Management Information System For Telecommunication Tower Fee Payment At The Department Of Communication And Informatics Of Mempawah Regency

The development of telecommunications technology, such as BTS towers, has provided significant benefits to society. However, the Communication and Information Office (DISKOMINFO) of Mempawah District still faces challenges in managing telecommunications tower data using separate Microsoft Excel files. This causes the data retrieval process to be slow, hinders data changes, and increases the risk of errors. In order to address this problem, the Information Technology Division of DISKOMINFO Mempawah District has developed a web-based management information system to monitor and expedite the calculation of fees and the issuance of SKRD (Tower Utilization Permit). The waterfall development method was chosen to ensure a clear understanding of the system requirements before starting development, and to ensure that each phase is completed before moving on to the next phase. It is expected that the developed telecommunications tower fee payment system will support DISKOMINFO in ensuring timely fee payments, which are crucial for the development of the telecommunications industry and the overall economy.

A Novel Robust Digital Subarray Partition Algorithm With Binary Coding

In large-scaled phased array radar signal processing, digital subarray partition technique would reduce the system size and computational complexity effectively. However, increasing inter-subarray spacing will lead to the grating-lobes which degrading the beamforming performance. In this communication, by merging the concepts of encoding technology and subarray division, a novel digital subarray structure based on binary coding is proposed to suppress the grating-lobes and lower the side-lobe level. The core of the algorithm is optimally accommodating the binary coding so that the array is divided into multiple layers of subarrays, including uniform and interleaved structures with various inter-subarray spacing. Thus, the diversity of subarray phase centers is guaranteed and the periodicity of the phase centers is broken. Simulation results are given to demonstrate the superiorities of proposed algorithm in beamforming and efficiency performance.

The design of a camera-based fisheries-independent survey for untrawlable habitat in the Gulf of Alaska

Biomass and size composition estimates from the fishery independent biennial Alaska Fisheries Science Center Resource Assessment and Conservation Engineering Division’s Groundfish Assessment Program Gulf of Alaska bottom trawl survey are an integral component of stock assessments and management of fishes in the region. A substantial proportion of the seafloor in the Gulf of Alaska survey area consists of rocky, high-relief habitat that is not accessible to trawl survey gear and is important habitat for many harvested fish species, especially rockfishes (Sebastes spp.). Survey estimates of groundfish abundance from trawlable grounds are expanded across the entire region. Therefore, survey abundance estimates could potentially be biased as a result of sampling that does not spatially represent all of the available habitat circumscribed by the Gulf of Alaska study area. Mapping the extent of the untrawlable habitat is a critical step toward understanding the scale of these potential biases and would benefit the design of a future untrawlable habitat survey. Several previous efforts have provided trawlability maps for part or all of the Gulf of Alaska based on different data inputs. In the present work, we compile two previously published untrawlable habitat maps with three other relevant data sources to create a new untrawlable habitat map, and use this map in conjunction with density estimates from existing underwater camera studies to investigate the feasibility of an untrawlable habitat rockfish survey in the Gulf of Alaska. An analysis of 1 km2 grids sampled more than once with a lowered camera system suggested that a single-stage sampling design (one camera transect per grid) would be most effective. Post-stratification analysis showed that either a simple depth stratification or stratification based on species distribution models provided lower coefficient of variation (CV) values at a given sample size compared to random sampling. Furthermore, a target CV of 25 % could be reached for a camera survey of dusky rockfish, northern rockfish, or Pacific ocean perch with less than 200 lowered camera transects if a stratification scheme based on species distribution models was used.

Capstone Design in Engineering Community Engagement Course

Community engagement is a growing area of attention within civil engineering education due to student interest and evidence of its benefits in supporting learning outcomes, among other factors. At Purdue University, a large curricular community-engaged design program, Engineering Projects in Community Service (EPICS), has partnered with Engineers Without Borders USA (EWB-USA) to give students academic credit for international civil engineering projects. EPICS and EWB-USA align in their utilization of multi-year partnerships between communities and vertically-integrated student project teams. The EPICS EWB-USA course section served as the capstone experience environment for a team of senior design students from the Division of Environmental and Ecological Engineering in the 2019–2020 academic year. This paper provides a case study to illustrate how to meet the new ABET Criterion 3 (student outcomes), in the broad space of civil engineering and related fields, with experiences that incorporate community-engaged learning. The pedagogical techniques and assessment methods utilized to support the development and measurement of the student’s outcomes are described. Discussion is presented on the interplay of course components and specific student learning outcomes. We believe this example can serve as a reference for others working to integrate senior design and community-engaged engineering design, to support student learning outcomes as well as positive community partnerships and impact.

What does a department need to get involved in clinical trials?

Clinical trials are conducted to evaluate the usefulness of a drug, medical treatment, surgical intervention, radiological procedure, behavioral intervention, or preventive health care strategy. Clinical trials are challenging, time-consuming, and need careful planning and execution. There are certain requirements for an academic unit to be ready for conducting quality research, especially clinical trials. These include logistical concerns, infrastructure, appropriately trained human resources, conformity with ethical compliances and regulatory compliances as per the laws governing the respective geographical regions.Infrastructure requirements include research division space, robust data archival system, archival of imaging data, laboratory services, information technology division and facilities for the appropriate consenting process. Human resources such as principal investigators, data managers, clinical research assistants and biostatisticians are needed to execute the clinical trial as per the study design. Adherence to ethical and regulatory standards; during the conduct of the clinical trial are imperative. Strict compliance with prevailing governing laws in the country is a prerequisite for a department to get involved in clinical trials. The department also needs to put in place an institutional ethics committee; the composition of which is often governed by regulatory laws. The ethical aspects of the trial undergo a formal scrutiny by an Institute ethics committee that ensures quality care to the patient, and safeguards the patient's rights and privileges.The academic unit of any department forms the core for possible research and pursuit of clinical trials. A department with rich clinical experience and expertise in the filed aids in the execution of quality research. The academic department must consider grant writing and multiple center collaborative research projects in due course of time to further enhance the quality of clinical trials and research output.
