Potensi Pengembangan Agregator Berita dengan Konsep Slow Technology Berbasis Human Centered

The Malaysian construction industry although it plays a crucial function in stimulating the economy, is lagging behind other economic sectors. This is due to its unique characteristics such as fragmentation and slow technology adoption. These very characteristics make the industry susceptible to construction disputes. Construction disputes were found to incur high transaction costs (TCs), affect the parties involved, and subsequently increase overall project costs. Because TCs measure the costs that incur from transaction activities, they can be used to better understand the benefits within each transaction. Additionally, TCs are the best mechanism for analysing the ‘unseen’ costs of construction procurement. Previous studies on the traditional, design-and-build, and public private partnership (PPP) procurement methods have demonstrated TCs affect the organizational dynamics of construction and selection of procurement. The emerging Building Information Modeling (BIM) technology is said to be beneficial in addressing the problems associated with disputes and overall project costs. Consequently, many projects embark on BIM adoption in procurement. Hence, this preliminary study seeks to identify the TCs of BIM-adopted procurement by employing a structured literature review to determine the components and activities within the BIM procurement within the BIM implementation. The initial framework for the components of TCs of BIM procurement was drafted by referring to RIBA Plan of Work with BIM overlay. The components are categorised into pre-contract and post-contract components. These components can serve as the basis for developing a framework that can serve as a guideline for construction players involved in managing the TCs of BIM procurement.

Business Returns

After the economic crisis in 1997, the growth of Big and Medium Scale Industries (MBI) have been slowing down. The perspective of business returns to SME’s. Meanwhile, the problems of rubber SME’s products, some of them, have been known as slow technology innovation, slow output growth (productivity) and lack of working capital. To maintain the competition in the market, rubber SME’s products must accompany some strategies, in order to survive in the market and having a bargaining position. This paper just made a recommendation of a model to optimize the growth of rubber SME’s products. The spread and diffusion of MBI as a leader to rubber SME’s products as follower can be done by making some assumptions which must be done by both parties. By doing this, rubber SME’sproducts could enhance their function in the economy and thus, They will have a secure market to support the economy and sustainability of economic growth. To increase the parameters of productivity can be implemented in some ways. The growth of investment, return of capital, working hours, and the growth of human resources quality can be maintain as the engine of growth for rubber SME’s products. To perform this, They could do through raised of the saving, lower inflation and real costs through government’s policy.The development of industry should not be imposed only through MBI. The participation of rubber SME’s products should be in the perspective of the government. As it has been mentioned above, the sustainability growth of rubber SME’sproducts must be integrated with the growth of MBI. The government should realize that most of Indonesia population works in this sector, therefore the growth of this sector will be the locomotive engine of people’s economy.

Null By Morse is an installation artwork that incorporates a military signaling lamp and smartphones. A series of Morse messages is transmitted automatically by the signal lamp. The messages are drawn from the history of Morse and telegraphy. A custom app for iPhone and Android uses the phone's camera to identify the changing light levels of the lamp and the associated timings. The app then decodes the Morse and displays the message on the screen on top of the camera image. This paper discusses the artwork in relation to the following theoretical aspects: It contextualizes the position of smartphones in the history of optical communication. It proposes an approach to smartphones in media art that moves away from futurist perspectives whose fundamental approach is to seek to creatively exploit the latest features. Lastly, it discusses the interaction with the phone in the exhibition context in terms of slow technology.

This paper focuses on the importance of equity markets in facilitating the exit of entrepreneurs investing in technology. Entrepreneurs' willingness to invest and aggregate output is affected in two opposite ways. First, uncertainty about equity price or lack of market liquidity discourages technology adoption. This can explain slow technology adoption and limited participation by venture capitalists in underdeveloped equity markets. Second, fast adoption is a positive signal to imperfectly informed equity market participants. This provides a rational explanation for overpricing technology stocks and overinvestment in developed markets. Fast adoption is most probable at an intermediate quality of information.

We survey highly-experienced professionals from local accounting firms regarding the adoption of and perceived benefits from data visualization in audit practice. Although the majority of respondents have minimal experience with data visualization, local-firm partners have positive perceptions regarding the value that visualization can have on audit quality and client-related benefits. These perceptions are affected by visualization technology usage: perceived audit quality benefits increase with usage but client benefit perceptions decrease with usage. These results are consistent with competing models of technology adoption. In total, whether one labels a firm a âlaggardâ or a ârational non-adopterâ of visualization technology appears to be driven by whether the firm seeks to adopt technology in order to improve audit quality or to add value for their clients.
