Functional renormalization group approach for signal detection
Authors: Lahoche Vincent , Ousmane Samary Dine , Tamaazousti Mohamed
Published: December 2024

This review paper utilizes renormalization group techniques for signal detection in nearly continuous positive spectra. We emphasize the universal aspects of the analogue field-theory approach. The primary objective is to present an extended self-consistent construction of the analogue effective field-theory framework for data, which can be interpreted as a maximum entropy model. In particular, we leverage universality arguments to justify the \mathbb{Z}_2ℤ2 symmetry of the classical action, highlighting the existence of both a large-scale (local) regime and a small-scale (nonlocal) regime. Secondly, in relation to noise models, we observe the universal relationship between phase transitions and symmetry breaking near the detection threshold. Finally, we address the challenge of defining the covariance matrix for tensor-like data. Based on the cutting graph prescription, we note the superiority of definitions that rely on complete graphs of large size for data analysis.

Authors: Situmorang Soraya Agustina
Published: December 2024

The research investigates the influence of emotional intelligence (EI) and organizational commitment (OC) on organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) within PT XYZ. OCB, which involves voluntary actions benefiting the organization, is increasingly recognized as essential for organizational success. Emotional intelligence, the ability to perceive and manage emotions, plays a crucial role in fostering these behaviors, while organizational commitment reflects the dedication and attachment employees feel towards their company. Using a cross-sectional design, data were collected from 100 employees via a structured questionnaire. Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that emotional intelligence and organizational commitment significantly and positively influence OCB. Specifically, employees with higher emotional intelligence and more substantial organizational commitment demonstrate greater engagement in discretionary behaviors that support organizational functioning. The study concludes that fostering emotional intelligence and organizational commitment within the workforce can significantly enhance OCB, contributing to improved organizational effectiveness. These findings suggest that organizations should prioritize emotional intelligence training and strengthen employee commitment to boost overall performance.

Published: December 2024

This study examines the dynamics of trade relations between the Philippines and the United States during the leadership of President Bongbong Marcos, the 17th President of the Philippines. The primary objective of this research is to identify obstacles, challenges, and opportunities in the bilateral relations of the two nations, with a particular focus on political, economic, and security aspects. Employing the theories of liberalism and complex interdependence, the study explores how economic cooperation and mutual dependence influence trade policy relations between the Philippines and the United States. The research uses a qualitative descriptive method, involving an in-depth analysis of data and information related to trade policies, bilateral agreements, and external factors that may affect relations during President Bongbong Marcos's administration. The findings reveal that, despite progress in trade cooperation, obstacles such as protectionist policies and global economic instability remain significant challenges. Future prospects indicate substantial growth potential if both nations can overcome these barriers through constructive dialogue and mutually beneficial policy reforms. A limitation of this study lies in the uncertainty of Philippine-U.S. relations due to frequent political dynamics. However, the impact of this research lies in its ability to anticipate the continuation of Philippine-U.S. relations through insights derived from field data.
Efficient Computation of Number Fractions from the Square Root of Two Using the A-B Goen Number Function Via the Ivan Newton (in) Series
Authors: Goenawan Stephanus Ivan
Published: December 2024

The square root number of two is an irrational number. If it is an irrational number, the result cannot be written as a fraction of the numerator and denominator. Fractions that approach the square root value of two have a correlation with Goen's A-B numbers. The regularity of the A-B Goen number sequence can be formulated into the A-B Goen function which is built from the Ivan Newton series. In this research, it can be proven that the A-B Goen function from the Ivan Newton (IN) series is computationally more effective and efficient when compared to the A-B Goen generating function in producing A-B Goen numbers which in infinite sequence will approach the square root value of two.

Authors: Purnama Mohammad Dian
Published: December 2024

An instrument for measuring human development, the Human Development Index (HDI) looks at how well human development has been achieved in relation to a few fundamental aspects of quality of life. In 2023, East Java's HDI showed an increase in the last three years with the latest value of 73.38. Despite the increase, East Java still has the lowest HDI in Java and Bali. This situation suggests the need for an in-depth analysis of the factors that influence HDI. This study aims to identify factors that contribute to HDI to formulate more appropriate policies in the future. The data used is the HDI of East Java in 2023 with ordinal categories. To analyze the ordinal data, the ordinal probit regression method was applied. The results show that the percentage of poor people has a significant influence on HDI. In addition, the classification accuracy of the model is obtained with a value of 50.5%, which indicates that the accuracy of the model in predicting HDI into the right category reaches 50.5%.

Published: December 2024

Catfish (Clarias sp.) is a type of fish that is relatively easy to cultivate and has relatively fast growth. The quality and quantity of raw materials used to make feed must be considered to enhance the growth of catfish. One of the nutrients in the feed needed by catfish is protein. Protein is utilized by catfish for the growth process. One alternative protein source to fish meal is fish waste meal. Fish waste meal contains a protein content of 46.02% and has a lysine amino acid profile content of 3.68%. The aim of this research is to determine the effect of substituting fish waste flour for fish flour in feed on the growth performance of catfish. This study employed an experimental method with a completely randomized design (CRD) consisting of 5 treatments and 3 replications. The treatments tested were treatment A (40% fish waste flour), B (30% fish waste flour), C (20% fish waste flour), D (10% fish waste flour), and E (0% fish waste flour). The test fish used were Sangkuriang catfish with a weight of 2.85-3.15 grams with a stocking density of 10 per container. The catfish were reared in an aquarium with a water volume of 35 liters. Maintenance was carried out for 42 days with feeding three times a day at 08:00, 12:00, and 16:00. The research results indicate that substituting fish meal with fish waste flour significantly affects (P<0.05) TFC, FUE, FCR, SGR, and absolute weight. The best dose of fish meal substitution with fish waste flour is treatment B (30% substitution of fish waste flour), which can produce TPW of 191,61±1,910 gram; FUE of 61,74±0,441 % FCR of 1,62±0,012; SGR of 3,87±0,043% per day; and absolute weight of 11,98±0,193 grams.

Published: December 2024

Engineered nanomaterials are widely used in water and wastewater treatment processes, and minimizing their adverse effects on biological treatment processes in wastewater treatment plants has become the primary focus. In this study, activated carbon fiber (ACF)-loaded manganese oxide nanomaterials (MnOx@ACF) were synthesized. A small-scale sequencing batch reactor (SBR) was constructed to simulate the synergistic degradation of pollutants by nanomaterials and microorganisms and the effects of nanomaterials on the structure of the microbial community in a wastewater treatment plant. The MnOx@ACF exhibited efficient removal of pollutants (98.7% in 30 cycles) and chemical oxygen demand (COD 96.4% in 30 cycles) through the formation of Mn-microbial complexes and enhanced cycling between Mn(III) and Mn(II) over 30 operating cycles. Metagenome analysis results showed that the microbial population composition and functional abundance increased when the SBR was exposed to different dosages of MnOx@ACF for a long time, among which 0.2 g/L MnOx@ACF exhibited the highest stimulation and influence on the functional abundance of microorganisms, which showed optimum ecological effects.

O presente artigo se propõe a explorar o ideal de progresso, a partir da compreensão da supervalorização do crescimento econômico, principalmente a partir da globalização. A proposta é de apresentar a relação do ideal de desenvolvimento com o sistema colonial e a configuração do mundo global que se estruturou desde então, a partir da distinção e separação entre países desenvolvidos e subdesenvolvidos, bem como entender porque o conceito de desenvolvimento sustentável, ancorado no eurocentrismo e na visão mecanicista, é incompatível com a sustentabilidade e se constitui como fator limitante para o direito ambiental e a ampla proteção da natureza.
Tecnologias na produção de mudas de romãzeiras (Punica granatum L.)
Authors:   , Almeida João Paulo Nobre de
Published: December 2024

As informações sobre a formação de mudas e crescimento inicial da romãzeira
(Punica granatum L.) são escassas nas condições do semiárido nordestino. Neste sentido, foram realizados três experimentos com romãzeiras, objetivando determinar os procedimentos adequados para uma produção de mudas de qualidade e verificar sua adaptação aos estresses abióticos nas condições semiáridas. Os experimentos foram conduzidos na Universidade Federal Rural do Semi-Árido (UFERSA, Campus Mossoró - RN). No primeiro experimento objetivou-se avaliar a superação de dormência, a emergência e o crescimento inicial de plântulas de romãzeira após diferentes tratamentos pré-germinativos nas sementes. Os tratamentos aplicados nas sementes foram: testemunha (remoção da sarcotesta); embebição das sementes em água destilada durante
24, 48, 72 e 96 h; imersão das sementes em hipoclorito de sódio (NaClO) durante 5, 10, 15 e 20 min; imersão em ácido giberélico (GA3) nas concentrações de 250, 500 e 1000 mg L-1; imersão em ácido sulfúrico concentrado (H2SO4) durante 5, 10, 15 e 20 min; imersão em água quente a 80°C durante 2, 4, 6 e 8 min, perfazendo 20 tratamentos, arranjados em um delineamento experimental de blocos casualizados, com 4 repetições de 25 sementes, totalizando 80 parcelas experimentais. A embebição das sementes em água por 72 e/ou 96 horas, e a imersão em ácido giberélico foram eficientes na superação da dormência das sementes de romãzeira. No segundo experimento foram avaliados a adaptação e o desempenho fisiológico em mudas de romãzeiras em função das doses de
polímero hidroretentor em diferentes níveis de sombreamento. Utilizou-se o
delineamento em blocos casualizados em esquema fatorial 3x2, sendo três concentrações de hidrogel (0, 1 e 2 g kg-1) e dois níveis de sombreamento (pleno sol e atenuação de 50% da radiação solar) e quatro repetições. Não houve influência do uso do polímero hidroretentor no crescimento e biomassa seca em mudas de romãzeiras em função do seu ambiente de cultivo. As mudas apresentaram melhores parâmetros de crescimento e alocação de massa seca quando sombreadas. No terceiro experimento, objetivou-se estudar o efeito dos níveis de salinidade da água de irrigação sobre o crescimento, fisiologia, bioquímica e tolerância das mudas de romãzeiras à salinidade. Utilizou-se o
delineamento em blocos casualizados (DBC) com cinco tratamentos (CEa de 0,6; 3,0; 6,0; 9,0; 12,0 dS m-1) e cinco repetições. As salinidades da água de irrigação até a CE 6,0 dS m-1 não influenciaram a qualidade de mudas de romãzeiras, apresentando mudas aptas para o plantio. Levando em consideração o critério de avaliação de tolerância à salinidade, as mudas de romãzeiras nas condições de semiárido se apresentaram tolerante aos efeitos da salinidade até a CE de 6,0 dS m-1. Em condição de estresse salino, a romãzeira apresenta tolerância adaptativa com a sua atividade fotossintética e eleva o acúmulo de prolina e açúcares
solúveis em suas folhas nas condições semiáridas

: Avaliar a influência da obturação e de uma ferramenta para redução de artefatos metálicos (FRAM) na detecção do canal mesovestibular 2 (MV2) de molares superiores (MS) em tomografia computadorizada cone beam (TCCB). Material e métodos: Neste estudo in vitro, 9 MS foram escaneados previamente ao tratamento endodôntico. Realizaram-se a abertura coronária, preparo dos canais com instrumentos reciprocantes, irrigação e obturação com cones de guta-percha e cimento endodôntico. O canal MV2 não foi acessado e obturado, mesmo quando identificado. Posteriormente, os dentes foram submetidos a duas novas TCCB sem e com o acionamento da FRAM durante os escaneamentos. As imagens foram analisadas por dois examinadores experientes em interpretação de TCCB, que avaliaram a possibilidade de identificar o canal MV2 nos exames. Resultados: Nas imagens iniciais sem obturação, o canal MV2 foi identificado em 88,9% das amostras (n=8), enquanto nos escaneamentos após a obturação o canal MV2 foi detectado em 88,9% dos dentes (n=8) quando a ferramenta não estava ativada (não coincidindo com a avaliação das imagens base em todas as amostras) e em 22,2% dos casos (n=2) quando a ferramenta estava ativada. Ao realizar o teste Kappa, a concordância na identificação do canal MV2 nas imagens iniciais e pós-obturação sem a ferramenta foi de 77,8% (K=0,778) e de 33,3% (K=0,333) nas imagens iniciais e com a ferramenta, consideradas concordâncias moderada e mínima, respectivamente. Conclusão: A obturação influenciou a detecção do canal MV2 em TCCB, visto que a FRAM impactou de maneira negativa a identificação dos canais não tratados e obturados.

Authors: Ana de Lourdes Sá de Lira  , Ana Gabrielle Silva de Oliveira
Published: December 2024

A capacidade mastigatória está relacionada com o número de dentes envolvidos, força, duração e ciclos durante a mastigação. Porém pouco se discute sobre as características dos alimentos utilizados na avaliação da mastigação. Objetivo: Comparar a capacidade mastigatória de adolescentes, em ambos os gêneros, que apresentavam algum tipo de maloclusão. Material e métodos: Participaram da pesquisa 378 alunos do ensino fundamental e médio, de 12 a 17 anos, divididos em duas turmas com 189 alunos, G1 (de 12 a 14 anos) e G2 (de 15 a 17 anos), cada turma com 63 alunos de cada idade. A capacidade mastigatória foi avaliada após testes com biscoito wafer e castanha. Resultados: As maloclusões mais prevalentes foram Classe I (58%) e Classe II (36,7%), e a menos prevalente foi a Classe III (5,3%). Para ambos os gêneros no G2, houve maior tempo mastigatório de ambos os alimentos (p = 0,01). O tempo de mastigação (média 30,44 ± 12,94 para o biscoito wafer e 26,63 ± 9,87 para castanha) (p = 0,01) para as mulheres foi maior do que para os homens com os dois alimentos testados. O ciclo mastigatório com wafer foi significativamente maior (p = 0,01) para o gênero feminino. Conclusão: A maloclusão mais prevalente foi a Classe I. A evolução da capacidade mastigatória ocorreu proporcionalmente à idade dos adolescentes e ao maior número de contato oclusal de dentes posteriores. O tempo médio de mastigação do grupo que usou biscoito wafer foi maior do que o grupo que usou castanha para ambos os gêneros, sem diferença entre os gêneros quanto aos ciclos de mastigação.

Published: December 2024

O transplante dentário autógeno é uma técnica que envolve a transferência de um dente de um alvéolo para outro, no mesmo indivíduo, seja na maxila ou mandíbula. Essa abordagem tem se destacado como uma alternativa promissora para a reposição de elementos dentais perdidos precocemente. Objetivo: Apresentar um relato de caso exemplificando o transplante dentário autógeno como uma opção eficaz e economicamente vantajosa para a reabilitação oral. Relato do caso: Paciente do sexo masculino, com 17 anos, procurou a clínica para a realização da exodontia do dente 46 em virtude de uma extensa lesão cariosa. Após minucioso exame clínico e radiográfico, constatou-se que o dente 46 não apresentava condições para tratamento endodôntico e restaurador, enquanto o dente 18 tinha tamanho compatível. Diante dessa constatação, optou-se pela exodontia simultânea dos dentes 46 e 18, seguida pelo transplante do dente 18 para o local previamente preparado do dente 46. Conclusão: O acompanhamento do caso por dois anos permitiu a observação da progressão da rizogênese e a manutenção da saúde do ligamento periodontal. Tais resultados evidenciam que o transplante dentário autógeno se configura como uma alternativa viável na prática clínica, destacando-se pelo seu custo acessível e pela preservação adequada do elemento dental no seu espaço biológico.

O objetivo da pesquisa é investigar por meio de compreensões interdisciplinares, o caminho bifurcado que a inteligência artificial (IA), e de modo específico, a inteligência artificial generativa traz à sociedade por meio de uma visão inter-relacionada com a inovação e com a sustentabilidade ambiental. A partir do tema da pesquisa, foi elaborada uma abordagem qualitativa, descritiva e exploratória e criada uma estratégia de busca para o Google Acadêmico, onde foram coletados e analisados estudos das mais diversas tipologias documentais que tratam sobre a IA generativa relacionada à sustentabilidade ambiental. A partir da amostra heterogênea coletada percebeu-se que a IA está intrinsecamente relacionada com a inovação e com a sustentabilidade ambiental. Da mesma forma que ela pode ajudar o planeta a partir de suas análises e diagnósticos, ela pode prejudicá-lo aumentando a pegada de carbono e causando alterações em diversos ecossistemas. Há também preocupações sobre a proteção de dados pessoais. No campo da inovação, há receios e inquietações quanto à possibilidade de desemprego e falência que esta tecnologia pode gerar. O campo da IA como disciplina, emergiu em 1956, no entanto, teve grande progresso na década de 2020, As redes neurais profundas e o aumento da capacidade de processamento computacional fez o uso da IA generativa ter um enorme aumento na sociedade. No entanto, seus benefícios e riscos precisam ser analisados de forma profunda para que ela ajude o planeta ao invés de contribuir para sua destruição.
Self-efficacy, Knowledge and Outcomes Expectations Foot Self-care among Diabetic Patients with High-Risk Feet in Jordan
Authors: Najjar Yahya , Finlayson Kathleen , Aljarrah Qusai , Moosa Sameh , ALBashtawy Mohammed , Alkouri Osama , Ababneh Anas
Published: December 2024

Background:

Patients with high-risk feet and diabetes are prone to develop diabetes-related
foot ulcers (DFUs). To prevent DFUs and their costs and impacts on diabetes mellitus (DM)
patients’ productivity and quality of life, patients’ foot self-care (FSC) practices are essential to
screen for DFUs. Our study aimed to assess the self-efficacy and outcome expectations about FSC
and evaluate the knowledge about DFUs among patients with DM in Jordan.

Methods:

A cross-sectional study was conducted with DM patients who attended two diabetes
clinical centers in Jordan in the period from October 2022 to April 2023 in which data were collected
through a self-administered questionnaire developed to assess patients’ understanding of
DFUs, foot care outcomes expectations (FCOE), and self-efficacy about FSC.

Results:

The final sample included data from 107 patients. Patient awareness of DFUs and FCOE
was good, and the level of self-efficacy for FSC was moderate to high. Multiple linear regression
revealed that age was negatively associated with lower self-efficacy for FSC (β = -0.22, p = 0.03)
and both confidence (self-efficacy) in FSC and living arrangements (i.e., living with family) were
positively associated with higher FCOE (β = 0.19, p = 0.04 and β = 0.39, p <0.001, respectively).
Diagnosis of renal failure, diagnosis of retinopathy, elevated levels of glycated hemoglobin, and
the settings in which the patient is receiving care for DM were positively associated with an understanding
of DFUs. Both age and history of heart attacks and coronary artery disease were negatively
associated with realizing DFUs (β = -0.26, p = 0.007, and β = -0.18, p = 0.045, respectively).

Conclusion:

Patients with diabetes mellitus in Jordan have good FCOE, good awareness of DFUs,
and a moderate degree of self-efficacy to execute FSC. Health education and self-efficacy programs
should focus on older adults with a history of heart attacks to boost their understanding of
DFUs and raise their sense of self-efficacy around FSC.

Background:

Improving medication adherence plays a crucial role in preventing adverse
complications of type 2 diabetes.

Objectives:

This study aimed to determine the effect of a health education program on knowledge,
medication adherence, and HbA1c in rural patients with type 2 diabetes.

Methods:

This experimental study was conducted in Ilam County, Iran. Participants were selected
via multistage cluster sampling and randomly assigned to either the intervention group (n=43) or
the control group (n=42). The intervention group underwent a one-month educational program
based on self-regulation theory, consisting of 12 sessions, while the control group received no educational
intervention. Data were collected at baseline, three months, and six months using a diabetes
knowledge test (DKT), the Iranian version of the Morisky Medication Adherence Scale-8
(IVMMAS-8), and laboratory measurements of HbA1c. Statistical analysis was performed using
SPSS version 16, employing chi-square tests, independent sample t-tests, repeated-measures ANOVA,
and Bonferroni correction at a significance level of 0.05.

Results:

After 3 and 6 months, the intervention group showed significant improvements in diabetes
knowledge and medication adherence and a significant reduction in HbA1c levels compared
to the control group (p<0.001). No significant changes were observed in the control group over
time (p>0.05).

Conclusion:

This study demonstrated that health education based on self-regulation theory can effectively
increase knowledge, improve treatment adherence, and decrease HbA1c levels in rural
patients with type 2 diabetes.

A Decade of Prostate Intervention Robots: Systematic Review
Authors: Zhang Weixi , Yu Jiaxing
Published: December 2024

The image-guided prostate intervention robot can assist surgeons in performing minimally
invasive intervention procedures. It has the advantage of overcoming the disadvantages of a
traditional surgeon's hand tremor and dependence on the need for an experienced surgeon, improving
the intervention precision, and reducing the hazards caused by normal soft tissues due to surgical
precision errors compared to traditional intervention procedures. In the design of prostate intervention
robots, structural design, materials, actuators, and compatibility issues should be considered.
Based on the above considerations, a representative literature of the last decade was selected
for review.
Patents and articles on image-guided prostate intervention robots published in the last 10 years
(2013-2023)were searched in several electronic databases, focusing on keywords (structural design,
puncture accuracy, image compatibility, actuator) for screening.
We retrieved a total of 26 prostate intervention robots guided by different images, classified them
by US, MRI, MRI-US and CT, selected representative robots guided by different image modalities
for review and tabulated them for comparison, and finally boldly predicted that the future direction
will be prostate robots guided by MRI-US images.
Image-guided prostate intervention robots can improve the deficiencies of conventional intervention
procedures. In the future how to improve the intervention accuracy will be the primary
problem of all intervention robots, through structural design, materials, actuators, and image compatibility
issues have been improved.

Caffeine-degrading bacteria are organisms capable of utilizing caffeine as a carbon and nitrogen source. Acinetobacter gerneri KAFS 47 is known to possess the ability to degrade caffeine. The type of carbon source present in the growth medium influences the growth pattern and the caffeine degradation capabilities of caffeine-degrading bacteria. The objective of this study was to ascertain the growth pattern of A. gerneri KAFS 47 and to analyze the pattern of caffeine degradation by A. gerneriKAFS 47 in growth media following the addition of caffeine during the logarithmic phase. The research methodology encompasses the following steps: 1.) Constructing a growth curve for A. gerneri KAFS 47 using M9 supplemented with 2.5 g/L glucose, M9 supplemented with 2.5 g/L caffeine, M9 supplemented with 2.5 g/L glucose with an additional 2.5 g/L caffeine introduced midway through the logarithmic phase (12 hours), and M9 supplemented with 2.5 g/L glucose with an added 5 g/L caffeine at the midpoint of the logarithmic phase (12 hours); and 2.) developing a caffeine degradation curve for A. gerneri KAFS 47. The addition of caffeine during the logarithmic phase at concentrations of 2.5 g/L and 5 g/L enhanced the logarithmic growth phase of A. gerneriKAFS 47 in media with a glucose carbon source. Notably, the degradation of caffeine by A. gerneri KAFS 47 was observed to be slower in media containing glucose with added caffeine (2.5 g/L and 5 g/L) compared to media where caffeine served as the sole carbon source.

Authors: Galeano Escucha Luis Alberto
Published: December 2024

Objetivo: Este artículo tiene como objetivo analizar la literatura sobre fenómenos migratorios en Colombia a lo largo de su historia, identificando factores que han influido en la migración. Metodología: Se abordan categorías de análisis como la migración interna, eldesplazamiento forzado, la inmigración y la diáspora, así como el impacto de la colonización y los movimientos campo-ciudad. Primeramente, se explora de manera genérica una aproximación al estudio de las migraciones como elemento de construcción conceptual, en un segundo momento, se hace un estudio de la migración en América Latina y cómo Colombia escapa de los flujos migratorios de finales del siglo XIX y principios del XX. Finalmente, se realiza el estudio de la migración propiamente en Colombia, analizando las colonizaciones, los movimientos campo-ciudad, el desplazamiento forzado, la inmigración, la diáspora y los factores de las relaciones migratorias con Venezuela. Conclusiones: Se destaca la necesidad de una interdisciplinariedad en los enfoques de estudio, considerando aspectos socioeconómicos, culturales y políticos que afectan la movilidad poblacional. Se evidencia que Colombia ha pasado de ser un país emisor a receptor de migrantes, especialmente en elcontexto de la crisis venezolana.
A Survey on Software Requirements Engineering in Information Technology Institutions
Authors: Akbar Muhammad Tulus , Siregar Maria Ulfah
Published: December 2024

Requirements engineering is a crucial phase in software development. In theory, requirements gathering should follow structured and systematic steps to ensure all requirements are complete, consistent, and clear. However, there is a lack of research in real-world contexts, particularly in small and medium-sized software development organizations, which often face challenges related to human resources, infrastructure, and financial constraints. This study aims to explore the practices of requirements engineering in software development agencies. A qualitative approach was used, employing a narrative (descriptive) research design. Data were gathered through interviews, observations, and documentation from six institutions involved in developing various types of software. The data were then analyzed using Yin's Five Cycle content analysis method, supported by Nvivo 12 software. The findings reveal that the time required for gathering requirements varies between institutions (four institutions take 1 week to 1 month, two take 1 to 3 months, and two take over 3 months). Regarding the analysts' backgrounds, all institutions consider requirements elicitation a critical stage in software development, leading them to hire analysts with IT educational backgrounds, most of whom possess significant work experience. This is further evidenced by the fact that all institutions consider staff experience when forming requirements analysis teams and assigning senior staff to specific roles. There is limited practical variation in the sources of requirements and elicitation techniques. All institutions rely on objectives, domain knowledge, stakeholders, and the operational environment as sources of requirements. As for elicitation techniques, they primarily use interviews, facilitated meetings, and document reviews.

Moodle is an open-source learning management system (LMS) or e-learning platform that is designed to help educators create online courses with various features to facilitate learning. Interest in this research area has increased significantly in recent years, leading to an increasing number of schools employing this LMS. In the early stages of the development process, schools need to gain insights into user needs and generate new ideas for designing and developing interactive LMS. In this light, Design Thinking (DT) is viewed as an important approach. This study aimed to design and develop an online learning system based on Moodle to facilitate online learning for elementary school students. The objectives were to (1) design a system diagram, system architecture, and functional structure for facilitating online learning and (2) develop an interactive LMS using Moodle. The research methodology was conducted following the DT process. An evaluation was made to assess the usability of the system using the Computer System Usability Questionnaire (CSUQ). Across dimensions such as system quality, information quality, and interface quality, scores ranged between 5 and 7, highlighting a positive user perception across various aspects of the evaluation. These findings, therefore, offer practical guidance for educational stakeholders in adopting and promoting Moodle-based LMS.
