The increasing complexity of urban transportation systems demands intelligent and measurable navigation methods. Medan City, the capital of North Sumatra Province, has a dense road network with multiple route options that often confuse road users. Dijkstra's Algorithm, developed by Edsger Wybe Dijkstra in 1959, is a greedy-based computational approach proven effective for solving the shortest path problem on non-negative weighted graphs. This study applies Dijkstra's Algorithm to determine the shortest route from Medan Railway Station to Universitas Negeri Medan (UNIMED). The road network was modeled as an undirected weighted graph with 15 nodes and 16 edges, where edge weights represent actual road distances measured via Google Maps. The graph has a density of 0.152, confirming its sparse graph characteristic. Three alternative routes were identified and analyzed. The algorithm was implemented in Python 3 using the heapq module as a priority queue. Results show that the optimal route is A → B → C → E → F → M → N → O via Jl. M.T. Haryono, Jl. Aipda KS Tubun, Jl. Madong Lubis, and Jl. Prof. H.M. Yamin, with a total distance of 6.64 km. This achieves 99.1% accuracy compared to Google Maps, with a deviation of only 0.06 km. The optimal route is 6.25% more efficient than Alternative Route 1 (7.30 km) and 11.9% more efficient than Alternative Route 2 (7.54 km). The algorithm executes in under 1 millisecond with time complexity O((V+E) log V). These findings confirm Dijkstra's Algorithm as highly effective for medium-scale urban road network optimization.

Bariatric surgery is effective in treating obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM); however, pregnancy occurring within 12–24 months after surgery carries significant risks. This report presents a complex pregnancy case in a patient with a history of sleeve gastrectomy, post-hemithyroidectomy hypothyroidism, and T2DM. A 29-year-old primigravida conceived 2 months after undergoing sleeve gastrectomy, which successfully induced T2DM remission, with HbA1c decreasing from 11% to 5.5%. Although glycemic control and euthyroid status were maintained throughout pregnancy, the patient developed severe preeclampsia at 35–36 weeks of gestation, complicated by intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) and oligohydramnios. An emergency cesarean section delivered a male infant weighing 2000 grams with Apgar scores of 8 and 9 at the first and fifth minutes, respectively. The neonate required 14 days of NICU care due to respiratory distress syndrome, respiratory failure, and hyperbilirubinemia. Maternal gestational weight gain was suboptimal at only 4 kg, below the recommended range for pregnant women with obesity. This case highlights the importance of adhering to the recommended surgery-to-conception interval following bariatric surgery. Early pregnancy after surgery, combined with multiple metabolic comorbidities, may contribute to adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes. Multidisciplinary management, comprehensive nutritional monitoring, and optimization of comorbidities before conception are essential to improve pregnancy outcomes in this population.

Dijkstra's algorithm is one of the algorithms in graph theory that is used to solve the problem of the shortest path of a graph at each vertex that has a non-negative value. This algorithm was discovered by Edsger Wybe Dijkstra, a scientist from the Netherlands. The search for the shortest route for product delivery can be calculated through the application of the Dijkstra algorithm in the problem being faced. The problem of decision making for selecting the shortest route is still manual, so it experiences several obstacles, including the absence of a systematic and computerized system to assist the decision-making process in determining the route for shipping goods, the determination of shipping routes still depends on manual estimates so that the time taken between deliveries becomes inconsistent, the operational costs of shipping are relatively high because there is no optimal route determination system. Facing these problems, a system is needed that can minimize delays and increase effectiveness in shipping goods, namely determining the shortest route using the Dijkstra algorithm. This system works by finding various alternative routes for shipping goods at PT AMSA to address various structured and unstructured problems using data and models. To process this data and models, a method called the Dijkstra algorithm is required. Based on the description above, researchers will create a method for determining the shortest route for shipping goods at PT AMSA using the Dijkstra algorithm to facilitate the company's process of determining the shortest route.

The rapid proliferation of digital technologies has fundamentally transformed the competitive landscape of the food catering industry, compelling businesses to adopt sophisticated digital marketing strategies to sustain and grow their customer base. This study investigates the relationship between digital marketing strategies and customer loyalty in food catering businesses in Indonesia, with a focus on identifying which digital marketing dimensions most effectively drive loyalty outcomes in the digital era. Employing a quantitative research design with a survey-based approach, data were collected from 215 active customers of food catering services in the Bandung metropolitan area. The digital marketing dimensions examined include social media marketing, content marketing, search engine optimization (SEO), email marketing, and online reputation management.

The activity was implemented through interactive seminars and participatory discussions focusing on the strategic role of youth in nation-building and entrepreneurship development strategies. The results indicate a significant improvement in participants’ awareness, motivation, and understanding of entrepreneurship as a driver of economic and social transformation. More importantly, the program successfully strengthened the identity and role of Simarmata youth as a community-based development force, fostering collaboration, innovation, and sustainable economic initiatives. This study highlights that community-based participatory programs are effective in empowering local youth communities, particularly in enhancing entrepreneurial capacity and strengthening their contribution to sustainable national development.

The increasing role of information technology in higher education requires IT governance practices that are measurable, structured, and aligned with digital transformation objectives. Many higher education institutions have implemented various information systems to support academic, administrative, and managerial services; however, the existence of technology does not automatically ensure that IT processes are governed effectively. This study aims to evaluate the Capability level of IT governance using the COBIT 2019 framework in the context of a state university in Indonesia. A descriptive case study approach was applied through structured interviews, document analysis, and observation of IT governance practices. The evaluation focused on eleven Governance and Management Objectives across the EDM, APO, BAI, DSS, and MEA domains. The results show that most objectives are at Capability Level 1 (Performed), while only BAI01, BAI03, and DSS02 have reached Capability Level 2 (Managed). No evaluated objective has reached Level 3 (Established). The gap analysis indicates that the highest gaps are found in EDM03, APO12, and APO13, which relate to risk optimization, risk management, and security governance. These findings indicate that IT governance practices have been implemented but still require stronger formal policies, standardized procedures, documented controls, and integrated monitoring mechanisms. The study provides practical recommendations for improving IT governance through risk appetite definition, risk register development, information security policy, enterprise architecture blueprint, service level agreement implementation, and performance monitoring to support sustainable digital transformation in higher education.

This study aims to analyze the contribution and effectiveness of Local Tax and Local Retribution revenues to the Regional Original Revenue (PAD) of Bantul Regency during the 2021–2024 period. This research employs a quantitative descriptive approach using secondary data obtained from the Budget Realization Report (LRA) of Bantul Regency. The data analysis techniques used include contribution ratio analysis and effectiveness analysis by comparing realization with predetermined targets. The results show that the contribution of Local Taxes to the PAD of Bantul Regency during the 2021–2024 period is classified as good, with an average of 45.12%. Meanwhile, the contribution of Local Retribution to PAD is categorized as very low, with an average of 6.37%. In terms of effectiveness, Local Tax revenue is considered very effective with an average effectiveness rate of 109.18%, while Local Retribution revenue is categorized as quite effective with an average effectiveness of 92.42%. Based on these results, it can be concluded that Local Taxes are the most dominant and reliable source of PAD in Bantul Regency, while Local Retribution, although quite effective in achieving its targets, still requires optimization. Therefore, efforts are needed to optimize the collection of local retributions through the expansion of retribution objects, the review of more realistic targets, and the improvement of regional revenue management quality.

This study aims to analyze the influence of Regional Original Revenue (PAD), General Allocation Fund (DAU), and Special Allocation Fund (DAK) on Capital Expenditure, with Budget Surplus (SiLPA) as a moderating variable in district and city governments across Banten Province for the 2020–2024 period. The background of this research is driven by the high regional dependence on central government transfer funds and the suboptimal allocation of capital expenditure as a key indicator of regional development. This study employs a quantitative approach using secondary data from Local Government Budget Realization Reports (LRA), analyzed through Multiple Linear Regression and Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA) using statistical software. The results demonstrate that PAD has a significant positive effect on capital expenditure, whereas DAU and DAK do not show any significant influence. Furthermore, the interaction test reveals that SiLPA is unable to moderate the relationship between PAD, DAU, or DAK and capital expenditure. These findings indicate that regional fiscal independence, through the optimization of PAD, serves as the primary determinant for capital investment. The implications of this study suggest that local governments should further optimize local revenue potential to reduce dependency on transfer funds and improve budget management efficiency to support sustainable regional development.

This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of corporate zakat management in reducing economic inequality from the perspective of muamalah. The research employs a library research method with a qualitative-descriptive approach by examining various literature sources, empirical data, and regulations related to corporate zakat in Indonesia. The findings reveal that corporate zakat management achieves optimal effectiveness when zakat funds are distributed through a productive zakat scheme. This scheme is implemented through six main stages: preliminary surveys of beneficiaries, regular assistance, provision of business capital, business partner guidance, motivational training, and periodic evaluations of beneficiaries’ business development. However, practical implementation still faces several challenges. The allocation of funds for business capital among economically disadvantaged communities has only reached approximately 0.4%, while the majority of zakat funds, around 97.1%, are still utilized for consumptive assistance. This condition indicates that the economic empowerment function of zakat has not yet been fully optimized. Therefore, integrative solutions are required, including institutional strengthening through the establishment of Islamic microfinance units such as Baitul Maal wat Tamwil (BMT) internally, as well as stronger government regulations through tax deductible incentive policies externally to support the sustainable optimization of corporate zakat distribution.

In the digital era, e-commerce has developed not only as a platform for buying and selling activities but also as a strategic medium for marketing and business development. University students theoretically possess strong potential to become edupreneurs because they are closely connected to technology and supported by higher education environments. Nevertheless, the reality at Al-Amien Prenduan University indicates that students tend to act more as consumers in e-commerce rather than as entrepreneurs. This condition creates a gap between theoretical expectations and practical implementation, raising questions regarding the effectiveness of e-commerce in encouraging students’ entrepreneurial spirit. This study examines strategies for strengthening Edupreneurship graduates through the optimization of e-commerce. The research specifically explores ways to maximize e-commerce in supporting the development of Edupreneurship graduate profiles and improving graduates’ competitiveness in entrepreneurship and employment sectors. A qualitative approach with a case study method was employed at Al-Amien Prenduan University. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation involving female students of the Islamic Education Edupreneurship program who actively engage in entrepreneurial activities through e-commerce platforms. The findings reveal that optimizing e-commerce can be achieved through identifying students’ digital competencies and needs, as well as utilizing flexible technologies that support broader market access and global transactions. In addition, strategies such as enhancing digital marketing creativity, strengthening market research capabilities, and understanding consumer behavior significantly contribute to entrepreneurial development. The study concludes that e-commerce effectively fosters entrepreneurial attitudes, adaptability, and competitiveness among students in facing the challenges of the digital economy.

The digital transformation driven by the acceleration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has fundamentally transformed leadership paradigms and the structure of the modern workplace. This study aims to provide an in-depth analysis of the various strategic opportunities and systemic risks arising from the integration of AI into contemporary organizational leadership practices, where technology is no longer merely a tool but a collaborative partner in managerial processes. Using a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method on 30 reputable scientific journals with publications spanning up to 2026, this article analyzes the transition of the leader’s role from a conventional hierarchical model toward the concept of Augmented Leadership. Data analysis results indicate that AI implementation offers significant opportunities through data-driven decision-making systems with high precision, intelligent resource allocation optimization, and enhanced leadership intervention effectiveness, which has been documented to reach up to 35%. However, this transformation also brings a series of complex multidimensional risks, including algorithmic biases that could trigger inequality cascades, ethical dilemmas related to operational transparency (black box), and the potential erosion of the meaning of work for employees. The discussion in this article emphasizes that the success of this transformation depends not only on technical expertise, but also on redefining leadership competencies to prioritize emotional intelligence and ethical governance frameworks such as the CARE Framework (Control, Awareness, Responsibility, and Evaluation).
