    PENINGKATAN EFISIENSI PRODUKTIVITAS UMKM KERIPIK TEMPE SAGU “BULANKOE” CILEUNGSI KABUPATEN BOGOR

    Full text link
    The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 will be increasingly felt by small industrial business actors in 2021. One of them is the Center for Research and Community Service of the Indonesian Institute of Technology (PRPM ITI), namely the UMKM Tempe Sago Chips "Bulankoe" in Cileungsi. In addition to competition from similar businesses resulting in a decrease in consumer buyers, the main problem is the production process of tempeh chips which still use ordinary knives so that it takes a long time to slice the tempeh. Another problem is the results of the tempeh slices are not evenly thick and thin. If it is too thin, the tempeh slices will crumble when fried and if it is too thick, the tempeh slices are less dry when fried, thereby reducing the amount of production. In order to overcome these problems, the ITI Mechanical Engineering Study Program (PS MS ITI) made a tempeh slicing machine to be donated to UMKM Sago Tempe Chips "Bulankoe" and then provided training on the use of the machine. Through this training activity, UMKM actors are able to operate a tempeh slicing machine, the slicing time is getting faster with the desired thickness.Dampak pandemi Covid-19 tahun 2020 semakin dirasakan pelaku usaha industri kecil di tahun 2021. Salah satunya adalah binaan Pusat Riset dan Pengabdian Masyarakat Institut Teknologi Indonesia (PRPM ITI) yaitu UMKM Keripik Tempe Sagu “Bulankoe” di Cileungsi. Selain adanya persaingan dari usaha serupa sehingga menurunnya konsumen pembeli, masalah utama adalah proses produksi keripik tempe yang masih menggunakan pisau biasa sehingga membutuhkan waktu yang lama untuk pengirisan tempe. Masalah lainnya adalah hasil irisan tempe tidak merata tebal tipis nya. Jika terlalu tipis, irisan tempe akan hancur ketika digoreng dan jika terlalu tebal,  irisan tempe kurang kering ketika digoreng sehingga menurunkan jumlah produksi.  Dalam rangka mengatasi permasalahan tersebut, Program Studi Teknik Mesin ITI (PS MS ITI) membuat  mesin pengiris tempe untuk dihibahkan kepada UMKM Keripik Tempe Sagu “Bulankoe” dan kemudian memberikan pelatihan penggunaan mesin tersebut. Melalui kegiatan pelatihan ini pelaku UMKM mampu mengoperasikan mesin pengiris tempe, waktu pengirisan semakin cepat dengan ketebalan yang diinginkan

    Infrastructure Development and Economic Growth in Indonesia: A Province Panel Data Analysis

    Full text link
    Infrastructure development is considered as a factor that promotes development. On the other side, inequality in infrastructure development can cause economic growth disparity. This study aims to investigate the impacts of infrastructure development on economic growth disparity across provinces in Indonesia that today consists of 34 provinces. The data used came from the Indonesia Database for Policy and Economic Research (INDO-DAPOER) of the World Bank. The analysis employed the random effects regression model for panel data. The dependent variable was GDP per capita without oil and gas (constant price, million rupiah), while the independent variables were household access to electricity (total in % of total household), literacy rate for population age 15 and over (in % of total population), and birth attended by skilled health worker (in % of total birth). The results of the study show that higher economic growth is associated with better infrastructure development, that is higher household access to electricity, higher literacy rate for population age 15 and over, and higher birth attended by skilled health worker. Disparity in economic growth across provinces was also indicated by the difference in constant for each province in the model

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Full text link
    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

    Full text link
    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

    Full text link
    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

    koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist

    No full text
    We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
