Implementasi Metode Profile Matching Untuk Mengetahui Supplier Terbaik Pada PT. Lautan Luas Medan

Supplier merupakan salah satu bagian terpenting dalam suatu perusahaan penyedia jasa konstruksi. Untuk mendapatkan hasil yang terbaik, dibutuhkan pula supplier yang terbaik dan berkualitas. Salah satu upaya untuk mendapatkan supplier tersebut adalah dengan melakukan pemilihan supplier, oleh karena itu pemilihan supplier sangat diperlukan untuk perusahaan penyedia jasa konstruksi. Karena banyaknya supplier, PT. Lautan Luas Medan kesulitan dalam memilih supplier dengan kelebihannya masing-masing. Proses pemilihan supplier ini menggunakan metode Profile Matching, dengan tahapan yaitu menentukan kriteria, perhitungan pemetaan gap, melakukan pembobotan, perhitungan core factor yang dan secondary factor, perhitungan nilai total, dan perhitungan untuk menentukan perangkingan. Kriteria pemilihan supplier pada PT. Lautan Luas Medan adalah pengiriman, pelayanan, produk, kualitas dan harga. Pemilihan supplier dengan metode Profile Matching ini dibangun dengan menggunakan bahasa pemrograman Visual Studio 2010 dan SQL Server 2008. Profile Matching merupakan solusi yang terbaik untuk memecahkan permasalahan dan membantu pimpinan dalam mengambil keputusan pemilihan supplier yang lebih obyektif pada PT. Lautan Luas Medan

Symmetry breaking in a plasmonic metamaterial at optical wavelength

We numerically study the effect of structural asymmetry in a plasmonic metamaterial made from gold nanowires. It is reported that optically inactive (i.e., optically dark) particle plasmon modes of the symmetric wire lattice are immediately coupled to the radiation field, when a broken structural symmetry is introduced. Such higher order plasmon resonances are characterized by their subradiant nature. They generally reveal long lifetimes and distinct absorption losses. It is shown that the near-field interaction strongly determines these modes

Plasma–liquid interactions: a review and roadmap

Plasma–liquid interactions represent a growing interdisciplinary area of research involving plasma science, fluid dynamics, heat and mass transfer, photolysis, multiphase chemistry and aerosol science. This review provides an assessment of the state-of-the-art of this multidisciplinary area and identifies the key research challenges. The developments in diagnostics, modeling and further extensions of cross section and reaction rate databases that are necessary to address these challenges are discussed. The review focusses on non-equilibrium plasmas

Retrospective evaluation of whole exome and genome mutation calls in 746 cancer samples

Funder: NCI U24CA211006Abstract: The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and International Cancer Genome Consortium (ICGC) curated consensus somatic mutation calls using whole exome sequencing (WES) and whole genome sequencing (WGS), respectively. Here, as part of the ICGC/TCGA Pan-Cancer Analysis of Whole Genomes (PCAWG) Consortium, which aggregated whole genome sequencing data from 2,658 cancers across 38 tumour types, we compare WES and WGS side-by-side from 746 TCGA samples, finding that ~80% of mutations overlap in covered exonic regions. We estimate that low variant allele fraction (VAF < 15%) and clonal heterogeneity contribute up to 68% of private WGS mutations and 71% of private WES mutations. We observe that ~30% of private WGS mutations trace to mutations identified by a single variant caller in WES consensus efforts. WGS captures both ~50% more variation in exonic regions and un-observed mutations in loci with variable GC-content. Together, our analysis highlights technological divergences between two reproducible somatic variant detection efforts

Passenger-centric airport management via new terminal interior design concepts

Meeting the needs of passengers will increasingly become a competitive factor for airports. Information is one of the most valued services for passengers. Therefore, timely providing of real-time data to the passengers is high on the list of airlines and airports. Since not every passenger has a mobile device at hand, relevant information need also be disseminated offline. Static and dynamic signs cover the above mentioned issues, but the place, where such signs are installed is crucial. The goal of our new design concept for terminals is providing information to passengers, where and when they need it. Each service point --- from check-in through security check to boarding --- has been designed using curved layout design and furniture along with large displays for information. The size of the displays is chosen such that passengers are able to recognize important information with respect to the specific service point at one glance. Waiting seats are surrounding the service point to provide an unhindered view to the displays and to promote communication. We implemented our design ideas in our artificial terminal building of an international airport. The impact of information displays is modeled by a microscopic simulation. Adopting the assumption that the information displays make it easier for the passengers to figure out the way through the terminal we simulate a whole day at the artificial terminal

Tunable plasmonic nanostructures

We discuss different composite plasmonic nanostructures, which optical properties can be tuned by displacing some of their parts at the nanoscale. The actuation of these structures with MEMs will define new optical functionalities
