PELATIHAN TRANSFORMASI DIGITAL BAGI SISWA DI SMK SWASTA KOLESE TIARA BANGSA KOTA BATAM

Digital Transformation is now the center of public attention because digital aspects have entered all levels of society, one of which is school students. The use of digital transformation that is not on target will result in misuse of technology and have a negative impact on the person's personal self to others around him. Based on the results of field observations, it is still found that millennials do not pay attention to the considerable impact of digital transformation in their daily lives. Millennials experience the greatest impact, such as not understanding digital literacy but have become actors and users of digital media, resulting in misuse of functions that can even have an impact on criminal and civil acts. This activity was carried out in December 2022 - February 2023. This School Target Development service activity was carried out at SMK Swasta Kolese Tiara Bangsa by providing material on (1). Digital Literacy, (2). Human Interaction with Computers, (3). Interactive Media Design. The results of this activity include (1). Students of SMK Kolese experienced an increased understanding of the importance of digital literacy and communication ethics in social media in the context of human interaction with computers, as well as understanding the basic skills of creative media design, (2). Students of SMK Kolese Tiara Bangsa still need to get technological development literacy to face digital transformation such as how to use ergonomic gadgets so that they still pay attention to health and how to utilize technological sophistication to be able to produce interactive design works such as games, learning media and others.

Criteria for Evaluating the Processes of Designing Onboard Radio-Electronic Equipment of Space Vehicles

The authors of the article conducted an analysis of approaches, methods, and criteria for evaluating the design processes of onboard radio-electronic equipment. In particular, the key criteria influencing the enhancement of efficiency in designing onboard radio-electronic equipment processes were examined, along with ways to improve them when addressing business process reengineering tasks in design organizations. Based on the analysis conducted and the authors experience in the field of engineering business processes for designing onboard radio-electronic equipment for spacecraft, fourteen groups of quality assessment criteria for business processes were developed. The developed criteria were tested in evaluating the performance of reengineering business processes in the instrumentation department of the Information Satellite Systems named after M. F. Reshetnev Joint-Stock Company. However, due to the vast amount of material obtained during the research and design work conducted, the authors of the article have provided only examples of the development and coordination of the technical specification for the design of onboard radio-electronic equipment for spacecraft as indicative results. The results of the testing showed the effectiveness of the developed criteria for evaluating the design processes of onboard radio-electronic equipment for spacecraft, substantiating the potential for innovation implementation.

Modeling for High-Frequency Spurious Responses in Incredible High-Performance Surface Acoustic Wave Devices.

To ensure that surface acoustic wave (SAW) filters fulfill the requirements of Carrier Aggregation (CA) applications, the development of modeling tools that can forecast and simulate high-frequency spurious responses has been necessary. This paper presents an advanced methodology for extending the coupling-of-modes (COM) model to obtain precise modeling of the high-frequency spurious responses of incredible high-performance surface acoustic wave (I.H.P. SAW) devices. The extended COM (ECOM) model is derived by modifying the conventional COM model and extending it accordingly. The parameters used in this model are determined through numerical fitting. For validation, firstly, the ECOM model is applied to a one-port synchronous I.H.P. SAW resonator, and the simulation and measurement results match. Then, the structural parameters of the ECOM model are varied, and the accuracy of the model after the structural parameters are varied is verified. It is demonstrated that this model can be applied to the design work of SAW filters. Finally, the ECOM model is applied to the design of the I.H.P. SAW filter based on a 42°YX-LiTaO3 (LT)/SiO2/AlN/Si structure. By using this method, the I.H.P. SAW filter's high-frequency spurious response can be predicted more accurately.

A Three-Pronged Verification Approach to Higher-Level Verification Using Graph Data Structures

Individual model verification is a common practice that increases the quality of design on the left side of the Vee model, often before costly builds and prototypes are implemented. However, verification that spans multiple models at higher levels of abstraction (e.g., subsystem, system, mission) is a complicated endeavor due to the federated nature of the data. This paper presents a tool-agnostic approach to higher-level verification tasks that incorporates tools from Semantic Web Technologies (SWTs) and graph theory more generally to enable a three-pronged verification approach to connected data. The methods presented herein use existing SWTs to characterize a verification approach using ontology-aligned data from both an open-world and closed-world perspective. General graph-based algorithms are then introduced to further explore structural aspects of portions of the graph. This verification approach enables a robust model-based verification on the left side of the Vee model to reduce risk and increase the visibility of the design and analysis work being performed by multidisciplinary teams.

Constructing in Minecraft in Primary School as a Boundary-Crossing Practice

This study explores the educational adoption of Minecraft as a boundary-crossing practice in primary schools. Previous research indicates that Minecraft can facilitate connections between educational activities and students’ out-of-school experiences, promoting the development of skills such as creativity, innovation, and collaboration. Using a qualitative approach, this study analyzed group interviews with 37 primary school students who participated in a Minecraft-based school project. The analysis focused on instances of boundary crossing associated with the Minecraft activity, allowing an examination of how various socio-cultural boundaries were overcome. The results suggest that educational activities in Minecraft can facilitate connections between school and out-of-school contexts. Moreover, the results indicate that Minecraft can serve as an interdisciplinary learning environment, enabling students to acquire knowledge and skills across diverse domains and disciplines. The analysis also underscores the significance of teachers’ design work in transforming the game into an educational resource. Overall, this article argues that the educational adoption of Minecraft has the potential to foster the construction of continuity between students’ different spheres of life, as well as prompting a reconsideration of students’ previous cultural classifications and social positions.

Leveraging windows of opportunity for expertise to matter in global environmental governance: insights from the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification

IntroductionWhether and under what conditions scientific knowledge provided by experts actually leads to political action is a question that academic research in various fields have focused on at length, without reaching a definitive answer. The position of expertise is especially delicate within the global environmental governance sphere containing multiple values, worldviews and epistemological standpoints.MethodsFirstly, we developed a theoretical model to examine how contextual factors, like institutional design and boundary work dynamics, contribute to expertise influencing global environmental governance. Secondly, we applied this model to the case of the Science Policy Interface to the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD SPI), using data from semi-structured interviews with SPI stakeholders and participant observation of meetings.ResultsWe identified specific dimensions of the SPI mandate that enabled expertise to matter: inclusive membership of practitioners, close interaction between experts and political actors, coordination with other advisory bodies, regular reviews, and a small group size. However, after underpinning the prevailing differences in power between SPI experts and member states in their interactions, we found that international environmental decision-making and its national-level implementation remain ultimately and inevitably subordinated to political actors, making it less likely for expertise to have a significant impact.DiscussionInternational expertise for sustainable development can only take advantage of the rare “windows of opportunity” that intergovernmental processes concede for experts to influence policy.

The Slitscope.

Slit lamp biomicroscope is the right hand of an Ophthalmologist. Even though precise, its bulky design and complex working process are limiting constraints, making it difficult for screening at outreach camps, which are an integral part of this field for the purpose of eliminating needless blindness. The torchlight is the main tool used for screening. Recently, the integration of smartphones with instruments and the digitization of slit lamp has been explored, to provide simple and easy hacks. By bringing the slit of the slit lamp to traditional torchlight, we have created "The Slitscope". It combines the best of both worlds as a simple innovative do-it-yourself novel technique for precise cataract screening. It is especially useful in peripheral centers, vision centers, and outreach camps. We present two prototypes which can also be 3D printed.

Coordinated optimization design of buildings and regional integrated energy systems based on load prediction in future climate conditions

The influence of global warming on building performance necessitates its consideration during the design phase. The conventional approach of separately designing the buildings and energy systems may not yield the globally optimal solution. To address this issue, this study proposes a coordinated optimization design approach for buildings and regional integrated energy systems (RIES) under future climate conditions. Firstly, a future regional load prediction model based on a Random Forest algorithm optimized by the Grey Wolf Optimizer is established. Next, a bi-level optimization model is proposed, with the upper level optimizing the building envelope to minimize costs and carbon emissions, and the lower level determining the optimal configuration capacity and operating strategy of RIES for cost minimization. Multi-objective grey wolf optimizer and CPLXE are employed to address the problem. Finally, the proposed method is validated using a case study of an office area in Jinan. The results show that the method can reduce costs by 14.6 % and carbon emissions by 50.93 % compared to the prototype building area with independent production systems, highlighting the potential of synergistic design between buildings and RIES. In addition, different optimization results were obtained under typical meteorological year, shared socioeconomic pathway (SSP) 245, and SSP585 climate scenarios, indicating the impact of future climate on building and RIES design. Therefore, it is necessary to consider climate change in future design work.

Middle Kingdom

In 2018, I entered the final year of my Master of Fine Arts in Visual Communications at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (SAIC). During this period, I was still trying to define what a self-directed design practice could be. I come from a fine print etching background and any design work I have done in my life has been design solutions for clients. Self-directed design seemed to be a practice that resided somewhere between these two spaces.
 Exactly 20 years previously, I had completed my end-of-school examinations in Ireland. I received my six exam results on a small piece of printed paper. Despite the huge amount of pressure put on students regarding these exams, this small piece of paper never did me any good; over the past 20 years, it has only brought negativity. I felt I had left school knowing more about football (the local obsession) than the six subjects I had studied (English, Irish, art, history, maths, and music). For my SAIC Graduate Show project, I decided to redesign my small exam results page, transforming it from something with negative associations into a series of artists’ books that would have a positive function in my life. Each book would explore one of the six subjects and be based on a real game of football from history. Each book would examine the original school subject through the lens of the real game from history, but in a manner that would be beneficial to my creative practice. They would have the dimensions of the football match day programmes I had grown up reading. They would use the same page grid system, the same exam-like paper stock, the same book cover styling, and the same type of faces but would be completely different books in their visual languages.

Software for calculating the optimum tilt angle of PV modules in different latitudes of the Southern hemisphere and solar plant sizing

Through the development of photovoltaic technologies, the market related to this type of renewable energy grows constantly. In Brazil, the generated power through photovoltaic (PV) power stations approximates to 2.3 GW representing 1.3% of the total Brazilian energy mix. To supply the public it is necessary to offer tools that facilitate consumer decision making or even the work of a solar farm designer. By analyzing the user’s necessity, it is possible to determine that a great parcel needs a quick and simple response to help them with their questions, and programs that are already well established in the marketplace are complex for inexperienced users. For this reason, a software that calculates the best inclination for PV modules using the method proposed by Liu and Jordan in 1962 is developed. It also determines the number of modules that can be installed without any shading between arrays within a user-defined area. This calculation is possible through the standard dimensions provided by the module manufacturers and the solar height and declination study. Through a simple interface, the user quickly receives the optimum tilt angle of installation, the number of PV modules and the maximum generated power.

Research on Visualization Teaching of Art and Design in Colleges and Universities Combining 3D Modeling Technology

Abstract This paper discusses constructing 3D modeling process for art and design works using 3D display technology and SIFT feature algorithm. Firstly, the pictures with different angles are obtained by changing the geometric information of the graphics and determining their positions in 3D space. Then the lighting model and texture mapping are used to enhance the realism, and the feature points are extracted in combination with the SIFT algorithm to determine the angle of the pictures. An initial 3D model is generated by image silhouette convergence, which corrects the image segmentation several times to complete the modeling. In addition, the study applies the modeling technique to the visualization teaching of art design, and verifies the teaching effect through students’ attitude and practical performance. The results show that most students have positive attitudes towards visualization teaching, especially in Class 2 and Class 15, where the favorite rate reaches 65%. Under this teaching method, students can flexibly utilize the design elements to create diversified art works.

Verification of the regulatory distribution of unit value and labor intensity of design works in thermal power construction

The authors of the study compared the cost distribution of developing construction documentation for buildings, structures, and various work types involved in the design of combustion power plants. They used data from the state-estimated standard RBPD 81-2001-23 “Reference book of basic prices for design works in construction “Energy facilities. Energy generation” and compared it with the actual labor intensity distribution data from the design of buildings and structures at the Svobodnenskaya Thermal Power Plant (TPP). Based on the study’s findings, the authors confirmed that, to some extent, the current regulatory distribution of the unit value of work in thermal power construction aligns with the actual labor intensity. Moreover, they identified groups of buildings where this regulatory distribution is not supported by the real design data. As assumptions based on the results of the study, it is proposed by the authors to classify buildings and structures in accordance with the KKS coding system and also to supplement the existing model of distribution of the unit value of design work by buildings and structures with a dependence on the value of the electric capacity of the station.

The fate of Krakow’s builders and architectus of Jewish origin in the face of World War II. Possibilities of applying the micro-historical method in research on architecture and urban planning

This article is about the fate of a group of architects and builders in Krakow during World War II. After the outbreak of the war and the start of the German occupation in September 1939, they found themselves in a very difficult position. As the persecution intensified, so did the opportunities for their professional activities strongly diminish, although they did not disappear. The article outlines in more detail two individual situations – those of Samuel Mehl and Jakub Stendig – one related to the creation of a building, the other to, among other issues, the loss of a building. The research used methods often applied in the studies in architecture and urbanism: literaturę analysis, search in archives, field research. The micro-historical method, which is rather rarely used in such research, was also applied. This method, which has been used for nearly 50 years in scientific, mainly historical research, is based on studying and preserving the individual element of the narrative while aiming to generalise the result. In spite of the extremely cruel persecution of the Jewish population in Krakow during World War II, some architects and builders of Jewish origin continued their professional activity under various and difficult conditions. Its forms varied from design work and construction of residential buildings, to care for historical monuments, to construction activity in a concentration camp. Professional activity and specific skills may have contributed to the fact that proportionally more Jewish architects and builders survived the Holocaust than the Jewish community in Krakow as a whole. The consequences of the Holocaust for the architecture and space of Krakow were serious and varied: the loss of an important professional group, the loss of valuable architectural and artistic works, the change of features in newly designed buildings. The legacy of the work of architects and builders of Jewish origin in Krakow is very significant. It has been commemorated in a variety of tangible and intangible forms, although insufficiently in proportion to its scale.

A machine learning approach to shaping magnetic fringe fields for beam dynamics control

Fringe fields at the entrances and exits of multipole magnets can adversely affect the dynamics of particles in an accelerator, but there is also the possibility that fringe fields could be used to enhance accelerator performance. Design work could benefit from computational tools for constructing realistic models of multipole fringe fields at an early stage in the design process; and methods for relating the magnet geometry to the field shape and to the beam dynamics would also be of significant value. We explore novel techniques to produce magnet designs that satisfy specific requirements for the beam dynamics. Machine learning tools are used to link properties of the beam dynamics in the fringe fields to the magnet geometry in an efficient way.
