ANALISIS SISTEM INFORMASI AKUNTANSI PADA YAYASAN ALPHA OMEGA
Sistem Informasi Akuntansi Penerimaan dan Pengeluaran Kas yang diterapkan pada perusahaan Yayasan Alpha Omega terlihat kurang baik, maka peneliti melakukan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui masalah yang ada,demi memperbaiki dan mencapai tujuan perusahaan. Dua kegiatan oprasional yang mempengaruhi kondisi perusahaan adalah Penerimaan Kas dan Pengeluaran Kas. Metode penelitian deskriftif yang digunakan dalam penelitan ini. Sistem akuntansi penerimaan dan pengeluaran kas pada Yayasan Alpha Omega masih terdapat beberapa kelemahan. Berdasarkan hasil analisis data yang dilakukan, ditemukan kendala diantaranya selisih pencatatan yangterdapat pada bagian admin dan bagian keuangan. Yayasan Alpha Omega disarankan untuk merubah proses penerimaan dan pengeluaran nya yang berjalan, dengan prosedur yang diusulkan oleh penulis. Hal tersebut dilakukan agar Yayasan Alpha Omega dapat meningkatkan kinerja perusahaan dengan Sistem Informasi Akuntansi yang lebih baik

The Transmembrane Domains of the EBV-Encoded Latent Membrane Protein 1 (LMP1) Variant CAO Regulate Enhanced Signalling Activity
AbstractSequence variants of the Epstein–Barr virus (EBV)-encoded latent membrane protein-1 (LMP1) have been reported in association with EBV-linked malignancies but little is known about their effects on signalling pathways and phenotype. We have examined the ability of the nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC)-derived variant, CAO-LMP1 to activate the transcription factors NF-κB and AP-1 in epithelial cells. In this study, transient expression of CAO-LMP1 was found to activate higher levels of NF-κB and AP-1 than the prototype B95.8-LMP1 in human embryonic kidney (HEK) 293 cells and SV40-transformed keratinocytes (SVK). In addition, pulse–chase analysis revealed that CAO-LMP1 has a longer half-life than B95.8-LMP1. Chimera studies localised these phenomena to the transmembrane domains of CAO-LMP1, suggesting that this enhanced signalling capacity may be a consequence of its prolonged half-life. The ability of CAO-LMP1 to activate higher levels of NF-κB and AP-1 may contribute to its potent transforming properties
Judgmental adjustments of previously adjusted forecasts
Forecasts are important components of information systems. They provide a means for knowledge sharing and thus have significant decision-making impact. In many organizations, it is quite common for forecast users to receive predictions that have previously been adjusted by providers or other users of forecasts. Current work investigates some of the factors that may influence the size and propensity of further adjustments on already-adjusted forecasts. Two studies are reported that focus on the potential effects of adjustment framing (Study 1) and the availability of explanations and/or original forecasts alongside the adjusted forecasts (Study 2). Study 1 provides evidence that the interval forecasts that are labeled as "adjusted" are modified less than the so-called "original/unadjusted" predictions. Study 2 suggests that the provision of original forecasts and the presence of explanations accompanying the adjusted forecasts serve as significant factors shaping the size and propensity of further modifications. Findings of both studies highlight the importance of forecasting format and user perceptions with critical organizational repercussions. © 2008, Decision Sciences Institute
Self Consistent Molecular Field Theory for Packing in Classical Liquids
Building on a quasi-chemical formulation of solution theory, this paper
proposes a self consistent molecular field theory for packing problems in
classical liquids, and tests the theoretical predictions for the excess
chemical potential of the hard sphere fluid. Results are given for the self
consistent molecular fields obtained, and for the probabilities of occupancy of
a molecular observation volume. For this system, the excess chemical potential
predicted is as accurate as the most accurate prior theories, particularly the
scaled particle (Percus-Yevick compressibility) theory. It is argued that the
present approach is particularly simple, and should provide a basis for a
molecular-scale description of more complex solutions.Comment: 6 pages and 5 figure
Extending the lifetime of 3D black hole computations with a new hyperbolic system of evolution equations
We present a new many-parameter family of hyperbolic representations of
Einstein's equations, which we obtain by a straightforward generalization of
previously known systems. We solve the resulting evolution equations
numerically for a Schwarzschild black hole in three spatial dimensions, and
find that the stability of the simulation is strongly dependent on the form of
the equations (i.e. the choice of parameters of the hyperbolic system),
independent of the numerics. For an appropriate range of parameters we can
evolve a single 3D black hole to -- , and are
apparently limited by constraint-violating solutions of the evolution
equations. We expect that our method should result in comparable times for
evolutions of a binary black hole system.Comment: 11 pages, 2 figures, submitted to PR
Hierarchical Organization in Complex Networks
Many real networks in nature and society share two generic properties: they
are scale-free and they display a high degree of clustering. We show that these
two features are the consequence of a hierarchical organization, implying that
small groups of nodes organize in a hierarchical manner into increasingly large
groups, while maintaining a scale-free topology. In hierarchical networks the
degree of clustering characterizing the different groups follows a strict
scaling law, which can be used to identify the presence of a hierarchical
organization in real networks. We find that several real networks, such as the
World Wide Web, actor network, the Internet at the domain level and the
semantic web obey this scaling law, indicating that hierarchy is a fundamental
characteristic of many complex systems
