Penilaian Kepuasaan User dalam Menggunakan APlikasi SIM ASN Menggunakan Metode Website Quality

Implementation of the State Civil Apparatus Management Information System (SIM ASN) is a must. The ASN SIM is not only an administrative tool, but is a digital ecosystem that integrates all personnel application services. The problem that occurs in the ASN SIM application is that users find it difficult to complete the complete history requested by the ASN SIM in the personnel database to update employee data history. The aim of this study is to assess the impact of three factors on user satisfaction: application quality, user-friendliness, and interaction quality. The evaluation process is based on the Website Quality technique, which takes into account multiple aspects of website quality, such as as information content, security, usability, speed, and interface design. Respondents in this study were frequent users of the ASN SIM Application. Questionnaires were used to gather information about user opinions and experiences with the quality of the program. To characterize the degree of user satisfaction and the variables influencing it, data analysis was carried out using both statistical and qualitative methodologies. In order to enhance the user experience and efficacy of using the ASN SIM Application in the everyday work environment, it is intended that the research findings will offer comprehensive insight into the areas that require further development. This study adds to the body of knowledge about user satisfaction evaluation in the context of government apps and may serve as a model for future research on the subject.

Examining the evolutionary trends of mobile banking platforms in Nigeria

This paper takes a critical review of the evolutionary trend of mobile banking platforms deployed by commercial banks in Nigeria, with the aim to recommend a more secure and robust one. It identifies the strengths and weaknesses of each and highlights the factors that led to the invention of the next succeeding one. The mobile banking platforms reviewed includes Short Messaging Service (SMS), Interactive Voice Response (IVR), Unstructured Supplementary Service Data (USSD), Wireless Application Protocol (WAP), SIM Application Toolkit (SAT), and Application (APP) based platforms. Many of these mobile banking platforms are still utilized by most commercial banks in Nigeria today. However, it is obvious that, although most commercial banks combine two or more of the mobile banking platforms in order to get better result, there are inherent security problems and other challenges in them, which need to be addressed. Having a mobile banking platform (APPbased) with inbuilt ability to confirm a user’s authenticity before his transaction is completed, would bring a better security check and thereby bring enhancement to mobile banking transactions. The Application is made more flexible for users by allowing more than one user to use the application to transact once installed in a phone. It is as well equipped with more functionalities like including means for users to: enable/disable their SMS alerts, Change their SMS phone number, Edit their residential address, and Update their next of kin information, as their needs may arise.

Secondary ion mass spectrometry for bone research.

The purpose of this Tutorial is to highlight the suitability of time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS) and OrbiTrap™ SIMS (Orbi-SIMS) in bone research by introducing fundamentals and best practices of bone analysis with these mass spectrometric imaging (MSI) techniques. The Tutorial includes sample preparation, determination of best-suited measurement settings, data acquisition, and data evaluation, as well as a brief overview of SIMS applications in bone research in the current literature. SIMS is a powerful analytical technique that allows simultaneous analysis and visualization of mineralized and nonmineralized bone tissue, bone marrow as well as implanted biomaterials, and interfaces between bone and implants. Compared to histological staining, which is the standard analytical procedure in bone research, SIMS provides chemical imaging of nonstained bone sections that offers insights beyond what is conventionally obtained. The Tutorial highlights the versatility of ToF- and Orbi-SIMS in addressing important questions in bone research. By illustrating the value of these MSI techniques, it demonstrates how they can contribute to advance progress in bone research.

EVALUATION OF THE QUEUE SYSTEM OF A DRIVING LICENSE APPLICATION AT KEPOLISIAN SUMBAWA BESAR

A driving License (SIM) is a card that a motorized vehicle driver must own to prove the eligibility to drive a motorized vehicle. There are still many drivers who do not have a SIM. One of the reasons drivers don't apply for a driving license is because they object to follow every procedure in making a driver's license, which takes a long time and causes long queues every day. The application for a driver's license in a city or district is only in one place, namely at the City Police. As a result, many applicants apply for a driver's license in the queue system. This problem also occurs in the SIM-making service system at the Sumbawa Police Station. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the queuing system for SIM-making services at the Sumbawa Besar Resort Police using the queuing theory method. There are two types of submissions in applying for a SIM, namely a new application and an application for an extension of a SIM, and the queuing system model used is Single Channel-Multi Phase. There are three phases in applying for a new SIM: the registration phase, photo phase, and test phase. Meanwhile, the application for a SIM extension has two steps: registration and photos. Based on the results of the analysis, the use of one service in each phase has not been optimal in overcoming the number of queues in the new SIM application process because there is still a steady-state (ρ) greater than one and the number of applicants is still queuing in the system, namely on Monday (phase test), Wednesday (test phase) and Friday (photo phase and test phase). Therefore, it is proposed to add one more service on that day and phase so that the stadium condition (ρ) is less than one and there is only one applicant in the queue (Lq).

SISTEM INFORMASI PELAYANAN SIM

The driving license administration service system is a special service provided by Nasional Police to people who want to make a SIM. This service system can be done online. The current application has made it a lot easier in the process of making up the SIM card production. However, there are some problems related to internal reports that must be reported because the service is not yet available in an existing application, so some recapitulation processes are still done conventionally and technical constraints on the server network. This study aims to create a service management information system application (SIMPEL SIM) that can provide solutions to internal reporting and server network technical constraints. The method used software development is waterflow. This application handles the printing of bank payment receipts automatically, granting the applicant's registration number automatically, printing the SIM application form on the form provided. Verification of the completeness of the file, validation of the score of the theory test, practice 1 and practice 2, validation of sim issuance and printing of temporary sim numbers if there is a technical problem in the existing network server. The use of the SIMPEL SIM application makes it easy to recapitulate internal reporting and can improve public services.

Combining secondary ion mass spectrometry image depth profiling and single particle inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry to investigate the uptake and biodistribution of gold nanoparticles in Caenorhabditis elegans

Analytical techniques capable of determining the spatial distribution and quantity (mass and/or particle number) of engineered nanomaterials in organisms are essential for characterizing nano-bio interactions and for nanomaterial risk assessments. Here, we combine the use of dynamic secondary ion mass spectrometry (dynamic SIMS) and single particle inductively coupled mass spectrometry (spICP-MS) techniques to determine the biodistribution and quantity of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) ingested by Caenorhabditis elegans. We report the application of SIMS in image depth profiling mode for visualizing, identifying, and characterizing the biodistribution of AuNPs ingested by nematodes in both the lateral and z (depth) dimensions. In parallel, conventional- and sp-ICP-MS quantified the mean number of AuNPs within the nematode, ranging from 2 to 36 NPs depending on the size of AuNP. The complementary data from both SIMS image depth profiling and spICP-MS provides a complete view of the uptake, translocation, and size distribution of ingested NPs within Caenorhabditis elegans.

Electrical properties of cometary dust particles derived from line shapes of TOF-SIMS spectra measured by the ROSETTA/COSIMA instrument

Between Aug. 2014 and Sept. 2016, while ESA’s cornerstone mission Rosetta was operating in the vicinity of the nucleus and in the coma of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko, the COSIMA instrument collected a large number of dust particles with diameters up to a millimeter. Positive or negative ions were detected by a time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometer (TOF-SIMS) and the composition of selected particles was deduced. Many of the negative ion mass spectra show, besides mass peaks at the correct position, an additional, extended contribution at the lower mass side caused by partial charging of the dust. This effect, usually avoided in SIMS applications, can in our case be used to obtain information on the electrical properties of the collected cometary dust particles, such as the specific resistivity (ρr>1.2⋅1010Ωm) and the real part of the relative electrical permittivity (εr<1.2). From these values a lower limit for the porosity is derived (P>0.8).

Visualization of metallodrugs in single cells by secondary ion mass spectrometry imaging.

Secondary ion mass spectrometry, including nanoscale secondary ion mass spectrometry (NanoSIMS) and time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS), has emerged as a powerful tool for biological imaging, especially for single cell imaging. SIMS imaging can provide information on subcellular distribution of endogenous and exogenous chemicals, including metallodrugs, from membrane through to cytoplasm and nucleus without labeling, and with high spatial resolution and chemical specificity. In this mini-review, we summarize recent progress in the field of SIMS imaging, particularly in the characterization of the subcellular distribution of metallodrugs. We anticipate that the SIMS imaging method will be widely applied to visualize subcellular distributions of drugs and drug candidates in single cells, exerting significant influence on early drug evaluation and metabolism in medicinal and pharmaceutical chemistry. Recent progress of SIMS applications in characterizing the subcellular distributions of metallodrugs was summarized.

Technology Inequality: Opportunities and Challenges for Mobile Financial Services

Technology has been a pivotal and successful enabler of financial inclusion. However, even with each technical evolution, sets of technical, cost, competition, capacity and access challenges persist. CFI Fellow Leon Perlman looks at the advantages, disadvantages and challenges that fasten on the existing and evolving technologies, bearer services, access platforms and user devices for mobile financial services (MFS) in Technology Inequality: Opportunities and Challenges for Mobile Financial Services. His on-the-ground research conducted in 12 different countries finds that smartphone-enabled MFS is not an impending panacea for financial inclusion. Due to the slow spread of reliable, high-quality 3G coverage and sufficiently capable smartphones, the majority of MFS will be accessed on feature phones, using Unstructured Supplementary Service Data (USSD), SIM Application Toolkit (STK) and java-applets, rather than internet-enabled smartphones, for the forseeable future.

CA-TIMS zircon U–Pb dating of felsic ignimbrite from the Binchuan section: Implications for the termination age of Emeishan large igneous province

The age of the Emeishan lavas in SW China remains poorly constrained because the extrusive rocks are (1) thermally overprinted and so represent an open system unsuitable for 40Ar/39Ar geochronology and (2) in most cases devoid of zircon so that it is impossible for the application of U–Pb geochronology. Existing radiometric age constraints of Emeishan large igneous province are mainly from the application of SIMS and LA-ICP-MS U–Pb techniques to zircons from mafic and felsic intrusions, which represent indirect constraints for the lavas. In an attempt to directly determine the age of the Emeishan lava succession, high-resolution chemical abrasion-thermal ionization mass spectrometry (CA-TIMS) zircon U–Pb techniques have been used on the felsic ignimbrite at the uppermost part of the Emeishan lava succession. These techniques have yielded a weighted mean 206Pb/238U age of 259.1 ± 0.5 Ma (n = 6; MSWD = 0.7). We interpret this age as the termination age of the Emeishan flood basalts. The age of the Guadalupian–Lopingian boundary is still unconstrained by high-resolution geochronology but is likely to be close to our new age for this felsic ignimbrite.

A beneficial application of backside SIMS for the depth profiling characterization of implanted silicon

AbstractAfter ion implantation, annealing is needed to activate dopant and recover crystalline. However, in some annealing conditions there is a possibility that activation annealing forms defects in the implanted region, which may cause errors in SIMS depth profiles. The purpose of this study is to make clear the influence of defects generated during annealing on the conventional front‐side SIMS (FSS) depth profiles, and to provide proper measurement condition to get accurate depth profiles using back‐side SIMS (BSS) technique as another beneficial application. In this study, BF2 were implanted into crystalline silicon, and three different samples were treated, respectively, as implanted, 750 and 900° annealing. In an as‐implanted sample, BSS depth profiles of boron confirmed those obtained by FSS. On the other hand, in annealed samples, BSS depth profiles were steeper than those of FSS. This result suggests that the degradation of depth resolution in FSS cannot be explained only by the effect of ion mixing due to primary ions, but may be related with the crystalline structure in the implanted region. Therefore, BSS techniques can also be indispensable for getting more precise depth profiles in the implanted region of silicon. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley &amp; Sons, Ltd.
