SISTEM INFORMASI ASET ORGANISASI MUHAMMADIYAH CABANG MINGGIR YOGYAKARTA BERBASIS WEBSITE

Kebutuhan Informasi aset Organisasi Muhammadiyah Cabang Minggir saat ini dilakukan dengan meminta kepada pengelola amal usaha untuk aset data. Akibatnya Pimpinan Cabang tidak bisa mendapatkan informasi aset secara langsung saat dibutuhkan. Untuk mengatasi masalah tersebut, peneliti mencoba menganalisis dan membangun sistem informasi organisasi aset menggunakan metode pengembangan sistem informasi SDLC (Systems Development Life Cycle) dengan model Waterfall, desain model proses DFD (Data Flow Diagram), desain model data ERD (Entity Relationship Diagram), desain antarmuka, dan desain database. Aplikasi yang dihasilkan berupa prototype sistem informasi aset yang akan digunakan Pimpinan Cabang untuk inventarisasi aset. Aplikasi berbasis website responsif yang fleksibel untuk diakses dari segi waktu dan tempat serta mampu menghadirkan antarmuka yang dapat beradaptasi dengan perangkat pengguna.

Knowledge Retention Challenges in Information Systems Development Teams

Information systems development (ISD) is an integral part of organizational agility in today’s competitive business environment. High turnover, agile ways of working, and fluid work environments pose challenges for ISD. This paper explores the erosion of knowledge retention (KR) arising from ISD staff churn in a New Zealand-based financial organization in the aftermath of a major earthquake. In this exploratory study, the authors develop a causal model of KR in the ISD context, which articulates the challenges to and consequences of ineffective KR at the routine and exiting stages of KR. The model identifies four challenges—coordination complexity, insufficient resources for knowledge retention, insufficient attention to knowledge retention, and slow staff replacement and handover processes—that can affect the loss of ISD knowledge when routine and exiting KR fall into disarray. This study also reveals that role stress and reduced ISD agility reinforce the cycle of knowledge loss.

Challenges of Adopting DevOps for Combat Systems Development Environment

The Department of Defense (DoD) is often exhorted to adopt best practices from industry, and more recently, innovation in software development as exemplified by Silicon Valley. Yet, the DoD is vastly different from industry in multiple aspects, and adoption of such practices is not as straightforward as in industry. This article investigates the challenges of adopting Development and Operations (DevOps) in the U.S. Navy for combat systems. The authors conducted interviews of multiple subject matter experts in the Navy and DoD familiar with software development, DevOps, and the DoD’s acquisition processes. The observations collected from the interviews were organized and classified into either organizational, process, regulatory challenges, and technical challenges. The majority of the challenges cited were nontechnical challenges dealing with regulations, organization culture, and process. Knowledge of the challenges could help acquisition leaders in planning for, and adapting DevOps to, the Navy’s acquisition process to improve DoD’s software development and maintenance processes.

Critical Thinking in Research and Analysis

This chapter reviews the need for critical thinking and analysis and the art of reasoning and looks at quantitative and qualitative research methodologies and the situations where they are appropriate. The chapter reviews the question of why the analysis required for business development is so critical. Why is gathering the information needed for business development more difficult than gathering information for information systems development? To understand these questions, it is necessary to review the range and complexity of the information required for business research and analysis. The internal performance data must be evaluated and the actual economic position of the organisation established. The critical value elements of the organisation's resources need to be identified and the competencies established. The competitive environment must be researched together with the external factors that impact the organization, and all the interactions that result must be evaluated.

Artificial Intelligence-Based Aircraft Accident Threat Parrying Method

An anti-aircraft accident method is proposed, implemented in the decision support module, which is the main element of the flight safety control system and is a dynamic expert system. On the basis of the proposed method, recommendations are formed to the threat countering crew accidents using the information about its psychophysical state, the technical state an aircraft, external influencing factors, as well as a forecast of changes in flight conditions. The advantage of the proposed method is the ability to identify the immediate threat of an accident, as well as the development of management decisions to reduce the impact of the cause of the accident on flight safety. The peculiarity of the method of parrying the threat of an aircraft accident is the classification of management decisions depending on the flight conditions of the aircraft, which will reduce the computational costs for generating a threat parrying signal. Numerical modeling of the work using the assessment of a set of decision support rules made it possible to confirm its performance. The results can be used in systems development for safety an aircraft’s flight, the mathematical support of decision support systems.
