The development of learning media model becomes a necessity for improving the quality of education in Indonesia. Following the development of technology and information, new models continue to be developed, one of which is comic. This study aims to develop a model of electronic comic (e-Comic) as a medium of learning. With the ADDIE development method, it is done through needs analysis, model design, prototype development, prototype implementatio (testing) and evaluation of prototype implementation results to the field. The result is a comic electronic model in which graphic-shaped graphics are highlighted to deliver learning materials in accordance with the applicable curriculum. The material is delivered in story form so the delivery is not rigid. Implementation of field trial prorotype obtained data that the user liked the model of this e-Comic learning media and feel like learning to read comics with digital format. The conclusion of the development of e-Comic model, innovative learning media, fun, effective and efficient, so as to increase the students' attention in understanding the subject AbstrakPengembangan model media pembelajaran menjadi kebutuhan untuk peningkatan kualitas pendidikan di Indonesai. Mengikuti perkembangan teknologi dan informasi, model-model baru terus dikembangkan dari waktu ke waktu. Komik yang dimaknai sebagai sebuah gambar kartun berteks mampu menyampaikan sebuah pesan dengan gaya yang ringan dan menyenangkan.Tujuan pembuatan model ini untuk membuat sebuah model berformat elektronik komik (E-komik) sebagai media pembelajaran menyampaikan materi pendidikan. Dengan metode pengembangan ADDIE, yang dimulai dengan kegiatan Analisis Kebutuhan, Desain/Perancangan Model, Development Prototype, Implementasi Prototype berbentuk ujicoba prototype ke user dan dilanjutkan dengan Evaluasi hasil implementasi prototype ke lapangan model Elektronik komik ini dikembangkan. Hasil dari pengembangan ini adalah sebuah model elektronik komik yang didalamnya berupa grafis berbentuk kartun ditonjolkan untuk menyampaikan materi-materi pembelajaran sesuai dengan kurikulum yang berlaku di sekolah. Materi disampaikan dalam bentuk cerita sehingga penyampaiannya tidak kaku. Implementasi ujicoba prorotype dilapangan diperoleh data bahwa user menyukai model media pembelajaran E-komik ini dan merasa belajar seperti membaca komik dengan format digital. Kesimpulan pengembangan model E-komik yang dilakukan menjadi salah satu jawaban atas kebutuhan terhadap media pembelajaran yang inovatif, menyenangkan, efektif dan efisien, sehingga dapat meningkatkan perhatian siswa dalam memahani mata ajar. Untuk itu penerapannya dapat dilakukan secara bertahap pada SMA tertentu.

This chapter represents the business case in the telecommunication company called Veza, in domain of churn prediction and churn mitigation. The churn project was divided into few stages. Due to limited budget and cost optimization, stage one was concentrated on prospective customer value calculation model based on fuzzy expert system. This helps Veza company to find most valuable telecom subscribers. It also helped company to better understand subscriber portfolio structure. Developed fuzzy expert system also helped Veza company in detection of soft churn. Stage two is profiling and customer segmentation based on time series analysis which provided potential predictors for predictive churn model. The central stage was concentrated on developing traditional predictive churn model based on logistic regression. This calculated probability that subscribers will make churn in next few months. The final stage was dedicated to SNA (Social Network Analysis) model development which found out the most valuable customers from the perspective of existing subscriber network. This model gave the answer that subscribers have the greatest influence on other subscribers in a way what is dangerous if they leave Veza company because they will motivate other subscribers to do the same thing. All three stages made complete churn detection/mitigation solution which take into consideration past behaviour of subscribers, their prospective value, and their strength of influence on other subscribers. This project helped Veza company to decrease churn rate and it gave directions for better understanding customer needs and behaviour which were the base for new product development.

The objective of this study was to develop a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system optimization control strategy involving fan coil unit (FCU) temperature control for energy conservation in chilled water systems to enhance the operating efficiency of HVAC systems. The proposed control strategy involves three techniques, which are described as follows. The first technique is an algorithm for dynamic FCU temperature setting, which enables the FCU temperature to be set in accordance with changes in the outdoor temperature to satisfy the indoor thermal comfort for occupants. The second technique is an approach for determining the indoor cold air demand, which collects the set FCU temperature and converts it to the refrigeration ton required for the chilled water system; this serves as the control target for ensuring optimal HVAC operation. The third technique is a genetic algorithm for calculating the minimum energy consumption for an HVAC system. The genetic algorithm determines the pump operating frequency associated with minimum energy consumption per refrigeration ton to control energy conservation. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed HVAC system optimization control strategy combining FCU temperature control, this study conducted a field experiment. The results revealed that the proposed strategy enabled an HVAC system to achieve 39.71% energy conservation compared with an HVAC system operating at full load.

Formative feedback plays an important role in assisting students in their learning process. However, giving information about student weaknesses and strengths is one of the challenges teachers face when they try to implement formative assessment. This study aims to develop a web-based formative feedback system that is able to provide a specific one. This is a development research with steps including needs analysis, model design, model development, and limited model testing. The research has succeeded in developing a web-based formative feedback system through utilizing isomorphic items. The results of the initial test showed that the model can provide timely and effective formative feedback both individually and in groups of students. The use of this model also allows the teachers to discuss student’s learning difficulties in real time responses. The results of this study need to be followed up with the implementation of this model in more extensive trial.
