The Indonesian manufacturing industry is currently facing intense pressure due to global economic fluctuations and domestic volatility, prompting a strategic reassessment of sustainability practices to maintain competitiveness. While firm value reflects investor confidence, discrepancies remain between operational performance and market valuation, particularly in highly profitable firms. This study aims to systematically investigate how internal corporate factors namely dividend policy, firm size, and green accounting influence firm value. Using a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method, ten journal articles published between 2023 and 2025 were selected based on indexation (SINTA, Scopus, Copernicus), methodological clarity, and variable alignment. The articles were screened and analyzed using content analysis techniques, supported by Microsoft Excel and Mendeley for structured data extraction. The findings reveal that a stable dividend policy serves as a strong signal of financial stability, firm size reinforces strategic positioning and resource capacity, and green accounting strengthens legitimacy through sustainability disclosure. These factors jointly shape market perceptions and ultimately influence firm valuation. The synthesis supports both signal theory and legitimacy theory in explaining the transmission of value through internal policies. This study contributes theoretically by integrating financial and sustainability variables into a unified value framework and offers practical insights for corporate decision-makers seeking to align internal strategies with investor expectations. Limitations include reliance on secondary data and scope restricted to the manufacturing sector. Future studies should explore empirical validation through cross-sectoral analysis and primary data to enrich the findings.

Conciliation is one form of Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) that holds great potential for resolving disputes efficiently, participatively, and peacefully outside the courtroom. However, in the Indonesian legal practice, the role of conciliation remains limited and is less popular compared to mediation and arbitration. The main obstacles hindering the development of this mechanism include low public and legal practitioners' awareness, the absence of adequate technical regulations, and the lack of professional conciliation institutions. In fact, conciliation aligns well with Indonesia's legal culture that emphasizes deliberation and consensus. The purpose of this article is to examine the effectiveness of the legal framework for conciliation in Indonesia, identify the barriers to its implementation, and formulate strategies to strengthen conciliation within the national legal system. This study employs a normative juridical method with a statutory and doctrinal approach, complemented by analysis of applicable legislation and legal literature. The findings reveal that conciliation lacks a strong and operational legal framework. The absence of procedural standards, supervisory mechanisms, and training systems for conciliators hampers its effectiveness. On the other hand, conciliation has great potential to reduce the burden on courts, expedite dispute resolution, and preserve good relationships between parties. The article concludes that a comprehensive legal reform is urgently needed, including specific regulations, the establishment of independent conciliation institutions, and public education, so that conciliation can play a strategic role in the national dispute resolution system.

Engine overheating is a critical condition that can cause damage to internal components, reduce operational efficiency, and lead to overall system failure. The absence of an automatic protection system is one of the primary factors contributing to damage. This study aims to design and test a temperature sensor-based safety device that can automatically cut off the engine's working system when the temperature exceeds the safe limit. The method used is descriptive statistical analysis to evaluate the effect of independent variables (operational time duration and workload) on the dependent variable (coolant temperature). The system was tested through water heating simulation using an electric heater and controlled by an Arduino Nano microcontroller, a MAX6675 temperature sensor. Testing was carried out with variations in power load (150, 300, 450, 600, and 750 Watts) and operational duration (20, 40, and 60 minutes). Temperature data were collected and analyzed using ANOVA to determine the effect of load and time on temperature increase. The results showed that the temperature increased significantly with increasing power load, with temperatures approaching 100°C at loads ≥450 Watts in less than 20 minutes. The load variable shows a significant effect on temperature (p < 0.05), while the duration of time shows a nonlinear but not statistically significant upward trend. The safety device is proven to be able to automatically disconnect the system when the temperature reaches the specified maximum limit, thus effectively preventing engine damage due to overheating.

This study proposes a hybrid approach combining Frequent Itemset Mining (FIM) and Algorithms and Genetic Algorithm for product layout optimization with a case study at PT. MPI Pharmacy. The FIM Algorithms is employed to extract association rules from 1,000 beauty product sales transactions, while the Genetic Algorithm is utilized to perform product placement based on these rules generated, with storage space constraints. Implementation results demonstrate that this hybrid approach successfully identifies 18 key association rules (support >15, confidence >80%) and proposes an optimal layout configuration model that reduces customer travel distance by 25 compared to conventional layouts used by MPI Pharmacy. The Genetic Algorithm solves complex rule-based optimization problems for product placement, which are limited by traditional market basket analysis (MBA) approaches that rely solely on association rules. This hybrid sistem not only improves pharmacy operational efficiency at PT MPI (reducing service time by 18) but also increases cross-selling opportunities by 22. Hence, inventory operations management impproved efficiently. The research findings contribute to the field of retail space optimization by effectively integrating association rule mining and evolutionary computation.
