This research aims to determine how the optimal stock portfolio is formed on the IDX Shariah Growth index in the period from November 2022 to March and from April to August 2023. The research results show that in the period from November 2022 to March 2023, six stocks were selected as candidates for the optimal portfolio, including SMDR, PWON, ISAT, TINS, HEAL, and INCO. On the other hand, in the period from April to August 2023, only SMDR and MAPI were included as candidates. Interestingly, SMDR was consistently selected in both periods. The proportion of the optimal portfolio in November 2022 - March 2023 was 11.62% for SMDR, while in April - August 2023, the proportion of SMDR increased to 25%. The optimal portfolio consisting of two stocks in April - August 2023 is estimated to generate a return of -0,28% per month, with an investment risk of 2.25%.

Learning about computer components in schools often relies on textbooks or practical exercises, which can sometimes result in student boredom. Therefore, learning requires innovation to optimize the student learning experience and provide a fresh perspective on the material. One such innovative approach is the use of augmented reality (AR) technology. AR is a breakthrough and innovation in the fields of multimedia and image processing that is rapidly evolving. This technology can transform a previously flat or two-dimensional object into something that appears real and integrated with the surrounding environment. Consequently, it can be applied in education to provide an engaging and enjoyable visual experience. This research aims to develop an educational application for introducing computer components using augmented reality technology, which is expected to assist teachers in delivering the material effectively to students. The research employs a Research and Development methodology, with application testing conducted using Alpha testing. The result of this study is an educational media application for learning about computer components using augmented reality technology, which is engaging and adds a new dimension to the teaching and learning process.

Nara Kitchen is a daily catering service provider with a varied menu every day. Since the Covid-19 pandemic, catering demand has increased to 130 portions per delivery. This surge in demand necessitates improvements to the layout of production facilities, as higher production volume results in increased activity between workstations. Consequently, Nara Kitchen aims to enhance the layout of its facilities to optimize production efficiency. Facility layout improvements are implemented using the Blocplan method and are simulated through a discrete systems approach. The Blocplan method designs the layout based on the proximity between departments, aiming to minimize overall travel distance. The results of the layout improvements are then simulated using Flexsim software before being implemented. The simulation outcomes demonstrate reduced weekly travel distances. The movement distance for workers traveling from the kitchen workstation to the compounding workstation has decreased by 5.33m, while workers moving from the kitchen workstation to the packing workstation experience a reduction in movement distance of 142.38m
