Abstract

Optimal course scheduling is a crucial aspect in supporting the efficiency of the teaching and learning process in higher education. In many institutions, lecture scheduling is still done manually or with static methods that are not adaptive to changing needs and limited resources. This research aims to develop an adaptive lecture scheduling system using genetic algorithms, with a case study at ITB Ahmad Dahlan. Genetic algorithms were chosen because of their ability to solve complex optimization problems with high efficiency, such as managing dynamic variables such as lecturer availability, rooms, and lecture time preferences. In this research, data related to courses, lecturers, time, classroom availability, and curriculum requirements are integrated into the designed system to generate an optimal course schedule. The development process involved several key stages, including requirements analysis, system design, algorithm implementation, and performance evaluation. Genetic algorithm implementation is done by simulating various scheduling scenarios to find the most optimal solution. The results show that the developed system is able to produce a more efficient and clash-free course schedule compared to traditional scheduling methods. In addition, the system also allows higher flexibility in adjusting the schedule to changes that may occur, such as the addition or reduction of classes. Thus, this research makes a significant contribution in improving the quality of educational services at ITB Ahmad Dahlan as well as offering solutions that can be adopted by other educational institutions facing similar challenges.

Abstract

This research aims to develop a prediction system for urban waste generation using the Incremental Linear Regression method on SIMASKOT. This method is applied to deal with the limitations of historical data, where the prediction results from the previous year are used as training data to predict the next year. The problem faced is the lack of sufficient data to create accurate and reliable prediction models in the long term. The purpose of this study is to improve the accuracy of waste generation prediction using an incremental regression approach. The experimental methodology involves the use of waste generation data from several waste categories during the period 2019 to 2022, which is then used to predict data until 2026. Model evaluation was carried out using the metrics Mean Absolute Error (MAE), Mean Squared Error (MSE), Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE), and R². The results show that this incremental prediction model is able to provide more accurate predictions than conventional models, especially for more volatile waste categories such as wood twigs and metals. The conclusion of this study shows that the Incremental Linear Regression technique is effective to be used in waste generation prediction, and can be integrated in long-term prediction-based monitoring applications.
