Authors: Jihada Gigih
Published: September 2020

Abstrak – DLNA berfungsi dan bertujuan untuk memudahkan para penggunanya untuk berbagi/sharing konten antara perangkat. Teknologi ini sebenarnya telah banyak digunakan orang-orang dimana begitu banyak konten-konten yang disimpan pada komputer pribadi apakah itu foto, trek musik, atau bahkan file film. Dengan DLNA, pengguna dapat secara berkesinambungan mengalirkan/berbagi semua itu keseluruh isi rumah di perangkat lain yang telah terhubung seperti TV, printer, komputer menggunakan protokol UpnP (Universal Plug and Play).

Dalam penerapan teknologi DLNA pada jaringan membutuhkan DLNA Media Server, Client dan Data Storage yang menyimpan file untuk diputar dalam jaringan. Dalam penelitian ini, DLNA Media Server menggunakan wireless router TP-Link MR3420 yang sudah terinstall firmware OpenWRT dan penyimpanan menggunakan Hardisk External 320GB dengan multi sistem operasi sebagai DLNA Media Client.

Setelah melakukan beberapa pengujian termasuk compatibility, performa dengan parameter kecepatan read dan write pada server, power usage, network usage and total costs. Biaya yang dikeluarkan sekitar IDR 600.000 dengan daya yang dibutuhkan 7.65 watts, dan DLNA media server ini compatible dengan semua media client, tapi performanya kurang baik apabila digunakan oleh semua client secara bersamaan dan terus menerus

Authors: Subli Moh.
Published: September 2020

Permasalahan yang sering dialami dalam jaringan hotspot adalah jaringan lambat dan sinyal lemah. Permasalahan ini diakibatkan karena belum adanya user manager yang mengatur bandwidth dan jumlah user yang ada. Permasalahan ini sering diselesaikan dengan cara melakukan perbaikan sederhana dan melakukan konfigurasi ulang setiap terjadi masalah. Namun, pada jaringan hotspot yang sudah kompleks, pengkonfigrasian yang ulang akan memakan waktu yang lama serta menghabiskan banyak biaya. Oleh karena itu, sebuah jaringan hotspot memerlukan aplikasi user manager untuk memanajemen bandwidth dan manajemen user, sehingga dapat mengatur lalu lintas data dengan cepat dan efisien.  Dalam penelitian ini, peneliti membuat implementasi aplikasi user manager mikrotik berbasis web untuk memanejemen bandwith dan user. Implementasi aplikasi user manager mikrotik berbasis web dibuat untuk mempermudah dalam pengaturan jaringan hotspot yang sebelumnya hanya bisa dilakukan lewat winbox saja, tentunya ini dilakukan untuk memaksimalkan bandwidth yang ada, mengatur jumlah user, dan batas waktu akses. Dari hasil penelitian dapat diketahui bahwa penambahan aplikasi user manager dapat mengatur lalu lintas data atau pertukaran data menjadi lebih baik dan pemakaiannya lebih optimal.

VIRTUAL MACHINE FORENSIC ANALYSIS & RECOVERY (VMFAR) SEBAGAI FRAMEWORK UNTUK ANALISIS BUKTI DIGITAL PADA VIRTUAL MACHINE
Authors: Wahyudi Erfan , Miswanto Agus
Published: September 2020

Virtual Machine merupakan teknologi virtualisasi yang paling banyak digunakan saat ini untuk mempermudah pekerjaan dan menghemat sumber daya perangkat keras. Selain untuk penggunaan standar, virtual machine ini juga banyak digunakan sebagai alat untuk melakukan penelitian terhadap malware, instalasi jaringan dan lainnya. Meningkatnya penggunaan teknologi virtualisasi ini menjadi tantangan baru bagi ahli digital forensik untuk melakukan penelitian lebih lanjut terkait pemulihan barang bukti virtual machine image yang terhapus. Karena VM ini juga banyak digunakan oleh pelaku cybercrime untuk melakukan tindak kriminal pada dunia maya kemudian menghapus jejak digital dengan men-destroy virtual machine image yang telah digunakan tersebut atau mengembalikannya ke snapshot, teknik ini dikenal dengan anti-forensik. Banyak penelitian sebelumnya yang membahas tentang VM forensic ini, seperti pada dump memory VM dan snapshot. Tetapi belum ada yang membahas proses model atau alur yang digunakan untuk melakukan analisis terhadap sebuah barang bukti digital berupa virtual machine. Penelitian ini berusaha untuk mencoba dan mengidentifikasi Virtual Machine Forensic Analysis & Recovery (VMFAR) yang penulis rancang sebagai framework untuk melakukan analisis terhadap bukti digital.

Analisis Kinerja Video Conference pada Jaringan Mobile IPv6 Dengan Triangle Tunneling Method
Authors: Multazam Muhammad
Published: September 2020

Mobile IP merupakan protocol yang mendukung mobilitas dari user, dengan mobile IP sebuah node dapat terus berkomunikasi dengan node yang lain dimanapun dia berada. Mobile IPv6 memperbolehkan node yang telah mempunyai dukungan terhadap IPv6 untuk meninggalkan jaringan asalnya sementara node tersebut sedang memperbarui koneksinya ke internet. Hal ini berarti bahwa mobile IPv6 bisa mengidentifikasi tiap-tiap node dengan static address-nya, tanpa memperhatikan point of attachment nya ke internet.Mobile IPv6 yang digunakan pada makalah ini memakai metode triangle tunneling yaitu metode perutean pengiriman paket dimana ketika correspondent node (CN) mengirimkan paket menuju mobile node (MN), home agent (HA) mengambil alih paket tersebut dan mengirimkannya ke care of address dari MN dengan tunneling, sedangkan MN dapat mengirimkan langsung menuju CN. Pada makalah ini dilakukan pengujian video conference (multipont) pada jaringan Mobile IPv6 dengan metode triangle tunneling untuk diukur parameter-parameter QoS meliputi packet loss, delay, jitter, throughput dan MOS.Berdasarkan hasil uji coba dengan memperhatikan parameter-parameter QoS yang dianalisa terlihat bahwa kualitas MN yang berada di jaringan asalnya (homenet) lebih baik ketika berada di jaringan yang sedang dikunjungi (visitnet), hal ini disebabkan dengan metode triangle tunneling paket yang dikirim menuju MN dirutekan ke HA terlebih dahulu sehingga meningkatkan trafik jaringan, selain itu pada uji coba handover terdapat nilai rata-rata delay yang cukup besar yaitu 3.367 detik untuk paket video dan 3.269 detik untuk paket audio, karena pada saat handover, MN membutuhkan waktu untuk memperbaharui koneksi dan melakukan konfigurasi ulang jaringan yang ada.

Model Klasifikasi Sel Kanker Payudara Dengan Pendekatan Oversampling Data dan Seleksi Fitur
Authors: Pradipta Gede Angga
Published: September 2020

Pada umumnya, kanker payudara didiagnosis melalui pemeriksaan rutin atau ketika pasien menyadari gejala-gejala tertentu. Pemeriksaan fisik saja tidak cukup untuk mengonfirmasi diagnosis kanker payudara, sehingga dilakukan perangkaian prosedur pemeriksaan seperti mamografi, biopsi,dan lain sebagainya untuk memperoleh informasi terkait diagnosis dan kebutuhan terapi pasien. Salah satu data penunjang diagnosis oleh paramedis adalah sel kanker berupa citra mikroskopis yan diamnbil dari tubuh pasien menggunakan kamera khusus. Pengolahan citra membantu paramedis sebagai penyedia informasi dalam meningkatkan diagnosa terhadap penyakit. Pada penelitian ini dilakukan proses pengolahan citra untuk mengetahui ciri dari jua jenis sel kanker yaitu benign dan malignant. Metode gray level co-occurence matrix (GLCM) dan statitical analysis digunakan untuk mendapatkan nilai dari fitur yang digunakan sebagai parameter.Fitur-fitur yang digunakan adalah contrast, energy, correlation, homogenity, average, mean, min, variance, dan standard deviation selain itu diusulkan sebuah fitur yaitu jumlah sel pda tiap kategori jenis kanker payudara. Pada penelitian ini menghasilkan sebuah skema atau usulan model yang digunakan untuk mengenali jenis citra sel kanker payudara kedalam dua kelas yaitu malignant dan benign. Skema model pertama yaitu tanpa oversampling dan seleksi fitur menunjukkan hasil yang kurang memuaskan dimana akurasi yang didapat hanya mencapai 63.94%. Maka dari itu diusulkan skema/model perbaikan dengan penambahan proses oversampling (SMOTE) pada dataset yang dimiliki dan melakukan seleksi fitur yang sebelumnya berjumlah 24 kemudian diseleksi menjadi 5 terbaik yang memiliki kontribusi paling tinggi dengan menggunakan metode Correlation based Feature Selection (CFS). Hasil yang didapat adalah 5 fitur terbaik yaitu Jumlah sel, correlation 45, energy 180, Min, Class. Hasil ini juga membuktikan bahwa fitur jumlah sel yang diusulkan pada penelitian ini memiliki kontribusi yang sangat baik pada performa classifier dalam membedakan kelas malignant dan benign pada datase

The Disutility of Labor
Authors: Fegley Tate , Israel Karl-Friedrich
Published: September 2020

Some Austrian economists have argued that the disutility of labor is a necessary auxiliary empirical assumption to complement otherwise a priori economic theory in order for it to apply to the real world. Without this assumption, it is claimed that individuals will supply the full quantity of labor of which they are physically capable. We argue that the disutility of labor assumption is unnecessary to derive this conclusion, which can instead be derived through standard marginal analysis. Leisure (the state of not engaging in labor) is a necessary complementary good for consuming other goods. As such, leisure’s status as a consumer good is a priori true, not an empirical assumption. Furthermore, the concept of disutility of labor is not only unnecessary but also leads to confusion due to its being used in two different ways, and therefore ought to be discarded.
Income and Substitution Effects: A Rejoinder to Professor Joseph Salerno
Authors: Israel Karl-Friedrich
Published: September 2020

Professor Joseph Salerno (2019) has commented on my recent reconstruction of the income effect from a causal-realist perspective (Israel, 2018b). In this rejoinder, I clarify my position and show that the main points of criticism in Salerno’s response are unfounded. In particular, I show that my argument does not involve a claim of greater “realism of assumptions” and it by no means contradicts the law of demand. Moreover, I work out in more detail the similarities and differences of my approach to the standard neoclassical decomposition of income and substitution effects. I show that my approach is closer to the Slutsky decomposition as opposed to the Hicks decomposition.
Book Review: "The Marginal Revolutionaries: How Austrian Economists Fought the War of Ideas"
Authors: Bostaph Samuel
Published: September 2020

Janek Wasserman's Marginal Revolutionaries is not so much an intellectual history of Austrian scholarship as a sociological history of a group of scholars who were initially united by geography and eventually were influential in many international research and policy institutions. While the book contains an interesting social narrative of the Austrian school, it falls short in its general economic understanding. A mischaracterization of the Methodenstreit and a serious misunderstanding of Wieser mar the book, as does a politicized ad hominem in the conclusion.
Book Review: "The Deficit Myth: Modern Monetary Theory and the Birth of the People's Economy"
Authors: Murphy Robert
Published: September 2020

Stephanie Kelton’s persuasive and clever new book _The Deficit Myth_ does a very good job explaining Modern Monetary Theory to new readers, but however fun the book, it is utterly wrong. The standard accounting is correct: it actually costs something when the government spends money. Having an unfettered printing press isn't a magic wand and doesn’t give us more options. It merely gives the Fed greater license to cause boom/bust cycles and redistribute wealth to politically connected insiders.
Stochastic Lot Sizing Problem with Carbon Emission Constraints
Authors: KOCA Esra
Published: September 2020

In
this paper, we study the stochastic lot sizing problem with probabilistic
carbon emission constraints. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first
study that considers this problem. We study the problem under static
uncertainty strategy and α service level constraints. We consider both the
periodic and global carbon emission constraints and use chance constraints to
ensure that the carbon emission constraints are satisfied with the desired
probabilities. We formulate the problems as mixed integer program and solve
them by a commercial solver. Our computational experiments show that the
formulations can be solved for quite large problem instances
in reasonable times. We compare the probabilistic global and periodic emission
constraints according to their effects on the total cost and carbon
emissions.

Currently, more than 300 satellites have been launched into space and providing us with information about the Earth and processes which happens in there. Those information is very useful in all branches. These satellites started to modify and modernize year by year. Especially after 2000, satellites of very high resolution were launched into space. These satellites are sending information with very high resolution. To improve the speed and accuracy of the analysis of these images, scientists have developed a number of methods and programs. As a result, users often find face to difficulties with knowing which method or program is most effective. In this article, analyzed many researches and scientific studies and analyzed WorldView-2 (WV2) images of the Syrdarya Province based on field experiments and outlined the advantages and disadvantages of the method and tool. WV2 images are very important and provide much relevant data for all image analysis. VHR of these images can increase the quality and possibilities of all analysis. But usage of these images globally has not developed because of their costs. Square of satellite image capturing is very little for global analysis. to do global analysis we need 100 s of this image. That is why scientists use this data more often for correlation or creating general methods. That is why it has not been used for regional and global analysis. In our research, we used GEOBIA’s eCognition software. The accuracy of this program is 95 %. In arid regions like Uzbekistan, we recommend optimal software, analyse steps and data.

Published: September 2020

BACKGROUND Tuberculosis remains a major global problem and a public health issue of considerable magnitude. The World Health Organisation (WHO) estimates that one third of the world’s population is infected with mycobacterium tuberculosis, with the highest prevalence of tuberculosis in Asia. Shunt surgery for hydrocephalus associated with tuberculous meningitis has proven to be highly efficacious. Few studies have addressed the issue of outcome of shunt surgery and impact of CSF (Cerebrospinal fluid) picture in post tuberculous meningitis hydrocephalus shunt surgery. MATERIAL AND METHODS The study was a prospective study conducted in Department of Neurosurgery, PGIMER, Dr. RML Hospital, New Delhi. The duration of follow up was of 6 months. 70 patients were enrolled in the study. All patients who underwent ventriculo-peritoneal shunt surgery for hydrocephalus with tuberculous meningitis in Neurosurgery department at PGIMER & Dr.RML hospital were included in the study. All the patients who had hydrocephalus following tuberculous meningitis were evaluated using Modified Vellore grading of TBM and hydrocephalus. All the patients who underwent ventriculo-peritoneal shunt surgery had have their CSF analysis (cytology, protein, sugar, Gram stain, ZN stain, India ink and aerobic culture) done. Outcome of the surgery were evaluated based on Glasgow outcome score (GOS), radiological parameters and complications. Statistical analysis was performed by the SPSS program for Windows, version 17.0. RESULTS The age of patients enrolled into the study varied from 2 months to 87 years with 44.3% of patients in 1-5 years age group. Patients were divided into 4 grades according to Modified Vellore Grading. Grades at the time of admission were compared with the final Glasgow outcome scale. At the time of admission 6 patients were in Grade I, 13 patients in Grade II, 45 patients in Grade III and 6 patients in Grade IV. GOS was 5 in Grade I, 4.69 +/- in Grade II, 4.50 +/- IN Grade III and 2.17+/- in Grade IV. Outcome was compared according to Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) cell count, sugar and protein levels but none was found to be significant. Number of shunt revisions were compared to CSF cell count and sugar level but none was found to be significant. Mean FH/ID ratio before surgery was 60.89% which was reduced to 43.70% after 6 months follow up. CONCLUSION Ventriculo-peritoneal shunt surgery is a safe and effective treatment modality to treat tuberculous meningitis with hydrocephalus in all grades of patients except in Grade IV. CSF protein, sugar levels and cell count neither affect the outcome nor increase the risk of shunt malfunction

Myiasis in head and neck region is a rare occurrence and is usually found in tropical countries like India. Poor hygiene, unsanitary living conditions, mental retardation, neglected wounds, diabetes mellitus and old age along with a warm and humid climate lay down a conducive environment for the larva of dipterous fly to infest humans. Maggots due to their tissue destructive properties can affect many regions in otolaryngorhinology like nasal cavity, ears, oral cavity, tracheostomy site ostoma, PNS, the skin and ulcerative lesions of head and neck. The burden of the disease lies in the fact that the complications range from minor tissue destruction, perforation of either the tympanic membrane, palate or septum, vertigo, angioedema to severe neurological manifestations, intracranial extension or rarely even death.
Objective: To assess the commonly affected age group and gender infested by myiasis, it’s seasonal trend, socioeconomic status of the affected patients and the relationship of myiasis infestation with various predisposing factors.
Methodology: Retrograde study was conducted on 95 patients of department of otorhinolaryngology. The study was done from January 2015 to October 2018 by collecting data of 3 years 10 months time interval and results tabulated. Ethical clearance was sort and patients consent obtained.
Result: The most commonly affected age group was found to be elderly, in the 7th decade of life (56.84%). Females were more commonly affected than males consisting of 55 out of 95 cases (57.89%), with a male female ratio of 1:1.4. Majority of cases presented in the months of October-January, with a peak in November (32/95). Nasal myiasis was found to be more common (69 cases) in comparison to aural and oral cavity myiasis. The most common predisposing factor was found to be Atrophic Rhinitis in 66.7% cases.

A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF IN VIVO EFFECT OF PERCUTANEOUS BONE MARROW INJECTION VS WITHOUT INJECTION ON UNION OF OPEN TIBIAL SHAFT FRACTURES WITH EXTERNAL FIXATOR
Authors: Desai Hrishikesh , G Kirtiraj , P Abhay
Published: September 2020

Background : Open tibial fractures are notorious fractures because the open wound leaves us with limited options and means multiple operations with long intervals for the patient. The usual method of treatment of contaminated, late presenting and complicated fractures is a temporary external fixator followed by conversion into a costly definitive procedure once the wound has healed. The secondary definitive procedure also means extra cost in an already economically stressed patient.In our set up we have to often let patients leave with a plaster cast after removing the external fixator for economic constrains. Per cetaceous autologous bone marrow injection while the patient is on external fixator is one alternative that we have tried to deal with this problem hoping for a primary union without any costly intervention.
Materials and methods : We had 42 cases of open tibial fractures which were treated with external fixator and per cutaneous bone marrow injection while 38 other cases which were used as control with only the external fixator and no injections. We included open fractures of only Gustilo Anderson type II,IIIA and B for our study. Study was conducted between period of June 2012 and December 2013 at SBKS medical college .
Results : In group one, 34 of the 42 patients had a radiological union before 12 weeks while another 2 in 16 weeks. For group 2 , only 16 of the 38patients had radiological union at 12 weeks and no more at 16 weeks. The average time of union for group 1 was 10 weeks while of group 2 was 12 weeks .Function of the union cases of both the groups was similar in all aspects including distance of walking and ability to carry out daily activities.
Conclusion : Per cutaneous autologous bone marrow injections are cheap , easily available and successful alternative to a secondary procedure for open tibial fractures on external fixators.

SUICIDE RELATED RISK FACTORS DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC.
Authors: Lingeswaran Anand
Published: September 2020

In India, media and press report frequent suicidal death in the context of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Apart from known sociodemographic, psychological and mental health disorder related risk factors of suicide, a unique, different set of reasons seem to be noted among suicides during this pandemic. Notably, fear of being infected and infecting dear ones, lack of understanding about the disease, fear of isolation, distress from lockdown, boredom from excess time with self, uncertainty of cure, despair of being locked at home and socially isolated, all together compound emergence of preexisting new onset depression, panic, post-traumatic stress, psychoses and substance use. Complicated economic, social, and political instability due lockdown has worsened vulnerability to suicidal behaviours among general population and healthcare workers. Although the long-term evolution of the course of suicide and covid-19 disease is unpredictable, the first few months have identified few unique risk factors and research must work on specific tailored strategies that address these novel risk factors are needed to mitigate suicide now.

Coronavirus infection 2019 (COVID-19) is an infectious malady brought about by extreme intense respiratory condition coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2). It rose as a worldwide pandemic in mid 2020, influencing in excess of 200 nations and domains. The contamination is exceptionally infectious, with illness transmission detailed from asymptomatic bearers, including youngsters. It spreads through individual to-individual contact by means of vaporized and beads. The act of social separating—keeping up a separation of 1-2 m or 6 ft—between individuals has been prescribed generally to slow or end the spread. In orthodontics, this separation is hard to keep up, which places orthodontists at a high danger of procuring and transmitting the contamination. The target of this survey is to answer to orthodontists on the rise, the study of disease transmission, dangers, and safety measures during the ailment emergency. This survey should help increment mindfulness, fortify disease control, and forestall cross-transmission inside the orthodontic office.

Authors: Verma Puneet
Published: September 2020

I hereby present a case of an asymptomatic patient whose catecholamine secreting tumor was diagnosed intraoperatively due to acute high increase in blood pressure on tumor manipulation, thought to be arising from pancreas. The fall in blood pressure was also present on removal on mass. The transient increase in catecholamines also led to pulmonary oedema which was managed accordingly. The fluctuations of blood pressure and heart rate in line with blood catecholamine levels along with other complications like arrhythmias and pulmonary oedema in such cases provide unique challenge to anesthesiologists.

In this COVID-19 pandemic situation as we know Offices are partially opened and

Schools and Colleges are about to open. So we have to face the situation with the

possible measures to reduce the spreading of the COVID19. We have to move on by

implementing strong protective measures while trying to keep the economy going.

According to WHO Some of most common ways to protect ourselves from COVID19 are

as follows:

● Take care in your workplaces.

● Take care of physical distancing.

● Take care to spread the word not the virus.

● What to consider for health before opening the workplace

● Take care of sanitization

● Take care of yourself.

In these most common and preferable ways to protect ourselves is Proper Screening

and if something went wrong in this then proper precautions.

So while the time of screening the one who is checking the temperature of everyone

can be more in danger, and this can also lead to more spread of virus. Because if while

screening someone who is Positive, the one who is screening the positive patient can

also get affected and after that he can affect more people by just screening them.

So at this time we need to find the alternative for screening everyone contactlessly. For

this we came up with a solution that is Contactless Thermal Detection which is made

with all the safety measures for the Organization or any public places where we

screening for temperature is needed for Covid. With this Employees, Workers,

Students, Teachers can record their temperature while entering their respective

workplaces contactlessly.
