Utilization of Information System in Dies Control for Improvement of Quality and Production Efficiency in Manufacturing Industry

Utilization of Information Systems in Dies Control for Improvement of Quality and Production Efficiency in Manufacturing Industry is a system that is used to anticipate damage to dies before the dies are used, because if a damaged dies is used will be very detrimental to the company. There are 4 views: Dies master, Entry production, Dies maintenance and dashboard. Dies master is a page used for initial dies data input. Entry Production is a page that is used to input daily production output because from this page you will get actual OK production data and actual NG production which will be used to compare between the maximum use of dies and the number of actual OK production and actual NG production. If the sum of the actual Production OK and the actual NG production is greater than the maximum use of dies, the dies must be maintained immediately. Maintenance Dies serves as input data for maintenance Dies, in the maintenance dies page there are also 3 features: Entry Maintenance Dies functions as a date data input menu and only comments mainly because other data already exists on the master dies, Summary on Maintenance dies serves to display the date or last maintenance date and the last maintenance time interval with today, the Details on the Maintenance Dies function displays all dates if the summary only shows one last date the details display all dates, so you can find out how many times the dies have been maintained. and the last is this Dashboard function to display the results of all data that has been inputted. The main function is to display the status of dies, it will be seen if the red color of the dies has to be fixed, if the yellow color is warning because the number of hits is 90% of the maximum result of using dies, if green can still be used.

Factors Determining Intention to Continue Using E-HRM

The development of information technology has promoted organizational transformation through the utilization of an electronic information system. This research aimed to identify factors that influence continuous intention to use E-HRM. This empirical research applies the Technology Acceptance Model and Cognitive Model for identifying significantly impacted areas of continuous intention to use E-HRM in a highly dynamic environment. The data were collected using questionnaires delivered directly to respondents. The sample was 100 employees of ESQ Group selected through random sampling. The variables used were subjective norms (X1), perceived behavioral control (X2), perceived innovativeness (Y1), cognitive absorption (Y2), satisfaction (Y3), and continuous intention to use E-HRM (Y4). Statistical analysis using Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) with Smart PLS was applied. The results revealed that behavioral control (X2) did not influence the continuous intention to use E-HRM (Y4) and that cognitive absorption (Y2) and satisfaction (Y3) did not significantly influence continuous intention to use E-HRM (Y4). Subjective norms (X1) significantly influenced both perceived innovativeness (Y1) and continuous intention to use E-HRM (Y4), perceived behavioral control (X2) significantly influenced both perceived innovativeness (Y1) and cognitive absorption (Y2), and perceived innovativeness (Y1) significantly influenced both satisfaction (Y3) and continuous intention to use E-HRM (Y4).

The role of facilitating condition in enhancing user’s continuance intention

Many organizations are moving toward utilizing information system to enhance eficiency in everyday task. Although the influence of facilitating condition are important to the success of information system implementation, the literature lacks empirical research on tthe relationship between facilitating condition and continuance intention in private higher leaning institution. In this article, the researchers introduce a simple model based on information systems (IS) and user behavior literature to examine the effect of facilitating condition on the intention to continue using e-campus. A paper-and-pencil self-administered questionnaire survey with 500 users of Malaysian private higher learning institution is carried out to evaluate the proposed model.

Exploring Opportunities with Experimental Use of Communicative Spaces to Overcome Defensive Routines and Increase Information Systems Utilization

Both organizations and the information technology (IT) community have long worked to overcome the common problem of dissatisfaction with IT investments’ outcomes in multiple ways. Much attention has been on users’ involvement in IT design, while users’ engagement in later further utilization of IT is less explored. This paper reports on action research (AR) that sought to stimulate local learning processes and increase the exploitation of a case-handling system. The experiment is done in a county administration where the senior management has, for some time, felt that the IT is not fully utilized. The local intervention was based on an awareness of a need to overcome defensive routines to establish communicative spaces to facilitate communication between various units with strong local identities. The AR project was carried out in three local interventions and presented as an experimental approach. We could not guarantee that the design could overcome the issues identified after the first round of interviews with senior management and department managers. The intervention process espoused various defensive routines, even some that the communicative space approach could not overcome. The outcomes from the three experiments are, therefore, mixed. The results indicate that creating communicative spaces is a viable approach to engaging users in systems development. Nevertheless, defensive routines, reluctant managers, and communities of practices hamper the development of communicative spaces.

Development of Intelligent Information System for Digital Cultural Contents

A significant amount of digital cultural contents is shared online, but learners do not know where subject matter content is or how to find it. Therefore, there is a need for a service to improve educational quality by effectively providing relevant information in response to searches for content that is useful to learners. This study developed and tested the usability and utility of an intelligent information system that effectively searches and visualizes digital cultural contents. The system collects data on digital cultural contents, automatically classifies them, and creates content triple data to automatically display the results with a 3D timeline, knowledge network map, and keyword relation network map through content search, triple search, and keyword search. We also conducted a survey and in-depth interviews to verify users’ satisfaction with respect to the use and utility of the system. For the experiment, we developed survey questions to measure user satisfaction and conducted in-depth interviews regarding the system’s utility with a total of 65 subjects. The results show that the response for satisfaction with regard to the use and utility was generally “satisfied”. In addition, the system stability was evaluated as “high”.

Routine health information system utilization for evidence-based decision making in Amhara national regional state, northwest Ethiopia: a multi-level analysis

BackgroundHealth Information System is the key to making evidence-based decisions. Ethiopia has been implementing the Health Management Information System (HMIS) since 2008 to collect routine health data and revised it in 2017. However, the evidence is meager on the use of routine health information for decision making among department heads in the health facilities. The study aimed to assess the proportion of routine health information systems utilization for evidence-based decisions and factors associated with it.MethodA cross-sectional study was carried out among 386 department heads from 83 health facilities in ten selected districts in the Amhara region Northwest of Ethiopia from April to May 2019. The single population proportion formula was applied to estimate the sample size taking into account the proportion of data use 0.69, margin of error 0.05, and the critical value 1.96 at the 95% CI. The final sample size was estimated at 394 by considering 1.5 as a design effect and 5% non-response. The study participants were selected using a simple random sampling technique. Descriptive statistics mean and percentage were calculated. The study employed a generalized linear mixed-effect model. Adjusted Odds Ratio (AOR) and the 95% CI were calculated. Variables with p value < 0.05 were considered as predictors of routine health information system use.ResultProportion of information use among department heads for decision making was estimated at 46%. Displaying demographic (AOR = 12.42, 95% CI [5.52, 27.98]) and performance (AOR = 1.68; 95% CI [1.33, 2.11]) data for monitoring, and providing feedback to HMIS unit (AOR = 2.29; 95% CI [1.05, 5.00]) were individual (level-1) predictors. Maintaining performance monitoring team minute (AOR = 3.53; 95% CI [1.61, 7.75]), receiving senior management directives (AOR = 3.56; 95% CI [1.76, 7.19]), supervision (AOR = 2.84; 95% CI [1.33, 6.07]), using HMIS data for target setting (AOR = 3.43; 95% CI [1.66, 7.09]), and work location (AOR = 0.16; 95% CI [0.07, 0.39]) were organizational (level-2) explanatory variables.ConclusionThe proportion of routine health information utilization for decision making was low. Displaying demographic and performance data, providing feedback to HMIS unit, maintaining performance monitoring team minute, conducting supervision, using HMIS data for target setting, and work location were factors associated with the use of routine health information for decision making. Therefore, strengthening the capacity of department heads on data displaying, supervision, feedback mechanisms, and engagement of senior management are highly recommended.

Texton Based Segmentation for Road Defect Detection from Aerial Imagery

Road defect such as potholes and road cracks, became a problem that arose every year in Indonesia. It could endanger drivers and damage the vehicles. It also obstructed the goods distribution via land transportation that had major impact to the economy. To handle this problem, the government released an online complaints system that utilized information system and GPS technology. To follow up the complaints especially road defect problem, a survey was conducted to assess the damage. Manual survey became less effective for large road area and might disturb the traffic. Therefore, we used road aerial imagery captured by Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). The proposed method used texton combined with K-Nearest Neighbor (K-NN) to segment the road area and Support Vector Machine (SVM) to detect the road defect. Morphological operation followed by blob analysis was performed to locate, measure, and determine the type of defect. The experiment showed that the proposed method able to segment the road area and detect road defect from aerial imagery with good Boundary F1 score.

GIS spatial modelling for seismic risk assessment based on exposure, resilience, and capacity indicators to seismic hazard: a case study of Pahang, Malaysia

Various techniques and frameworks for an evaluation of seismic vulnerability have been developed and established in previous studies. However, some techniques demand a significant amount of empirical data currently not readily available in developing countries. Therefore, this study proposes a new seismic risk evaluation method at the local district level. A holistic model was constructed for the purpose of assessing potential seismic vulnerability based on appropriate indices and their relative contribution towards vulnerability and coping capacity. It allowed the estimation of vulnerability in terms of exposure, resilience, and capacity factors. Then, utilization of Geographical Information System (GIS) tools resulted in the generation of a total vulnerability map via integration of the study variables to highlight the socio-economic and physical characteristics of vulnerability for the districts in Pahang, Malaysia. Subsequently, a seismic risk map of the study area was derived by overlying the derived map with the seismic hazard map. Consequently, the study revealed the highest levels of seismic risk were concentrated in the central-west of the Pahang region, namely the Bentong district. In contrast, the least vulnerable areas encompassed the Pekan and Jerantut areas, which were located in the eastern region. In brief, the study findings would serve as the foundation towards reducing the country’s vulnerability to disasters.

Gender Differences in the Perception of a Student Information System

There is growing recognition that electronic student information systems support college administrations and enhance student performance. These systems must fulfill their user’s needs by understanding gender differences among users. This study analyzes gender variations concerning the utilization of online student information systems (SIS), with its central concern being how the dynamics of user experience (UX) are affected. A broad agreement is evident throughout the literature that gender is a crucial aspect when assessing human-computer interactions. Consequently, usability factors are brought into question, although there is some indication among researchers that too much weight is being applied. Study findings are gathered to represent the hedonic and pragmatic qualities of users, with clarifications of students’ perspectives deducted from qualitative methods, together with a UX examination made via Kuwait’s Public Authority for Applied Education and Training (PAAET) institute. Results suggest that none of the differing approaches and habits the two genders have toward UX should be considered as substantial, with the overall sample recording a perception of UX that is “slightly positive”. Furthermore, this research highlights difficulties with usability that developers may wish to take onboard for system upgrades.

Impact of Clinical Practice Guidelines on Blood Glucose Test Strip Prescription Rates in Manitoba and Saskatchewan (Canada): An Interrupted Time-Series Analysis

ObjectivesOur aim in this study was to assess the impact of the Diabetes Canada Dissemination & Implementation strategy on population-level prescription rates of blood glucose test strips. MethodsWe extracted all diabetes-related drugs and test strip claims in Manitoba and Saskatchewan between January 1, 2000 and September 30, 2015 from the Canadian Institute for Health Information’s National Prescription Drug Utilization Information System. The primary outcome was the proportion of the cohort in each quarter who had been dispensed strips in accordance with the Diabetes Canada 2013 guidelines. We conducted an interrupted time-series analysis examining prescribing trends overall and by drug groups. ResultsThe overall average sample size per quarter was 57,576 (standard deviation [SD]=12,320) and 49,533 (SD=10,206) individuals; the average age was 62.1 (SD=0.3) and 63.8 (SD=0.3) years, and the average proportion of total beneficiaries in the sample was 12.7% (SD=1.9%) and 12.6% (SD=1.7%) for Manitoba and Saskatchewan, respectively. On average preintervention, 27.9% (SD=0.68%, Manitoba) and 31.9% (SD=0.73%, Saskatchewan) of the sampled patients used strips according to the guidelines. On average postintervention, 26.5% (SD=0.29%, Manitoba) and 30.6% (SD=0.53%, Saskatchewan) of the patients used strips according to the guidelines. None of the interrupted time-series models reached statistical significance (p values ranging from 0.44 to 0.98 for Manitoba and 0.13 to 0.81 for Saskatchewan, depending on drug group). ConclusionsThe guideline and its Dissemination & Implementation strategy did not change strip prescribing. Potential reasons include complexity of the recommendations, lack of penetrance to primary care physicians and/or disagreement with recommendations.

PENERAPAN GRAPH DATABASE UNTUK SISTEM REKOMENDASI KOLEKSI PERPUSTAKAAN DI ERA BIG DATA

The library in its development utilizes information systems to provide easy access to collections by providing digital libraries. Digital libraries really need database support that is suitable to handle the needs of fast and accurate data access in digital storage space. Currently in the application of digital libraries in Higher Education still using traditional databases namely relational databases. The disadvantages of this database system are that the data is stored in a structured manner so that the difficulty when dealing with changes in data structure is due to the development of volume and data variations. Another disadvantage is that it is difficult to handle varied data relationships that arise between collections and users so that requiring complicated join operations results in slow database operations. In this paper, we will explain the application of graph database as a solution offered for problems that occur in digital libraries. In this study interviews and observations were used to collect data and determine input, process and output needs. Implementation is done by designing a database graph that fits the needs of the library, then executes the query in accordance with the design. In library information systems, the relationship that exists between collection data and user data is very necessary. Graph data base is the right alternative to describe relationships (networks) that occur between collections and users. By utilizing the relationships that are intertwined between the data, the library collection recommendation system can be explained based on these relationships.
