Decision Support System for Determining Number of Depot to Distribute Material in the Rattan Furniture Industry by Considering the Location-Allocation Problem
Full text linkIn this paper we will develop a spreadsheet-based Decision Support System (DSS) to determine the
number of rattan depot and supply allocation to meet the production centers demand with case study in Solo Raya.
The DSS incorporates database, model base, analysis tool, and Graphical User Interface (GUI) and user.
Databases for storing data, the model base to keep models, analysis tool is required for solving the model and GUI
allows users to interact with the database, model base and analysis tool. Data base, the base model and analysis
tool are developed using the spreadsheet. The basic idea of the proposed approach is the spreadsheets can be used
to build data-driven, model-driven DSS and solver-driven DSS. The model was developed by consider two stages
of distribution network, multi commodities of raw rattan, and multi-periods of production plan. The DSS
development approaches used in order to government can efficiently make the policy. DSS software interface is
designed so user-friendly with point and click application so that users can operate quickly and easily. Users do
not need to formulate a mathematical model despite they want to change index values or parameters repeatedly.
The test results of case examples provided also give good results, where the software is capable for processing data
based on selected model. The DSS is capable for providing location results and the allocation of raw or processed
rattan at the depot on minimal total supply chain cost. The result may be a consideration for the policy makers to
determine the right location of rattan depot.

A Facility Location-Allocation Model for Determining Number of Depot to Distribute Material in the Rattan Furniture Industry by Considering Dynamic Demand
Full text linkThis paper is a study of a facility location-allocation problem in the rattan furniture industry. There
are six production centers (PCs) of rattan furniture in Surakarta and its surroundings. However, their export
sales are decline due to some possible problems in raw rattan distribution network from the sources centers
(SCs), e.g. Borneo and Celebes Island to production centers. In the previous research, the model was expanded
to support local government decide to determine optimal number of depot by consider static demand. This
policy is aimed to cut the distribution channel and reduce total supply chain costs. Due to changing of global
market, the demand is fluctuate. The previous model cannot anticipate this situation; consequently the local
government needs a facility location-allocation model by considering dynamic demand. The objective of this
research is to develop a model for supporting the local government to decide optimal number of depot by
considers dynamic demand. A mixed integer non-linear programming (MINLP) was proposed to minimize total
supply chain costs. The proposed model assumed that the demand for multiple products is known in advance.
The potential raw rattan depot and source locations as well as their maximum capacities are also known.
Finally, the proposed model can be used as instrument decision making to determine facility location-allocation.
Keywords: dynamic demand, a facility location-allocation model, rattan industry competitiveness, total supply

Designing Information System To Support Business Process Improvement In A Small-Mid Size Bottled Drinking Water Industry
Full text linkDue to inefficiencies of the business processes in small-mid size of bottled drinking water industries,
it is necessary to improve them. The improvements are carried out in business processes of production,
warehouse, delivery, marketing, and finance departments. The main causes of the inefficiencies are the
inefficiencies of the business process itself and that the business processes of those departments were not
integrated. This paper is concerned with designing information system to support for the integration of those
departments. First, we mapped the business process of each department using flow diagram. Then analyze the
inefficiencies of each department. Next, we redesign the business processes and standardize them. The next step
is integrating the business processes by designing the information system. We design the information system
modular. The modules are marketing module, production module, logistic module and finance module. Data
Flow Diagram (DFD) is used to model the system. Relational database management system (RDBMS) is used
to design the database. User interfaces are built to ease in using the program application. The outputs of the
information system are reports and documents in monitor screen view and in printing. The validation showed
that the information system designed can support the business process improvements.

Designing Enterprise Resources Planning Application for Integrating Main Activities in a Simulator Model of SCM Network Distribution
Full text linkCollaborative supply chain is a specific topic in supply chain management and studied by
industrial engineering students in supply chain management course. Unfortunately, conventional
learning media cannot explain the phenomenon of collaborative supply chain to the students. This study
aimed to design a dynamic learning media so that inter-company collaboration and information sharing
on the activities of Supply Chain entities can be explained effectively to the students. The problem was
solved using 3 (three) steps. First, the distribution network was described using mock up. It consists of
miniature trucks, miniature network and miniature of the manufacturer-distributor-retailer embedded
with tag and reader of RFID. Second, the Enterprise Resources Planning application was developed for
supporting business activities. Third, we developed the integrator consists of monitor’s user interface
and practice modules. The result of the research - an SCM-Simulator – will be able to improve learning
skills of industrial engineering graduates, especially abilities to identify, formulate, and solve the
activities of tactical plan & operational routines of Supply Chain entities. However, distribution module
designed is for limited scale laboratory study of simple objects.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Penjadwalan Pekerjaan pada No-Wait Flowshop dengan Kriteria Minimasi Total Waktu Tinggal Aktual Menggunakan Algoritma Genetik
Full text linkThis research uses genetic algorithm for no-wait flowshop scheduling problem. The shop requires the
condition that each job be processed without any interruptions on all m machines and between two
consecutive machine. This means that the start of processing a job on a given machine may be delayed in
order to make the completion of the job on the machine coincide with this beginning of processing the job
on the subsequent machine. The objective for the model is to minimize total actual flow time
accommodating the condition that job to be processed arrive at the shop at any times when needed and
the condition that the completed job be delivered at a common due-date. Genetic algorithm is randomly
and structured search to find optimal solution. Numerical experience shows that for a given scheduling
problem, genetic algorithm solution better than before (Yuniaristanto, 2001).

Variations on the Author
Full text link“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 linkWe 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
