As a high populated country, one of Indonesia major problem is unemployment. The Indonesian government has been working on several programs to reduce the unemployment level. In the province level, Disnakertrans Jatim has several initiatives, including: developing Employment Service Center as well as Online Job Service Center. The number of Internet users is increasing significantly in the last several years, including in Indonesia. The use of Information Technology is expected to assist the job seekers to find jobs, and allows companies to find workers effectively. This paper discusses about the development of the Online Job Service Center

The article considers the issue of creating cognitive information technology to support the implementation of NATO standards, which is also inherent in the means of communication of modern telecommunications systems in the Armed Forces of Ukraine and other components of the security and defense sector of Ukraine. It is noted that assessing the state of implementation of NATO standards is a rather complex and important process that requires the analysis of a large amount of poorly structured and unstructured information with varying degrees of restriction of access, which greatly complicates its analysis and processing. The effective use of information technology to solve these problems directly depends on the level of interaction between information processes. The nature of the interaction between them determines their network orientation, and in the environment of the system should be used tools that use information resources from different fields of knowledge. A number of problems have been identified, which are the redundancy, complexity and irrelevance of the regulatory framework in the field of defense; obsolescence of standards and their incompatibility with modern systems, etc. To eliminate them, it is proposed to use cognitive information technology with elements of artificial intelligence, and to assess the state of implementation of standards, it is proposed to use the method of recursive reduction. This method will be used both for structuring and for forming ontologies based on them. A further direction of research initiated in this article is the introduction of the proposed cognitive information technology in the activities of the governing bodies of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and other components of the security and defense sector.

Information technology (IT) has radically improved many aspects of organisational activities. Computer-based information systems (CBIS) are constantly developed more effective and efficient. Development of a new CBIS is justified by higher quality of work, more efficient work processes, and more flexible work practices. However, introduction of the new IS can produce a variety of problems. This paper describes the problems observed in the use of a library CBIS in a Finnish scientific library. The results of the study illustrate well the environment which should be understood by the designers of computer-based information systems. One important prerequisite of good (re)design is a wide understanding of the problems that may prevent effective use of a CBIS. In this study we introduce a classification based on the problems which were found in the case. The classification describes the causes and effects of the observed problems.

In 1998, Malaysia opened its first hospital based on the "paperless and filmless" concept. Two are now in operation, with more to follow. Telemedicine is now being used in some hospitals and is slated to be the technology to watch. Future use of technology in health care will centre on the use of centralised patient databases and more effective use of artificial intelligence. Stumbling blocks include the enormous capital costs involved and difficulty in getting sufficient bandwidth to support applications on a national scale. Problems with the use of information technology in developing countries still remain; mainly inadequate skilled resources to operate and maintain the technology, lack of home-grown technology, insufficient experience in the use of information technology in health care and the attitudes of some health staff. The challenge for those involved in this field will not be in building new "paperless and filmless" institutions but in transforming current "paper and film-based" institutions to "paperless and filmless" ones and changing the mindset of health staff. Universities and medical schools must be prepared to respond to this new wave by incorporating elements of medical/health informatics in their curriculum and assisting governments in the planning and implementation of these projects. The experience of the UMMC is highlighted as an example of the difficulty of transforming a paper-based hospital to a "paperless and filmless" hospital. Asia Pac J Public Health 2004; 16(1): 64-71.

This study aims to determine how well the use of information technology-based learning media. The development of information technology is utilized in all aspects of human life, including education. The learning media that will befocused on being developed is Power Point. Power Point is one of the learning media that is already familiar among educators and students, because of its easy and effective use. The method used in this study is a development method based on the ADDIE Model (Analyze, Design, Development, Implement, and Evaluate) proposed by Dick and Carey, namely research and development carried out in several stages: 1) Analyzing the needs of educators and students 2) Product design, 3) Product development, 4) Product implementation, and 5) Product evaluation. Based on the stages carried out obtained learning media products that are considered feasible and are needed by students after validating and testing the product. The validation of media experts obtained 92%, and material 99%. Meanwhile, based on user ratings obtained by 86%.
