Implementasi metode Promethee Dalam Pemilihan Peminatan pada Program Studi Informatika (Studi Kasus Fakultas Ilmu Komputer Universitas Dehasen Bengkulu)”.

Dehasen University is one of the best private universities in Bengkulu City. Currently, Dehasen University provides several study programs and architecture. One of them is the Computer Science Study Program. In this study program there are several majors, one of which is the Department of Informatics. However, at this time in determining the specialization, the Faculty of Computer Science, Dehasen University does not yet have a computerized system. Specialization is still done manually by filling out specialization forms by students. Therefore, an application was built to support the student study specialization process using the Promethee method which is a ranking method that is quite simple in concept and application compared to other methods for multi-criteria analysis. This application is designed using the PHP programming language and MySQL database. The resulting system can provide convenience for the Informatics study program at the University of Dehasen Bengkulu in processing data on the selection of student specializatio

Distributed Learning from Interactions in Social Networks

We consider a network scenario in which agents can evaluate each other according to a score graph that models some interactions. The goal is to design a distributed protocol, run by the agents, that allows them to learn their unknown state among a finite set of possible values. We propose a Bayesian framework in which scores and states are associated to probabilistic events with unknown parameters and hyperparameters, respectively. We show that each agent can learn its state by means of a local Bayesian classifier and a (centralized) Maximum-Likelihood (ML) estimator of parameter-hyperparameter that combines plain ML and Empirical Bayes approaches. By using tools from graphical models, which allow us to gain insight on conditional dependencies of scores and states, we provide a relaxed probabilistic model that ultimately leads to a parameter-hyperparameter estimator amenable to distributed computation. To highlight the appropriateness of the proposed relaxation, we demonstrate the distributed estimators on a social interaction set-up for user profiling.Comment: This submission is a shorter work (for conference publication) of a more comprehensive paper, already submitted as arXiv:1706.04081 (under review for journal publication). In this short submission only one social set-up is considered and only one of the relaxed estimators is proposed. Moreover, the exhaustive analysis, carried out in the longer manuscript, is completely missing in this versio

The Empowerment of the Poor in Indonesia Using Posdaya Model

Various poverty alleviation programs implemented by the government is conceptually used the concept of empowerment. Whiles it cannot be said that these programs have been successful mainly related to community empowerment. To improve the welfare of society, required the participation of the synergy between government, civil society and the private sector. The aim of this study is to dissecting the empowerment Posdaya model that occurred in Indonesia. This study used descriptive qualitative research method. Research found that Posdaya is a free movement to revive the social capital and revive the culture of mutual cooperation in the community and caring between neighbours in building a family life, carried out independently and is open to partnerships to the independent community. Currently the number already successfully established in Indonesia around 44.571 Posdaya widely distributed in more than 300 districts / municipalities in 25 provinces of Indonesia. Posdaya built as a forum to develop an integrated dynamic empowerment activities, namely the development of empowerment for all family members combined with interrelated. The aim is that the leadership of the family know the complete role and function as a single unit intact family. Finally the head of each family and its members can remind each other to empower all family members independently

Review on Quality Protein Maize Breeding for Ethiopia

Maize (Zea mays L. ) is a major cereal crops in the World and stable food crops in developing countries. But almost all maize varieties cultivated in the Ethiopia are normal maize varieties, which are deficiency  of essential amino acids such as lysine and tryptophan and  exposed to malnutrition people feed maize as stable food. Due to this reason substituting the normal maize grown in developing country with QPM would substantially improve the protein status and greatly reduce the malnutrition problems of resource poor people depending on maize as staple food. Quality protein maize (QPM) is a maize variety that possesses significantly higher levels of two essential amino acids, lysine and tryptophan as compared to Normal Maize (NM) varieties, to the presence of the opaque-2 gene in a homozygous recessive state.  Maize   breeders  began  transferring  opaque-2 genes into  local  maize  varieties , and  they  enthusiastically  rushed  the new  crop  into  production .The breeding of QPM involves the manipulation of three distinct genetic systems. The recessive mutant allele of the Opaque-2 gene is the first and central component, the second is comprised of the alleles of endosperm hardness modifier genes and the third is comprised of a distinct set of amino acid modifier genes (termed here “aa-modifiers”) which affect the relative levels of lysine and tryptophan content in the grain endosperm. The undesirable characteristics include reduced yield than normal maize, low grain consistence and a farinaceous endosperm that retains water is a major challenge during early development of QPM dissemination. In order to overcome these apparent limitations for large scale use of such mutants, efforts were directed towards identification of alternative mutants that did not carry such disadvantages. The effort, spanning over the last decade, involved collaborative CIMMYT/donor funded projects with large components of flow through funding to enable the full participation of regional NARS. CIMMYT remained the major source of global QPM germplasm and hence QPM development in the region and Ethiopia heavily depended on the large pool of QPM source germplasm available at CIMMYT. Support from DFATD to Ethiopia has continued under the Nutritious Maize for Ethiopia (NuME) project since 2012. Now a day’s six QPM varieties are released in Ethiopia for different Agro-ecology of maize production area, But still great effort was expected from maize breeders to convert normal maize to QPM to limit malnutrition in the country.

Standard Heterosis of the Selected Maize (Zea mays L.) Inbred Lines Hybrids for Grain Yield and Yield Component at Jimma, South West Oromia Region, Ethiopa

The study was carried out at Jimma Agricultural Research Center during 2015 cropping season. The objective was to evaluate standard heterosis for grain yield and yield components in maize hybrids. Ten selected inbred lines were crossed in a half diallel following Griffing’s Model 1, Method4 and the resulting 45 F1 hybrids (excluding parents) were evaluated with four commercial hybrid checks in 7x7 alpha lattice designs with three replication. For analysis of variance ear length, ear diameter, number of rows per ear, number of kernel rows per ear, number of grain per row, thousand grain weights and grain yield data were collected. The Statistical Analysis Systems (SAS) was used to analyze the data. Analysis of variance indicates highly significant (P ≤ 0.01) and significant (P ≤ 0.05) difference for all traits except for thousand grain weights. Among the crosses L6 x L7 (8.9%), L7 x L10 (10.7%), L2 x L9 (11.1%) and L7 x L9 (15.6%) t/ha exhibited the highest standard heterotic effects for grain yield over the best commercial check BH546. Therefore maize breeding program can engage in hybrid variety formation based on the information of inbred lines with high grain yield. However, hybrids with the highest grain yield than the best commercial check can advanced to multi-location trail for further study to be released, since this experimental study was carried out only at one location.
