International Journal of Religious Tourism and Pilgrimage

The International Journal of Religious Tourism and Pilgrimage is a high-quality, international, open access, online, double blind reviewed publication which deals with all aspects of Religious Tourism and Pilgrimage. The International Journal of Religious Tourism and Pilgrimage (IJRTP) was founded in 2013 by an international group of researchers (the Institute for Religious Tourism and Pilgrimage). The journal is published by the Technological University Dublin, Dublin, Ireland. All articles in this journal are full text and available on open access. The journal takes an interdisciplinary international approach and includes all aspects of Religious Tourism and Pilgrimage. It is inclusive of all denominations, religions, faiths and spiritual practices. The journal\u27s online platform facilitates a truly integrative approach. While the main emphasis is on primary research articles, it also welcomes suitably relevant discussion papers, research / review pieces, industry focused case studies and evaluations, management guides and reports, economic evaluations, book reviews, announcements of forthcoming meetings etc. Papers / articles should be relevant to both academics and practitioners. All papers are subject to ‘double – blind – review’. Papers can include a variety of media elements including audio and visual files, a range of image formats and hyperlinks to websites and other online resources

Sistem Informasi Publik Layanan Kesehatan Menggunakan Metode Location Based Service di Kota Semarang

Penelitian ini merancang aplikasi sistem informasi berbagai lokasi penting bagi masyarakat yang membutuhkan petunjuk jalan lokasi pelayanan kesehatan. Hal ini didasarkan pada masih banyak masyarakat yang belum mengetahui lokasi terdekat layanan kesehatan di kota Semarang. Penelitian ini menggunakan model pengembangan sistem siklus hidup (SDLC). Model analisis sistem menggunakan Use Case Diagram, Activity Diagram, Class Diagram, Kamus data dan E-R Diagram. Manfaatnya dapat memberikan kemudahan, kecepatan, dan ketepatan dalam mengetahui posisi geografis lokasi layanan kesehatan terdekat di sekitar pengguna beserta informasi pendukung seperti visualisasi objek dalam bentuk maps melalui perangkat mobile Android disertai rute untuk menuju objek layanan kesehatan yang dipilih, pencarian objek, dan menu pendukung lainnya

Oilfield Produced Water Management: Treatment, Reuse and Disposal

Produced water is accompanied with the production of oil and gas especially at the fields producing by water drive or water injection. The quantity of these waters is expected to be more complicated problem with an increasing in water cut which is expected to be 3-8 barrels water/produced barrel oil.Produced water may contain many constituents based on what is present in the subsurface at a particular location. Produced water contains dissolved solids and hydrocarbons (dissolved and suspended) and oxygen depletion. The most common dissolved solid is salt with concentrations range between a few parts per thousand to hundreds parts per thousand. In addition to salt, many produced waters also contain high levels of heavy metals like zinc, barium, chromium, lead, nickel, uranium, vanadium and low levels of naturally occurring radioactive materials (NORM).This study will highlight the main aspects of the different international experiences with the produced water treatment for subsequent reuse or disposal. These different treatment methods vary considerably in effectiveness, cost and their environmental impacts. Samples of produced water from Al-Mishrif formation in ten wells belongs to five fields southern Iraq were taken and analyzed chemically to define the basic features of these waters and to have guide lines for the best strategy that required handling the increased water cut in these fields

A secure and scalable IoT consensus protocol

Several consensus algorithms have been proposed as a way of resolving the Byzantine General problem with respect to blockchain consensus process. However, when these consensus algorithms are applied to a distributed, asynchronous network some suffer with security and/or scalability issues, while others suffer with liveness and/or safety issues. This is because the majority of research have not considered the importance of liveness and safety, with respect to the integrity of the consensus decision. In this paper a novel solution to this challenge is presented. A solution that protects blockchain transactions from fraudulent or erroneous mis-spends. This consensus protocol uses a combination of probabilistic randomness, an isomorphic balance authentication, error detection and synchronised time restrictions, when assessing the authenticity and validity of IoT request. Designed to operate in a distributed asynchronous network, this approach increases scalability while maintaining a high transactional throughput, even when faced with Byzantine failure
