Organizational agility: do agile project management and networking capability require market orientation?

PurposeThis study aims to examine the joint impact of networking capability and agile project management on organizational agility of telecommunication technology providers' in Indonesia. The study also examines the moderating role of market orientation as a predominant strategic orientation on the relationship between agile project management and organizational agility.Design/methodology/approachResearch data were collected via a questionnaire survey from the executive management of telecommunication technology providers in Indonesia to obtain 150 valid questionnaires for analysis. This study analyzed the overall model fit and causal relationship using confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modeling.FindingsThe results indicate that networking capability positively affects organizational agility. However, agile project management's significant effect on organizational agility occurs only when the relationship is moderated by market orientation. The results of the study also demonstrate that organizational agility positively affects organizational performance.Research limitations/implicationsThis study is based on a cross-sectional nature and might fail to capture the studied variables' dynamic over an extended period.Originality/valueThe study enriches the previous literature in organizational agility by presenting the collective impact of networking capability and agile project management and the moderating role of market orientation. However, dissimilar with major prior studies, the results indicate that agile project management's direct effect on organizational agility is not significant. Agile project management needs to be moderated by market orientation to create exceptional customer values and overcome the competition for the organization to achieve organizational agility, responsiveness and adaptability to address customers' needs and requirements. Furthermore, the study's result corroborates the importance of organizational agility to achieve organizational performance in the highly dynamic telecommunication industry.

Single Board Computer Applications as Multi-Server VoIP

Telecommunication technology is developing along with information technology and several innovations in several audio and data transmission and reception techniques. Innovation and communication technology are hoped to be able to create efficiencies in regards to time, equipment, and cost. The Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) telephone technology has experienced integration towards communication using Internet Protocol (IP) networks, better known as Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP). VoIP Technology transmits conversations digitally through IP-based networks, such as internet networks, Wide Area Networks (WAN), and Local Area Networks (LAN). However, the VoIP cannot fully replace PSTN due to several weaknesses, such as delay, jitter, packet loss, as well as security and echo. Telephones calls using VoIP technology are executed using terminals in the form of computer devices or existing analogue telephones. The benefit of VoIP is that it can be set in all ethernet and IP addresses. Prefixes can be applied for inter-server placements as inter-building telephone networks without the addition of inefficient new cables on single board computers with Elastix installed. Prefix and non-prefix analysis on servers from single board computers can be tested using QoS for bandwidth, jitter, and packet loss codec. The installation of 6 clients, or 3 simultaneous calls resulted in a packet loss value in the prefix Speex codex of 2.34%. The bandwidth in the prefix PCMU codec has an average value of 82.3Kbps, and a non-prefix value of 79.3Kbps, in accordance to the codec standards in the VoIP. The lowest jitter was found in the non-prefix PCMU codec with an average of 51.05ms, with the highest jitter for the prefix Speex codec being 314.65ms.

Video Conference Service Quality Analysis on 802.11g Wlan Network Jaringan Using Quality Of Service (Qos). (Case Study: Zoom App)

Video Conference is an interactive telecommunication technology or system utilizing the internet network so that it is able to interact with audio video with two or more people without considering the distance or different locations, but video conference requires a stable internet network in accordance with the parameters set by Telecommunications and Internet Protocol Harmonization Over Networks (TIPHON) and to determine the quality of video conference can use Quality of Service (QoS). The purpose of this study is to determine delay, throughput, jitter, and packet loss and if someone is doing video conference services on the network, their use can be further enhanced through QoS than other users who only do ordinary internet services (browsing, chatting, etc.) on the network the same network. Here the author uses the Quality of Service (QoS) method as a regulator of internet bandwidth to maximize the use of video conferencing services so that they can run stably when the flow of internet traffic is quite dense. The results of this study are based on the standard TIPHON calculation using the QoS method in testing more or less affect the quality of the video conference service with the evidence in the packet loss recorded at the time of upload and download, mostly touching the 0% figure compared to without using QoS. That way using the help of the QoS method can increase the level of quality and effectiveness in conducting video conference services.

PROBLEMATIKA PEMBELAJARAN DARING DI MASA PANDEMI COVID-19

The purpose of this research is to find out the problems of online learning during the Covid-19 pandemic. This research method uses literature study or library research by taking reading sources from secondary data collected through textbooks, scientific journals, e-books and other sources relevant to the research problem. This type of research was analyzed qualitatively with an interactive model consisting of data collection, data reduction, drawing conclusions and verification. The results of this study indicate that online learning is one solution so that the learning process continues during the Covid-19 pandemic. But in this learning there are various problems experienced by various parties, namely educational institutions, educators (teachers and lecturers), students and parents of students. The problems that exist in educational institutions are the lack of availability of telecommunication technology infrastructure, multimedia, information and platforms that support the process of teaching and learning activities online, from educators in the form of limitations in the use of IT, as well as the difficulty of forming student personality characteristics and applying learning media so that students can understand the material presented, from students, namely most students are not familiar with online learning and due to limited internet facilities, from parents the lack of time available to accompany their children during online learning because not all parents can divide their time between work and mentoring children in House.

Standardization Challenges, Opportunities and Recent Evolutions for the G3-PLC Technology

Considering the intrinsic benefits of power line communications, the long-lasting lifetime of industrial systems and the growth of IoT, PLC technologies will be part of the worldwide industrial landscape for many decades. This paper discusses the history of the G3-PLC technology and current challenges and opportunities identified in real systems. Finally, it introduces recent evolutions within the G3-PLC standard, which bring additional performance and versatility, enhancing the relevance of G3-PLC as a complementary technology to other telecommunication systems in a 5G-driven telecommunication technology landscape.

IOTs

Information technology has advanced by delivering an exponential increase in computing power. Telecommunication technology has likewise advanced communicating capabilities. Convergence of these two technologies has become possible due to the rapid advancements made in the respective technology. This convergence is termed as information and communication technology as a discipline. Many concepts are emerging in this discipline. These concepts enable business, government, and human beings to reach new realities in their required activities. Some of these concepts have created various opportunities for designing and manufacturing electronic devices. When these devices are connected to other devices and systems over the internet, this is now known as internet of things (IoT). This chapter gives a brief overview of the concepts such as cloud computing and ubiquitous and pervasive computing in the context of internet of things. Further, this chapter discusses five case illustrations with the relevance of internet of things.
