Authors: Lestari Friska Rieny , Utari Nisa Rahmaniyah , Irfan Muhammad 
Published: May 2023

Avocado is one of the good plant commodities in Indonesia, avocado production in Indonesia itself is quite abundant and has been widely used for various product processing. This can be seen from the production of avocados in Indonesia in 2021 reaching 660,830 tons, the part consumed from avocados is only the flesh, while the skin and seeds are used as waste. The percentage of avocado seed weight is about 20% of the total weight of the fruit. So to reduce the amount of avocado seed waste, the author conducted an experiment on avocado seeds that had been processed into flour and added them to the product that the author would study, namely choux paste. Meanwhile, the antioxidants found in avocado seeds have potential as natural food additivies for food products. In this study the addition of avocado seeds aims to determine the effect of the addition of taste and public acceptance of choux paste from avocado seed flour. The author chose choux paste in this study because choux products can be combined with various kinds of fillings that have a sweet taste, so they can overcome the bitter taste of avocado seed flour. This study was conducted to analyze the level of preference (taste, aroma, texture and taste) of choux pasta through organoleptic tests. This research is an experimental research with 4 treatments of avocado seed flour, namely control (P0), 20% (P1), 30% (P2) and 50% (P3). The subjects of this study were 40 non-expert panelists and 5 expert panelists. The results of this study indicate that the best formula for avocado seed flour choux paste favored by the second panel is the addition of 20% avocado seed flour. The results of the average value obtained from 4 aspects (color, aroma, taste and texture) are with a total score of 39.8 expert panelists with an average of 3.3 which belongs to the like category. Meanwhile, the total score of non-expert panelists is 41.2 with an average of 3.4 which is included in the like category.

The purpose of this study was to see the significant difference in mean scores on students' cognitive abilities between the control class given conventional learning and the experimental class given the STEM-based PBL learning model, and to see the effect of the STEM-based PBL learning model on the cognitive abilities of students in SMP Negeri 1 Basa Ampek Balai Tapan.
This type of research is quasi-experimental (Quasi Experimental Research). The research design used was Non Equivalent Control Group Design. The population in this study were students of class VIII SMP Negeri 1 Basa Ampek Balai Tapan. The sample in this study was 30 people for each control and experimental class. The sampling technique used purposive sampling. In this study, there are two sample classes, namely the experimental class and the control class. The instrument used in this study was a multiple choice written test. The data analysis technique used is the similarity of two means to determine differences in students' cognitive abilities.
The results showed an increase in cognitive abilities in the experimental class. This is evidenced by the average posttest score of the experimental class which is higher than the control class and is supported by the hypothesis test carried out by the t-test, namely tcount (3.85)> ttable (1.67) at the real level α = 0 , 05 where dk = 60. Thus H0 is rejected and Ha is accepted. This shows that there is a significant effect of STEM-based PBL learning models on students' cognitive abilities.
APVNFC: Adaptive Placement of Virtual Network Function Chains
Authors: Umrao Brajesh Kumar , Yadav Dharmendar Kumar 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
Designing efficient and flexible approaches for placement of Virtual Network Function (VNF) chains is the main success of Network Function Virtualization (NFV). However, most current work considers the constant bandwidth and flow processing requirements while deploying the VNFs in the network. The constant (immutable) flow processing and bandwidth requirements become critical limitations in an NFV-enabled network with highly dynamic traffic flow. Therefore, bandwidth requirements and available resources of the Point-of-Presence (PoP) in the network change constantly. We present an adaptive model for placing VNF chains to overcome this limitation. At the same time, the proposed model minimizes the number of changes (i.e., re-allocation of VNFs) in the network. The experimental evaluation shows that the adaptive model can deliver stable network services. Moreover, it reduces the significant number of changes in the network and ensures flow performance.
Optimized Parameter Tuning in a Recurrent Learning Process for Shoplifting Activity Classification
Authors: Ansari Mohd Aquib , Singh Dushyant Kumar 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
From recent past, shoplifting has become a serious concern for business in both small/big shops and stores. It customarily involves the buyer concealing store items inside clothes/bags and then leaving the store without payment. Unfortunately, no cost-effective solution is available to overcome this problem. We, therefore intend to build an expert monitoring system to automatically recognize shoplifting events in megastores/shops by recognizing object-stealing actions of humans. The method proposed utilizes a deep convolutional-based InceptionV3 architecture to mine the prominent features from video clips. These features are used to custom Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) network to discriminate human stealing actions in video sequences. Optimizing recurrent learning classifier using different modeling parameters such as sequence length and batch size is a genuine contribution of this work. The experiments demonstrate that the system proposed has achieved an accuracy of 89.36% on the synthesized dataset, which comparatively outperforms other existing methods.

Published: May 2023

Abstract
Vibro-compaction is a recent technique for treating soils in the mass, thus improving its mediocre geo mechanical properties. In addition, this treatment makes it possible to minimize the risk of liquefaction, it is closely linked to the grain size of the soil to be treated. The soil underlying the construction project of the port of Nador in Morocco requires treatment to improve its characteristics and in particular to minimize the risk of liquefaction, given that Morocco is in a collision zone, near the border between the two African-Eurasian plates that are seismically active (earthquake in the city of Al Hoceima in 2004 in Morocco). The purpose of this work is to test the different parameters of vibro-compaction (mesh, vibration frequency, height of passes, duration of compaction) necessary to obtain the objectives set for the work (relative density ≥ 77 %), through the carrying out of an embarkation test on the substitute sands of the main breakwater of this Port. The in situ control tests (CPT) of the main dam, which were carried out by the substitution sand, made it possible to confirm the results of the test bench. These results stipulate on the one hand that the vibro-compaction mesh of 4.00 m is the most optimal and on the other hand that the relative density is an important parameter of liquefaction control.

Published: May 2023

Abstract

Objective. Chronic kidney disease (CKD), metabolic syndrome (MetS) and insulin resistance (IR) are the major health problems associated with the increasing risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular complications.

Methods. This cross-sectional study included 209 CKD patients of stage (3–5) on conservative treatment to assess the usage of lipid accumulation product (LAP) and visceral adiposity index (VAI) to predict both MetS and IR in CKD patients.

Results. In males, from the anthropometric measurements, LAP was the best predictor of MetS with 94.4% sensitivity and 77.8% specificity. VAI was the next one with 83.3% sensitivity and 69.4% specificity. The same results were obtained in females. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve showed LAP as the best predictor of MetS with the highest 92.6% sensitivity and 60.6% specificity followed by VAI with 83.6% sensitivity and 83.6% specificity. In addition, LAP was a good predictor of IR with more than 70% sensitivity in both males and females. VAI as a predictor of IR showed 62.2% sensitivity in males and 69.9% in females.

Conclusion. The present data indicate that both LAP and VAI can serve as predictors of MetS and IR in CKD patients, whereas LAP is the best anthropometric measure to predict MetS and LAP is more sensitive and specific than VAI in IR predicting in both males and females.

For this purpose, this paper presents the techniques of data acquisition, their processing and a first attempt to refer to this type of entity in an existing land register.
Recent Examination of Energy Markets Volatility
Authors: Jude Octavian , Turgeman Avraham , Boţoc Claudiu 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
The main aim of the paper is to examine if the energy market (crude oil, gas and electricity) realized volatility exhibits a symmetric or an asymmetric behaviour, for certain commodities over the period May 2012 – August 2022. We considered this time frame for data collection because it is ensuing after the extensively researched period of the financial crises that started in 2007. We took into consideration the STOXX Europe 600 index representing large, mid and small capitalization companies across 17 countries from the European Union. Subsidiary we want to examine if there are similarities in term of realized volatility between energy markets and equity markets. For energy markets the results are consistent with the leverage hypothesis of the asymmetric volatility, i.e. negative and positive returns with the same magnitude have different impact on volatility. Furthermore the volatility is more sensitive to its lagged values in the market place than it is to new information. In addition, for the entire period volatility is asymmetric for both energy and equity markets, but there are different sub-periods with different results. These results reinforce the diversification principle that must be considered in portfolio and risk management process.
Digital Transition and Readjustment on EU Tourism Industry
Authors: Sánchez-Bayón Antonio 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
This is a heterodox review of Political Economy, Macroeconomics and Business Management on the readjustment effect in the tourism sector due to the impact of the digital transition and its aggravation with the COVID-19 crisis and the Ukraine war. A synthesis of the paradigmatic change with the digital economy and how it affects labor and professional relations is proposed, requiring a transformation of the economic system and the production process. Attention is focused on the tourism sector and its paradox in the European Union: despite its growing importance, however, its recognition and transformation is insufficient. This paradox is intensified in the Spanish case, where more European recovery funds are being allocated and yet the vulnerability of its SMEs and tourism entrepreneurs is growing.

Abstract. Due to the implementation of distance learning policy in Indonesia, the usual class is suspended as a response to the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak. Since then, the demand of innovative teaching involving the use of computer assisted learning tools increases progressively. Undeniable, a distance learning scheme has not been able to outperform a conventional face-to-face classroom learning. One of the problems was encountered in Production Écrite Elimentaire (hereafter PEE) class, where lecturers could not monitor students’ writing progress directly. This study aims at developing a Padlet based writing course by integrating local culture using Systemic Functional Linguistic Genre Based pedagogy (SFL-GBP) adopting ADDIE approach. In order to achieve this objective, three lecturers and 32 students were involved to validate the result of Padlet product. This research used two kinds of instruments i.e., an open-ended questionnaire and an experts’ rubric. The open-ended questionnaire was used to identify students’ needs in PEE course, and the experts’ rubric was used to examine Padlet by regarding the appropriateness of material and language, the procedure of SFL-GPB, and the media. The overall mean scores of the experts' judgement towards the Padlet feasibility shows significant figures, i.e., the material aspects gained 3.7, the appropriateness was 3.8, and the media reached 3.7. On the other hand, the results of the students' opinion analysis also show a positive figure where the mean score for material as well as language aspects were 3.9, and media aspect had 3.75 mean score. The findings. The findings of this study were expected to have a further contribution to the development of comprehensive teaching syllabuses, materials, as well as lesson plans for French-language classrooms in the university, especially integrating local culture and the SFL Pedagogy approach.

Published: May 2023

The existence of civil servants in the National Police institution is something unique and distinctive because in the National Police organization, the position of civil servants is in one organization with the National Police in all units of the National Police in charge of carrying out administrative activities and tasks that require special expertise to support the activities of the National Police. For civil servants of the National Police, personnel regulations apply to the National Police and personnel regulations regulated by BKN. The purpose of this study is to analyze the causes of the lack of optimal implementation of career patterns for civil servants in the Human Resources Staff (SSDM) of the National Police and provide a description related to career pattern models that are more professional and appropriate for civil servants in SSDM Polri which can be used as a career pattern model for National Police Civil Servants. This research uses a mix method approach, quantitative data collection which is then deepened qualitatively through interviews, observations and collection of supporting documents. The result is that the career pattern of civil servants in the Human Resources Staff Work Unit is constrained by human resource management governance in the aspects of planning, organizing, procuring and directing, developing and integrating. A more provective career pattern model obtained from the results of discussion and analysis in this study is the placement of civil servants in predetermined functional and structural positions, the implementation of internships for employees who newly recruited, implementation of performance evaluation for promotion followed by attending education and training in accordance with the field of work, providing space and opportunities to actualize themselves to the duties and responsibilities that given in order to be promoted to the top posotion intended for civil servant after attending a series of education and training for competency development.

Sea urchins were ecologically and economically important biota, but scientific information on sea urchins is still very minimal and there is no ongoing monitoring. The purpose of this study was to determine the density, abundance, community structure, and distribution patterns of sea urchins in the intertidal zone of Karanrang Island, Pangkep Regency. The research in June-July 2022 was carried out at high and low tide using three transects measuring 1 x 1 m consisting of four plots measuring 50 x 50 cm. Determination of stations based on information from local residents to get observation stations based on tidal conditions. The results showed that three species of sea urchins from two families were found, namely Diadema setosum, Echinothrix calamaris, and Tripneustes gratilla. The species of D. setosum was found to be very abundant (97.3-97.6%) and tended to be more abundant during high tide than during low tide. The index of diversity and uniformity of porcupine species is low (H' = 0.130-0.142 and E = 0.118-0.129). The species dominance index was in the range of 0.946-0.953 indicating high dominance of D. setosum. Spatially, D. setosum had a uniform distribution pattern, whereas E. calamaris and T. gratilla were distributed in clusters. Further spatial and temporal research is needed to comprehensively determinant the conditions of the sea urchin population on Karanrang Island, Pangkep Regency.

Stunting is currently one of the problems in the world, including Indonesia. According to WHO (2017), Indonesia is the third country with the highest stunting problem in the Southeast Asia region. Tegal Regency, Central Java is one of the areas in Indonesia that has a stunting problem, especially in Muncanglarang Village which has a variety of potential resources. The potential in Muncanglarang Village can be used as processed food such as supplementary feeding program (SFP) from ingredients that are easy to find in the village such as corn to make it easier for parents to provide additional food for toddlers at affordable prices. This community service activity begins with socialization, followed by demonstrations, validation, interviews, measurements, and mapping of stunting toddler locations. The result of this activity is that 20 pregnant women know about stunting and how to prevent it, mothers with toddlers know the importance of PMT and can process corn into PMT. An update on stunting data has been carried out at the puskesmas to assist the government in recording public health status. Validation was also carried out in conjunction with digital mapping to describe the location of the suspected stunted child's home using Google My Maps. The activity has achieved the goal of preventing and overcoming stunting, through providing information to pregnant women, updating and validating data and providing supplementary food.
