Zakat, infaq and alms are a solution in overcoming the problems of poverty levels and inequality of welfare in Indonesia, which have become problems that continue to be faced today. In Islam, the law for a person to give zakat is obligatory for those who already have assets that reach the nisab in one year. Zakat aims to distribute assets so that there are no social problems, both poverty levels and socio-economic disparities. Meanwhile, infaq and alms in Islam are voluntary. However, if these three activities are carried out on a large scale, it will affect the economic level of a country. The purpose of this research is to see how much someone cares and how much interest is someone in helping other members of society who are less well off and do not have power in the economy. The method used in this research is quantitative-descriptive with multiple linear regression data processing using SPSS 26 analysis tools. The results of the research conducted show that there is an influence of perceptions and attitudes on the interest in zakat, infaq and alms.

Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are available as stand-alone desktop applications as well as web platforms for vector- and raster-based geospatial data processing and visualization. While each approach offers certain advantages, limitations exist that motivate the development of hybrid systems that will increase the productivity of users for performing interactive data analytics using multidimensional gridded data. Web-based applications are platform-independent, however, require the internet to communicate with servers for data management and processing which raises issues for performance, data integrity, handling, and transfer of massive multidimensional raster data. On the other hand, stand-alone desktop applications can usually function without relying on the internet, however, they are platform-dependent, making distribution and maintenance of these systems difficult. This paper presents RasterJS, a hybrid client-side web library for geospatial data processing that is built on the Progressive Web Application (PWA) architecture to operate seamlessly in both Online and Offline modes. A packaged version of this system is also presented with the help of Web Bundles API for offline access and distribution. RasterJS entails the use of latest web technologies that are supported by modern web browsers, including Service Workers API, Cache API, IndexedDB API, Notifications API, Push API, and Web Workers API, in order to bring geospatial analytics capabilities to large-scale raster data for client-side processing. Each of these technologies acts as a component in the RasterJS to collectively provide a similar experience to users in both Online and Offline modes in terms of performing geospatial analysis activities such as flow direction calculation with hydro-conditioning, raindrop flow tracking, and watershed delineation. A large-scale case study is included in the study for watershed analysis to demonstrate the capabilities and limitations of the library. The framework further presents the potential to be utilized for other use cases that rely on raster processing, including land use, agriculture, soil erosion, transportation, and population studies.

This qualitative case study of one small private Catholic university in the northeast examines the perceptions of experienced (i.e. second to third year staff) and inexperienced (i.e. newly hired staff) student resident assistants. Specifically, this study focuses on the observations and insights of experienced and inexperienced staff as it relates to peer presented training and the overall training curriculum. The university employees a traditional training timeline with large-scale trainings occurring immediately prior to the opening of fall and spring semesters and smaller onehour trainings occurring throughout each semester. The resident assistant staff likewise follows a common model employing a number of new, first year resident assistants as well as a smaller number of second and third year resident assistants called senior residents assistants (the word "senior" implies the student staff member has at least one year of experience; it does not reference the student's academic year). The student to resident assistant ratio is a comfortable 30:1 with students living in traditional and suite style residence halls as well as apartments for upper-division students and graduates. Overall, the residential program studied is very similar to any number of other residential programs across the country. The one possible exception is the use of experienced student staff (senior resident assistants) to train inexperienced student staff (resident assistants). While this training model is not unique to the university of study, there are data to determine how common this model is, nor has there been any research related to the student staff perceptions of the effectiveness of such a model. The results of this qualitative case study reveal the training impressions of nine resident and senior resident assistants with the aim of understanding how they experienced training, their thoughts related to the use of peer presented trainers, and how they saw peer presented trainers influencing the overall staff experience. Three themes emerged: the use of experienced student staff as teachers, mentors, and supervisors. In this study I conclude the use of experienced student staff as teachers and mentors is both appropriate in this setting and desired by both experienced and inexperienced staff. However, the use of the experienced student staff position as supervisors is not viewed as appropriate by either experienced or inexperienced student staff and is cautioned against.

School achievement in foreign languages is often reported in mean scores, or on normalized scales, where schools are compared with each other and against a national average. This has led to the common belief that rural lower secondary schools in Poland are ‘worse’ than schools in larger centres of population. This paper sets out to demonstrate that such a view is erroneous as it fails to take into consideration the context, either at the level of the school as a whole, or at the level of individual learners. Based on data obtained from the first two years of a large scale longitudinal research project, “Teaching and Learning Foreign languages” (BUNJO 2012, 2013), this case study describes the context of one lower secondary school in a village in the east of Poland and profiles four teenage learners (aged 13-14) who attend this school and their achievement in English over the period of one year.

Prediction for requirements for the LHC computing for Run 3 and for Run 4 (HL-LHC) over the course of the next 10 year, show a considerable gap between required and available resources, assuming budgets will globally remain flat at best. This will require some radical changes to the computing models for the data processing of the LHC experiments. The use of large scale computational resources at HPC centres worldwide is expected to increase substantially the cost-efficiency of the processing. In order to pave the path towards the HL-LHC data processing, the Swiss Institute of Particle Physics (CHIPP) has taken the strategic decision to migrate the processing of all the Tier-2 workloads for ATLAS and other LHC experiments from a dedicated x86 ̲ 64 cluster that has been in continuous operation and evolution since 2007, to Piz Daint, the current European flagship HPC, which ranks third in the TOP500 at the time of writing. We report on the technical challenges and solutions adopted to migrate to Piz Daint, and on the experience and measured performance for ATLAS in over one year of running in production.
