Statistical intelligence formulates the analysis model and reveals the system that can be easily visible and understandable to mankind. On one hand, it will benefit the society to predict the nature or man-created virus environment, and on the other hand, it will solve the problems of intelligent agents' formation with their functionality. It's a well-known fact that the agents are visible and noticeable, and they perform their own assigned task, but their recognition process is delayed. The chapter will focus on the statistical intelligence analysis that includes the properties of the error tolerance, forecasting, and high reliability. The information is always the part of the memory, but the processing methodology that may lead to knowledge is lacking. This may include the logical induction, Bayesian statistics, functional decision theory, value learning, forecasting, etc. Statistics will assist in path selection to formulate the highly adaptive intelligent system with the said functionalities with reduction in the overall cost factors.

Tradisi khitan di Indonesia sudah dikenal sejak jaman dahulu, terutama semenjak masuknya Islam ke nusantara. Namun perlu diketahui pula bahwa tradisi khitan ini sesungguhnya sudah ada sejak pertama kali manusia diturunkan ke muka bumi. Nabi adam adalah manusia pertama yang dikhitan. Selain dari sisi perintah agama dari sisi kesehatan khitan pun sangat berpengaruh dalam meningkatkan kesehatan dan mencegah timbulnya penyakit-penyakit yang diakibatkan tidak bersihnya alat kelamin pria ini. WHO pada 2007 menyatakan sirkumsisi memberi manfaat mencegah penularan penyakit HIV/AIDS dan kanker. Ikatan Dokter Anak indonesia pada tahun 2008 juga menyatakan khitan dapat mencegah penumpukan kotoran atau smegma serta mencegah fimosis, yang kedua kondisi ini dapat menyebabkan infeksi pada alat kelamin bayi dan anak. Namun terkadang pelaksanaan khitan ini belum dapat dilakukan karena terkendala faktor biaya yang cukup besar, sehingga pelaksanaannya pun tertunda. Salah satu upaya agar setiap anak dapat melakukan khitan adalah dengan diadakannya bakti sosial khitanan massal. Dan dari kegiatan khitanan massal ini diharapkan akan banyak anak di Indonesia yang dapat dikhitan, sehingga tercapai peningkatan derajat kesehatan dan pertumbuhan anak Indonesia yang baik.---The circumcision tradition in Indonesia has been known since ancient times, especially since the entry of Islam into the archipelago. However, it should also be noted that the circumcision tradition has actually existed since the first time humans were descended to the earth. Prophet Adam was the first man to be circumcised. Apart from the religious orders in terms of circumcision health is also very influential in improving health and preventing the emergence of diseases caused by unclean male genitals. WHO in 2007 said circumcision provided benefits to prevent transmission of HIV / AIDS and cancer. Indonesian Pediatrician Association in 2008 also stated circumcision can prevent the accumulation of dirt or smegma and prevent phimosis, both of these conditions can cause infection of the genitals of infants and children. But sometimes the implementation of circumcision can not be done because of significant cost factors, so the implementation was delayed. One effort that every child can circumcise is to hold a mass circumcision social service. And from this mass circumcision activity, it is expected that many children in Indonesia can be circumcised, so that an improved degree of health and growth of Indonesian children can be achieved.

Abstract The location of field ammunition depots is related to the efficiency and effectiveness of ammunition supply and support, and is affected by the changing needs of different stages of operations. In response to complex situations such as damage to transportation roads, repairs, and dynamic changes in demand in the course of combat, the fastest supply speed is the primary goal, while the satisfaction rate, balance, and cost factors of the ammunition supply at each demand point are taken into account to build a multi-stage supply Site selection planning model for field ammunition depot. Use Dijstra algorithm’s hierarchical sequence method to determine the shortest supply time, gradually increase the supply time, find the relationship between supply time, satisfaction rate, balance and cost, and find a satisfactory location plan. Finally, the simulation case calculations show that the model can cover some key dynamic changes during wartime, with strong adaptability and more scientific site selection.

Abstract Membrane-based concept comprising microfiltration and nanofiltration pre-treatments, reverse osmosis pre-concentration, and membrane distillation used for final concentration was applied for producing purified and concentrated recycled deicing fluid. Additionally, a techno-economic assessment was conducted to determine the economic viability of the recycling concept. By a straightforward membrane-based concept, ∼95% of solid and colloidal impurities together with certain deicing fluid additives such as colorants and surfactants could be efficiently removed (removal efficiencies of ∼90% and ∼93%, respectively), and resulting purified deicing fluid could be concentrated to ∼60 wt% glycol solution, enabling its recycling in deicing operations. Preliminary techno-economic assessment indicated that a membrane-based concept can be used as an economically viable alternative for recycling the spent deicing fluid at airports. The techno-economic case study at an airport consuming 4,000 tonnes of deicing fluid during 6 months annually showed the concept to be economically feasible when the price of purchased propylene glycol is over 1,000 EUR/tonne. In addition to the purchase price of the propylene glycol, the most important cost factors were labor cost and the annual consumption of deicing fluid. Integrating the membrane concept with other operations at airport has potential to decrease the labor cost and further improve the economic feasibility of the concept.

In today's market, supply chain players have to cooperate mutually for extra benefits, long lasting paybacks, and to control carbon emission for a clean environment. In this study, a two-echelon sustainable supply chain model with a supplier-retailer scenario is considered to investigate the overlooked area of growing items and reducing carbon emissions. These joint effects will benefit the firms for interim financing as well as minimize carbon emission for a clean environment. The main task for the supplier is to breed new-born animals with respect to a biologic growth pattern, then slaughters them and controls the carbon emission to maintain the sustainability. The supplier then delivers the slaughtered items to the retailer where it is used as final products to satisfy customers demand and also experienced deterioration during the inventory replenishment cycle. Carbon emission is considered due to transportation of slaughtered items to the retailer. The main goal of this paper is to analyze the model under decentralized and centralized chain structures and in the centralized case profit-sharing contract is incorporated as the cooperation tool. The model has been solved with an analytic solution approach to obtain the global optimum solution. Sensitivity analysis is carried out to investigate the impact of different input parameters. The results support the claim that centralized chain structure can provide the partners with more benefits if an appropriate coordination mechanism is applied. Moreover, it is shown that the unit purchasing cost of each echelon has a significant effect on the profit in comparison to the other cost factors. Finally the results reveal that the supplier's inventory cycle is more dependent on the growth pattern rather than external cost factors.

Random number generators are of paramount importance in numerous fields. Under certain well-defined adversarial settings, True Random Number Generators (TRNGs) are more secure than their computational (pseudo) random number generator counterparts. TRNGs are also known to be more efficiently implemented on hardware platforms where, for various applications, efficiency in terms of electronic cost factors is critical. In this manuscript, we first provide an evaluation of robustness and reliability of efficient time-domain-based TRNG implementation over FPGA platform. In particular, we demonstrate sensitivities which imply a TRNG construction which is not agnostic to electronic-design-automation tools and to the level of designers’ know-how. This entails a large amount of effort and validation to make the designs robust, as well as requires a high degree of complexity from non-trivial FPGAs flows. This motivates the second part of the manuscript, where we propose an ASIC-based implementation of the TRNG, along with the optimization steps to enhance its characteristics. The optimized design improves the randomness-throughput by 42× for the same entropy level described in previous works, and it can provide maximal entropy level of 0.985 with 7× improvement in randomness throughput over the raw samples (no pre-processing). The proposed design simultaneously provides a reduced energy of 0.1 (mW/bit) for the same entropy level as previous works, and 1.06 (mW/bit) for the higher entropy flavor, and a lower area utilization of 0.000252 (mm2) on a 65 nm technology evaluation, situating it in the top-class of the discuss ratings. This leads to the quantitative question of the gain in electronic cost factors over ASIC TRNGs, and the minimum Cost Per Bit/Source possible to date. Finally, we exemplify a TRNG versus PRNG cost-extrapolation for security architects and designers, targeting an ASIC scenario feeding a lightweight encryption core.

Abstract Industrial and economic development is primarily applied to densely populated urban areas. If a sudden disaster occurs in such areas, the consequences can be severe. Shelter facility location affects the implementation of postdisaster relief work. This study explored residents’ perceived utility of evacuation time, their risk utility for road blocking, and the cost factors associated with constructing shelter facilities in the context of governance. A location model for emergency shelter facilities in cities was established on the basis of the aforementioned factors. Because the resolution of the random-weighted genetic algorithm (RWGA) is susceptible to influence from random weights, a robustness random-weighted method (RRWM) was developed. The validity and feasibility of the location model were examined through numerical analysis. Finally, the convergence of the RRWM was analyzed and compared with that of the RWGA and a single-objective genetic algorithm. The results revealed that the proposed algorithm exhibited satisfactory performance and can assist in evaluation and decision-making related to the selection of urban shelter facility locations.
