Quality of service is a significant part of formulating a composing of web services to satisfy the user’s request, especially when several services exist and have been implemented in the same field and functionality. The selection process of web services among many options can be taken based on the quality of service considerations, fitness parameters,…

This study has two objectives: to determine the level of readiness of first-year undergraduate students at the Universitas Indonesia (UI) and to investigate student’s perception of MPKT (Integrated Character Development course) lecturers’ readiness to manage online learning class. Proportional cluster sampling was applied, and 1466 freshmen from thirteen faculties participated. Data clustering and imputation of…

The web documents are automatically interacting to discover the information by web mining, which is one of the applications of Cloud Computing (CC) technologies. These documents may be in the form of structured, semi-structured, or unstructured formats. In current web technologies, the Semantic Web is an extension for better enabling the people and computers to…

In recent years water treatment methods under pressurized systems have been considered as the optimum high-rate filtration techniques. Unpressurized-slow sand filtration can be the cheapest and most efficient method, among others. This research aims to test the performance of a reliable seawater filtration system, using three different iterations. The filters have been designed considering many…

Worldwide, the epidemiological situation is constantly changing and with the exponential increase in the number of confirmed coronavirus cases, the number of health care workers has decreased significantly and this is due to the direct and daily contact of patients. One of the major challenges of the last few months is to prevent the spread…

This paper describes a qualitative research design adopted in this study guided by deployment of a Grounded Theory (GT) methodology which was deployed to synthesize literature on technology adoption and digital transformation with an objective of developing theory. The philosophical worldview adopted was interpretivism/constructivist of a qualitative grounded theory inductive (theory building) approach where secondary…

Effective Fetal Electrocardiogram (FECG) Extraction provides medical workers with precise knowledge for monitoring fetal health condition during gestational age. However, Fetal ECG Extraction still remains a challenge as the signal is weak and contaminated with noises of different kinds, more significantly maternal ECG. In this work, a new Moth Flame optimization algorithm (MFO)-based adaptive filter…

Rated a high-risk cyber-attack type, Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) has become a cause for concern to cyber security experts. Detecting the presence of APT in order to mitigate this attack has been a major challenge as successful attacks to large organizations still abound. Our approach combines static rule anomaly detection through pattern recognition and machine…

This paper aims to measure the acceptance level of Indonesian customers to JD.ID X retail and to reveal the driving factors of behavioral intention to shop at the retail. JD.ID X is new retail that implements a new shopping technology called Just walk-out technology (JWOT) also known as retail without a cashier. JWOT is one…

Distribution is the main activity in integrated product supply chain management. In the pharmaceutical industry, the process of drug distribution is important because of the handling, storage, and distribution of medicinal products with good standards and quality. The problem that occurs in the pharmaceutical industry is the circulation of counterfeit drugs by related parties, for…

Forecasting the gold price movement’s volatility has essential applications in areas such as risk management, options pricing, and asset allocation. The multivariate model is expected to generate more accurate forecasts than univariate models in time series data like gold prices. Multivariate analysis is based on observation and analysis of more than one statistical variable at…

The wide acceptance of the semantic web language RDF for ontologies creation in various application fields has led to the emergence of numerous RDF data processing solutions, the so-called triplestores, for the storage of RDF data and its querying using the RDF query language SPARQL. Such solutions are however developed under various perspectives and on…

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a promising trend in ship energy management systems (EMS). The motivations of this work are designing and implementation of an intelligent energy management system for ship’s electric power system based on an adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) and the ship power source is an environmental friend system consists of proton exchange…

The control of the air-fuel ratio (AFR) is critical for the efficiency of the combustion. This is for achieving the better performance of the plant and result in high output energy. Computation of the AFR is gone considering the composition of the fuel regardless of the inlet pressure, density ad temperature of both fuel and…

In the phosphate industry, sulfuric acid is a key compound in phosphoric acid and fertilizer production. Industrially, the sulfuric acid H2SO4 is made generally in a sequence of three main steps: burning liquid sulfur with air, catalytic oxidation of sulfur dioxide SO2 to sulfur trioxide SO3, and formation of H2SO4 by the reaction of H2O…

This study attempts to develop theoretical criteria for verifying the morality of the actions of artificial intelligent agents, using the Turing test as an archetype and inspiration. This study develops ethical criteria established based on Kohlberg’s moral development theory that might help determine the types of moral acts committed by artificial intelligent agents. Subsequently, it…

This paper describes an experimental setup that employs ultrasound to scan an area. This method utilizes ultrasonic waves to scan the surface of a submerged object in a water-coupled medium. A pulse-echo mode is used, and quantitative data are collected at various positions using a two- dimensional automated table. A microcontroller controls the motion of…

In underwater photographs are look like low-quality images, the main reason is behind that due to attenuation of the propagated light, absorption and scattering effect. The absorption significantly reduces the light energy, while the dispersion causes changes in the light propagation path. They result in foggy appearance and degradation of contrast, causing misty distant objects.…

Today, the costs of most Renewable Energy (RE) technologies especially hydrogen energy technologies such as fuel cells, are still beyond the means of poorer economies in developing countries. Hence, there is little public awareness and local expertise in RE in these countries and even lesser in hydrogen energy. To solve this problem, it is important…

In this paper, a new polynomial shear deformation theory for the static flexural analysis of anisotropic rectangular thick plate was developed. The plate which carries a uniformly distributed load is clamped on the three edges, and free of support on the other edge (CCFC), is analyzed to determine the in-plane displacement, vertical displacement, bending moment,…

A sensor fusion concept integrating the optical and microfabricated eddy-current sensor for the non-destructive testing of the grinding burn is reported. For evaluation, reference grinding burn with varying degrees are fabricated on 42CrMo4 tool steel cylinder. The complementary sensing nature of the proposed sensors for the non-destructive testing of the grinding burn is successfully achieved,…

A very large number of workers is occupationally exposed to Optical Radiation (OR) worldwide, while indeed nowadays an exposure to Electromagnetic fields (EMF) can occur in almost all workplaces. OR origin can be natural, including the most relevant source, i.e. the sun, or artificial, that can be further classified in incoherent and coherent, i.e. the…
