Parallel Counting Sort: A Modified of Counting Sort Algorithm

Sorting is one of a classic problem in computer engineer. One well-known sorting algorithm is a Counting Sort algorithm. Counting Sort had one problem, it can’t sort a positive and negative number in the same input list. Then, Modified Counting Sort created to solve that’s problem. The algorithm will split the numbers before the sorting process begin. This paper will tell another modification of this algorithm. The algorithm called Parallel Counting Sort. Parallel Counting Sort able to increase the execution time about 70% from Modified Counting Sort, especially in a big dataset (around 1000 and 10.000 numbers).

Evaluating Maturity Level Using Framework ITIL: A Case Study of Service Desk's

Information Technology Governance has become one an important one along with Information Technology Management (ITM) and Information Technology Services Management (ITSM). For ITSM, The IT Infrastructure Library (ITIL) can be used as a quality and excellence service guideline, it improved quality control, service level, efficiency, effectiveness, and expenses of budget from information flow, Service Level Agreements (SLAs), and take control over business and management processes. This research conduct a case study on Company of Freight Forwarder Service will be called FFS, located in Jakarta with method ITIL focused on Service Desk’s. The data will collect by various method such as observation, questionnaires, interview and document review. The result showed that company FFS got average score on service desk’s is 1.94, with the highest score at area Process Capability and the lowest score at area Customer Interface. This conclude, that company FFS has a good management of service desk’s but lack of user experience on front end of service.

Public Opinion on National Exam Policies in Indonesia

Every new policy by Indonesian government in National Examination (NE) implementation always obtains different respond from public. Since the implementation, NE system already experienced many changes, but in recent years this system receives serious critiques. As a result, government then abolished this system as graduation determinant in 2014. This research analyzes public opinion, in the form of positive and negative sentiment toward NE policy, and factors that drive the opinions. Data in this research obtained from online news media from 2012 to 2015. The result shows that public sentiment fluctuating from year to year and depends on three important factors, i.e. political pressure, extreme events, and media coverage.

Software Defect Prediction Using AWEIG+ADACOST Bayesian Algorithm for Handling High Dimensional Data and Class Imbalance Problem

The most important part in software engineering is a software defect prediction. Software defect prediction is defined as a software prediction process from errors, failures, and system errors. Machine learning methods are used by researchers to predict software defects including estimation, association, classification, clustering, and datasets analysis. Datasets of NASA Metrics Data Program (NASA MDP) is one of the metric software that researchers use to predict software defects. NASA MDP datasets contain unbalanced classes and high dimensional data, so they will affect the classification evaluation results to be low. In this research, data with unbalanced classes will be solved by the AdaCost method and high dimensional data will be handled with the Average Weight Information Gain (AWEIG) method, while the classification method that will be used is the Naïve Bayes algorithm. The proposed method is named AWEIG + AdaCost Bayesian. In this experiment, the AWEIG + AdaCost Bayesian algorithm is compared to the Naïve Bayesian algorithm. The results showed the mean of Area Under the Curve (AUC) algorithm AWEIG + AdaCost Bayesian yields better than just a Naïve Bayes algorithm with respectively mean of AUC values are 0.752 and 0.696.

Agile Methodology: Solution to Unravel Complexities in the Implementation of ERP System

Improving productivity is a demand for the industry in order to enhance competitive advantage, especially in the manufacturing industry. For that, the industry is required to make a breakthrough in order to improve organizational performance, such as addressing the inefficiencies in managing business processes, so as to improve the way work becomes more effective and efficient. One of the efforts in improving the performance is the development in the field of Information Communication Technology (ICT), the development of technology as an effort to improve the agility of the organization. ERP system is one solution that can be employed in order to improve company performance. However, in reality, industrial companies face the complexity of implementing ERP systems. This is a challenge, that is how effective for a company in order to solve the complexity of implementing an ERP system for an industry?. In this opportunity, researchers intend to conduct a research to identify the complexity of factors in the ERP implementation, namely by proposing agile methods as one of the new methodologies in the effort to solve the complexity in the ERP implementation for an industry. The results of this study will result in an agile modeling of ERP systems, which is expected to solve the complexity of implementation and improve the capacity of ERP systems for an Industry.

Optimization of PSWAN in terms of cost and bandwidth

PSWAN is an internetworking project undertaken by Govt. of India at Pondicherry. It covers a vast area, under it there are various state headquarters and district headquarters. Approximately 3000 systems are using its internet services. Since the number of systems are more and the bandwidth required is less so optimization was needed. Optimization was required without hardware modifications, so we defined some of the parameters through which we can achieve the optimization of this network, these parameters are 1. Type of protocol 2. Type of Topology 3. Access policies 4. Load balancing 5. Traffic bottle neck 6. Bandwidth utilization. To make the network cost effective, some small networks were moved to broadband network so that bandwidth usage can be mitigated and consequently network will get optimized. Since this project (PSWAN) is using the CISCO devices only so it was easy to simulate the network, we used OPNET simulator as it is precise than other simulators. First the operational network was simulated and then the proposed one, proposed model showed evident positive results. The simulation tool used is Opnet. OPNET is extensive and powerful simulation software with wide variety of capabilities. It enables the possibility to simulate entire heterogeneous networks with various protocols
