Communication is a fundamental human need for conveying information and ideas. However, individuals who are deaf and mute face difficulties in communicating with the broader community that does not understand sign language. This study aims to design and implement a real-time static sign language translator into speech using five flex sensors, an MPU6050 sensor, a Raspberry Pi Pico, an ADS1115 ADC module, and a DFPlayer Mini module as the audio output medium. Testing results show that the device successfully recognizes finger movements and hand orientation. The system is capable of playing audio output corresponding to recognized gestures, with the shortest latency recorded at 1.1 seconds and the longest at 2.8 seconds, achieving a detection accuracy rate of 75% based on 60 tests across 12 sign words. This device supports the translation of 12 simple sign words. The implementation demonstrates potential as an assistive communication tool, although further development is needed to improve accuracy, expand vocabulary, and conduct trials directly with deaf or mute users.

Tangerang City has the most applications in Indonesia, with 222 applications. All of these applications are supported by more than 100 servers located in the data center of the Tangerang City Communication and Information Agency. The large number of servers and applications that are managed brings up new problems in the midst of increasing complex cyber threats, especially in government data centers. One of them is how to monitor and respond quickly when there is an attack on the existing system. The implementation of a cyber security system based on Wazuh, Shuffle, and YARA is able to monitor threats in realtime and automate responses against attacks. Wazuh acts as a log-based monitoring and detection platform and behavior analysis, Shuffle is used to automate incident response through integrated workflow, and YARA is applied for signature-based malware identification. The PPDIOO (Prepare, Plan, Design, Implement, Operate, Optimize) method used in this research is used as a framework in designing and evaluating the system. From the research conducted, it is expected that Wazuh successfully monitors anomalies that occur on the server which will then be forwarded to Shuffle to automate the next steps to be taken. YARA integrated with Wazuh also successfully detects and quarantines malicious files that enter the server automatically based on the available signature list.

The Information System registration module for the Regional Taxpayer Identification Number (NPWPD) was developed using the Laravel framework and implemented by the Taxpayer Identification Agency (BPPKAD) at Kediri City. The system was designed to digitize the NPWPD registration process, which was previously done manually. This traditional approach often led to long queues, extended processing times, and, at times, errors in data entry. The new system offers several key advantages, including an online registration form that allows taxpayers to upload required documents such as photos of ID cards, business locations, and other necessary paperwork. Data validation is performed by officers to ensure accuracy, and automatic notifications are sent to taxpayers, informing them of the status of their applications. The implementation of this system has had several positive impacts, such as significantly improving the efficiency of administrative processes, reducing the manual workload for officers, and increasing transparency and accountability in public services. Moreover, it has improved customer satisfaction by providing faster, more accurate, and more responsive services. This system supports the creation of a streamlined, user-friendly, and effective method for taxpayers to register for NPWPD online, enhancing the overall quality of public sector service delivery.

The advancement of technology and information, which coincides with digitalization alongside the development of Artificial Intelligence (AI), has colored human social life around the world. Currently, cadets of the Naval Academy often use gadgets/digital tools to access information or other media. With this, there are emerging threats that are very dangerous for individuals and the state. An currently prevalent case is Cyber Crime Identity Theft. Cyber crime identity theft refers to the crime of stealing someone's personal information online for the purpose of fraud or financial gain by stealing personal data such as names, identity numbers, and financial information, to carry out illegal transactions or obtain illegal benefits, which can lead to financial loss and damage the victim's reputation. Indonesia still has a very high number of cases of cyber crime identity theft, but it should be preventable by fostering. the cyber security awareness of cadets at the Naval Academy of the Indonesian National Armed Forces. The conclusion of this research is that by strengthening modern technological infrastructure, both equipment and administrative services, developing modern software and hardware with strong security systems, and tightening regulations regarding access to users' personal data in cyber services, supported by strengthening cyber security institutions, it can enhance the cyber security awareness of cadets at the Naval Academy of the Indonesian National Armed Forces.

The UNAMA Library employs information systems to enhance its academic services. Nevertheless, its administrative framework continues to encounter obstacles, such as inadequate service system support for users, constrained resources allocated for the management and upkeep of the system, an absence of standardized protocols for addressing technical challenges, and insufficient assessment system efficacy. If these issues remain unaddressed, the operational effectiveness of the library information system will be compromised, thereby thwarting the objective of delivering dependable information services. This investigation seeks to illuminate the maturity level of information system governance as delineated by COBIT 2019 within the Decision Support Systems (DSS) domain, specifically focusing on the DSS01 (Manage Operations) and DSS02 (Manage Service Requests and Incidents) processes. The findings suggest that the degree of information system governance capability the UNAMA Library is situated at the Established Process level (level 3), signifying that the process has undergone implementation; however, it has yet to be comprehensively documented and consistently evaluated. Moreover, a disparity persists between the existing state and the anticipated capability level of the organization, particularly concerning IT operations management, the standardization incident handling, and the documentation of operational procedures. An elucidation of the expected level is articulated, especially in terms of operational standards, incident documentation, and IT infrastructure oversight. Recommendations encompass the formulation of standard operating procedures (SOPs), the enhancement of documentation practices, and periodic assessments grounded in COBIT 2019. These findings are anticipated to assist libraries in augmenting the efficacy of information systems governance and the quality of IT services.

Outcome-Based Education (OBE) has emerged as a strategic approach to improving graduate quality in higher education, including pastoral colleges. The pastoral education context in Indonesia, particularly in island regions such as Nias, requires the integration of academic, spiritual, and pastoral dimensions in the learning process. This study aims to analyze the strategies for implementing OBE at the Pastoral College Dian Mandala Gunungsitoli and to identify its supporting factors and challenges. A qualitative research design with a literature review approach was applied, drawing on 25 scientific articles published between 2021 and 2025. The analysis involved identifying main themes, categorizing supporting and challenging factors, and synthesizing strategies for implementation. The findings indicate that OBE implementation includes developing curriculum documents aligned with the Indonesian National Qualification Framework (KKNI) and National Standards of Higher Education (SN-Dikti), strengthening faculty capacity through training, integrating innovative learning models, and applying authentic assessment that evaluates both academic and spiritual competencies. Supporting factors consist of institutional leadership commitment, the availability of curriculum information systems, and collaboration with external stakeholders. Major challenges involve limited faculty understanding of OBE, inadequate technological infrastructure, and resistance to changes in academic culture. This study concludes that OBE can enhance graduates’ competencies and strengthen pastoral identity, provided that faculty training, internal quality assurance systems, and the integration of local wisdom into the curriculum are consistently developed.

Public health is a crucial aspect of improving well-being, particularly at the village level. However, in Srigading Village, Lawang District, Malang Regency, access to information related to health services remains a significant challenge, resulting in suboptimal utilization of Posyandu and Puskesmas services. To address this issue, a web application called “Srigading Sehat” has been developed as a digital platform providing health service information through interactive maps and service schedules. This community service activity employs the IDEA approach (Identify Objective, Design Action Steps, Engage Our Plan, Assess and Follow Up) as a systematic framework. The Identify Objective stage identified limitations in health information access; Design Action Steps designed a participatory learning-based application development model; Engage Our Plan implemented application development, socialization, and training for 25 participants comprising village officials, posyandu cadres, and the general community; and Assess and Follow Up evaluated achievements through Firebase Analytics monitoring. Results showed increased health information access marked by 500 health information page visits within the first 30 days of launch, with total Firebase reads reaching 631 (+1,026.8%). Four village health facilities are actively registered and using the application to independently update their service information. This application is anticipated to serve as an appropriate technological innovation contributing to the enhancement of health services at the village level.

The development of information technology has given rise to a new form of business transaction: the electronic contract. This contract form replaces the traditional process that requires a physical meeting between the parties. However, questions arise regarding the validity of e-contracts from the perspective of Indonesian civil law, specifically based on Article 1320 of the Indonesian Civil Code (KUHPerdata) and the provisions of Law Number 11 of 2008 concerning Electronic Information and Transactions (UU ITE). This research aims to analyze the validity of electronic contracts as legally binding agreements and to assess the extent to which the ITE Law can serve as their legal basis. Using a normative juridical legal research method, the research results show that e-contracts are valid and binding as long as they meet the requirements for the validity of an agreement under Article 1320 of the Civil Code, namely consent, capacity, a specific object, and a lawful cause. The ITE Law expands the recognition of electronic evidence and digital signatures as valid evidence in civil law. Thus, electronic contracts have the same legal force as conventional contracts, as long as they meet the principles of free will and the integrity of a reliable electronic system.

This research investigates the execution of data-informed and inclusive regional development planning within the Regional Development Planning Agency (Bappeda) of Sidoarjo Regency, concentrating on four analytical aspects: data integration and management abilities, the efficiency of participatory processes, technical and institutional obstacles concerning interoperability, and capacity-building strategies for facilitators tasked with translating public aspirations into planning priorities. The study is positioned within the national framework to establish evidence-based and participatory planning in reaction to the growing complexity regional development. Despite Bappeda Sidoarjo implementing multiple data platforms and participatory channels such Musrenbang forums, online submission systems, and sector-specific information systems the results indicate that issues like data fragmentation, insufficient digital literacy, and ineffective follow-up mechanisms continue to impede planning effectiveness. Employing qualitative methodology that includes in-depth interviews, observation, and document review, the research reveals that data integration has not reached single source of truth because of the lack of a cohesive data architecture and compatible standards among government entities. Participatory methods have increased inclusivity, but the quality of proposals and verification processes is still variable, hindering the incorporation of grassroots feedback into planning priorities. Moreover, the ability of facilitators the subdistrict and village levels is crucial in determining the quality of the compiled proposals. The research ends by highlighting the importance of improved data governance, increased actor capability, revised participatory processes, and clear follow-up mechanisms. Suggestions encompass constructing a unified data framework, offering ongoing technical training, standardizing digital Musrenbang processes, and establishing publicly available proposal-tracking system integrated within the yearly planning cycle.

Flooding is one of the most recurrent natural disasters in Central Java Province, particularly during the rainy season. Diverse geographical characteristics, high rainfall intensity, and rapid urban development contribute to the region’s high vulnerability to flood hazards. According to the Central Java Statistics Agency, a total of 414 flood events and 407,784 affected victims were recorded between 2019 and 2021. This study aims to develop a web-based Geographic Information System (GIS) capable of mapping the spatial distribution and impact levels of floods across Central Java. The methodology includes collecting flood event data from the Central Java Statistics Agency, processing spatial data such as administrative boundary shapefiles, performing attribute integration between spatial and non-spatial datasets, and creating thematic maps using QGIS. The visualization outputs were exported into an interactive web format using the qgis2web plugin and subsequently integrated into a website developed with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. The results show that the GIS system successfully visualizes flood-prone areas, identifies regions with high flood intensity, and enables users to explore detailed information through interactive digital maps. Additional website features—such as historical flood data, statistical summaries, and descriptive impact indicators—enhance the system's usefulness for disaster analysis. This study demonstrates the crucial role of GIS in supporting disaster mitigation, spatial planning, and policy evaluation related to flood management. Future research is recommended to incorporate more recent datasets and additional non-spatial variables such as rainfall intensity and floodwater depth to improve the system’s analytical accuracy and comprehensiveness.

The growing demand for transparency, accountability, and measurable performance has transformed higher education institutions into complex public organizations required to deliver reliable and stakeholder-oriented services. Within this governance-driven environment, institutional governance plays a fundamental role in shaping service excellence and institutional legitimacy. Drawing on a public administration perspective, this study examines how governance dimensions influence academic service performance in higher education. This research employs a qualitative descriptive-analytical design. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, document analysis, and institutional observations involving university leaders, academic administrators, faculty members, and students. The analysis focuses on governance dimensions—transparency, accountability, participation, effectiveness, and responsibility—and their integration into institutional systems such as performance management, quality assurance, and digital infrastructure. The findings reveal that governance frameworks are formally established through regulations and digital systems; however, their operational integration remains uneven. Transparency improves service reliability when supported by consistent information management, while accountability mechanisms tend to emphasize procedural compliance rather than performance-based evaluation. Stakeholder participation is institutionalized but largely consultative. The study concludes that service excellence in higher education is a governance-driven outcome that requires systemic alignment between governance principles, institutional capacity, and performance management processes. Strengthened governance integration enhances service reliability and institutional legitimacy.

The development of information technology has transformed trade from traditional markets to digital platforms, including Cash on Delivery (COD) payment systems. This study analyzes the integration of the COD system with the istishna contract in online transactions (specifically on Shopee), its implementation mechanisms, and its validity according to Islamic jurisprudence (fiqh muamalah). The research method used a descriptive qualitative approach through digital observation and literature review. The focus of the study was on pre-order or custom product transactions made after a specification agreement between the buyer (mustashni') and seller (shani'). The results showed that the COD system is valid in the istishna contract because it allows for final payment upon receipt of the goods. This is in accordance with Sharia law as long as the product specifications are clear, the price is transparent, and the buyer's right to khiyar is fulfilled to ensure the goods conform to the contract. As long as it is free from riba (usury), gharar (gharar), and tadlis (tadlis), the COD method in istishna transactions reflects fairness, openness, and benefits for both parties in the digital economy ecosystem.

This institution functions in disseminating information on tomato cultivation technology, strengthening access to production inputs, and enhancing farmers' bargaining power in marketing. However, several weaknesses were identified, such as low member participation in routine meetings and limited managerial skills among administrators. Overall, the existence of this farmer group has significantly contributed to increasing the knowledge, productivity, and independence of tomato farmers in Parabubu Village.

The development of information technology has encouraged various organizations, including cooperatives, to digitize their service systems. The Credit Cooperative (Kopdit) CU Mera Ndi Ate is one of the cooperatives that still uses a manual system in managing savings and loans, which causes the service process to be slow, inaccurate, and has a high risk of recording errors. This study aims to design and build a web-based savings and loans system that can be used by members of Kopdit CU Mera Ndi Ate. This system allows members to conduct transactions online, view transaction history, and monitor savings or loan balances. The research methods used are observation, interviews, and literature studies. The system development process uses a waterfall model with stages of analysis, design, implementation, and testing. The result of this study is a prototype of a web-based savings and loans information system that has main features such as member registration, transaction recording, financial data management, and automatic financial report generation. With the implementation of this system, it is hoped that the cooperative can improve work efficiency, speed up services, and provide easy access to information to all members.

Managing Regional Public Service Agency (Badan Layanan Umum Daerah/BLUD) hospitals requires planning and budgeting processes that are accountable, measurable, and aligned with service performance. In practice, BLUD planning is still constrained by fragmented applications (hospital information system/SIMRS, finance, human resources, e-office, and procurement), duplicate data entry, approval delays, and limited monitoring of process compliance. This study aims to analyze requirements and design a web-based BLUD planning information system using an Enterprise Application Integration (EAI) approach through middleware to improve cross-system interoperability, data consistency, and the timeliness of executive reporting. The study adopts the Design Science Research (DSR) framework, comprising problem identification, definition of solution objectives, artifact design and development, demonstration, evaluation, and communication/report writing. The proposed system includes a unit-based budget proposal module and item management, a role-based approval workflow (RBAC) with SLA tracking, a budget ceiling (pagu) master to benchmark proposals, audit trails and report exports, and an executive dashboard integrating budget perspectives, service indicators (e.g., bed occupancy rate/BOR and patient visits), and process compliance. It also provides an integration design via middleware (ESB/message broker) supported by a canonical data model (CDM) and traceable logging (trace_id/correlation_id). Evaluation using black-box testing and API contract testing indicates that the main planning workflow operates as intended and the integration interfaces are consistently defined, providing a foundation for staged implementation and further performance evaluation.
