journalists in disseminating popular narratives during the First World War. Through the children’s own words their understanding of unfolding events is exposed as is the role of journalist ‘Uncle Sam’ in shaping children’s wartime responses. Using his adjoining children’s corner and the responses given to the children’s letters, Uncle Sam inculcates the values of duty, service and sacrifice; the qualities demanded of the Empire’s civilians in wartime to aid military success. An examination of a specific children’s column reveals how media can overtly manipulate public perceptions to shape dominant societal narratives and highlights how children unwittingly participate in wartime propaganda.
Just add nostalgia and stir: Mythmaking Australian femininity through Anzac Biscuits, collective commemoration and heteronormativity
Authors: Cedro Carmel
Published: October 2019

Many sweet foods featured in contemporary Australian cookbooks are indelibly connected to culinary tradition and use nostalgia to encourage a sense of collective identity and experience. Anzac Biscuits exemplify this through ubiquity and familiarity, and the annual baking ritual becomes a collective commemoration that shapes ideologies of identity and myth, which are somewhat central to understanding the Australian experience. Yet the mythology around the biscuits is flawed. The recipe recognizable today as Anzac Biscuits can be traced from the 1920s onwards in Australian cookbooks, which calls into question the veracity of the well-told story of women on the home front baking and sending the biscuits to the Anzac trenches during the First World War. This article will examine the parallels between Australian traditions of baking culture and the functional value of the Anzac myth, and the way both seem to reaffirm cultural standards, and attempt to secure gender ideals by presenting unattainable fantasies. While the Australian interpretation of the Anzac myth reinforces a certain unattainable ideal of heroic masculinity – with courage, determination and sacrifice for nation – contemporary cookbooks reflect a romanticized domestic fantasy that centres on family and feminine practice, both heavily reliant on proscriptive heterosexuality and heteronormativity, enhanced and polished via a nostalgia-tinged lens.

Côté punk: Marc Caro
Authors: Scatton-Tessier Michelle
Published: October 2019

Coming to comics and cinema culture in 1970s Paris, Marc Caro and Jean-Pierre Jeunet brought their do-it-yourself (DIY) ethic to the screen with L’évasion (Jeunet, 1978), Le manège (Jeunet, 1980) and Le bunker de la dernière rafale (Caro and Jeunet,1981) – awarded shorts that would set the tone for Delicatessen (Caro and Jeunet, 1992) and La cité des enfants perdus (Caro and Jeunet, 1995). Acknowledged outsiders, the duo embraced a certain bricolage of early cinema, an interest in the carnival and apocalyptic science fiction applied to narrative and mise en scène. In this article, I argue for a reading of their cinema through the lens of DIY and punk. This is evident mostly in the works of Caro, who suggests that côté punk takes root in a passion for George Méliès coupled with adventurous explorations in sound and spectacle, a heightened intertextuality and a reclaimed retro-aesthetic, as foregrounded in Caro and Jeunet’s DIY ethic and Le bunker’s long-running double billing at the midnight movies with David Lynch’s Eraserhead (1977). From this, I study imagery and influence in Caro’s comics, graphic novels, films and music over the years. The duo’s recent exhibits in Paris and Lyon and publications offering retrospectives of their cinema make this scholarly inquiry all the more timely.
Hypervisibility in Australian punk scenes: Queer experiences of spatial logics of gender and sexuality
Authors: Sharp Megan
Published: October 2019

In this article, I draw on the knowledge and lived experience of queer people – some of whom also identify as trans, gender diverse and/or non-binary – who actively participate in Australian punk scenes. Using socio-geographical research of intersectionality, critical race theory and spatiality I find queer experiences of and in punk highlight a complication to claims of female and queer invisibility, one that takes into account spacial formations. Attending to queer, trans and gender-diverse people’s experiences, hypervisibility presents a conceptual entanglement where genders, bodies and sexualities attract attention from a dominant, patriarchal group, rather than being rendered invisible by it. This hypervisibility appears steeped in unintelligibility where being visible but unknowable presents a range of issues such as standing out not only in physical punk spaces such as gigs, but on digital platforms and in everyday life. As such, this article builds on a feminist thesis of invisibility politics by aiming to elasticize knowledges of gender, resistance and subcultural participation among marginalized groups.
Who remembers post-punk women?
Authors: Ward Jessica Blaise
Published: October 2019

Who remembers post-punk? Its cultural and musical presence in the late 1970s and the early 1980s is often celebrated by many, despite the numerous hardships that British society faced. From industrial disputes and strikes to anti-Thatcherism and youth unemployment, it was a transitionary time in British history. How do we remember post-punk? Established since the 1940s, memory work and oral histories provide an opportunity for this, although they simultaneously raise a multitude of issues, not least from terminology. ‘Individual memory’ and ‘collective memory’ both allow for misrepresentations, although Sara Jones contends that the latter ‘requires actors, both individual and institutional, to construct, transmit, and support particular narratives of the past’. It is hence paramount to ask: who has been permitted to remember? When considering memory alongside gender identity and post-punk, one can observe some of the opportunities that it afforded women, and yet debate continues to contest their ‘empowerment’ and ‘increased’ representation in popular music. Historically much memory work has been conducted by women, whilst oral histories of punk and post-punk have predominantly been written by men. Ultimately, this article examines the memory and representation of women through semi-structured interviews, revealing anecdotal nostalgia of post-punk by members of what was termed Generation X (those born between 1955 and 1975).
The Top of the Poppers sing and play punk
Authors: Bestley Russ
Published: October 2019

By the mid-1970s, the music industry had a long history of accommodating and recuperating teenage rebellion, and punk’s defiant message of radical change also offered new opportunities for commercial enterprise. A rush to sign new bands who could be (broadly) associated with punk and the concomitant shift towards ‘new-wave’ styles led to a degree of UK chart success for a number of groups. The inclusion of punk and new-wave songs on a series of low-budget compilations featuring cover versions of contemporary hits strikes a particularly discordant tone with punk’s self-styled image of a break with traditional music industry conventions. The albums released on the long-standing budget compilation series Top of the Pops between mid-1977 and early 1982 tell an interesting story about the cultural recuperation of punk, new-wave and post-punk, and ask questions, perhaps, about the legitimacy of punk’s often mythologized ‘outsider status’. From their saccharine cover images, harking back to the pin-ups of the 1950s, to the awkwardly dated language of sleeve notes and the notion that the diversity of contemporary ‘pop’ is not tarnished by subcultural differences, these albums reflect a fascinating period in punk’s acceptance, maturity and, perhaps, reluctant commodification.
‘I hold the key to the sea of possibilities’: Patti Smith Group and the occult
Authors: Ervin Jarek Paul
Published: October 2019

Patti Smith Group’s (PSG) music occupies a puzzling spot in punk history, given their oscillation between stylistic elements common to rock and roll and a range of ideas inherited from literature and avant-gardism. This article suggests that Smith’s work can be understood in light of her interest in the occult, part of a broader project to render rock and roll as a form of ritualistic practice. I begin by examining the way in which Smith and her commentators engaged with mystical themes, looking not only at her direct relationship to the spiritual world, but also her peculiar interpretation of rock. From there, I argue that Smith extended occult aesthetics, seeking the magical impart hidden within the milieu of midcentury US mass culture. Concluding with an analysis of ‘Land’, one of the group’s most iconic songs, I claim that the singer ultimately attempted to transform punk into an act of musical palingenesis, a form of sonic rebirth.

Published: October 2019

Aim: This study was aimed at evaluation of antioxidative activity, protein profile, and vitamins content of milk of Gaddi goats, local non-Gaddi goats, hill cattle, and Jersey crossbred cattle. Materials and Methods: Total phenol, antioxidant activity measured as 2, 2-diphenyl- 1-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging capacity, total protein, and vitamins were estimated in milk samples by spectrophotometric methods. Milk protein profiles were studied by sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Results: Total phenol, antioxidant activity, and total protein were higher in indigenous hill cattle skim milk. Average protein content in raw skimmed milk was 1.33±0.01, 1.03±0.02, 0.76±0.05, and 0.81±0.01%, in indigenous hill cattle, Jersey crossbred cattle, non-Gaddi goat, and Gaddi goat, respectively. Three proteins of 19.01, 22.08, and 32.96 kDa were observed in Gaddi goat, but not in non-Gaddi goat skim milk. Furthermore, the above proteins were absent in cattle skim milk. Two proteins of 15.56 and 25.06 kDa were found in local hill and crossbred cattle skimmed milk, but were absent in goat skimmed milk. Vitamin C content was the lowest in Gaddi goat milk and the highest in Jersey crossbred cattle milk. Conclusion: It is envisaged that bioactive metabolites in the milk of Gaddi goats and hill cattle might offer anti-aging and beneficial health effects.

Governance perlu mencirikan dan mengkapitaslisasi governance dengan karakteristik unggul yang ada di tingkat budaya para aktor (komunitas) ekonomi, yaitu pemerintah, pelaku usaha dan masyarakat baik dalam lokus global, pusat, dan deaerah. Membangun governance dalam konteks tersebut kami istilahkan sebagai ‘proper governance’. Operasional ‘proper governance’ dalam konteks daya saing diarahkan untuk membangun daya saing yang lebih inklusif dan cooperative. Guna mencapai hal tersebut maka interaksi antara aspek proper governance yang mencakup developmentalist, democratic, socially inclusive dan local content perlu bersinergi dengan aspek daya saing yang mencakup trust and confidence; gradual, balance and specific; and cooperative and collaborative.

Tulisan ini bertujuan menganalisis peluang dan tantangan pelibatan koperasi (KSP) dalam program KUR. Dengan menggunakan metode deskritif analisis, tulisan ini menunjukkan pelibatan koperasi membuka peluang terjadinya peningkatan jangkauan KUR untuk sektor produktif dengan distribusi yang lebih merata. Namun demikian, tulisan ini juga menekankan bahwa upaya pelibatan koperasi sebagai penyalur KUR perlu dilakukan secara hati-hati. KUR merupakan produk perbankan yang terikat dengan aturan-aturan microprudentials. Koperasi memerlukan periode penyesuaian agar memahami aturan-aturan KUR. Dari perspektif kebijakan, tantangan untuk melibatkan koperasi adalah kemampuan pemerintah dalam menyederhanakan dan mempercepat mekanisme pembayaran subsidi. Pemerintah juga perlu memiliki kriteria untuk memilih mana koperasi yang kompeten dilibatkan dalam program KUR. Tulisan ini merekomendasikan kriteria untuk menyeleksi koperasi didasarkan kepada. Pertama, memiliki struktur aset dan keuangan yang kuat. Kedua, memiliki pengalaman mengelola kredit mikro yang produktif. Ketiga, mampu mengembangkan SDM secara professional dan memiliki pengetahuan mengenai kredit mikro yang produktif. Keempat, mengembangkan infrastruktur IT (information and technology).

Perkembangan industri perbankan syariah saat ini merupakan salah satu indikator utama perkembangan ekonomi keuangan Islam secara umum di Indonesia. Dalam dunia perbankan, termasuk perbankan syariah, isu pengukuran efisiensi dan produktivitas menjadi 2 hal yang cukup penting. Studi ini mencoba menganalisis model CCR sebagai model dasar dalam DEA untuk melihat tingkat efisiensi bank umum syariah di Indonesia untuk periode 2012-2016. Selanjutnya indeks Malmquist digunakan untuk melihat tingkat produktivitas dari bank syariah, baik dari sisi perubahan efisiensinya maupun perubahan teknologi yang kemudian ditampilkan dalam bentuk kuadran 4 kelompok.Hasil yang diperoleh dari skor indeks Malmquist (TFP Change) menunjukkan bahwa 8 bank syariah dari total 11 BUS mengalami peningkatan produktivitas, atau sekitar 73% dari keseluruhan bank umum syariah. Untuk analisis kelompok bank dengan kriteria efficiency change (EFFCH) dan technological change (TECH), terdapat 1 bank umum syariah yang berada pada kuadran 1 (technical change dan efficiency change yang tinggi), ada 4 bank syariah yang berada pada kuadran 2 (technical change yang tinggi namun efficiency change rendah), dan 6 bank syariah yang masuk ke dalam kuadran 3 (technical change rendah namun efficiency change yang tinggi). Sementara itu tidak ada satu pun bank umum syariah yang masuk kategori kuadran 4.

Kajian ini di latar belakangi oleh pentingnya peranan UMKM di satu sisi, namun di sisi lain posisi UMKM sebagai representasi ekonomi mayoritas rakyat masih sangat lemah. Salah satu sumber masalah yang menghambat perkembangan UMKM adalah ketidakadilan akses pembiayaan usaha terutama dari pihak perbankan yang faktanya lebih dominan memberikan kredit pada segelitir pelaku usaha yakni kelompok usaha menengah dan besar dibandingkan untuk UMKM. Kajian ini di tujukan menggambarkan kondisi UMKM dan pembiayaannya serta masalah-masalah yang menyertainya yang diharapkan menyediakan input bagi otoritas pembangunan/pemerintah yang pada gilirannya memberikan kesadaran dan kepedulian yang memadai. Metode analisis kajian ini merupakan deskriptif-kualitatif yang dapat menjelaskan kondisi UMKM dan pembiayaannya serta permasalahannya, yang selanjutnya dilengkapi rekomendasi bagi perbaikan kondisi tersebut. Sebagai mayoritas usaha, UMKM memiliki akses yang terbatas terhadap modal terutama kredit dari lembaga keuangan Bank, dimana hanya memperoleh sekitar seperenam pangsa kredit nasional. Bahkan  dilihat “usaha mikro” (98,77 persen dari pelaku usaha) tahun 2013 hanya memperoleh pangsa kredit sekitar 3 persen saja. Upaya pengembangan skim kredit/pembiayaan UMKM yang disebut sebagai bagian dari “financial Inclusion” sangat diperlukan dalam mempercepat pembagunan berkualitas. Struktur PDB yang dikuasai sedikit orang merupakan ancaman bagi tujuan pembangunan dan tujuan keberadaan Negara. Oleh karena itu sangatlah perlu dan segera adanya prioritas kebijakan dan implementasinya untuk memperbesar kemampuan UMKM berkontribusi pada PDB nasiohal sehingga dapat disimpulkan perlunya pembinaan UMKM untuk bertambah kapasitasnya menuju sektor formal dan secara simultan perlu pula sistem pembiayaan mikro bergerak ke arah tempat pertemuan/inteseksi antara kapasitas pemenuhan syarat formalitas UMKM dan syarat-syarat minimal sistem pembiayaan mikro bisa dipenuhi.
PERAN PEMERINTAH DAN SWASTA DALAM PENYEDIAAN INFRASTRUKTUR PERIKANAN TANGKAP STUDI KASUS: BITUNG

Peran Infrastruktur memainkan peran penting dalam pembangunan suatu wilayah. Tidak dipungkiri keberadaan infrastruktur menjadi tulang punggung dalam meningkatkan perekonomian suatu kawasan. Bagi sektor perikanan tangkap, infrastruktur merupakan motor penggerak produksi perikanan. Pengadaan infrastruktur pelabuhan menjadi barometer penting bagi proses penangkapan hingga pengolahan bagi sektor perikanan tangkap.Dilihat dari segi ketersediaan infrastruktur, pelabuhan Kota Bitung sebetulnya telah memenuhi persyaratan kepelabuhan perikanan yang ditetapkan oleh Kementerian Kelautan dan Perikanan. Peningkatan skala pelabuhan menuntut pihak PPS Bitung untuk terus meningkatkan ketersediaan infrastruktur dalam menunjang kegiatan kepelabuhanan. Perluasan lahan menjadi fokus utama yang sedang dilakukan di samping dengan penambahan fasilitas-fasilitas pendukung lainnya seperti ketersediaan air bersih, daya listrik, pengolahan limbah, pengadaan mess ABK, gudang, dan pengerukan kedalaman dermaga bagi Pelabuhan Bitung. Sedangkan bagi pelabuhan dengan skala PPN seperti pada PPN Pelabuhan Ratu, kebutuhan infrastruktur relatif lebih sedikit dan lebih mengarah kepada kebutuhan pengembangan industri pengolahan di sekitar pelabuhan dan asuransi nelayan.Partisipasi swasta dalam pengadaan infrastruktur dapat dikatakan belum terelisasi penuh. Kebanyakan bentuk peran swasta lebih mengarah pada investasi dan CSR kepada masyarakat. Infrastruktur yang mereka bangun hanya diperuntukkan bagi kepentingan usaha seperti terminal untuk kepentingan sendiri (TUPKS). Untuk itu, agar ketersediaan infrastruktur bisa dipenuhi perlu ada skema pemerintah dan swasta dalam kerjasama pengadaan infrastruktur bagi kepentingan bersama. Hal ini dikarenakan anggaran pemerintah bersifat terbatas. Bagi kasus Bitung, masih ada pekerjaan rumah yang harus diselesaikan pemerintah daerah dalam membuat BUMD lokal sebagai mitra kerjasama bagi para investor yang hendak berinvestasi di Bitung.

AbstractThe structure of GDP nowadays is still dominated by households. As a result, economic growth stands at 5 percent. To boost economic growth performance, industrialization should be taken into account. In the process, energy availability particularly electricity becomes one of the main components. For this reason, the main purpose of this study is to measure the effect of electricity and industrialization on economic growth. To do so, this study employs ARDL model and uses secondary data with sample period from 1987 to 2016. Regression result analysis shows that electricity consumption, manufacturing, workers in the industrial sector, household consumption, and trading volume empirically significant both in the short-run and long-run. Interestingly, the value of the electricity consumption coefficient, the added value of processing industries, and the proportion of workers in the industrial sector are positive indicating that those variables contribute positively to economic growth. Meanwhile, the value of household consumption coefficient and trading volume is negative. This indicates that those variables contribute negatively to economic growth. Interestingly, among the five explanatory variables, electricity consumption is the strongest variable in boosting economic growth both in the short-run and the long-run. In addition, bounds cointegration test shows that all explanatory variables involved in this study have a long-term relationship with economic growth.

In general there are two indicators of financial system stability, namely microprudential and macroprudential. Among macroprudential indicators are economic growth, balance of payments, inflation rate, interest and exchange rates, crisis contagion effect, and many others. Different from the previous researches concerning financial system stability measurement, this research will use the financial and banking practitioners’ perspective regarding the leading indicator in measuring financial system stability thus we can presumably determine the real leading financial stability indicator for the current situation using Analytic Network Process (ANP) method.The results show that based on the results of interviews with experts/banking practitioners, the 3 (three) most important aspects are the Debt aspect (0.225), Macro Indicator (0.222) and the Balance of Payment aspect (0.217). An important indicator of financial system stability from the next macroprudential aspect is related to Contagion Effect (0.178) and the last Aspect Labor (0.159). The Macroprudential Policy issued by Bank Indonesia as the central bank that has full authority, play an important role in maintaining Financial System Stability (SSK) in Indonesia.
