Logung Reservoir in Kudus Regency is one of the reservoirs with priority for flood management. The threat of sedimentation in the reservoir is extremely high. To prevent sedimentation in the reservoir, it is necessary to prepare an efficient sediment control method that is affordable, easy, and yields optimal results. This research will compare the economic efficiency of two sediment control methods in the reservoir: the construction of Check Dams (CD) upstream and sediment dredging in the reservoir using heavy equipment. The smallest Future Value Cost (FVc) value for 50 years between the CD construction method and Reservoir Dredging is an indication of a more efficient control method. FVc CD analysis is based on construction value, Operation, and maintenance every year, and Rehabilitation assumption every 3 years, and FVc Reservoir dredging is the operational cost of dredging once every 5 years and Rehabilitation assumption every 4 years, with the same volume of sediment. The analysis results based on a 5% internal rate show that the FVc for Check Dams is Rp. 8,584.72 billion, and the FVc for reservoir dredging, including crop losses, is Rp. 55,858.1 billion. Thus, sediment control using the construction and operation of check dams is more efficient.

Management of household waste in Final Disposal Sites (TPA) faces a serious problem, where most of the waste accumulates and is difficult to decompose due to its complex nature. This condition substantially inhibits natural decomposition processes and limits the effectiveness of recycling efforts. Pre-processing operations, such as sorting and crushing, which are still dominated by manual methods, are proven to be inefficient, high-risk, and require large allocations of land resources and manpower. Therefore, automated technological innovation is needed to facilitate the efficient separation of organic components from inorganic materials (packaging). This research was conducted to determine the design and structural strength analysis of a hammer mill type depackaging machine, carried out using Solidworks software. Structural analysis simulation utilizes Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to determine the structural strength of the machine. The specifications of the hammer mill type depackaging machine include a capacity of 3000 kg/hour, a hammer mill input power of 12 KW, and a rotational speed of 2500 rpm with a torque of 34.54 Nm. Meanwhile, the screw conveyor input power is 0.75 KW and the rotational speed is 20 rpm. The FEA simulation analysis results for the hammer mill type depackaging machine showed that the maximum Von Mises stress value recorded is 3,022×10^7   N⁄m^2 , the maximum displacement value measured is very minimal, namely 2,793×10^(-1)  mm, and the Factor of Safety (FOS) obtained is 8.3. This FOS value significantly exceeds the required minimum safety limit (>3), confirming that the machine design has optimal reliability, fatigue resistance, and structural integrity for operation under intensive working conditions at the TPA. The conclusion of this study indicates that the engineering design of this hammer mill type depackaging machine is safe and meets structural technical requirements to proceed to the implementation phase, potentially becoming a sustainable technological solution in improving the efficiency of waste pre-processing.

The use of Search-Based Software Engineering (SBSE) for optimizing software architecture has evolved from fully automated to interactive approaches, integrating human expertise. However, current interactive tools face limitations: they typically support only single decision-makers, confine architects to passive roles, and induce significant cognitive fatigue from repetitive evaluations. These issues disconnect them from modern, team-based software development, where collaboration and consensus are crucial. To address these shortcomings, we propose "ArchEvolve," a novel framework designed to facilitate collaborative, multi-architect decision-making. ArchEvolve employs a cooperative coevolutionary model that concurrently evolves a population of candidate architectures and distinct populations representing each architect's unique preferences. This structure guides the search towards high-quality consensus solutions that accommodate diverse, often conflicting, stakeholder viewpoints. An integrated Artificial Neural Network (ANN) serves as a preference learning module, trained on explicit team feedback to act as a surrogate evaluator. This active learning cycle substantially reduces the number of required human interactions and alleviates user fatigue. Empirical evaluation on two industrial case studies (E-Commerce System and Healthcare Management System) compared ArchEvolve to a state-of-the-art interactive baseline. Results indicate that ArchEvolve achieves statistically significant improvements in both solution quality and consensus-building. The preference learning module demonstrated over 90% accuracy in predicting team ratings and reduced human evaluations by up to 46% without compromising final solution quality. ArchEvolve provides a practical, scalable framework supporting collaborative, consensus-driven architectural design, making interactive optimization a more viable and efficient tool for real-world software engineering teams by intelligently integrating cooperative coevolutionary search with a preference learning surrogate.

Administrative services for civil servants (ASN) play a crucial role in ensuring the rights and obligations of government employees. One of these services is the submission process for the Wife Card (KARIS) and Husband Card (KARSU), which serve as official proof of marital status for civil servants. At the BKPSDM of Sumba Barat Daya, the current submission process for KARIS and KARSU is still carried out manually by filling out paper forms and attaching physical documents. This manual method is time-consuming, prone to data errors, and complicates the monitoring process. Therefore, this study aims to develop a digital information system to simplify the submission, verification, and issuance process of KARIS and KARSU online. This research applies a Research and Development (R&D) approach using the Waterfall model, consisting of requirement analysis, system design, implementation, testing, and evaluation stages. The system is developed using the Python (Streamlit) programming framework and a SQLite3 database, designed to be easily accessible to both ASN users and BKPSDM officers through local networks or the internet. The results show that the developed system successfully reduces processing time by up to 60%, improves data accuracy by 90%, and significantly decreases the use of physical documents. The implementation of this digital information system makes the KARIS and KARSU administrative service more efficient, transparent, and accountable, supporting the ongoing digital transformation within the local government of Sumba Barat Daya Regency.
