BUM Desa Podho Joyo Sukorejo has an integrated information system in 1 website application, starting from HR, operations, and finance. However, the staffing information system is still less effective and efficient. The purpose of this research is to comprehensively describe the design of the staffing information system implemented at BUM Desa Podho Joyo Sukorejo. The solution that can be applied to overcome this problem is to develop a website-based staffing information system. The process of designing this system is done through direct observation method to BUM Desa Podho Joyo Sukorejo to collect accurate staffing data. The author chose to apply the waterfall method, a model in the System Life Development Cycle (SDLC) that involves system analysis, design, coding, and testing in sequence. The programming language used in this system is PHP, using Bootstrap as a web design library and MySQL as a database server. After performing a series of steps, including observation, design, and system development, it can be concluded that this system can assist employee staff in carrying out real-time recording of personal data, attendance, work history, and performance evaluation that can be accessed by related parties.

Posyandu cadres have a crucial role in preventing stunting, and this study was conducted to investigate their involvement at the Turen Community Health Center. The findings revealed that the posyandu cadres at the center were actively collaborating with the Family Assistance Team (TPK) formed by the BKKBN, as well as various other stakeholders, to collect data and screen for stunting prevention from preconception until toddlers reach 2 years old. However, a major obstacle in this program is the lack of reward system arrangements for the cadres. Despite their significant contribution to the success of the stunting prevention program, some cadres receive unequal workload and rewards. These findings can be utilized to further optimize cadre performance, and could serve as a valuable input for future research regarding the cadre reward system.

This study aims to analyze the effect of Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) fuel on the performance (torque and power) and exhaust emissions of a 125 cc Supra X 125 motorcycle (2010 model). An experimental method was applied by testing the engine using two types of fuel, namely gasoline and LPG. The independent variable in this study is the type of fuel, while the dependent variables include torque, power, and exhaust emissions consisting of carbon monoxide (CO), hydrocarbons (HC), and carbon dioxide (CO₂). The tests were conducted at various engine speeds (RPM) using a dynamometer, while emission measurements were analyzed using a gas analyzer.The results show that LPG fuel produces slightly lower torque and power compared to gasoline, especially at low to medium engine speeds. This is attributed to differences in calorific value and air–fuel mixing characteristics. However, at higher engine speeds, LPG shows more stable performance. In terms of emissions, LPG significantly reduces CO and HC emissions, while CO₂ emissions slightly increase, indicating more complete combustion.It can be concluded that LPG has potential as a cleaner alternative fuel, despite a slight reduction in engine performance.
