In the modern industrial world, robots like mechanical arms in automotive factories or packaging lines must move quickly and safely. For this, a real-time operating sistem (RTOS) is needed—think of it as a "super-fast brain" that ensures the robot reacts instantly to commands, without delays or errors. This paper analyzes popular RTOS like FreeRTOS and VxWorks for controlling industrial robots, focusing on evaluating performance (speed of operation) and stability (long-term reliability). We conducted tests in a lab using a simple robot that moves its arm to pick up objects. Performance was measured by response time (how quickly the robot stops when encountering an obstacle, ideally under 10 milliseconds) and throughput (how many tasks it can complete per second). Stability was checked through simulations of disruptions, like heavy loads or interfered sensor signals, using metrics such as error rate and time variation (jitter). Results show that FreeRTOS is more efficient for small, affordable robots, with high performance (average response time of 4 ms) but moderate stability (5-10% errors during overload). In contrast, VxWorks excels in stability (errors <2%, stable for up to 95% of tasks on time) for large factory robots, though it requires stronger hardware. Our analysis uses simple models like graphs and repeated tests, without complex formulas, to prove that the right RTOS can boost production efficiency by up to 25% and reduce accident risks.

This study examines the strategic role of the Supreme Audit Agency (BPK) of the Republic of Indonesia in ensuring transparent, accountable, and aligned state financial management in line with national goals. As an independent state institution, the BPK has a constitutional mandate to audit state financial management and accountability objectively and free from intervention by any party. This study uses a legal method with a normative juridical approach, accompanied by descriptive analysis and systematic interpretation of data from literature studies. The results show that the BPK has broad authority in auditing state finances, both for the central government, regional governments, and other public institutions. However, its implementation still faces obstacles such as a lack of internal transparency, overlap with internal government oversight, and limited resources for comprehensive oversight. To address these issues, the BPK needs to strengthen its internal systems, increase auditor capacity, develop more systematic audit result reporting guidelines, and build cross-agency coordination to make its external oversight function more effective, transparent, and capable of supporting clean and integrated governance.

This study aims to analyze community perceptions of the application of legal and economic principles of food security in Rias Village, Toboali District. Food security is a crucial issue because it is directly related to survival, welfare, and regional economic stability. However, the community's understanding of food security is often limited to food availability, without considering its relationship with legislation and the dynamics of the village economy. The research method used was qualitative with a descriptive approach that included in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation of the local community. The results of the study show that the people of Rias Village have a positive perception of the importance of food security, especially from an economic perspective, such as market access, food prices, and business capital. However, understanding of legal aspects is still limited, especially regarding government and local regulations that should protect the community's right to access food. This perception confirms that the successful implementation of food security principles in Rias Village is influenced by legal policies that favor the community and economic strategies that encourage local food self-sufficiency.
