Zainul Hidayat, Ulfa Maulidah — Mon, 30 Oct 2023 00:00:00 +0700

This study aims to determine the urgency of the existence of Information and Communication Technology in various administrative and communication service applications at the village level in particular. This includes the planned presence of SILDEKAN (Digital Technology Application through Information System and Services of Babakan Village), Lumajang district. This is a departure from the various complaints from services that are still not as expected. This research uses the library research method (literature study), looking for relevant literature sources according to the topic discussed, with the aim of finding scientific studies on the use of service and information applications carried out by the village government including the planned use of SILDEKAN. In conclusion, the application of digital technology through the Babakan Village Information and Service System (SILDEKAN) in Babakan village, Padang sub-district, Lumajang, East Java to provide services and information is very urgent and needs to be implemented immediately as part of efforts to improve service quality.

PPK Ormawa is a community service and empowerment program initiated by student organizations. In particular, PPK Ormawa HMJ Informatics at the Widya Gama Lumajang Institute of Technology and Business devised SIDEM, a village administration system for Kedawung Village. SIDEM utilizes Agile methods, allowing swift and successful software development. The system's outcome is a user-friendly design benefiting both village officials and communities. The application of Agile methods facilitated flexibility, promptly adapting to evolving requirements and incorporating feedback. This approach ensured the system's functionality while aligning with Kedawung Village's specific needs. Agile's rapid development further enabled timely implementation, potentially significantly improving village administration and communication. SIDEM's design emphasis on usability demonstrates a commitment to user-centered development, empowering local stakeholders. Ultimately, the success of SIDEM's Agile-driven development underscores the significance of agility and user-centric design in community service initiatives. This model serves as a valuable example for future technology-based community empowerment projects.

Decision-Making System for Selecting Alternative Product Purchase Stores in Tokopedia Using A Combination of SAW and TOPSIS

In the era of advancing digital technology enabling online business transactions, e-commerce platforms like Tokopedia have rapidly grown in Indonesia, providing consumers with a wide array of products and services. However, this abundance of choices often leads to consumer confusion when selecting alternative stores for their purchases. Additionally, Tokopedia's search filter feature is limited, merely sorting products based on selected criteria without considering the consumer's specific needs. To address these issues, a decision-making system is essential, aiding consumers in choosing products from alternative stores that best align with their individual preferences and predetermined criteria. This study proposes a combined methodology employing the Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) method and the Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS). Initially, the SAW method normalizes values (r), which are subsequently ranked using the TOPSIS method to generate recommendations for alternative stores based on input criteria and weights. The adoption of this decision-making system is poised to enhance the online shopping experience for Tokopedia users by providing well-informed recommendations, improving overall satisfaction, and streamlining the purchasing process. In conclusion, this research offers a promising approach to addressing the challenges posed by the abundance of choices in online retail, ultimately benefiting both consumers and online businesses.

Analysis Influence Segmentation Image on Classification Image X-raylungs with Method Convolutional Neural

Fathur Rahman, Nuzul Hikmah, Misdiyanto — Mon, 30 Oct 2023 00:00:00 +0700

The impact of image segmentation on the classification of lung X-ray images using Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) has been scrutinized in this study. The dataset used in this research comprises 150 lung X-ray images, distributed as 78 for training, 30 for validation, and 42 for testing. Initially, image data undergoes preprocessing to enhance image quality, employing adaptive histogram equalization to augment contrast and enhance image details. The evaluation of segmentation's influence is based on a comparison between image classification with and without the segmentation process. Segmentation involves the delineation of lung regions through techniques like thresholding, accompanied by various morphological operations such as hole filling, area opening, and labeling. The image classification process employs a CNN featuring 5 convolution layers, the Adam optimizer, and a training period of 30 epochs. The results of this study indicate that the X-ray image dataset achieved a classification accuracy of 59.52% in network testing without segmentation. In contrast, when segmentation was applied to the X-ray image dataset, the accuracy significantly improved to 73.81%. This underscores the segmentation process's ability to enhance network performance, as it simplifies the classification of segmented image patterns.

The Impact of TikTok Technology Transformation in the Digitalization Era Using SmartPLS

Cahyasari Kartika Murni — Mon, 30 Oct 2023 00:00:00 +0700

The utilization of technology has become the foundation for many businesses striving to remain competitive in the current digital era, where online shopping is increasingly dominant. TikTok, as a popular social media platform, has been employed as a marketing tool to reach a wider audience by offline businesses. This research seeks to understand the impact of TikTok technology utilization on online purchasing decisions. The sustainability of offline businesses depends on adapting to the changing consumer behavior, which is increasingly inclined towards online shopping. This study highlights the importance of using TikTok as a creative and innovative marketing tool to reach online customers. The research results indicate that the more intensive the use of TikTok technology, the more likely customers are to opt for online shopping. Subsequently, the ease of shopping on TikTok mediates the influence of technology utilization on online purchasing decisions. However, online product prices do not play a significant mediating role in purchase decision-making. In order to compete in an increasingly interconnected digital era, offline businesses need to consider more innovative marketing strategies and focus on providing a better user experience. The utilization of technology and creativity in TikTok content becomes the key to influencing online purchase decisions by digitally connected customers.
