The advent of the microprocessor has made it possible to provide a variety of intelligent instruments for the analytical laboratory. This trend eventually suggested the introduction of the distributed function multiprocessor concept, one of the recent system approaches in computer technology, to accommodate the growing intricacy of laboratory automation systems. To demonstrate an example of unconventional design schemes for intelligent instruments, a distributed function multiprocessor network is implemented in a small spectrophotometer. The total function is divided into basic spectrophotometric measurement, data processing, and data display, and each of them is allocated to an individual microprocessor integrated module which can communicate with others through the IEEE-488 standard interface bus. The notable feature of the system is simplicity of expansion by combining the independent functional modules along the standard interface bus. The details of the system structure and operational procedures are presented together with typical performance data.

We have studied and analyzed status and metrological supervision of blood glucose monitors, individual devices for a person’s blood glucose level measurement. It has been indicated that nowadays blood glucose monitors like other individual devices for medical measurement are not allowed to be involved in telemedicine public service. This accounts for absence of metrological supervision with these measurement devices in telemedicine. In addition, the key problem is absence of safe methods and means of remote verificaition, calibration and transmission of measurement data to health care centers. The article offers a remote test method for blood glucose monitors using a number of resistors with values correlating with measured blood glucose level. The available method has been successfully trialed in real practice.

Importasi limbah bahan berbahaya dan beracun (limbah B3) dan sampah ke wilayah Indonesia saat ini masih terjadi. Jumlah kontainer yang diimpor ke Indonesia sepanjang Januari 2018 hingga Januari 2020 mencapai ribuan kontainer (3.272 kontainer) yang diantaranya 1.662 kontainer berisi limbah B3 dan sampah yang dilarang diimpor ke Indonesia. Importasi limbah B3 dan sampah tersebut dimanipulasi dengan dinyatakan sebagai limbah Non B3 untuk bahan baku industri melalui pemalsuan dokumen impor. Hal tersebut berhubungan dengan upaya pencegahan importasi limbah B3 dan sampah ke Indonesia belum efektif. Dalam tulisan ini, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji upaya pencegahan importasi limbah B3 dan sampah ke wilayah Indonesia yang dielaborasi melalui pendekatan pencegahan secara persuasif dan preventif. Metode penelitian yang dilakukan adalah metode kualitatif. Sumber data dan informasi diperoleh dengan menggunakan teknik sampling Snowball (bola salju) dengan teknik pengumpulan data melalui wawancara, telaahan dokumen dan observasi lapangan. Selanjutnya data-data penelitian yang dihasilkan dikumpulkan, diolah dan dianalisis dengan menggunakan pendekatan teknik analisis data kualitatif model Miles dan Huberman dengan langkah-langkah reduksi data, penyajian data (data display) dan penarikan kesimpulan mengenai upaya pencegahan importasi limbah B3 dan sampah ke wilayah Indonesia. Hasil analisis atas data dan informasi yang didapat dari survei melalui wawancara terhadap 3 (tiga) Kementerian dan surveyor, telaahan dokumen dan observasi lapangan menunjukkan bahwa upaya pencegahan importasi limbah B3 dan sampah saat ini masih belum efektif dikarenakan penaatan terhadap peraturan yang masih rendah, sanksi yang belum tegas, ketentuan teknis tentang kriteria penetapan limbah B3, limbah Non B3 dan sampah masih bersifat umum, belum adanya pedoman dan panduan pemeriksaan limbah impor yang mudah dipahami serta masih adanya perbedaan presepsi atau belum adanya keseragaman pihak-pihak yang terkait mengenai pemahaman di dalam penentuan limbah yang boleh dan dilarang diimpor. Dengan demikian, perbaikan upaya pencegahan importasi limbah B3 dan sampah ke wilayah Indonesia sudah seharusnya dilakukan. Hasil penelitian ini merekomendasikan pencegahan importasi limbah B3 dan sampah dilakukan melalui pendekatan pencegahan secara persuasif dan preventif, yaitu pengaturan dan implementasi penaatan terhadap peraturan yang terkait importasi limbah B3, limbah Non B3 dan sampah yang lebih ketat serta adanya pedoman dan panduan pemeriksaan limbah Non B3 impor di negara muat yang aplikatif dan mudah dipahami oleh pemeriksa limbah.Kata Kunci: Pencegahan, persuasif dan preventif, importasi, limbah dan sampah

This article is motivated by the fact that the existence of the Street Vendor (PKL) profession is a manifestation of the difficulty of work and the lack of jobs. The scarcity of employment due to the consideration of the number of jobs with unbalanced workforce, economically this has an impact on the number of street vendors (PKL) exploding ... The purpose of being a street vendor is, as a livelihood, making a living, looking for a bite of rice for family, because of the lack of employment, this caused the number of traders to increase. The scarcity of jobs, causes informal sector migration job seekers to create an independent spirit, entrepreneurship, entrepreneurship, with capital, managed by traders who are true populist economic actors. The problems in street vendors are: (1) how to organize, regulate, empower street vendors in the cities (2) how to foster, educate street vendors, and (3) how to help, find capital for street vendors (4) ) how to describe grief as a Five-Foot Trader. This paper aims to find a solution to the problem of street vendors, so that cases of conflict, cases of disputes, clashes of street vendors with Satpol PP can be avoided. For this reason, the following solutions must be sought: (1) understanding the causes of the explosions of street vendors (2) understanding the problems of street vendors. (3) what is the solution to solving street vendors in big cities. (4) describe Street Vendors as actors of the people's economy. This article is qualitative research, the social paradigm is the definition of social, the method of retrieving observational data, in-depth interviews, documentation. Data analysis uses Interactive Miles and Huberman theory, with stages, Collection Data, Display Data, Data Reduction and Vervying or conclusions.

Abstract             The main fuction of the Bank as an funding and lending activities by offering various types of financial transaction services an attractive choice for people who do money laundering to hide money proceeds of crime. Because of that the government and Indonesian Banks make regulations related prevent money laundering that contains Customer Due Dilligence and Enhanced Due Dilligence. Bank Mandiri Syariah has implementation Customer Due Dilligence and Enhanced Due Dilligence as an effort to prevent money laundering. This analyze aims for knowing implementation Customer Due Dilligence and Enhanced Due Dilligence that has been applied by Bank Syariah Mandiri. In this study using a qualitative descriptive method. Data retrieval is done by observation, interviews and documentation to three sources of informants Bank Syariah Mandiri KCP Bekasi Timur and one sources of informants that specifically handles money laundering prevention program that is SKAP( Satuan Kerja APU PPT) Bank Mandiri Syariah. Data analysis will be done by doing three steps, they are; data reductions, data display, and verification.The observation result shows that implementation Customer Due Dilligence done at the time prospective customer open the account and the Bank doubt information customer by doing identification and verification. implementation Enhanced Due Dilligence is done to customers Politically Exposed Person/ High Risk open the account, but in practiceat Bank Syariah Mandiri KCP Bekasi Timur done when there is suspicious transaction or there is a case. Reporting process suspicious transaction through the system SIAP (System Aplikasi APU PPT) to Satuan Kerja APU PPT (SKAP) Bank Syariah Mandiri then SKAP reports to PPATK (Pusat Pelaporan Analisis Transaksi Keuangan). From implementation Customer Due Dilligence and Enhanced Due Dilligence Bank Mandiri Syariah has been prevent money laundering enter the financial system at Mandiri Sharia Bank.

The paper presents an intelligent building (IB) development strategy emphasizing the locally available non-polluting renewable energy resources utilization. Considering the immense complexity of the topic, the implementation strategy of the main energy-flow processes is unfolded, using the net zero-energy building concept (NZEB). Noticeably, in the first research steps the mathematical background of the considered NZEB strategy has been developed and presented. Then careful LabView software-based simulations prove that the adopted strategy is feasible for implementation. The result of the above mentioned research efforts is a set of powerful and versatile software toolkits well suitable to model and simulate complex heating, ventilation and air-conditioning processes and to perform energy balance performance evaluations. Besides the elaborated mathematical models, concrete software implementation examples and measurement data also is provided in the paper. Finally, the proposed original models offer a feasible solution for future developments and research in NZEB applications modelling and simulation purposes.

Abstract Vehicles, such as an agricultural tractor, construction vehicle, mobile machinery, and 4-wheel drive vehicle, are often operated on unpaved ground. In many cases, the ground is deformable; therefore, the deformation should be taken into consideration in order to assess the off-the-road performance of a tire. Recent progress in computational mechanics enabled us to simulate the large scale coupling problem, in which the deformation of tire structure and of surrounding medium can be interactively considered. Using this technology, hydroplaning phenomena and tire traction on snow have been predicted. In this paper, the simulation methodology of tire/soil coupling problems is developed for pneumatic tires of arbitrary tread patterns. The Finite Element Method (FEM) and the Finite Volume Method (FVM) are used for structural and for soil-flow analysis, respectively. The soil is modeled as an elastoplastic material with a specified yield criterion and a nonlinear elasticity. The material constants are referred to measurement data, so that the cone penetration resistance and the shear resistance are represented. Finally, the traction force of the tire in a cultivated field is predicted, and a good correlation with experiments is obtained.

Some in the social sciences argue that the same logic applies to both qualitative and quantitative research methods. This book demonstrates that these two paradigms constitute different cultures, each internally coherent yet marked by contrasting norms, practices, and toolkits. The book identifies and discusses major differences between these two traditions that touch nearly every aspect of social science research, including design, goals, causal effects and models, concepts and measurement, data analysis, and case selection. Although focused on the differences between qualitative and quantitative research, the book also seeks to promote toleration, exchange, and learning by enabling scholars to think beyond their own culture and see an alternative scientific worldview. The book is written in an easily accessible style and features a host of real-world examples to illustrate methodological points.
