Abstract

The location of cross-border posts is crucial for Indonesia's land and maritime security and combating illegal activity. Geographical intelligence technology like sensors and machine learning can help find crucial sites. GEOINT and international cooperation enable monitoring, threat detection, and trade regulation. This study uses a literature review to examine how GEOINT helps Indonesia defend its territory. This research collects, analyzes, and synthesizes important scientific studies using a literature review. Our literature search used relevant terms in scientific databases. The selected literature covers GIS, GEOINT, Satellites, Drones, and cross-border posts. Analysis identified major conclusions and research gaps. Geospatial intelligence technology (GEOINT), which uses drones and satellites to monitor and provide high-resolution data, is effective at detecting and responding to threats in Indonesia's extensive border areas. Additionally, this technology helps find the right cross-border post. Geographic information systems (GIS) must assist centralized data management and defense agency collaboration to strengthen border security. GEOINT supports strategic cross-border post placement decisions to secure Indonesia's borders. For regional defense, national security, and stability in the face of complex global problems, the latest and most effective technologies must be developed and used.

Abstract

Heavy metals are dangerous pollutants because they are toxic, non-biodegradable, and stable. Mercury (Hg) is a type of heavy metal that is often a source of pollution in the aquatic environment. The biosynthesis process of nanoparticles using Xylocarpus granatum fruit extract as a bioreductant has been carried out using the green synthesis method. The research was conducted to synthesize silver nanoparticles (NPP) from Xylocarpus granatum fruit extract to detect heavy metals. The optimum condition of NPP was obtained through the comparison of AgNO3 concentration with extract and reaction time. The optimum NPP produced was at a concentration of AgNO3 1 mM 1:1 at a synthesis time of 2 hours. The NPP formed is selective to Hg metal as can be seen from the color change of NPP from dark brown to clear and sensitive to Hg metal at a concentration of 40 ppm. The calibration curve formed obtained a linear regration value of the relationship between the concentration of Hg standard solution and absorbance, namely y = -0.01330 + 3.71658 with a coefficient of determination (R2) value of 0.99229. Based on the standard curve obtained NPP mangrove fruit extract Xylocarpus granatum has an accuracy of 99.229% in predicting the concentration of the sample.

Abstract

Services that use the Internet as Business Cafe, Online Games, education, defense and security, online businesses, e-mail service providers, and others will experience barriers in carrying out their activities. Often problems arise in internet service providers are setting up or managing broadband. The implementation of broadband management is aimed at optimizing the bandwidth available to provide broadband guarantees for Internet users, such as network congestion (through traffic) and unstable broadband received by Internet service providers (ISPs). Bandwidth management in Mikrotik with the PCQ (Per Connection Queue) method, basically, uses queue methods for the bandwidth balance used on multiple clients. The main purpose of this method is to automatically and unevenly share bandwidth sharing, with a simple turn-line if only one subscriber actively uses another temporary bandwidth will be in the standby position, then the subscriber can use maximum bandwidth which is available, but if another customer is active, then the maximum bandwidth can be used by both customers who have maximum width / 2, if there are subscribers at the same time active, each will receive the maximum bandwidth allowance / all clients, so will not be a fair wide-ranging distribution for all customers.

Abstract

The Social Security Administering Body (BPJS) is a social institution in Indonesia that organizes social security programs. The National Health Insurance Program (JKN) aims to improve community welfare through a capitation financing system at First Level Health Facilities (FKTP). The high number of referrals suggests that the referral system at Puskesmas has not been properly implemented, highlighting the need for monitoring and evaluation. This study aims to assess the implementation of BPJS referrals at FKTP. A literature review was conducted using Google Scholar to find relevant articles published from 2020 to 2024, resulting in the collection of seven journals. Findings indicate that while monitoring and evaluation of BPJS referrals are ongoing, implementation is not optimal and faces challenges.

Abstract

This research explores the value conflict between government interests and user satisfaction in the context of e-government. Using a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach, this research analyzes how user-oriented approaches can clash with established public values. The findings show that legal accountability is often prioritized by the government, overriding users' needs for more efficient and accessible services. In addition, the government's inability to accommodate inclusive user engagement, especially in digitally-disenfranchised societies, adds to the complexity of the problem. The conclusion of this study emphasizes the importance of a more collaborative approach in the design of government digital services that are not only efficient, but also able to increase inclusivity and public trust. For future research, it is recommended to focus on reducing the digital divide, improving accessibility, and exploring new technologies such as artificial intelligence and blockchain to support accountability and user satisfaction simultaneously.
