Abstract

Indonesia, an archipelago rich in cultural diversity, historical heritage, and stunning natural scenery, offers an extraordinary travel experience to visitors who make this country their vacation destination. Tourism in Indonesia plays an essential role in the domestic economy, contributing to Gross Domestic Product. With its abundant natural and cultural resources, North Sumatra has long been recognized as an attractive destination for foreign tourists. However, the tourism sector faces significant challenges related to fluctuations in the number of visits, mainly due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has disrupted global travel patterns and caused considerable uncertainty in tourism forecasting. Therefore, predicting the number of tourist visits becomes crucial for effectively planning and managing tourist destinations. This research aims to compare the performance of two forecasting algorithms, SVM and linear regression, in predicting foreign tourist visits in North Sumatra using historical data from 2019 to 2023. The dataset was subjected to a preprocessing phase to ensure data cleanliness and consistency, focusing on key variables such as seasonal trends, external factors, and market dynamics. Both models were evaluated based on two commonly used accuracy metrics, MAPE and RMSE, to assess how well the models could predict actual tourist arrivals. The results of the study indicate that Linear Regression outperforms SVM in terms of prediction accuracy, with a MAPE of 42.40% and an RMSE of 6735.6, compared to SVM with a MAPE of 46.65% and an RMSE of 8020.42. These findings provide valuable insights for local government authorities and tourism industry stakeholders to enhance destination planning, resource allocation, and strategies to attract more foreign tourists in the post-pandemic era.

Abstract

Team member commitment is at the core of organizational performance and durability, especially in the public sector. The study seeks to supplement existing knowledge by examining the effects of job authority and job empowerment on team member commitment and its impact on motivation, job satisfaction, and loyalty to the organization. This was obtained through a mixed-method approach, drawing together quantitative survey data with qualitative in-depth interviews with public workers. The findings indicate that the greater the level of authority, the more responsibility there is, and the more freedom there is for decision-making, the greater the commitment to the organization. Knowing how to do the work properly and having the proper skills and self-confidence were also essential for team member commitment. Employees at the lower organizational levels reported having feelings of encouragement and interest in the company, as well as integration into the strategic objectives of the company or enterprise. These results indicate the need for public service organisations to adopt a sustainable employee commitment culture focusing on authority and empowerment. Such issues need to be examined as time passes in future studies. The findings emphasize the importance of job authority and empowerment as determinants of team member engagement in the public sector compared to team member engagement in the private sector: assistive medical devices and many other organizations.

Abstract

People increasingly recognize entrepreneurship as a critical strategy for driving economic growth, reducing unemployment, and fostering innovation across sectors. However, entrepreneurship's sustainability relies heavily on supporting a robust ecosystem, with education serving as its foundation. Innovations in education, such as project-based learning (PBL), business simulations, and collaborations between educational institutions, industry, and government, are essential for shaping resilient, innovative, and sustainable entrepreneurs. Research has demonstrated that ecosystem-based entrepreneurship education enhances critical thinking skills, creativity, adaptability, and entrepreneurial readiness to tackle global challenges. Multi-stakeholder collaborations between education, industry, and government strengthen this ecosystem by providing resources, networks, and knowledge that support business sustainability. Additionally, challenge-based learning approaches such as Challenge-Based Learning (CBL) and the integration of business simulations effectively increase entrepreneurial confidence and learning performance through real-world experiences. This strategy has the potential to significantly and sustainably influence economic development through the ecosystem of entrepreneurship education. This study takes a qualitative approach, analyzing books, policy papers, case studies, and scientific articles on entrepreneurship education from different higher education institutions using a literature review method. We perform the analysis using a descriptive methodology to find trends, themes, and successful tactics in entrepreneurship education. Building a healthy entrepreneurial ecosystem requires innovation in entrepreneurship education. Approaches such as project-based learning and business simulations provide students with relevant practical experiences, helping them develop skills such as decision-making, risk management, and innovation needed to navigate the dynamics of modern business. Furthermore, collaboration between the education sector, industry, and government is critical in creating an ecosystem that supports innovative and resilient entrepreneurs. Studies show that innovation-based education, supported by multi-stakeholder collaboration, improves students' readiness for business challenges and contributes to sustainable economic and social growth.

Abstract

Papaya is a tropical fruit that is commonly consumed and found in Indonesia. The ripeness level of papaya is typically assessed based on its colour. However, farmers and consumers often make mistakes identifying the fruit's ripeness. This research aims to design an application capable of determining the ripeness level of papaya based on colour images using Red, Green, Blue (RGB) and Hue, Saturation, Value (HSV) features and applying the Support Vector Machine (SVM) algorithm for ripeness classification. The dataset consists of images of California papayas, with 150 samples. The outcome of this study is a digital image application that can classify papaya ripeness into three categories: raw, half-ripe, and fully ripe. The evaluation used 80% of the data for training and 20% for testing. The results show an accuracy of 80%. With this relatively high level of accuracy, it can be concluded that the SVM algorithm is reliable for classifying papaya ripeness levels of Papayas.

Abstract

Organizations must evaluate information technology (IT) expenditures to ensure that IT resources' use contributes value and is in line with their strategic goals. This paper investigates how the Val IT Framework can be used as an efficient tool for managing and evaluating IT investments. Val IT offers a thorough framework for assessing IT initiatives' advantages, disadvantages, and risks and their influence on accomplishing company objectives. We examine how the Val IT Framework may enhance accountability, facilitate IT performance monitoring, and increase transparency in investment decision-making through case studies of multiple businesses. The findings demonstrate that the application of Val IT fosters the advancement of improved IT management techniques and raises knowledge of the worth of IT investments. To attain optimal and sustainable outcomes, IT managers and stakeholders are advised by these findings to utilize a framework-based approach when evaluating investments. However, several challenges remain before the framework can be implemented, including a lack of funding, knowledge about it, and opposition to change. Organizations must, therefore, develop a comprehensive plan. To facilitate change adaptation, this plan should offer incremental implementation, adequate training to enable all stakeholders to better understand Val IT and enough resources to support adoption. These steps can assist businesses in more successfully overcoming their existing challenges. By adopting the right approach, businesses may maximize their IT investments and ensure that every dollar invested contributes significantly to achieving their strategic goals. The Val IT Framework serves as both an assessment tool and a roadmap for better, long-lasting results in IT management when used appropriately. This illustrates how crucial it is to make the investment necessary to implement this framework if the business is to be successful and viable in the long run.

Abstract

Bagasse is one of the solid wastes of the sugar cane industry, and it contains lignin fibre. Lignin from sugarcane bagasse is also known to have relatively high antioxidant activity. Sugarcane bagasse antioxidants can stabilize free radicals by completing free radicals’ lack of electrons and inhibiting chain reactions from forming free radicals. This type of research is laboratory experimental research (actual experiment design). In this research, lignin isolation and fractionation will be carried out from sugarcane bagasse to obtain lignin fractions with antioxidant activity. The percentage of lignin yield from this process is around 72.85%. The IR spectrum resulting from isolation from sugarcane bagasse has a typical absorption peak of aliphatic and aromatic –CH at a wave number of 2919.7/cm. The antioxidant activity of the lignin fraction from sugarcane bagasse was determined using the DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2- picrylhydrazyl) free radical scavenging method using four solvents, namely ethyl acetate, acetone and methanol. Based on the level of antioxidant strength, the strength level is 50 powerful, 50-100 strong, 100-250 medium, 250-500 weak and 500 inactive; therefore, the results of testing the most potent antioxidant activity in the acetone fraction were found to be ??50 50, 6755 mg/L and weak antioxidant activity was found in the methanol fraction, the result was ??50 68.8503.

Abstract

The welding process plays a crucial role in manufacturing and is inseparable from its advancement. Deutsche Industrie Norman (DIN) defines welding as creating a metallurgical bond at the joint of metal or alloy metals in their molten state. This process is essential for constructing strong, durable materials like plates, steel, and pipes. Bending tests, including face bend and root bend, are often conducted to evaluate the quality of welded joints. These tests assess welded materials’ toughness, strength, and resistance under specific loading conditions. This study employed two welding techniques: Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW) and Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW). GMAW, called Metal Inert Gas (MIG) welding, uses argon or helium as protective gases and a continuously fed electrode wire. On the other hand, SMAW relies on flux-coated electrodes to create the weld seam, with molten metal from both the electrode and parent material filling the joint. The results revealed distinct advantages for each method. The highest bending test value for the root bend was achieved with MIG welding at 982,55 Kgf/mm², demonstrating its effectiveness in creating durable root joints. Conversely, SMAW exhibited superior performance in face bend tests, achieving a bending strength of 104111 Kgf/mm², making it ideal for surface-level joint applications. Both techniques displayed no visible cracks in their welds, ensuring compliance with industry standards and confirming their reliability for various manufacturing needs. These findings highlight the importance of selecting appropriate welding methods based on specific application requirements.
