An Overview of The Traditional Use of Sago for Sago-based Food Industry in Indonesia
Authors: Metaragakusuma Andi Patiware , Katsuya Osozawa , Bai Hu 
Published: February 2016

<p>The use of sago had been practiced traditionally since ancient times by people who live in sago producing areas in Indonesia, and it had been able to gradually create sago-based food industry. As a result, sago has become an important raw material. Nevertheless, most sago-based food industry occurs naturally without an integrated comprehensive plan. The processing skills are inherited from the ancestors and handed down to the next generation continuously. In addition, there are many descriptions of the traditional way to prepare foods from sago. Surely, the wider utilization of sago can be a catalyst for rural industrial development. Thus, this paper is intended to deliver information about the diversity of traditional use of sago for sago-based food industry from all the major sago-producing areas in Indonesia in order to focus the farmers`, entrepreneurs’, and Indonesian government`s attention. It is predicted that sago demands in the future will increase. The sustainability of sago as a raw material for sago-based industry, however, will not be discussed in this paper. Further studies on that is needed</p><strong>Keywords:</strong>Sago-based food Industry, Sago Palm, Sago Starch, The use of Sago. <p> </p>

Published: February 2016

<p>Ehime Prefecture is one of the main citrus fruit producing regions in Japan. As many as 20 major citrus varieties are cultivated in Ehime annually. The harvest of citrus fruit in a large scale has brought the consequences in the postharvest deterioration. It could be caused by many factors, including metabolic changes, (biochemical changes associated with respiratory metabolism, ethylene biosynthesis and action, and compositional changes), growth and development (anatomical and morphological changes), physical injuries, water loss, physiological disorders, and pathological To reduce these losses, it is suggested to apply proper handling methods or postharvest technologies that delay senescence and maintain the best possible quality. There are some handling methods or postharvest technologies that can be used to maintain the quality of citrus fruit, such as: modified atmosphere packaging (MAP), controlled atmosphere storage (CAS), coatings, hot water treatment, and etc. In this paper, analytic hierarchy process (AHP) is used to select the best postharvest method for preserving citrus fruit in Ehime. The ability of the AHP to provide selection of the postharvest technology with process flexibility like criteria selection, technology selection and criteria weightages allows its use by students, researchers, entrepreneurs, technology facilitators, policy makers, etc.</p><p><strong>Keywords</strong>: Analytic hierarchy process, postharvest, citrus. </p>

<p>Demand forecasting is very important for the planning process. The forecast accuracy affects the efficiency of the procurement, production and delivery processes. Our research has the objective of increasing the sales forecasting accuracy of instant noodles for a case study company in Thailand. Many factors affect the sales of instant noodles, such as promotion, other commodities’ prices, national disaster and production capacity. Thus, we collected historical monthly sales data, analysed the data and their pattern and considered whether the data were irregular due to those factors. After obtaining the forecast data, data intervention by adjustment of the irregular effects was performed in accordance with our experience and judgement. Next, we used the predictor function in the Crystal Ball software to determine the best time series forecasting method for actual and adjusted sales data. Then, we verified the result with the actual sales data for one year. The result showed that the adjustment could increase the sales forecast accuracy by 46.14%, 22.53% and 56.42% for products A, B and C, respectively. In summary, the mean average percentage sales forecast error after adjustment was 6.48%–11.62%, which is better than the current method of forecasting based on experts. </p><p><strong>Keywords</strong>: Instant Noodle; Intervention; Qualitative Forecasting; Sales Adjustment; Time Ser ies Forecasting </p>

The Development Of A Code Of Ethics: An Online Classroom Approach To Making Connections Between Ethical Foundations And The Challenges Presented By Information Technology
Authors: Brooks Rochelle 
Published: February 2016

In today's organizations, ethical challenges relate to areas like fraud, right to privacy for consumers, social responsibility, and trade restrictions. For Information Technology (IT) specifically, these can translate to considerations on how technology is used to violate people’s privacy, how automation leads to job reductions, or how management information and its corresponding systems are used and abused for personal gain. In the last 25 years, we have seen an overwhelming technology infusion affecting business, education, and society. Virtually all areas of our society have been transformed by the usage of technology. The change is important from an ethical perspective in terms of who Information Technology (IT) workers are today and what their tasks are. In the 1980s, IT workers were mainly limited to technical fields, such as programming, data processing, server administration, and phone services. Today, IT workers are integrated into every department of organizations, they function globally, and they have access to a wealth of knowledge and information (Payne & Landry, 2006). With the power and the skills to access such large amounts of data comes the need for ethical employees. Morality of respect doesn’t appear, fully formed, at a particular age. Instead it develops slowly and higher education needs to take a role in this. Higher education, specifically in business schools, needs to take some responsibility in preparing students for the ethical usage of information technology and the underlying information within those systems. In this research investigation, an assignment was provided to students in an online course entitled Ethics and Technology in which they were given the opportunity to develop a code of ethics that focused on key challenge areas in the usage of information technology while at the same time making connections to ethical leaders.

Published: February 2016

This paper reports the results of a study that examined the association of the 120/150-hour education requirement with the number of CPA exam candidates during 1998 and 2008. Data gathered from the NASBA Candidate Performance Reports 1999 and 2009 found no relationship between the number of CPA exam candidates and the education requirements in each of the US jurisdictions. Approximately 48% of the total decline in candidates in 2008 as compared to 1998 occurred in jurisdictions that only required 120 hours of education to sit for the exam in 2008. Approximately 20% of the total decline occurred in jurisdictions that required 150 hours of education in 2008. The 150-hour requirement is not the cause for the decrease in the number of people taking the CPA exam.
