Water quality is a crucial factor in maintaining the survival and growth of shrimp. Manual water quality monitoring in shrimp ponds is no longer effective due to the need for periodic monitoring to maintain stable water quality. Therefore, online monitoring using various sensors installed in each pond is necessary. However, there are several challenges to overcome, such as the large expanse of the shrimp ponds, which may lead to data loss due to signal disruptions, and limited energy to power the sensors. To address these issues, this paper proposes the cooperative Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) technique with a multi-hop method for communication in the monitoring process. The system consists of five sensor nodes: temperature sensor, pH sensor, water level sensor, intake water flow sensor, and drain water flow sensor. The cooperative WSN multi-hop technique helps reduce energy consumption in the sensor nodes during measurement and data transmission, while also preventing data packet loss. This is achieved through the use of relay nodes that strengthen signals and forward data to the sink node. As a result, the battery life is extended, and energy usage in the monitoring process can be optimized. The system enables real-time online monitoring and can be accessed through a smartphone application. The results of this study show that the total energy consumption for data transmission in the sensor nodes is 9.64 J, while the total energy consumption for data forwarding in the relay nodes is 9.15 J. The total energy consumption in the transmit and receive processes is 18.79 J or 5.2 mWh. Therefore, it can be concluded that the energy savings of the proposed system is 4.3 mWh or approximately 45%, and is more efficient than the previous system.

The growth of the palm oil mill industry still has quite potential in Indonesia, but the study of by-products produced by palm oil mills is immobile and not managed optimally. The use of fly ash as one of the by-products urgently necessities to be developed. Silica is a constituent composition of palm oil fly ash that is in great demand today because it has potential applications in various purposes such as sewage treatment, semiconductor materials, and agricultural additives. Research on silica processing from ash from the combustion process is inseparable from the extraction method which is highly dependent on the characteristics of silica solubility to the solvent. This study aims to provide information on the characteristics of silica solubility derived from palm oil mill fly ash in a solution in the form of strong bases (NaOH) and weak acids (C6H8O7). The solubility activity of silica in acidic and alkaline solvents is carried out by varying the solvent concentration of 1 M, 2 M, and 3 M. Silica dissolution process is carried out at a temperature of 60oC within 60 minutes. Fly ash characterization was carried out using XRD, XRF, and SEM instruments which showed that the main constituent compounds of fly ash were CaO 68.894% and SiO2 19.189% contained in calcite, portlandite, and quartz minerals with heterogeneous morphology with particle size between 200 μm – 300 μm. The dissolution results showed that the highest silica solubility was obtained in a 2 M citric acid solvent, which was 26.35%. Keywords: Solubility, Silica, Weak Acid, Strong Base, NaOH, (C6H8O7)

This research uses a qualitative method of the case study approach. The results of this study indicate that the behavior of voters (santri) with the Michigan School approach where the political attitudes and choices are chosen is not only based on the leadership of the pesantren / santri but there is direct involvement by the participation of the students with three aspects.

It is necessary to conserve important information, like edges, details, and textures, in CT aortic dissection images, as this helps the radiologist examine and diagnose the disease. Hence, a less noisy image is required to support medical experts in performing better diagnoses. In this work, the non-local means (NLM) method is conducted to minimize the noise in CT images of aortic dissection patients as a preprocessing step to produce accurate aortic segmentation results. The method is implemented in an existing segmentation system using six different kernel functions, and the evaluation is done by assessing DSC, precision, and recall of segmentation results. Furthermore, the visual quality of denoised images is also taken into account to be determined. Besides, a comparative analysis between NLM and other denoising methods is done in this experiment. The results showed that NLM yields encouraging segmentation results, even though the visualization of denoised images is unacceptable. Applying the NLM algorithm with the flat function provides the highest DSC, precision, and recall values of 0.937101, 0.954835, and 0.920517 consecutively.

Nowadays, the advancement of Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) technology has developed very rapidly because it is very practical and has effective mobility level. In practice, there is a major problem in wireless communications systems, which is fading. Fading can cause information signal power decreasing. Fading can be overcome using a cooperative communication system, which is a method that utilizes antenna from other users (relays), using principle of diversity, hence the performance of wireless communication system is improved. A relay has several protocols on cooperative communication system, such as Amplify and Forward (AF), Decode and Forward (DF), and Compress and Forward (CF). The AF protocol is divided into two types: Non-Orthogonal Amplify and Forward (NAF) and Orthogonal Amplify and Forward (OAF). In this paper, the performance comparison of two-way NAF and OAF in terms of outage probability, throughput, and spectral efficiency is investigated. The method used is computer simulation with system modeling and performance analysis. The simulation results show that OAF protocol can minimize outage probability and increase throughput and spectral efficiency, compared to NAF protocol on two-way WLAN cooperative network.

More than two third of toddler in some developing countries suffer from declining of their childhood development. In Indonesia, in 2003, Department of Health has conducted childhood development in 30 provinces and reported that 45,12 % of infant has suffered from growth and development disorder. One of factors that influence the development is early stimulation especially from people close to the toddler (mother and other family).The aim of this study is to analyze the relationship between mother’s knowledge about early stimulation and motoric development of toddlers. This is an observational study of case control design. To obtain the samples, the technique is non probability sampling with consecutive sampling. Motoric development of toddlers from 6 – 24 month old are observed by KPSP form. Data are analyzed using bivariate analysis of Marginal Homogeneity test and Conditional Regressiona Logistic (Confidence Interval 95%). The result shows that mother’s knowledge on early stimulation have significant effect to the motoric development of toddlers. The odds ratio shows 4,950 means that the lack of knowledge of the mother on early stimulation may increase the risk of motoric development disorder about nearly 5 times. It can be conclude that there is significant relationship between mother’s knowledge on early stimulation and motoric development disorder. Mother who is in the closest position of toddlers should be educated with this knowledge of education.
