The correctional facility SAE L’SIMA in Malang is confronted with two major challenges: the environmental impact of accumulated cow manure and the need to provide meaningful vocational training for inmates to support rehabilitation and reintegration. This community service program was designed to address both issues simultaneously through the introduction and application of biogas technology. The primary objective was to manage livestock waste as an alternative renewable energy source while equipping inmates with practical technical skills applicable beyond the correctional setting. The implementation method employed a participatory approach that involved several stages, including program socialization, site survey, biogas unit design, assembly of a small-scale digester, and subsequent monitoring and evaluation.The results demonstrated that the biogas unit was successfully constructed and operational; however, gas production levels remained below optimal standards. Key challenges identified included unstable temperature conditions, which negatively affected the fermentation process, and technical problems such as leakage in the piping system. These obstacles limited the overall effectiveness of gas generation. Despite these limitations, the project provided significant outcomes. First, it created a working model of sustainable energy generation within the correctional environment. Second, it delivered valuable vocational training for inmates, offering them both theoretical knowledge and hands-on experience in renewable energy technology. Furthermore, the program encouraged inmate participation, fostering teamwork, responsibility, and problem-solving skills that are essential for personal development.In conclusion, although technical barriers remain, this initiative succeeded in establishing the foundation for sustainable waste management and renewable energy application within a correctional facility. More importantly, it highlights the potential of biogas technology not only as an environmental solution but also as a rehabilitative vocational training tool. Continued monitoring, process optimization, and technical refinements are essential for achieving long-term success and scalability of this model in similar institutional contexts.

SIBENSAM is a mobile application owned by the Indonesian Navy to collect data on the personnel of the Indonesian Navy's kaporlap anywhere and anytime with the aim of reducing the time of the briefing process with the hope that the data produced has high accuracy. However, in the Indonesian Navy Academy environment, Cadets have not adopted the tool so that the method of collecting kaporlap data still uses the conventional method, namely filling out a form printed on paper. So that errors are still found in the data produced and the time required is very long to produce Kaporlap data as a basis for carrying out the briefing of the kaporlap of the Indonesian Navy Academy Cadets. The writing of this research proposal has the intention of creating a database of the AAL Taruna kaporlap to assist the duties of the Staff of the 4th Regiment of the Cadet Corps, thus this research proposal aims to be input for the Indonesian Navy Academy institution to create an application similar to SISBENSAM for the scope of the Indonesian Navy Academy Cadets. The current condition of the kaporlap data is inaccurate, the processing of kaporlap data takes a long time, and the cadets do not have time to carry out the kaporlap data update. The expected condition is that the kaporlap data produced is accurate, the processing of kaporlap data is concise, and the updating of kaporlap data is flexible as an indicator of the success of this research proposal. To realize this, a strategy was prepared including systematic design of the initial concept of the initial product, development of the initial product design, joint development with the TNI AL Disinfolahta. The conclusion of this study is that innovation is needed in the implementation of briefing activities in the scope of the TNI AL Academy Cadets which facilitates the work of the Staff of the 4 Regiments of the Cadet Corps and at the same time becomes a learning medium for the Cadets, especially for the Supply Corps Cadets.

The development targets in the Health sector in the 2020–2024 National Medium-Term Development Plan (RPJMN) place one of the main targets for maternal and child health is to reduce the incidence of children under five years old (toddlers) stunting (low height / short) by 30.8% (2018) to 19% in 2024. Optimal Health Status must be prepared since a woman before marriage. Then continued when the woman is pregnant, and while breastfeeding. Childhood is the foundation for growth and development in the next stage, if there are nutritional problems then the consequences that arise are permanent. The risk of stunting by 7x can occur in women 15-49 years who experience anemia and when they become pregnant will be at risk of giving birth to stunted babies. In women of childbearing age aged 15-49 years is the foundation for growth and development in the next stage, if during this period women experience nutritional problems then the consequences that arise can be permanent or irreversible. Its essence is a critical period when a system is plastic and sensitive to its environment, followed by a permanent loss of plasticity and functional capacity (Ummi Kalsum et al., 2021). Before education was provided, most adolescents showed a low level of understanding, namely 31 respondents (56.7%), and awareness of the importance of monitoring nutritional status during adolescence was also minimal. However, after interactive counseling with an easy-to-understand approach, there was a significant increase in knowledge, with 41 respondents (68.3%) showing an increase in understanding, reflected in a change in the knowledge category to a better level. This activity emphasizes the importance of promotive and preventive interventions in areas at high risk of nutritional problems. The implementation of direct and participatory education involving cadres and health workers has proven effective in increasing awareness and forming healthy lifestyle behaviors in adolescents. Therefore, similar education programs need to be implemented continuously to reduce anemia rates to prevent stunting and prevent stunting from adolescence.

Plastic waste is currently still a serious problem for society due to the lack of sensitivity to environmental problems and the impact of careless disposal of plastic waste in many places. The injection molding process on industry scale often faces obstacles such as machines that have not worked efficiently, injection capacity that is unable to fill the mold completely, and the emergence of product defects due to plastic flow that begins to freeze before the entire cavity is completely filled. This study aims to design and simulate a prototype injection molding machine with a capacity of 4 tensile test specimens (total volume 28.5 cm³) in order to overcome these problems and to adjust the practicum needs of mechanical engineering students. The design process is carried out with SolidWorks software for 3D design, as well as flow simulation using SolidWorks Plastics and Flow Simulation with recycled Polypropylene (PP) material at melting temperature ± 230 ° C and injection pressure ± 5.3 MPa. The design results in a machine with dimensions of 1273 × 400 × 826 mm equipped with main components in the form of a frame, electric motor and gearbox, hopper, body safety, wheels, piston cylinder, control panel, heater, screw with barrel, and mold. SolidWorks Plastics simulation shows that the plastic flow fills the mold evenly with a filling time of 10.93 seconds, cycle time of 83.94 seconds, and maximum pressure of 5.38 MPa in the gate area, while Flow Simulation simulation shows a spiral flow pattern from the hopper to the end of the mold without backflow, with a mass flow rate of 0.0227 kg/sec and an average pressure of 97.765 Pa. These results prove that the design and simulation can improve process efficiency and mold quality

This paper explores the application of quantum-inspired optimization algorithms in the training of large-scale Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) within distributed cloud-edge environments. GNNs have gained significant attention due to their ability to model complex relationships in graph-structured data, yet their training presents challenges such as high computational demand, inefficient resource allocation, and slow convergence, especially for large datasets. Traditional meta-heuristic algorithms, while useful, often face scalability and performance issues when applied to such large-scale tasks. To address these challenges, we propose a quantum-inspired meta-heuristic algorithm that leverages quantum principles, such as superposition and entanglement, to enhance optimization processes. The algorithm was integrated into a hybrid cloud-edge system, where computational tasks are dynamically distributed between edge nodes and the cloud, optimizing resource utilization and reducing latency. Our experimental results demonstrate significant improvements in training speed, resource efficiency, and convergence rate when compared to traditional optimization methods such as Genetic Algorithms and Simulated Annealing. The quantum-inspired algorithm not only accelerates the training process but also reduces memory usage, making it well-suited for large-scale GNN applications. Furthermore, the system's scalability was enhanced by the hybrid cloud-edge architecture, which balances computational load and enables real-time data processing. The findings suggest that quantum-inspired optimization algorithms can significantly improve the training of GNNs in distributed systems, opening new avenues for real-time applications in areas such as social network analysis, anomaly detection, and recommendation systems. Future work will focus on refining these algorithms to handle even larger datasets and more complex GNN architectures, with potential integration into edge devices for enhanced real-time decision-making.

This study explores the relationship between religiosity and Organizational Citizenship Behavior (OCB) within contemporary organizations by adopting a positive psychology perspective. OCB is defined as discretionary behaviors by employees that go beyond their formal job duties and contribute positively to the overall functioning and success of the organization. Examples include helping colleagues, being punctual, and demonstrating initiative, which foster a cooperative and productive work environment. Religiosity, on the other hand, is understood as a belief system that shapes an individual’s values, attitudes, and behaviors, both intrinsically—stemming from internal spiritual commitment—and extrinsically—motivated by external social or cultural influences. Through a systematic review of ten national and international academic journals, this study identifies several common dimensions of OCB, such as altruism (helping others selflessly), civic virtue (active and responsible participation in organizational affairs), and conscientiousness (going beyond minimal job requirements). The findings reveal a consistent positive correlation between religiosity and OCB, especially in sectors like education, Islamic banking, and healthcare, where religious principles strongly influence organizational culture. The integration of religious values into organizational practices encourages employees to exhibit behaviors that promote harmony, ethical conduct, and a sense of community within the workplace. This is particularly evident in employees who possess high levels of intrinsic religiosity, as their internalized beliefs motivate them to engage in prosocial actions that benefit the organization. The study recommends that human resource management strategies incorporate religious or spiritual values to cultivate a positive organizational culture. Such integration can be achieved through training programs, leadership development, and reward systems that emphasize ethical behavior and social responsibility, ultimately leading to improved employee satisfaction, loyalty, and overall organizational performance.

Human resources play a fundamental role as a key component in supporting the success of an organization or agency, including village governments, as they serve as the link between formulated visions, missions, and targets and their actual implementation in the field. This study specifically focuses on examining the influence of transformational leadership, communication, and the work environment on the performance of village officials, with job satisfaction as a key mediating variable. The research method employed a quantitative approach with purposive sampling, involving 79 village officials deemed representative of the population. The findings indicate that transformational leadership partially has a significant impact on increasing the motivation, loyalty, and work ethic of village officials, as visionary leaders are able to direct, inspire, and encourage employees to work more optimally. Communication has also been shown to play a significant role, as open, two-way, and transparent communication minimizes misunderstandings and creates harmonious working relationships among employees and between superiors and subordinates. A conducive work environment, both physically, psychologically, and socially, contributes to a sense of security, comfort, and higher work morale. Furthermore, this study confirms that job satisfaction is a crucial mediating factor in linking transformational leadership, communication, and the work environment with the performance of village officials. This is because when employees are satisfied with their jobs, their commitment, productivity, and dedication to their tasks increase significantly. Therefore, this study emphasizes the need for an integrated strategy in human resource management at the village level, with an emphasis on an inspirational leadership style, an effective communication system, the creation of a healthy work environment, and increasing job satisfaction as a sustainable effort.
