The management of waste retribution in Semarang City has encountered problems with low target achievement of retribution. This can hamper the government's efforts in providing optimal waste management services. This study aims to describe and analyze the management of waste retribution as a reference to plan for increasing the target and realization achievement of waste retribution in Semarang City. This research uses a qualitative approach with a phenomenological method involving in-depth interviews, data reduction, inductive analysis, data validity, and drawing conclusions, using an administrative theory approach with the principles of planning, organizing, directing, and controlling as a framework for thinking about waste retribution management. The results show that the planning process is not yet optimal, the organization is not yet effective, the direction of fund use is quite effective, and the control is strict but financial reporting needs improvement in transparency and accountability.

This study develops a Decision Support System (DSS) for selecting outstanding students at SDN Kedunglumbu using the Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) method. The main goal of this DSS is to help the school determine outstanding students more objectively and efficiently. The SAW method was chosen for its ability to provide weighted sums of relevant criteria, ensuring accurate and fair decisions. The system development follows a waterfall approach, with structured stages from planning to implementation. The evaluation criteria include PPKN, Indonesian Language, Science, Social Studies, and Mathematics, with seven students as the evaluated alternatives. The implementation of the DSS successfully displays information about outstanding students clearly, with Natasha Cahya Putri Ayu selected as the outstanding student with the highest preference score of 0.786. System testing using the blackbox testing method confirms that the system operates as expected, and calculations using the SAW method are consistent with manual calculations. Overall, the developed DSS successfully facilitates the selection process of outstanding students efficiently and objectively, while the SAW method proves effective in providing reliable results and supporting better decision-making in the educational environment.

This study aims to apply the K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) algorithm to predict stunting status in young children based on height and weight data. Stunting is a growth failure condition caused by chronic malnutrition that negatively impacts children's physical and mental development. The dataset includes height, weight, and stunting status of children. The results show that the KNN model with k=3 achieved 100% accuracy on the test data. Evaluation using the confusion matrix and classification report indicates perfect precision, recall, and F1-score for each class. Data normalization with StandardScaler improved the model's performance by ensuring all features are on the same scale. The KNN algorithm proves to be a simple yet effective method for predicting stunting, demonstrating significant potential for early detection and health intervention in children. This study recommends using a larger and more diverse dataset, as well as incorporating additional relevant features to enhance model accuracy. Implementing the model in a web or mobile application is also suggested to assist healthcare professionals in the field.
