Evaluation Of Data

ABSTRAK Salah satu penyebab kecelakaan pertambangan adalah kondisi tidak aman dan tindakan tidak aman dari pekerja pekerja tambang. cara efektif dalam mengelola bahaya tersebut adalah dengan melaporkan bahaya tersebut. Saat ini pelaporan bahaya tersebut diwajibkan kepada seluruh pengawas operasional, sayangnya hasil dari aktifitas tersebut belum terdokumentasi dengan baik karena proses masukan masih dilakukan secara manual sehingga perlu waktu yang tidak sedikit dan hasilnya belum efektif untuk memberikan rekomendasi perbaikan terhadap bahaya tersebut. Selain itu media untuk melakukan kegiatan tersebut menggunakan kertas, terkadang pengawas operasional kesulitan mendapatkan form ketika berada di lapangan sehingga menyulitkan pembuktian dokumentasi dalam menemukan kondisi tidak aman dan tindakan tidak aman. Berdasarkan permasalahan tersebut maka dibuat system dan aplikasi dalam memudahkan proses dokumentasi dalam bentuk aplikasi mobile yang dapat di akses dalam kondisi offline/online,dimanapun, kapanpun melalui mobile phone dan database yang direkam dapat digunakan sebagai acuan dalam analisa dan evaluasi data untuk pengendalian pencegahan kecelakaan. Analisa dari aplikasi tersebut terbukti meningkatkan jumlah pelaporan kondisi tidak aman dan tindakan tidak aman hingga 15% dari pelaporan menggunakan formulir. berdasarkan pelaporan bahaya tersebut, kita dapat mengetahui tempat-tempat kritis yang sering ditemukan adanya penyimpangan sehingga pada area tersebut lebih prioritas dalam pengendalian bahaya dan resiko yang timbul. Lebih dari itu aplikasi ini juga linier dengan misi perusahaan dalam pengelolaan lingkungan karena pengurangan pemakaian kertas menjadi digital. Berdasarkan hasil kajian diatas implementasi aplikasi I-Safe dapat meningkatkan kepedulian pekerja tambang mengenai keselamatan kerja dan database yang direkam dapat digunakan sebagai dasar pengambilan keputusan yang valid. Hal ini sejalan sebagai salah satu bentuk penerapan pengelolaan keselamatan pertambangan Indonesia dalam menghadapi era industri 4.0 mengenai digitalisasi, keselamatan dan pertambangan. Kata Kunci : aplikasi, I-Safe, database, evaluasi, keselamatan             ABSTRACT One of the causes of mining accidents is unsafe conditions and unsafe actions from mining workers. an effective way to manage the hazard is to report the hazard. Currently the hazard reporting is required for all operational supervisors, unfortunately the results of these activities have not been well documented because the input process is still done manually so that it takes a lot of time and the results have not been effective to provide recommendations for improvement of the hazard. In addition to the media to carry out these activities using paper, sometimes operational supervisors have difficulty getting forms while in the field, making it difficult to prove documentation in finding unsafe conditions and unsafe actions. Based on these problems, systems and applications are made to facilitate the process of documentation in the form of mobile applications that can be accessed in an offline / online condition, anywhere, anytime through a mobile phone and a recorded database can be used as a reference in the analysis and evaluation of data for accident prevention control. Analysis of the application has been proven to increase the number of reporting unsafe conditions and unsafe actions to 15% of reporting using forms. Based on the reporting of hazards, we can find out critical places that are often found irregularities so that the area is more priority in controlling hazards and risks that arise. Moreover, this application is also linear with the company's mission in environmental management because of the reduction in the use of paper to become digital. Based on the results of the study above the implementation of the I-Safe application can increase the concern of mine workers regarding work safety and the recorded database can be used as a basis for valid decision making. This is in line as one form of the implementation of Indonesian mining safety management in the face of the industrial era 4.0 regarding digitalization, safety and mining. Keywords: application, I-Safe, database, evaluation, safety

Modernist literature is inextricable from the history of obscenity. The trials of such figures as James Joyce, D. H. Lawrence, and Radclyffe Hall loom large in accounts of twentieth-century literature. Filthy Material: Modernism and the Media of Obscenity reveals the ways that debates about obscenity and literature were shaped by changes in the history of media. The emergence of film, photography, and new printing technologies shaped how “literary value” was understood, altering how obscenity was defined and which texts were considered obscene. Filthy Material rereads the history of modernist obscenity to discover the role played by technological media in debates about obscenity. The shift from the intense censorship of the early twentieth century to the effective “end of obscenity” for literature at the middle of the century was not simply a product of cultural liberalization but also of a changing media ecology. Filthy Material brings together media theory and archival research to offer a fresh account of modernist obscenity with novel readings of works of modernist literature. It sheds new light on figures at the center of modernism’s obscenity trials (such as Joyce and Lawrence), demonstrates the relevance of the discourse of obscenity to understanding figures not typically associated with obscenity debates (such as T. S. Eliot and Wyndham Lewis), and introduces new figures to our account of modernism (such as Norah James and Jack Kahane). It reveals how modernist obscenity reflected a contest over the literary in the face of new media technologies.

The 1960S

Abstract The second half of the 20th century is commonly considered to be a time in which German companies lost their innovative strength, while promising new technologies presented an enormous potential for innovation in the US. The fact that German companies were quite successful in the production of medium data technology and had considerable influence on the development of electronic data processing was neglected by business and media historians alike until now. The article analyses the Siemag Feinmechanische Werke (Eiserfeld) as one of the most important producers of the predecessors to said medium data technologies in the 1950s and 1960s. Two transformation processes regarding the media – from mechanic to semiconductor and from semiconductor to all-electronic technology – are highlighted in particular. It poses the question of how and why a middling family enterprise such as Siemag was able to rise to being the leading provider for medium data processing office computers despite lacking expertise in the field of electrical engineering while also facing difficult location conditions. The article shows that Siemag successfully turned from its roots in heavy industry towards the production of innovative high technology devices. This development stems from the company’s strategic decisions. As long as their products were not mass-produced, a medium-sized family business like Siemag could hold its own on the market through clever decision-making which relied on flexible specialization, targeted license and patent cooperation as well as innovative products, even in the face of adverse conditions. Only in the second half of the 1960s, as profit margins dropped due to increasing sales figures and office machines had finally transformed into office computers, Siemag was forced to enter cooperation with Philips in order to broaden its spectrum and merge the production site in Eiserfeld into a larger business complex.

Background. The use of mobile applications in dermatology to support remote diagnosis is gaining acceptance, particularly in rural areas, where dermatology services are commonly managed by healthcare personnel with no specialty training. Moreover, ontologies—sets of concepts that represent knowledge in a given domain—are increasingly being used to support medical diagnosis. A specific case is ONTODerm: an ontology to aid dermatological diagnosis. However, there is little information on the combined use of mobile applications and ontologies as support solutions in dermatology. Objective. Assessing the reliability of ONTODerm as a tool to support remote dermatological diagnosis when used together with a mobile dermatological application in underprivileged areas. Methods. A mobile application that allows characterization of skin lesions was developed, and the information about the lesions was sent to ONTODerm. An exploratory study was conducted in a remote area without access to a dermatologist. A total of 64 dermatological queries were recorded in the application and consulted with ONTODerm. Later, an experienced dermatologist evaluated the characterization and diagnosis of each query to determine the accuracy of the system. Results. The results showed that the probability of obtaining a correct diagnosis was between 64.4% and 85.6% with a confidence interval of 95%. A higher accuracy rate was obtained when the skin lesion occurred on the face or when its border was categorized as poorly demarcated. Conclusions. This study demonstrates the implementation of a teledermatology strategy based on mobile applications and domain ontology-driven knowledge base to provide timely assistance to healthcare professionals. This approach was found to be pertinent in the Colombian rural context, particularly in forest regions, where dermatology specialists are not available. The results of this article do not represent a final validation of the proposed approach; they suggest how the ontology can be improved to effectively support medical staff in marginalized regions.

Lab Test

Maggi was the most popular instant noodles brand in India, which children in particular loved to snack on. The brand had a dominant position until suddenly in mid-2015 it got engulfed in controversy. Several state food regulators found that Maggi contained monosodium glutamate as well as lead well above the prescribed limits. Both these substances were harmful especially for children. When Nestlé India was confronted with lab test results it stuck to its position that they had a world class quality control process in place and that their products were safe for consumption. Finally, the national food regulator FSSAI, ordered a ban on the sale of Maggi including product recall. Consequently, several state governments imposed temporary ban on the sale of Maggi noodles in their respective states. The future of the company suddenly looked very bleak. Nestlé India was slow to respond to this fast unfolding crisis. Further, their responses were very brief and not adequately culture-sensitive. This led to the feeling in several quarters that the company was probably guilty of wrongdoing. To set right things Nestlé's worldwide CEO flew into India to douse the flames of the controversy and draw up an appropriate strategy to bail out the brand. He address the media, put in place a new CEO for Nestlé India and set brand Maggi on the path of recovery. However, Nestlé India was still facing a number of critical issues. What should be done to win over the trust of its customers? How should it recover market share lost to competitors both old rivals and new entrants? What strategy should it develop to succeed with the new products, especially hot heads, launched along with the comeback strategy? Should it change its approach to dealing with government health officials to prevent confrontations in future? How should it shorten the response time and make it effective in the face of a media backed public outcry in future?

Two decades of contestation over the nature and extent of transformation in the South African news media have left a sector different in substantive ways from the apartheid inheritance but still patchy in its capacity to fill the democratic ideal. Change came fast to a newly open broadcasting sector, but has faltered in recent years, particularly in a public broadcaster troubled by political interference and poor management. The potential of online media to provide much greater media access has been hindered by the cost of bandwidth. Community media has grown but struggled to survive financially. Print media has been aggressive in investigative exposé, but financial cutbacks have damaged routine daily coverage. In the face of this, the government has turned its attention to the print sector, demanding greater—but vaguely defined—transformation and threatened legislation. This has met strong resistance.

Background: Research about the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), its epidemiology and socio-economic impact on populations worldwide has gained attention. However, there is dearth of empirical knowledge in low- and middle-income settings about the pandemic’s impact on survivors, particularly the tension of their everyday life arising from the experiences and consequences of stigma, discrimination and social exclusion, and how they cope with these behavioral adversities. Methods: Realist qualitative approach drawing data from people clinically diagnosed positive of COVID-19, admitted into therapy in a designated treatment facility, and subsequently recovered and discharged for or without follow-up domiciliary care. In-depth interviews were conducted by maintaining a code book for identifying and documenting thematic categories in a progression leading to thematic saturation with 45 participants. Data were transcribed and coded deductively for broad themes at the start before systematically nesting emerging themes into the broad ones with the aid of NVivo 12 software. Results: Everyday lived experiences of the participants were disrupted with acts of indirect stigmatization (against relatives and family members), direct stigmatization (labeling, prejudices and stereotyping), barriers to realizing full social life and discriminatory behaviors across socio-ecological structures (workplace, community, family, and social institutions). These behavioral adversities were associated with self-reported poor health, anxiety and psychological disorders, and frustrations among others. Consequently, supplicatory prayers, societal and organizational withdrawal, aggressive behaviors, supportive counseling, and self-assertive behaviors were adopted to cope and modify the adverse behaviors driven by misinformation and fearful perceptions of the COVID-19 and its contagious proportions. Conclusion: In the face of the analysis, social campaigns and dissemination of toolkits that can trigger behavior change and responsible behaviors toward COVID-19 survivors are proposed to be implemented by health stakeholders, policy and decision makers in partnership with social influencers, the media, and telecoms.

Catalonia is in a situation of political conflict with the Spanish State regarding its right to self-determination, a conflict that has been exacerbated in recent years by the growing demand from a part of Catalan society for an independent state. Throughout this situation rumours have appeared in relation to events as they unfold. One of the key moments in the conflict was the referendum on self-determination, which was approved, prepared, and held on 1 October 2017, in the face of continuous opposition from the Spanish State. The tensions, uncertainties, and fears experienced by those in favour of the referendum were fuelled by rumours that in many cases were ultimately proven to be false. The present paper will analyse the rumours that emerged in relation to the referendum and the political atmosphere at that time. The study will analyse the rumours relating to aspects such as the logistics required to hold the referendum, the key figures in the process, the organizations that support it and the actions of the media, among others.
