On behalf of the organizing committee, it is my great pleasure to welcome all participants to the 2013 International Conference on Technology, Informatics, Management, Engineering & Environment (TIME-E 2013). This conference is the first international conference hosted by the IEEE Indonesia Control Systems Society & Robotics and Automation Society Joint Chapter. I am delighted that you have...
Mobile applications in Black Berry and Android were developed to simulate participants' waste recycling good practices shown as in Green House Gas emission kg CO2e reduction, and those applications were further incorporated within an environmental credit social system for good practices, based upon an environmental database. The exchange of the mobile QR codes, which takes place when a waste recycle...
Brain machine interfaces (BMIs) allow patients suffering from neuromuscular disorders to control the movement of robotic limb or wheelchair under their own guidance. So far only invasive technologies e.g. Electrocorticography (ECoG) or intracranial EEG (iEEG) have been widely acknowledged in the design of BMIs. In this paper Electroencephalography (EEG), a non-invasive technology, has been used. The...
Gel electrophoresis has become an important agent for scientists to study the genetics over the past decades. This paper describes an image processing enhancement approach to analyze the information in gel electrophoresis image. The research aims on developing an automatic technique to identify the lanes and bands. The initial phase in this work is on application of image pre-processing technique...
Finite Impulse Response (FIR) Filter can be designed by formulation of specifications which are for a particular application requirement. In this paper, an efficient FIR filter is designed using register minimization retiming technique. Also, an optimization environment is designed such that filter components of post retimed circuit such as adder and multiplier are upgraded depending on the VLSI design...
This paper presents the capability of acoustic emission (AE) technique in predicting the fatigue life of the SAE 1045 carbon steel. Using the Weibull distribution approach, the specific AE parameters and the number of cycles to failure of the tested specimens were correlated. In addition, the lives of specimens were also calculated using the available empirical models. The AE and strain signals that...
An estimation of GHG emission of waste cooking oil recycling producing bio diesel fuel, was undertaken in comparison with a complete use of cooking oil, the former is currently promoted in Bogor City, Indonesia, while the latter is commonly practiced by the street food stalls in the region. The functional unit covers, cooking oil production from crude palm oil, cooking use, waste cooking oil collection...
Jewelry fabrication process that includes technique like filing, piercing, grinding and drilling are amongst the popular application that have been widely used for such a long time. It is a known fact these processes usually would produce various type of metal scrap at the end of the process cycle. Thus, the gold scrap that is generated from the jewelry fabrication process need to be collected and...
In this paper, we propose control mechanism to reduce of environmental load as a stability model for connected directed network. The amount of change of environmental load is formulated as the global connected graph with a nonlinear mapping. The proposal technique can be utilized as signal control managing volume of environmental load. We first introduce feedback inputs that satisfy the Lyapunov asymptotically...
The renewable-energy sector is fast gaining ground as a new growth area for numerous countries with the vast potential it presents environmentally and economically. Solar energy plays an important role as a primary source of energy, especially for rural area. This paper presents the design and development of high-efficiency dual-axis solar tracking system using Arduino platform. Furthermore, the ultimate...
Separation of aromatics from aliphatics is challenging because of the close range of their boiling points and the formation of several combinations of azeotropes. Until now, no feasible separation process is available for aromatic concentrations below 20 wt%. In this work, we have investigated the possibility of using selected Deep Eutectic Solvents (DESs) for the liquid-liquid extraction of aromatics...
A simple tapered plastic optical fiber (POF) sensor was proposed and demonstrated as a humidity sensor based on the intensity modulation technique utilizing a tapered POF probe coated with a polymer blend of hydroxyethylcellulose/polyvinylidenefluoride (HEC/PVDF) composite which acts as the humidity sensitive cladding. The sensor was fabricated using an etching method and has a waist diameter of 0...
The paper considers the making of an optimum and environmentally friendly batik cleaner from Sapindus mukorossi (Lerak) by means of Taguchi method. The result shows that Taguchi method effectively reduces the number of required experiments required to find the optimum composition of the components. In addition, optimum control factors of a more environmentally friendly batik cleaner are obtained by...
Job satisfaction could simply be defined as how employees feel about their jobs. However, although it is simple to term, realistically job satisfaction is hard and very challenging to be fulfilled. Continuous efforts are being placed by organizations to ensure their employees are content by moving towards more humanistic approach in dealing with them and identifying roles of workers' life than just...
