The 2020 Household Drinking Water Quality Study (SKAMRT) by the Indonesian Ministry of Health revealed that 70% of households consume water contaminated with bacteria, including Escherichia coli (E-coli). Although 93% of Indonesia's population has access to adequate drinking water, only 11.9% meets safety standards. Regular quality testing, especially for turbidity, is essential with increasing water consumption. However, effective real-time monitoring remains a challenge. Advances in the Internet of Things (IoT) offer an efficient approach to water quality monitoring. This study develops an IoT-based system using the Fuzzy Tsukamoto method to monitor drinking water quality. The system integrates a turbidity sensor, NodeMCU ESP8266 microcontroller, and Firebase for data storage. Turbidity values ​​in Nephelometric Turbidity Unit (NTU) are processed by the Fuzzy Tsukamoto method to assess quality. The research results show that bottled drinking water with a turbidity level of 0.83 NTU meets the standards set by the Indonesian Minister of Health Regulation 492/Menkes/Per/IV/2010 and SNI 01-3553-2006, which means it is safe based on the turbidity level.</span></span></span></span></p> April Firman Daru, Alauddin Maulana Hirzan, Ferry Bagus Saputra, Paminto Agung Christianto Copyright (c) 2024 Journal of Advanced Computing Technology and Application (JACTA) https://ojsdemo.utem.edu.my/jacta/article/view/5291 Fri, 29 Nov 2024 00:00:00 +0000 EFFICIENT DONATION, SUSTAINABLE IMPACT: UNVEILING THE CLOTHES RECYCLE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM https://ojsdemo.utem.edu.my/jacta/article/view/5293 <p>This paper presents the development of the Clothes Recycle Management System (CRMS), designed to address the inefficiencies in the current methods of promoting and managing clothing donations, which rely heavily on manual processes and social media. The objective of this study is to create and implement a unified, user-friendly platform that streamlines the donation process, enhances accessibility, and improves the overall efficiency of clothing donation activities. Key features of the system include event organization, item tracking, automated reporting, and a points-based incentive scheme that encourages donations. Additionally, the system provides transparency by informing users about the destination of their donations, fostering trust and engagement. The findings demonstrate that CRMS significantly simplifies donation coordination, increases donor participation through the incentive scheme, and offers reliable data for stakeholders to assess the impact of their efforts. This study concludes that CRMS is a viable solution for enhancing sustainability and community involvement in clothing donations, with the potential for broader application in other donation-driven initiatives.</p> N.

In the digital age, effective use of digital tools is crucial for entrepreneurial success. This study aims to assess the current digital proficiency among students and determine its impact on their entrepreneurial tendencies. The study focuses on 100 respondents from the Diploma of Marketing and Diploma of Business Studies programs within the Commerce Department, Politeknik Merlimau. All of them have enrolled in a digital entrepreneurship course for one semester. A quantitative method was employed, utilizing surveys to gather data. The survey assessed students' skills in various digital platforms, including social media, e-commerce, digital marketing, and online collaboration tools, as well as their attitudes towards entrepreneurship and their experiences with digital tools in entrepreneurial activities. The study found a strong positive correlation between students' digital platform skills and their entrepreneurial tendencies, indicating that as students become more proficient in using digital tools, their interest in entrepreneurship increases. The findings suggest that integrating digital skills into educational programs is crucial for fostering entrepreneurial intentions among students, preparing them for success in the digital economy.</p> Rabi’ah Seman, Rusmaini Ramly Copyright (c) https://ojsdemo.utem.edu.my/jacta/article/view/5294 Fri, 29 Nov 2024 00:00:00 +0000 REVIEW OF WIRELESS COMMUNICATION LAYER INTERFACE ON ADVANCED METER INFRASTRUCTURE https://ojsdemo.utem.edu.my/jacta/article/view/5287 <p>Advanced Metering Infrastructure is a technology that will be implemented in Indonesia along with the current growth of information technology. Indonesia has natural conditions consisting of mountains and oceans. The problem of selecting an appropriate network to support AMI conditions in Indonesia is significant. This research will examine the benefits of various existing wireless technologies. We will examine several important parameters such as cost, range, data transfer speed, etc. The review results show it has the best potential among other communication interfaces. The advantages of LoRaWAN include comprehensive coverage, low energy consumption, low implementation costs, and extensive network scalability.</p> Ruliyanta Ruliyanta, Idris Kusuma; Mohammad Fathoni Copyright (c) 2024 Journal of Advanced Computing Technology and Application (JACTA) https://ojsdemo.utem.edu.my/jacta/article/view/5287 Fri, 29 Nov 2024 00:00:00 +0000
