The increasing integration and digitization of smart grid systems have exposed them to a variety of security threats, necessitating robust security measures to ensure their reliability and efficiency. This paper proposes a novel Digital Twin-Based Cyber-Physical Security Framework, incorporating AI-driven predictive maintenance and zero-trust architecture to address the evolving challenges of securing smart grids. By leveraging digital twin technology, this framework creates a real-time virtual representation of physical systems, enabling continuous monitoring and simulation for enhanced security and operational performance. Zero-trust security principles are integrated to ensure that no entity, whether inside or outside the network, is trusted by default, thus significantly reducing the risk of cyber-attacks. Additionally, AI-driven predictive maintenance enhances the framework’s reliability by proactively identifying potential failures before they occur, reducing downtime and improving system resilience. Through the development and simulation of this framework, including attack and failure scenarios, the paper demonstrates that the proposed system outperforms traditional methods in terms of anomaly detection, system downtime, and response times. The integration of predictive maintenance allows for early identification of component failures, thus enhancing the overall resilience of the grid. The zero-trust architecture further strengthens the cybersecurity posture, preventing unauthorized access and attacks. The study also identifies challenges, such as data synchronization and scalability, which must be addressed for broader implementation in large-scale smart grid systems. The findings suggest that the proposed framework could play a critical role in the future evolution of smart grid security, offering valuable insights for researchers and practitioners.  

This research analyzes the speech acts used by the student community at Universitas Negeri Medan in both academic and social interactions. Speech acts are the smallest components in communication that determine the meaning or intention of an utterance as conveyed by the speaker in accordance with a specific context or condition. The communication context consists of social contexts, which refer to the relationship between the speaker and the interlocutor. The purpose of this study is to identify the forms, principles, implicatures, deixis, and how various communication contexts influence the choice of speech acts and linguistic politeness. The methodology employed in this study combines methodological and theoretical approaches. The methodological approach is descriptive qualitative, while the theoretical approach applies pragmatic perspectives supported by literature review. The research methods include observation, interviews, audio recordings, transcription, and literature study by analyzing relevant sources. The findings reveal that in social interactions, students more frequently employ expressive and commissive speech acts to build and express emotions. Factors influencing this include situational context, the impact of media and technology, relationships with interlocutors, and cultural background. The study concludes that understanding speech acts is crucial for improving communication effectiveness among students in both academic and social settings. The implications of this research can be applied to the development of better communication strategies in educational environments and to enhance students’ awareness of polite and contextually appropriate language use.

The research aims to clarify and expand understanding of the concept of Islam as rahmatan lil alamin and to explore its application in the modern era. This research aims to explore the core values ​​of Islamic teachings that support this concept, including the principles of humanity, tolerance and solidarity. The methods used include literature studies, in-depth interviews with religious and community leaders, as well as case study analysis from various Islamic communities. The research results show that the application of Rahmatan Lil Alamin's values ​​can overcome various social challenges, such as intolerance and discrimination, as well as encourage interfaith dialogue. It is hoped that this research can provide insight and practical recommendations to strengthen the role of Islam in creating a more peaceful and just world

This study analyzes the role of millennials and Gen Z in driving the growth of halal e-commerce in Indonesia. The global halal industry is projected to reach US$3.36 trillion by 2028, underscoring the importance of strengthening halal e-commerce in Indonesia, which has the largest Muslim population in the world (Kawsar, 2025). Millennials and Gen Z are the dominant users of the internet and digital marketplaces, thus playing a strategic role in expanding the digital halal economic ecosystem. This study uses a qualitative approach with literature studies and in-depth interviews with consumers and halal digital business actors. The analysis focuses on digital behavior, halal product preferences, and awareness of sharia economic principles. The results show that millennials and Gen Z contribute through three main roles. First, as smart consumers who show high preference and loyalty to certified halal products. Second, as creative business actors who create sharia startups and marketplaces with innovative digital marketing strategies. Third, as agents of change who promote digital halal literacy and strengthen public awareness of the importance of halal products and services. In conclusion, the role of these two generations is not only in consumption, but also in creating a sustainable digital halal business ecosystem, strengthening Indonesia's competitiveness in the global halal industry, and supporting national sharia economic development.

In the digital era, the erosion of moral values among young people has become a pressing challenge for Islamic Religious Education (PAI). Folktales, as part of Indonesia’s cultural heritage, offer universal moral lessons that resonate with Islamic principles. This study investigates the potential of folktales as instructional media for instilling Islamic values while addressing the demands of digital-based learning. A qualitative descriptive method was applied, involving textual analysis of folktales, classroom observations, and interviews with teachers and students. The selected stories Malin Kundang, Bawang Merah Bawang Putih, Timun Mas, and Lake Toba were examined to identify moral values consistent with Qur’anic and prophetic teachings. Data were analyzed using reduction, presentation, and conclusion drawing, supported by triangulation to enhance validity. The results reveal that folktales embody key Islamic values such as filial piety, honesty, patience, courage, and loyalty to promises. Their integration into PAI classes not only increased student attention and emotional engagement but also encouraged deeper moral reflection. Moreover, digital adaptations through animations, videos, and digital storytelling expanded their relevance to contemporary learners, although challenges remain in teachers’ digital literacy and the need for contextual reinterpretation. This study concludes that folktales are more than cultural narratives; they are strategic tools for moral education. By leveraging digital innovation, folktales can reinforce character formation, sustain the relevance of PAI, and prepare Muslim students to be adaptive and value-driven in navigating modern society.

Multiculturalism is a view that recognizes and respects cultural diversity in social life, politics, and community values. This concept emphasizes the importance of recognizing differences in cultural identity as the basis for creating a harmonious, peaceful, and inclusive society. Historically, the idea of ​​multiculturalism emerged as a response to the melting pot paradigm in countries with high immigration rates, which tend to assimilate minority cultures into the dominant culture. Conversely, multiculturalism seeks to maintain the cultural identity of each group while building social cohesion within the framework of shared life. This study uses a qualitative descriptive method with a literature study approach to examine the definition, history, and basic ideas of multiculturalism from various literature sources. The results of the study show that multiculturalism has a strong foundation in the principles of respect, tolerance, equal rights, and social justice in a pluralistic society. A deep understanding of this concept is very important in the context of a complex and diverse modern society, because it is able to strengthen mutual respect, build social solidarity, and maintain national unity amidst cultural, religious, and ethnic differences. Thus, multiculturalism is not only a social concept but also a cultural strategy for realizing a just and harmonious life together.

This study focuses on analyzing the efficiency of water usage during ablution in mosques, aiming to identify the factors causing inefficiency and propose solutions aligned with sustainability and Islamic values. Ablution is essential for Muslim prayer, yet modern mosques often neglect water efficiency, leading to waste and high operational costs. A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining observations, water discharge measurements, and surveys from 35 congregants at an urban mosque. The results showed an average ablution water consumption of 2.47 liters per person, with significant variation, primarily due to faucet usage behaviors. The survey also revealed that 45.71% of participants viewed water use as inefficient, with mixed responses regarding the implementation of automatic faucets. These findings underscore that water conservation cannot be achieved solely through technical solutions like sensor faucets or water recycling systems. Instead, it requires integrating Islamic values and education to encourage behavioral change among mosque-goers. By promoting awareness and responsible water use, mosques can become role models in environmental conservation. This study highlights the importance of combining technical engineering solutions with spiritual values, contributing to a more sustainable and efficient use of resources in mosque facilities while adhering to Islamic principles.

Clean and Healthy Living Behavior (CHLB) is an essential practice to improve students’ health knowledge, attitudes, and daily habits. This community service program (Kuliah Kerja Nyata/KKN) was carried out at Senior High School 8 Dumai with the aim of educating students on CHLB principles. The activity involved 47 students aged 15–17 years, using interactive methods such as presentations, educational media, discussions, and practical demonstrations. The results indicated a significant increase in students’ understanding of personal hygiene, proper handwashing with soap, maintaining a clean school environment, and adopting healthier lifestyle practices. Active participation during discussions and practice sessions showed strong engagement and relevance of CHLB education to students’ daily lives. This program demonstrated that CHLB education through KKN is effective in promoting awareness and instilling sustainable healthy behavior among high school students.

This research aims to analyze the governance forms implemented by the village government in the breakfast culinary tourism program to empower Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in Punden Rejo Village, Tanjung Morawa District, Deli Serdang Regency. It explores the application of good governance principles in local economic development based on culinary tourism. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, the study collected data through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation from village officials, MSME actors, and tourists. The study is guided by Sedarmayanti's principles of good governance, particularly participation and accountability, linked to MSME empowerment. The results reveal that the breakfast culinary tourism management has not been optimal. Accountability is weak, as the village government has not registered or mentored MSMEs in the tourism sector to obtain a Business Identification Number (NIB) from the local Cooperative and MSME Office. Additionally, there is a lack of reporting on tax deductions and minimal support for business capital and training, causing many MSMEs to cease operations. From a participatory perspective, the village government has not actively involved community institutions like Pokdarwis, PKK, and Karang Taruna in planning and implementing activities, resulting in weak social support for MSMEs. Overall, the management of breakfast culinary tourism in Punden Rejo Village has not optimally empowered MSMEs due to weak implementation of accountability and participation principles. The success of sustainable tourism depends on cooperation between the village government, MSMEs, and local institutions to build a participatory and accountable tourism management system.

Criminal law based on genetic determinism was once rejected in modern criminal law systems because it was deemed contrary to the principle of individual responsibility. However, the rise of epigenetics and neurocriminology in contemporary legal practice indicates a reconstitution of the biological basis for attribution of criminal culpability. This study aims to analyze the extent to which developments in epigenetics reopen opportunities for the operation of biological approaches in criminal law, while also critiquing the conceptual dangers they pose to the principles of justice and moral responsibility. The research method uses a normative legal approach with a conceptual approach. The results show that epigenetics works as a tool for scientific validation of the formation of risk categories in criminal law, while simultaneously weakening the perpetrator's position as a moral subject. The criminal law structure that technocratically accepts biological arguments creates a new form of legal exclusion through medical classifications that are not open to ethical evaluation. In this situation, the law operates as an instrument of biological management of bodies deemed deviant. The position of neurocriminology in this case is no longer merely a tool, but rather the center of the configuration of biolegal power that defines responsibility based on predisposition, not will. Therefore, a new normative framework is needed that can uphold the principle of individual responsibility while rejecting the ethical reduction of biological diagnoses in the criminal law system.

This study originates from the difficulties student pilots encounter when deciding to perform a go-around during unstable strong wind (gusty wind) conditions, especially on the runway at Banyuwangi Airport. The go-around procedure is a vital element in maintaining flight safety, but for inexperienced students, the decision is often challenging and influenced by multiple factors. The purpose of this research is to explore and analyze the aspects that affect student pilots’ considerations when faced with gusty wind situations. Using a descriptive qualitative method, data were gathered through semi-structured interviews with both student pilots and flight instructors. The findings reveal that several elements play key roles in shaping decision-making, including the level of flight experience, the application of aeronautical decision-making (ADM) principles, situational awareness in rapidly changing conditions, and the psychological pressures experienced during critical phases of flight. These insights emphasize the importance of strengthening pilot training programs, particularly in weather-related decision-making scenarios. By integrating structured ADM training and enhancing awareness of environmental factors, student pilots can be better prepared to respond to challenging conditions. The outcomes of this research are expected to support improvements in aviation education, reduce potential risks, and foster a stronger safety culture among future pilots.

The Mosque Youth Organization (REMAS) plays an important and strategic role as an agent of social and religious change among the younger generation. This study aims to improve the governance of the Mosque Youth Organization in Blitar City to be more professional and Islamic through the synergy of public administration and Islamic values. The main problems faced include a lack of coordination with the mosque administrators, a lack of effective leadership, and low community participation, which are influenced by internal factors such as the busyness of members and external factors such as limited funds and facilities. The method used is a participatory approach through needs analysis with 20 REMAS and mosque administrators, followed by training on professional Islamic governance, management skills, and evaluation assistance for its implementation. The training was held at the Al Mugi Barokah Mosque in Blitar City in September 2025, in collaboration with the Indonesian Mosque Youth Communication Agency (BKPRMI) as a stakeholder. The results of the community service showed significant improvements, namely the formation of a clear organizational structure, community-based work programs such as skills training and innovative social activities, and effective coordination with mosque administrators through regular forums to increase community participation. This approach integrates good governance principles such as transparency, accountability, and documentation using Trello or Google Sheets with Islamic values such as deliberation, trustworthiness, benevolence, and the example set by the Prophet Muhammad SAW. These activities contribute to sustainable social transformation among mosque youth, strengthening their role as agents of socio-religious change, although challenges such as limited resources, internal conflicts, and slow technological adaptation still need to be addressed through regular monitoring and further technological integration.

The increasing number of students in major cities such as Medan has created an urgent need for temporary housing that is adequate, comfortable, and sustainable. In response, the Indonesian government, through the Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing (PUPR), launched the "One Thousand Towers Program," which includes the development of rental apartment buildings (Rusunawa) for students. However, housing provision must go beyond quantity—it must also consider environmental aspects and the quality of life for its occupants. Therefore, a green architecture approach serves as the foundation for the design of environmentally friendly student housing. This project aims to create a vertical residential facility that not only fulfills the basic function of shelter but also supports learning activities, social interaction, energy efficiency, and environmental sustainability. The design applies key principles of green architecture such as natural lighting, cross ventilation, the use of eco-friendly materials, and the integration of green open spaces. In addition to double-room residential units, the building is equipped with supporting facilities such as study areas, a library, cafeteria, and rooftop garden. The design methodology integrates both primary and secondary data analysis, as well as a comprehensive site study covering climate, noise levels, circulation, and building orientation. The building form concept is developed modularly and efficiently through mass transformation, resulting in an inner court that provides natural light and air. Supported by energy-saving utilities, this design is expected to offer a student housing solution that is not only functional and aesthetic but also contributes to sustainable and high-quality urban development.

This study aims to examine the process of enacting Law Number 3 of 2022 concerning the Capital City, which was completed in a relatively short period of only 42 days. The main focus of this research is to assess whether the legislative process was in accordance with the principles of proper law-making as stipulated in Law Number 12 of 2011 on the Formation of Laws and Regulations. This study employs a normative legal research method with a literature-based approach, relying on the analysis of legislation, legal literature, and relevant official documents. The findings indicate that the drafting process of the Capital City Law was conducted hastily and did not fully comply with the applicable provisions. This is reflected in the limited public participation, the lack of transparency in the deliberation, and the absence of democratic principles that should guide the law-making process. The fact that the bill was deliberated in only 42 days demonstrates a legislative process that was neither ideal nor substantive in nature. Moreover, the accelerated process tends to reflect a conservative and elitist character, in which the aspirations of the wider community were insufficiently accommodated. In conclusion, the enactment of Law Number 3 of 2022 cannot be considered ideal from the perspective of constitutional law or democratic principles. Therefore, it is necessary to evaluate and reform legislative mechanisms to ensure that future law-making processes are more participatory, transparent, and truly reflective of the interests of the people.

A partnership agreement is a form of business collaboration, either directly or indirectly, that is established based on the principles of mutual need, mutual trust, mutual reinforcement, and mutual benefit. Such partnerships generally involve Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) working with larger businesses in order to create a fairer and more sustainable business relationship. However, in practice, the implementation of partnership agreements often does not reflect these fundamental principles. This is also evident in the nucleus-plasma scheme within the palm oil plantation sector, where the relationship between the nucleus companies and plasma farmers tends to show an imbalance of bargaining power. This study aims to examine the application of partnership principles in the implementation of nucleus-plasma agreements in palm oil plantations, viewed from the perspective of prevailing legislation, particularly the Law on Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSME Law). The findings indicate that the application of partnership principles has not yet been fully implemented consistently. The partnership relationship remains unequal and is largely dominated by the nucleus companies, creating a sense of injustice for plasma farmers. In terms of supervision, the Indonesian Business Competition Supervisory Commission (KPPU) plays a crucial role in ensuring that partnership agreements are carried out in line with these principles. One of the measures taken is monitoring the implementation of behavioral change commitments by business actors. KPPU ensures that nucleus companies do not abuse their dominant position and continue to provide fair opportunities for plasma farmers. Therefore, this study highlights the importance of strengthening oversight and enforcing regulations so that the objectives of nucleus-plasma partnerships in palm oil plantations can truly be realized in accordance with the principles mandated by law.

This community service program was designed to empower the women’s group PKK RT 01 RW 08 in Tembalang, Semarang, through education and innovation in processing used cooking oil into eco-friendly floor cleaner. Household cooking oil waste, commonly known as “jelantah,” is often discarded and contributes to environmental pollution, while in fact it can be reused as a valuable resource. The program aimed not only to provide technical skills but also to increase environmental awareness and promote sustainable household practices. The implementation took place over three months (June–August 2025) using a participatory approach that included socialization, training, mentoring, and evaluation. During the activities, participants were introduced to the principles of green chemistry, practiced step-by-step floor cleaner production, and learned packaging and digital marketing techniques. As a result, the group successfully produced 65 bottles of “Lely Eco Floor” cleaner (260% of the initial target), distributed them for household use, and established an environmental movement group named “Lely Bersih Lestari.” Pre- and post-test scores indicated significant improvement in participants’ knowledge and skills. The program brought multiple impacts: reducing oil waste pollution, enhancing social cohesion, and opening opportunities for micro-scale entrepreneurship. Overall, this activity demonstrates how simple technology and community engagement can support sustainable development and women’s empowerment at the grassroots level.

Based on the results of initial interviews and observations, it was found that several students still experienced difficulties in writing procedural texts effectively. These difficulties included a lack of understanding of the structure and characteristics of procedural texts, challenges in expressing ideas in written form, limited ability to compose coherent and communicative sentences, and the use of monotonous learning models that failed to stimulate student motivation. This study aims to describe the implementation of the Project Based Learning (PjBL) model based on the Tri N approach (Niteni, Niroke, and Nambahake) to improve the procedural text writing skills of fourth-grade students at Sidomukti Elementary School, Ambal Sub-district, Kebumen Regency, as well as to identify the improvement in writing skills after its application. The research employed a descriptive qualitative method with data collection techniques including observation, tests, and documentation. Data analysis was conducted through the stages of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings revealed that the application of the PjBL model integrated with Tri N values significantly improved students’ ability to write procedural texts. The learning process was carried out through six main stages of PjBL: formulating essential questions, planning projects, creating schedules, monitoring student activities, testing results, and evaluating learning experiences. The integration with Tri N principles encouraged students to understand, imitate, and develop their writing skills gradually. Thus, the PjBL model based on Tri N proved effective in helping students overcome writing difficulties while also fostering creativity, independence, and active participation in the learning process.

The freedom of expression in public is a human right guaranteed in Indonesia's legal system through Law No. 9 of 1998. The handling of public demonstrations by the Indonesian National Police, particularly the Samapta unit, plays a strategic role in maintaining order and security during protests. This study aims to analyze the role of the Samapta unit in managing public demonstrations, identify the challenges faced, and examine the implementation of human rights principles in crowd control. Using a normative legal method with a juridical normative approach, this study analyzes secondary data in the form of regulations, legal literature, and official documents, as well as primary data from Law No. 9 of 1998, Law No. 2 of 2002 concerning the Indonesian National Police, and related regulations. The results show that the role of the Samapta unit in managing public demonstrations includes three main aspects: preventive, repressive, and educational. The preventive role is carried out through coordination and security preparations as stipulated in Article 10 of Law No. 9 of 1998, the repressive role involves the dispersal of protests under certain conditions as per Article 15, and the educational role is implemented through socialization and community guidance. However, the implementation of human rights in protest security still faces challenges in aspects such as proportionality of force, non-discrimination, accountability, and public participation. The study concludes that, although it has a strong legal foundation, improvements in regulations, human resources capacity, and supervision systems are needed in handling public demonstrations.

Violent crimes such as armed robbery, terrorism, riots, and hostage-taking pose serious threats to public safety and order. In this context, the Brimob Pelopor Unit of the North Sumatra Regional Police plays a strategic role as a paramilitary police force trained to handle high-intensity threats. This research is driven by the urgency to examine the extent to which Brimob’s role is carried out within the framework of criminal law and the principles of fair, professional, and proportional law enforcement. The aim of this study is to analyze the legal foundations underlying the involvement of the Brimob Pelopor Unit in handling violent crimes, identify operational and institutional obstacles faced, and evaluate the strategies implemented within the context of law enforcement. The method employed is a descriptive qualitative approach, using data collection techniques such as interviews, observations, and document studies. The findings indicate that the Brimob Pelopor Unit of North Sumatra actively participates in operations against armed crime, riot control, and securing vital objects, based on clear legal provisions such as Law No. 2 of 2002 and police regulations regarding the use of force. Key challenges include limited personnel, tactical equipment shortages, bureaucratic delays, and public pressure concerning human rights issues. Nevertheless, various reinforcement strategies are being pursued through intensive training, inter-agency collaboration, and a humanistic approach to community engagement. This study concludes that Brimob’s role is crucial in Indonesia’s law enforcement system, though continuous reform is required to maintain professionalism and legal legitimacy amid complex national security challenges.
