This paper was presented at the conference ‘Integrating spatial technologies and ecological principles for a new age in fire management’, Boise, Idaho, USA, June 1999 Fire modeling and information system technology play an important supporting role in fuel and fire management. Modeling is used to examine alternative fuel treatment options, project potential ecosystem changes, and assess risk to life and property. Models are also used to develop fire prescriptions, conduct prescribed fire operations, and predict fire behavior. Fire models and information systems have greatly influenced fuel assessment methods. As an example, we examine the evolution of technology used to put Rothermel’s fire spread model into application. A review of fire and fuel modeling terminology is given, and the relationship between fire models and fuel models is explained. We review current fire modeling work and the influence that it will have on fuel characterization. Finally, we discuss opportunities and challenges involved in the use of advanced computers, the Internet, Geographic Information Systems (GIS), and remote sensing in fire and fuel management.

Operational Activities

Basically, every rental service is a business that serves to maintain, manage, and utilize rental tools that are then provided to customers. The development of this company, the need for technology is needed to support the work of the system to more quickly and efficiently in processing letters, bill notes and notes change goods, and displays notification information in the form of schedule events to facilitate the provision of information directly to all employees. Current conditions in the rental SUYONO in running its business activities have not used the information system technology so that in the operation of the operational activities are still slow. SUYONO rental requires an information system which will support its business activities. Information System users are not only used in information and communications technology (ICT) organizations but also used by companies to support their business activities. From some shortcomings that exist in the company then the researcher is interested to make a Rental Apparatus Party with the Notification System, so the rental SUYONO in performing its operations more easily and quickly. The existence of the application of party equipment rental can help SUYONO rental to process the data in accordance with the necessary needs, as well as Output results in the form of travel documents, the bill notes, change notes, and billing reports can speed up the presentation process. With the notification in the form of event schedule information displayed on the second screen can facilitate both for employees and office staff in providing information on the event schedule directly.   Keywords: Information Systems, Party Equipment Rental, Notifications, SUYONO

Teaching Information System Technology in Partnership with IT CompaniesWe describe an example of partnership between a university and some major IT companies - IBM and Microsoft - to teach a course on information systems technology. The course is taught in the fifth (final) year of the university undergraduate program when students have already mastered the basic theoretical knowledge of information system development. For this reason, the course content was restructured to pay more attention to practical experience and the learning opportunities available within the environment of professional industry. During the course, students get acquainted with IBM and Microsoft products and the tools that support the development of online information systems. Special attention is devoted to group project work, which is not just intended for the improvement of technical skills, but also for the aqusition of transferrable skills such as teamwork, management/leadership, planning and organizing, presentation and documentation, searching for information, etc. We describe our experience from teaching the course in the academic years 2005/06 and 2006/07. A description of the course content is given and the results of a survey among the students are presented. Students responded favourably to the new approach and found the course very useful and interesting.

The purpose of this study is to find the requirement of Information Systems and Information Technology (IS/IT) in the development of the construction of Base Transceiver Station tower (BTS). The methodology that is used is the method of Ward and Peppard. The relevant data were extracted from interviews with the management. Questionnaires were distributed to 16 respondents, and observation was made accordingly. The results of this study are in the form of the application portfolio recommendation, proposal of the IT Division enhancement and the action time of IS/IT. The planning of IS/IT is as a guiding framework for the development of future changes at PT. Lintas Group.Keywords: Information System, Technology Information, application portfolio, telecommunication.

The purpose of this study was to determine shoreline change along the coast of Ladong, Mesjid Raya subdistrict, Aceh Besar district, Aceh province in the 5 years period started from the year 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015. Ground check was implemented in August 2016. This study utilized Geographic Information System technology (GIS), remote sensing and by utilizing Google Earth to capture aerial photo. The result from this research showed that each year the shoreline changes, either it was abrasion or accretion. In 2011-2012 the value of abrasion reached 1.1 ha and the value of accretion reached 0.5 ha. In 2012-2013 the value of abrasion reached 0.3 ha and the value of accretion reached 0.8 ha. In 2013-2014 the value of abrasion reached 1.2 ha and the value of accretion reached 0.2 ha. In 2014-2015 the value of abrasion reached 0.2 ha and the value of accretion reached 1.5 ha. The value of the annual abrasion average reached 0.56 ha and the value of the accretion was 0.58 ha. The largest abrasion happened in 2013-2014 which reached 1.2 ha. The total value of 5 year abrasion was 2.8 ha and the total value of accretion was recorded 2.9 ha. The process of abrasion and accretion also caused a change of the length of Ladong’s coastline every year, and the river estuary was one of the reasons that caused abrasion or accretion
