On abstraction refinement for program analyses in Datalog
No full textA central task for a program analysis concerns how to efficiently find a program abstraction that keeps only information relevant for proving properties of interest. We present a new approach for finding such abstractions for program analyses written in Datalog. Our approach is based on counterexample-guided abstraction refinement: when a Datalog analysis run fails using an abstraction, it seeks to generalize the cause of the failure to other abstractions, and pick a new abstraction that avoids a similar failure. Our solution uses a boolean satisfiability formulation that is general, complete, and optimal: it is independent of the Datalog solver, it generalizes the failure of an abstraction to as many other abstractions as possible, and it identifies the cheapest refined abstraction to try next. We show the performance of our approach on a pointer analysis and a typestate analysis, on eight real-world Java benchmark programs
Pengemasan pesan moral analisis framing film emak ingin naik Haji
No full textFilm merupakan saluran komunikasi massa yang paling efektif dalam menyampaikan pesan, karena film dapat memberikan efek baik dari aspek edukatif, afektif, maupun kognitif dengan mudah kepada penonton. Dalam penyampaian pesannya media film tidak hanya sekedar bercerita akan tetapi juga memberikan gambaran dalam kehidupan sosial sebuah komunitas. Begitu juga dengan film Emak Ingin Naik Haji yang menggambarkan kondisi keseharian masyarakat Indonesia, tentang cinta tulus dan tak terbatas antara seorang Ibu dan anaknya. Film Emak Ingin Naik Haji adalah sebuah mega film buah karya Aditya Gumay yang diambil dari cerpen karya Asma Nadia yang berjudul �Emak Ingin Naik Haji�. Cerpen yang diangkat oleh sang Sutradara dari Majalah Noor tersebut kemudian dikembangkan menjadi suatu skenario film Emak Ingin Naik Haji yang judulnya sama persis seperti cerpennya. Film ini mendapat respon positif dari masyarakat dengan jumlah penonton yang luar biasa. Dengan berbagai keunggulan film tersebut, maka penulis melakukan penelitian mendalam pada aspek cerita film khususnya pada naskah film ini, guna memahami isu dan pesan yang sebenarnya hendak disampaikan. Masalah yang ingin diungkap dalam penelitian ini adalah ingin melihat bagaimana isi cerita film yang dibingkai oleh Aditya Gumay sebagai Sutradara film Emak Ingin Naik Haji. Dengan menggunakan analisis framing model Zhongdang Pan dan Gerald M. Kosicki dan menggunakan Teori Agenda Setting Media, dapat ditelaah bagaimana realitas simbolik yang disajikan dalam film Emak Ingin Naik Haji dan bagaimana proses pengemasan pesan oleh Aditya Gumay dalam film ini melalui elemen Sintaksis, Skrip, Tematik, dan Retoris sesuai isu pesan yang ditonjolkan dalam frame-frame yang terdapat dalam cerita film tersebut. Metodologi penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif karena dalam pelaksanaannya lebih dilakukan pada pemaknaan teks. Pengumpulan data melalui wawancara dan dokumentasi, kemudian data-data dianalisis melalui struktur framing model Zhongdang Pan dan Gerald M. Kosicki. Dapat ditarik sebuah kesimpulan, bahwa dengan menganalisa film menggunakan analisis framing dan strukturnya, dapat mengungkap isu pesan yang ingin disampaikan oleh Sutradara kepada penonton. Hasil dari analisis framing film Emak Ingin Naik Haji ini juga dapat ditemukan pesan-pesan yang mengandung unsur kebaikan (pesan moral). Pesan moral yang penulis dapatkan dari hasil analisis yaitu: Naik haji karena kecintaan kepada Allah, Naik haji karena mengedepankan gengsi, dan Naik haji karena tuntutan jabatan

Construction and Demolition Waste as Raw Materials for sustainable Cements
No full textIn 2014 about four billion tonnes of cement were produced [CEMBUREAU, 2014]. The use of industrial by-products, as a source of raw materials in the manufacture of portland and blended cements, is a research theme of significant relevance to the construction industry. Such industrial by-products can be employed as constituents of the final product or components of the raw feed in a cement kiln. Due to their hydraulic and/or pozzolanic activity, industrial by-products are utilized worldwide. Such by-products also increase durability and reduce costs for producing blended cements.
The use of such by-products as raw mixture component for the cement production has received comparatively little attention by researchers and engineers. There is currently an increasing interest towards searching for new categories of by-products, which would be able to provide reactive calcium, silicon, aluminum, and/or iron oxides, for portland cement clinker manufacture. In this regard, construction and demolition waste (C&DW) is worthy of consideration because, when obtained from a properly selective demolition process, they could be employed as alternative raw material for portland clinker production.
The present study deals with the use of two different kinds of C&DW, namely concrete waste (CW) and masonry waste (MW). In this study, C&DW is proposed to be employed as partial or total substitute for limestone and clay, respectively, in the portland clinker generating raw mixture. Four ternary mixtures containing limestone, as well as CW and MW, were subjected to laboratory tests in order to evaluate the clinker raw mixture produced and the performance of the related portland cement. A binary mixture, composed of limestone and clay, was used as a reference. All of these different cements displayed similar hydration behavior. Detailed results are presented and discussed
KEBIJAKAN ONGKOS NAIK HAJI (ONH) DI INDONESIA TAHUN 1960-1975 M
No full textHaji merupakan ibadah wajib bagi seorang muslim yang mampu, tak terkecuali muslim Indonesia. Dalam penyelenggaraan haji di Indonesia pemerintah berwenang dan bertanggung jawab mengeluarkan kebijakan-kebijakan untuk mengatur, melancarkan serta meningkatkan pelayanan haji. Salah satu wewenangnya ialah dengan menetapkan ongkos naik haji. Selama tahun 1960-1975 penetapan ongkos naik haji dilakukan oleh berbagai pihak mulai dari badan yang dibentuk pemerintah, maupun oleh menteri agama, hingga langsung dari presiden. Jumlah ongkos naik haji selama tahun 1960 sampai 1975 mengalami fluktuasi yang membuat jumlahnya berbeda pada tiap tahunnya.
Naik turunnya ongkos naik haji (ONH) sepanjang tahun 1960-1975 disebabkan oleh berbagai faktor. Tujuan dari penelitian ini ialah untuk mengetahui apa saja faktor yang mempegaruhi kebijakan ongkos naik haji dan pengaruhnya terhadap calon jamaah, dengan rumusan masalah meliputi, bagaimana kebijakan ongkos naik haji (ONH) di Indonesia tahun 1960-1975, mengapa kebijakan ongkos naik haji (ONH) tahun 1960-1975 berbeda, dan apakah kebijakan ONH dapat mempengaruhi minat berhaji di Indonesia. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan politik dan ekonomi, yang digunakan untuk menggambarkan kondisi politik dan ekonomi Indonesia selama tahun tersebut, sedangkan teori yang digunakan ialah teori kebijakan oleh Titmuss untuk menunjang analisis. Menggunakan metode sejarah yang mencakup heuristik, verifikasi, interpretasi dan historiografi.
Hasilnya adalah kebijakan ongkos naik haji antara tahun 1960-1975 pernah dikeluarkan oleh beberapa pihak yang silih berganti mengembah wewenang ini, mulai dari Departemen Agama, Panitia Perbaikan Perjalanan Haji (P3H), Dewan Urusan Haji (DUHA), Departemen Urusan Haji, menteri koordinator urusan haji, Direktur Jenderal Urusan Haji, menteri agama hingga pada tahun 1970 sepenuhnya menjadi wewenang presiden. Perbedaan kebijakan ongkos naik haji pada tiap tahunnya ini terjadi karena kondisi ekonomi politik yang tidak stabil sehingga kebijakan jumlah ONH ini menyesuaikan tingkat prekonomian dan kondisi politik negara. Selain itu juga dipengaruhi oleh transportasi yang digunakan, sehingga membuat jumlahnya berbeda (naik-turun) pada tiap tahunnya. Perbedaan kebijakan ONH ini kemudian memberikan pengaruh kepada calon jamaah haji dengan jumlah ONH rendah dapat menjadi pertimbangan dalam memutuskan untuk mendaftar haji dengan kesanggupan membayar biaya haji yang telah ditetapkan tersebut. Namun ketika ONH naik membuat turunnya minat berhaji dengan dicerminkan oleh turunnya jamaah haji itu sendiri

Single channel surface electromyogram deconvolution is a useful pre-processing for myoelectric control
No full textMyoelectric control requires fast and stable identification of a movement from data recorded from a comfortable and straightforward system. Here we consider a new real-time pre-processing method applied to a single differential surface electromyogram (EMG): deconvolution, providing an estimation of the cumulative firings of motor units. A 2 channel-10 class finger movement problem has been investigated on 10 healthy subjects. We have compared raw EMG and deconvolution signals, as sources of information for two specific classifiers (based on either Support Vector Machines or k-Nearest Neighbours), with classical time-domain input features selected using Mutual Component Analysis. The overall results show that, using the proposed pre-processing technique, classification performances statistically improve. For example, the true positive rates of the best-tested configurations were 80.9% and 86.3% when using the EMG and its deconvoluted signal, respectively. Even considering the limited dataset and range of classification approaches investigated, these preliminary results indicate the potential usefulness of the deconvolution pre-processing, which could be easily embedded in different myoelectric control applications
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe 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
