"An efficient Region-Based Image Retrieval (RBIR) system must consider query region determination techniques and target regions in the retrieval process. A query region is a region that must contain a Region of Interest (ROI) or saliency region. A query region determination can be specified manually or automatically. However, manual determination is considered less efficient and tedious for users. The selected query region must determine specific target regions in the image collection to reduce the retrieval time. This study proposes a strategy of query region determination based on the Region Importance Index (RII) value and relative position of the Saliency Region Overlapping Block (SROB) to produce a more efficient RBIR. The entire region is formed by using the mean shift segmentation method. The RII value is calculated based on a percentage of the region area and region distance to the center of the image. Whereas the target regions are determined by considering the relative position of SROB, the performance of the proposed method is tested on a CorelDB dataset. Experimental results show that the proposed method can reduce the Average of Retrieval Time to 0.054 seconds with a 5x5 block size configuration."

"The relative significance ofthe parallel middle body and stern form in the wake formation of single-screwlarge ships and their contribution to the ship?s viscous resistance are studied by using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). A10450-DWT tanker is considered by varying the ratio of theparallel-middle-body?s length to the ship?s length (Lmb/L) and by varying the shape of the stern form from aV-like to a U-like underwater stern transom section. In all the calculations,the principal dimension and the displacement of the ships are kept constant. Alarger value for the parallel-middle-body relative length (Lmb/L) of ships with the same stern form results in alarger drag coefficient but does not affect the nominal wake fractionsignificantly. A change in the shape of the underwater stern form,from a V-like to a U-like section, results in a much larger drag coefficientascribed to the much larger wake fraction. The stern form dominantly affectsthe nominal wake fraction and the ship?s viscous resistance compared to theparallel-middle-body relative length."

"The findings of numerousstudies on the responses of stream quality indicatorsto different levels of watershed development have been integrated into an impervious cover model. The focus on one development stressor, namely theimpervious cover, allows the decision makers to use the impervious cover model as a watershed planning toolto forecast stream response. In evaluating streamquality, the studies used various indicators such as pollutant loads, habitatquality, aquatic species diversity and abundance, and others. This studyaims to test the applicability of the imperviouscover model as a tool to set the threshold of catchment area developmentbased on the targeted water quality index. Themodel is represented by a linear relationship between the water quality indexas a response variable and catchment area imperviousness as an explanatoryvariable. The study area is an urbanized catchment area of a cascade-pondsystem located at the campus of Universitas Indonesia, Depok, West Java.Estimation of catchment area imperviousness is based on digital globe imageryand digitized based on identified rooftops. The water quality data to computethe water quality indices are collected from previous studies and relatedreports. The targeted water quality index is determinedbased on water use suitability referring to the Indonesian governmentregulation number 82/2001. Basedon the available data, an increasing tendency of temporal variation ofcatchment area imperviousness for each pond can be recognized, while waterquality index of each pond tends to decrease over time. In accordance with landcover distribution, spatial tendency indicates that imperviousness isdecreasing in downstream direction, while water quality index is increasing indownstream direction, in line with the characteristics of cascade ponds. Theresults demonstrate that despite the fact that the available data are verylimited, it is possible to use the linear relationship between catchment areaimperviousness and water quality index as a tool to set the threshold forfuture development on the catchment area of the cascade-pond system at thecampus of Universitas Indonesia with a minimum water quality index suitablejust for recreation activities."

"Thepavement of the nailed-slab system has been proposed as analternative solution for addressing the rigid pavement problem in soft soils.This system is used for developing a rigid pavement. The simple method of using an equivalent modulus of subgrade reaction (k?) in nailed-slab system analysis wasproposed by a previous researcher. This modulus consists of the modulus of subgrade reaction from a plate load test(k) and an additional modulus ofsubgrade reaction due to pile installing (Dk). Theadditional modulus of subgrade reaction has been proposed by some authors. Thedisplacement factor was used in determining the additional modulus of subgradereaction. This factor is difficult to define. In this research, the prototypetest of a nailed slab with single-pile installation was conducted to learn thevalidation of the theory of the additional modulus of subgrade reaction on afull-scale dimension. The prototype was constructed on soft clay, and theconnection between the pile and slab was perfect monolithically. This systemwas loaded by centric load. A new curve of the displacement factor is proposed.Calculated deflections based on thiscurve were compared to the observed deflection andresulted in good agreement with the observation. Hence, it can be used in preliminary design."

"Thedevelopment of the construction industry in Indonesia has been substantiallycontributing to the enhancement of the social and economic development of thepeople. However, its expansion has also become an issue, as the developmentmight be implicated in the abuse of environmental sustainability when thepractices of conducting the construction project abandon the rules and regulationsof sustainable green construction concepts. Therefore, this study attempted tointroduce a quantitative assessment tool called the Green Construction SiteIndex (GCSI) to evaluate the performance of an ongoing project to meet thesustainable green construction concept. The aim of this study was toinvestigate the effectiveness of GCSI as a quantitative assessment tool tomeasure the implementation of the green construction concept conducted byongoing projects. Data were collected by onsite direct observation, interviewswith key personnel, and project documentation review. Data were organized andanalyzed using descriptive elaboration. The results showed that three aspects,the Efficiency Index (IE), Productivity Index (IP), andAwareness Index (IA), were effective in assessing 10 ongoingconstruction projects, categorized as Non-Commercial Non-Residential Building,Commercial Residential Building, and Commercial Non-Residential Building. Theindex generated using GCSI, upon assessing 10 buildings, was 3.39 and fell intothe Good category with IE = 3.51, IP = of 2.86, and IA= 3.84. Another finding shows that the Project Organizational CommitmentIndex (POCI) to the indicator ofthe GCSI was 3.31 (Good category) with IPOL = 3.36, IPRO =3.49, and IPRAC = 2.75. The capability of the GCSI to identify threeaspects within a construction project simultaneously and comprehensivelysuggests the importance of its function as an effective tool that givesbenefits to not only the contactors, but also to the authorities that controlthe green construction?related performance. Therefore, the GCSI is expected tobe applied as a standardized reference by both the construction industries andregulating authorities. Despite its satisfactory findings, the GCSI needs to befurthered to achieve its reliability and validity to be adopted internationally."

"Time synchronization is a vital process in wireless sensor networks, where energy sources are highly limited. In this work, we propose a broadcast-based skew correction technique that will improve both the accuracy and the lifetime of any time synchronization protocol that only corrects time offsets among sensor nodes. Using time information transmitted periodically by the root node, each client node can compensate its software clock frequency in real time after an initial offset correction. The experimental results show that a clock skew below 0.05 us/s can be consistently achieved with appropriate compensation parameters after the correction process is stabilized."

"The cloud is an outstandingplatform to deal with functionally equivalent services which are exponentiallyincreasing day-by-day. The selection of servicesto meet the client requirements is a subtle task. The services can be selected byranking all the candidate services using their network and non-network Quality-of-Service (QoS) parameters, which is formulated as a NP hard optimization problem. In this paper, weproposed a linear discriminant analysis (LDA) based a four level matching model for service selection based on QoS parameters,which includes description matching of a service, matchmaking phase, LDA-based QoS matching and ranking. The LDA-serviceselection agent is deployed on each cloud to classify services into classes andrank the services based on the aggregate QoS value of each service. Finally,the test results show the efficiency in service selection with minimaldiscovery overhead, significant reduction in the computation time and thenumber of candidate services to be considered."
