Evaluation Of Coffee Supply Chain Performance Using Value Chain Analysis And Fishbone Diagram (Case Study On Coffee Farmers In East Java)
Coffee has grown into a high-value commodity in international trade, contributing significantly to global GDP and creating millions of jobs worldwide. This study aims to analyze the value chain of the coffee industry in East Java, identify the root cause of the low margins obtained by coffee farmers, and provide recommendations to increase their income and efficiency in the supply chain. The methodology used included primary data collection through in-depth interviews with coffee supply chain actors in East Java and analysis using fishbone diagrams to identify factors causing low margins of coffee farmers, such as limited market access, inadequate processing equipment, and conventional drying methods. The results of the study show that coffee farmers get the lowest profit margin, less than 10%, due to low efficiency and productivity. The recommendations included digital technology training, financial assistance for equipment, and low-interest credit programs for coffee farmers. The implementation of this recommendation is expected to increase the efficiency, productivity, and profit margins of coffee farmers in East Java, increasing their competitiveness in the global market. The study also highlights the need for multi-stakeholder support and long-term evaluation to measure the effectiveness of proposed interventions.
 
Business Strategy Development for Drilling Cutting’s Waste Industry using Ansoff Matrix: JEL Classification: M10, M21, L21, Q53, C44
The drilling cutting’s waste industry in Indonesia still facing major challenges in handling the Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) content, requiring companies to adopt more robust business strategy. This research develop a business growth strategy for PT. GPS using integrated framework combining Business Model Canvas, SWOT-TOWS, Analytic Network Process (ANP) and Ansoff Matrix. The existing business model was analyzed to identify structural gaps, followed by SWOT-TOWS formulatioan and ANP weighting using expert judgements. The ANP result indicate the differentiation based strategies strengthening service quality and reliability (ST2) and improving customer retention (ST1) are to priorities. These strategies align with Product Development of Ansoff Matrix, while technology adoption (SO2) support Market Penetration.The new business model integrated these priorities into value prepositions, key activities, and revenue streams. Economic feasibility analysis showed positive NPV, IRR, BCR across three scenarios, confirmung the financial viability of the strategic directions. The integrated approach provides actionable strategic recommendations to enhance competitiveness and longterm sustainability
Customer Satisfaction Analysis in the Healthcare Industry Using KANO Method and Importance Performance Analysis
Customer satisfaction is one of the most important aspects in the business world, especially in the service sector because it can increase customer loyalty, and create a positive image for the company and ultimately contribute to long-term success. This study was conducted at MEDCORP, a company engaged in the healthcare industry, which seeks to increase sales by improving customer service. To measure and customer satisfaction, this study uses 5 Dimensions of service quality, namely reliability, responsiveness, assurance, empathy and direct evidence. The methods used are the IPA and KANO methods. The IPA method uses data from customers to evaluate how important each attribute is and how well the company meets those expectations. The KANO method identifies attributes that can increase customer satisfaction if added or improved. This combination provides a more comprehensive understanding of customer needs and product performance that can be used as a reference for companies in achieving the service desired by customers, so that it can increase sales and customer satisfaction. Based on the results obtained, it is known that there are 23 negative gaps, so further analysis is carried out to determine the strategy set. The author makes three types of strategies that can be implemented, namely the main, middle, and final priority strategies based on the IPA-KANO integration classification. Through this research, it is expected to be used as a consideration for business actors or managers in determining improvements in service quality through continual improvement of MEDCORP's performance so that service quality and output become better
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
