SISTEM PENDUKUNG KEPUTUSAN DALAM MENENTUKAN JURUSAN DI SEKOLAH SMK NEGERI KOTA BATAM MENGGUNAKAN METODE SIMPLE ADDITIVE WEIGHTING
The selection of academic majors at vocational high schools (SMK), particularly at SMK Negeri 7 Batam, often faces challenges in aligning students’ preferences with their academic capabilities. This issue arises due to the current New Student Admission Selection (SPMB) system, which allows students to select three program options, yet only the first choice is prioritized, resulting in frequent mismatches in placement when competition is high. To resolve this, a web-based Decision Support System (DSS) is developed using the Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) method to evaluate and recommend suitable majors based on academic performance and student interest. The system is built with Visual Studio Code as the development environment, Laravel as the PHP framework, and Unified Modeling Language (UML) to design system workflows and structures. The decision-making process involves score normalization, criteria weighting, and ranking of alternatives to produce optimal recommendations. Accessible through a web browser, the system supports students, teachers, and admission committees by providing a more efficient and accurate tool for academic major placement. Testing results demonstrate the system’s effectiveness in improving decision accuracy and supporting academic guidance processes within the vocational school environment
PERANCANGAN SISTEM ABSENSI BERBASIS MONITORING MENGGUNAKAN TEKNOLOGI FACE RECOGNITION
Employee attendance is a crucial factor in determining company performance and productivity. Therefore, an accurate and efficient attendance system is needed to ensure compliance with working hours. This study aims to design a monitoring-based attendance system using Face Recognition technology at PT. Global Benua Bajatama. The technology is used to automatically detect and recognize employee faces. The research method applied is qualitative, involving system design using Unified Modeling Language (UML), database design, and testing the accuracy of facial detection as well as analyzing the system’s effectiveness. The results show that the face detection accuracy ranges from 80% to 95% under optimal conditions. These conditions include employees not wearing facial accessories such as masks, sunglasses, or safety helmets, and maintaining a face-to-camera distance of about 40–50 cm. Under these circumstances, the system can detect and recognize faces quickly and accurately, producing attendance data that meets the required specifications. The implementation of this system improves the efficiency of the attendance process and reduces the potential for errors compared to manual attendance recording

NAVIGATING VICTORIAN CITY SPACE: ARTIFICIALITY IN AUSTEN’S NORTHANGER ABBEY AND GASKELL’S NORTH AND SOUTH
Abstract
This research investigates the themes of artificiality and social alienation in Jane Austen's Northanger Abbey and Elizabeth Gaskell's North and South, examining how urban settings in Bath and Milton encapsulate the social complexities of Victorian society during the Industrial Revolution. Employing a comparative literary analysis, grounded in urban and social theory as articulated by experts such as Simmel and Parkins, this study highlights how city spaces both reflect and reinforce societal constraints and individual behaviours. Data was gathered through close readings of the primary texts, supported by secondary sources, and analysed to explore patterns of social interaction and urban influence on character development. The findings reveal how Bath’s societal superficiality shapes Catherine Morland’s experience, while Milton’s industrial harshness impacts characters like Margaret Hale and Mr. Thornton, illustrating the varied ways urban settings foster artificiality and exacerbate social divides. This research contributes to understanding Victorian literature's critique of societal structures, emphasizing the value of authenticity and human connection amid social pressures.Penelitian ini membahas penggambaran keartifisialan dan keterasingan sosial dalam novel Northanger Abbey karya Jane Austen dan novel North and South karya Elizabeth Gaskell, dengan latar kota-kota di era Victoria. Melalui analisis perbandingan, studi ini mengeksplorasi bagaimana setting urban di Bath dan Milton mencerminkan kompleksitas interaksi sosial selama Revolusi Industri. Dalam Northanger Abbey, Bath menggambarkan superfisialitas masyarakat, di mana norma sosial yang kaku dan tekanan untuk menyesuaikan diri menciptakan keartifisialan dalam hubungan. Austen mengkritik norma-norma ini melalui perjalanan Catherine Morland, yang menunjukkan ketegangan antara keaslian pribadi dan harapan sosial. Sementara itu, penggambaran Milton oleh Gaskell dalam North and South menyoroti kerasnya realitas industrialisasi, di mana kesenjangan ekonomi dan perbedaan kelas memperparah keterasingan sosial. Karakter seperti Margaret Hale dan Mr. Thornton menghadapi tantangan ini, yang mengungkapkan bagaimana lingkungan perkotaan memengaruhi perilaku dan dinamika sosial. Penelitian ini menekankan pentingnya kejujuran dan integritas dalam membangun hubungan manusia yang sejati di tengah tekanan sosial pada masa itu. Pada akhirnya, studi ini menunjukkan bagaimana Austen dan Gaskell menggunakan latar kota untuk mengkritik keartifisialan dan keterasingan sosial yang ada dalam masyarakat Victoria di Inggris, serta menawarkan wawasan tentang tema keaslian dan hubungan antarmanusia yang lebih luas
