Modelling and simulation of water distribution systems with quantised state system methods

The work in this paper describes a study of quantised state systems in order to formulate a new framework within which water distribution systems can be modelled and simulated. In contrast to the classic time-slicing simulators, depending on the numerical integration algorithms, the quantisation of system states would allow accounting for the iscontinuities exhibited by control elements in a more efficient manner, and thereby, offer a significant increase in speed of the simulation of water network models.The proposed approach is evaluated on a case study and compared against the results obtained from the Epanet2 simulator and OpenModelica

The Application of Web-based Technologies in Product Data Management and Manufacturing Systems Interoperability and Data Exchange

As the use of web-centric technology matures within the current market, one of the most widely used standardized data exchange formats is XML (Extensible Markup Language). This is due to the fact that XML-wrapped data can be used and understood by any application that is XML-enabled. This is one of the main factors this paper aims to exploit in order to tackle the problem of improving manufacturing product development in a distributed and collaborative environment within the World-Wide-Web. The objective of this paper is to investigate how XML and the proposed standard XMI (XML Metadata Interchange) can be used as the mediation for associating a commercially available Product Data Management (PDM) system and a manufacturing system, which consists of manufacturing and design domains. In particular, the focus of this paper is to emphasise the way in which systems interoperate and deliver data solutions to enterprise information challenges

E-Government Asset Management Using the Extreme Programming

Village Asset Management is a village property derived from the original property of the village, purchased or acquired for the expense of the village's income and expenditure budget (APBDes) or other legitimate acquisition of rights. In this study is the management of the village assets Kebumen Baturraden subdistrict and The problems acquired are the recording of village assets and the realization of the budget of the village assets that are still written so it takes A long time, Therefore the purpose in This research is to help and facilitate management performance in village Asset listing. Methods of collecting data using observations, interviews and Library studies. System development method using the Extreme programming method consisting of four phases of system development, namely planning, design, coding and test. The result of this research is a Village Asset Management E-Government using the Extreme Programming method of the Kebumen Village case study. The conclusion of this research is that it can simplify the management and realization of village assets budget due to the two interconnected reporting are reports of budget realization and village Asset report

Behavior of transformational leader, organization culture, and subbordinate's working behavior toward working performance of small and medium enterprises: Reconceptualization and modeling

The low working performance of small and medium enterprises can not be separated from behavior of transformational leader and organization culture which can form subordinate’s working behavior. These factors are very important to be concerned, especially for an entrepreneur who lives with full of uncertainty and continually speculation. Based on the mentioned things, the research is conducted with a purpose to form measurement model of organization’s working performance through behavior of transformational leader and organization culture in forming behavior of subordinate’s duty on knitting industry in the Binong Jati kinitting center, Bandung. The method used is descriptive survey and explanatory survey, with 120 researched samples from 412 knitting entrepreneurs with simple randomized sample method.The analysis method was structural equation model (SEM) analysis method using LISREL software.The important finding of this research result shows that behavior of transformational leader is classified in fair category, while their organization culture is classified in low category.Furthermore, behavior of subordinate’s duty is classified in fair category, while organization working performance is still classified in low category.The analysis result proves that transformational leader and organization culture can form behavior of subordinate’s duty which finally can form organization working performance
