ANALYZING THE IMPACT OF INTERDEPENDENT DIMENSION ON TARGET ATTRIBUTEJournal For Research
Until today, most lecturers in universities are found still using the conventional methods of taking students attendance either by calling out the student names or by passing around an attendance sheet for students to sign confirming their presence.This project is absolutely on the android-based attendance management system. Android based attendance system provides efficient means of determining eligibility criteria for students to meet examination requirements. [1] The core idea of research project is to implement Android based application for attendance management system for advancement of institution and educational system [2]. This system enables student to learn anywhere, anytime and at their own convenience. This system makes students to be active, responsive while learning their academic. Another application that is provided by this system is smart attendance evaluation and report generation. [2]This makes the work even easier for the lecturers. Also there is a separate module for analyzing the results of the test exams of the students. There is a certain criterion to be met for each and every student to appearing for the test exam. The main objective of this paper is to provide an overview on the data mining techniques that have been used to predict students performance. [3]A certain action can be taken on students not fulfilling the criteria. This process basically aims at improving the overall student performance by taking into consideration student attendance and test marks.
Optimized Active Learning for User’s Behavior Modelling based on Non-Intrusiv...IJECEIAES
In order to protect the data in the smartphone, there is some protection mechanism that has been used. The current authentication uses PIN, password, and biometric-based method. These authentication methods are not sufficient due to convenience and security issue. Non-Intrusive authentication is more comfortable because it just collects user’s behavior to authenticate the user to the smartphone. Several non-intrusive authentication mechanisms were proposed but they do not care about the training sample that has a long data collection time. This paper propose a method to collect data more efficient using Optimized Active Learning. The Support Vector Machine (SVM) used to identify the effect of some small amount of training data. This proposed system has two main functionalities, to reduce the training data using optimized stop rule and maintain the Error Rate using modified model analysis to determine the training data that fit for each user.Finally, after we done the experiment, we conclude that our proposed system is better than Threshold-based Active Learning. The time required to collect the data can reduced to 41% from 17 to 10 minutes with the same Error Rate.
MEASURING UTILIZATION OF E-LEARNING COURSE DISCRETE MATHEMATICS TOWARD MOTIVA...AM Publications
In the implementation of learning E-Learning which has been implemented by the Mercu Buana University in recent years had a positive impact on students and lecturer. However, in some course such as Discrete Mathematics perceived by lecturer and student have several problems such as difficulty from lecturer to explain some of the logic material or analysis algorithm problem. Students also do not understand clearly if only read from the text that is presented through the e learning process. Effectiveness basically is attainment of precise goal or selecting the appropriate objectives from a series of alternative or choice of ways and determine the choice of several other options. Effectiveness can also be interpreted as a measure of success in achieving the goals that have been determined. As an example if a task can finish with choice of ways which is already determine, then that way is correct or effective.
In this paper the complicated task of educational software evaluation is revisited and examined from a
different point of view. By the means of Educational Data Mining (EDM) techniques, in the present study
177 of the most common evaluation standards that have been proposed by various researchers are
examined and evaluated with regards to the degree they affect the effectiveness of educational software.
More specifically, via the employment of prediction, feature selection and relationship mining techniques
we investigate for the underlying rationale hidden within the data collected from experiments conducted at
the Department of Education of the University of Patras with regards to the software evaluation task and
the results of this study are presented and discussed in a quantitative and qualitative way.
The activities of Student Real Work Lecture (KKN) in University of Madura still
have some obstacles. One of which is the length of process in choosing a place for
KKN because of the continuous changes of temporary residence by many students.
This process requires accuracy, because registered KKN participants should be
provided a place that is in fairly close distance to their residence (boarding
house/house) therefore causing various problems. The process is normally carried out
by subjective assessment of the person in charge of KKN student manually. Therefore,
to facilitate and assist the LPPM in determining the location of KKN, it is necessary
to build a computerized Management Information System that could help the process
of determining the location of the Real Work Lecture. Based on these problems, it is
necessary to design and implement a management information system using
Algorithms (Distance Matrix) that can help in determining the location of student
KKN at Madura University. This community service aims to implement the MIS-KKN
at Madura University to help improve the quality of Student Real Work Lectures..
PNSCares: The android based mobile application to manage student complaintsjournalBEEI
Managing the complaint is tough to handle, efficient response to the complaints from the customer can be an indicator to measure an organization’s performance. We’ve chosen Politeknik Nilai as one of the institutions that are facing daily complaints from the students and parents. Currently, they are using the manual form to lodge a complaint and receive the feedback via email. In this study, we developed an android based mobile application to manage the students’ complaint. With mobile apps, the management can prevent the loss of complaint forms and keep track of the records. This system will send feedback and notification directly via students’ mobile phone. This study referred to the ten principles for effective complaint handling by Ombudsman. We only referred to eight principles to construct the PNSCares. The methodology used to develop mobile apps is using the Mobile Application Development Life Cycle (MADLC). System Usability Scale (SUS) is used to measure the effectiveness of the mobile apps. The feedbacks from ten respondents on the PNSCares prototype are good with 72 scores in SUS for perceived usefulness and ease of use factor. Based on the result, the prototype is effective and easy to use.

CRITERION BASED AUTOMATIC GENERATION OF QUESTION PAPERvivatechijri
In any educational course curriculum, the courses are defined with learning objectives. Teachers conduct assessments to know if students have achieved certain learning objectives or not. The Proposed System provides a solution to choose challenging, well framed questions and make it easy for the user to generate it within a short period of time. The existing tools are rigid and support very basic or limited parameters. In our system we allow admin and user to input a set of questions and mark them with parameters such as difficulty level, complexity, type of question, module, min and max weightage. It contains two modules namely admin module and user module and the question management makes it an effortless task. From the entered input the paper is generated and saved as a .pdf file which can be kept for own or distributed as per the user or admin requirements. The required software and hardware are easily available and easy to work with. The goal is to simplify its current manual method, by means of computerised equipment and complete computer applications, in order to meet its needs, so that its important data/information can be stored for a longer period of time with easy access and manipulation. Basically the project describes how to manage for good performance and better services for the clients.
Abstract
Mostly 5 to 15% of the women in the stage of reproduction face the disease called Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) which is the multifaceted, heterogeneous and complex. The long term consequences diseases like endometrial hyperplasia, type 2 diabetes mellitus and coronary disease are caused by the polycystic ovaries, chronic anovulation and hyperandrogenism are characterized with the resistance of insulin and the hypertension, abdominal obesity and dyslipidemia and hyperinsulinemia are called as Metabolic syndrome (frequent metabolic traits) The above cause the common disease called Anovulatory infertility. Computer based information along with advanced Data mining techniques are used for appropriate results. Classification is a classic data mining task, with roots in machine learning. Naïve Bayesian, Artificial Neural Network, Decision Tree, Support Vector Machines are the classification tasks in the data mining. Feature selection methods involve generation of the subset, evaluation of each subset, criteria for stopping the search and validation procedures. The characteristics of the search method used are important with respect to the time efficiency of the feature selection methods. PCA (Principle Component Analysis), Information gain Subset Evaluation, Fuzzy rough set evaluation, Correlation based Feature Selection (CFS) are some of the feature selection techniques, greedy first search, ranker etc are the search algorithms that are used in the feature selection. In this paper, a new algorithm which is based on Fuzzy neural subset evaluation and artificial neural network is proposed which reduces the task of classification and feature selection separately. This algorithm combines the neural fuzzy rough subset evaluation and artificial neural network together for the better performance than doing the tasks separately.

The purpose of the current study is to propose discriminated management strategies for mobile
learning environments after observing the effects of mobile self-efficacy on performance
expectancy and effort expectancy, the social influence on intention of use, and the effects of
facilitating conditions and intention of use on learners' actual use of mobile learning by adding
mobile self-efficacy to the UTAUT model proposed by Venkatesh et al. (2003). We established
hypotheses to determine whether mobile self-efficacy, performance expectancy, effort
expectancy, social influence, and facilitating conditions affect intention of use and whether
intention of use affects actual use. Results showed that when mobile self-efficacy and
performance expectancy is higher, so is the intention of using mobile learning services. It was
confirmed that the factors had significant indirect effects on the actual use by mediating the
intention of use and that the intention of use directly affected actual use. However, the current
research reported that effort expectancy, social influence, and facilitation conditions did not
have significant effects on the intention of using mobile learning services. These results will
contribute substantially to the design of effective mobile learning environments.
Smart application for ams using face recognitioncseij
Attendance Management System (AMS) can be made into smarter way by using face recognition technique, where we use a CCTV camera to be fixed at the entry point of a classroom, which automatically captures the image of the person and checks the observed image with the face database using android enhanced smart phone.
It is typically used for two purposes. Firstly, marking attendance for student by comparing the face images produced recently and secondly, recognition of human who are strange to the environment i.e. an unauthorized person
For verification of image, a newly emerging trend 3D Face Recognition is used which claims to provide more accuracy in matching the image databases and has an ability to recognize a subject at different view angles.
Development of E-learning Software Based Multiplatform ComponentsjournalBEEI
E-learning software is a product of information and communication technology used to help dynamic and flexible learning process between teacher and student. The software technology was first used in the development of e-learning software in the form of web applications. The advantages of this technology because of the ease in the development, installation, and distribution of data. Along with advances in mobile/wireless electronics technology, e-learning software is adapted to this technology known as mobile learning. The ability of this electronic device is the same as a single computer even though it is simpler than a single computer. The problem that arises when e-learning software operates on multiple platforms is that computer programs are made repeatedly depending on the platform being used. This situation will obviously affect the quality of e-learning software. To overcome these problems, in this study developed component-based software that is a modern paradigm for software development that produces reusable software components, high quality, and cost-effective. In software development, software components will be assembled in the software in need. The result of this research is high quality e-learning software based multiplatform component.

A METHOD FOR WEBSITE USABILITY EVALUATION: A COMPARATIVE ANALYSISIJwest
ABSTRACT
Graphical user interfaces design in software development process focuses on maximizing usability and the user's experience, in order to make the interaction for users easy, flexible and efficient. In this paper, we propose an approach for evaluating the usability satisfaction degree of a web-based system. The proposed method has been accomplished in two phases and implemented on an airlines website as a case study. In the first phase, a website usability test is implemented by a number of users, and then the results obtained are translated into charts for a final web-based system evaluation in the second phase. The results achieved
were satisfactory, since the places where the weaknesses and gaps in the website are identified and recommended solutions to avoid them are drawn. The authenticity of the results have been confirmed by comparing them with user opinions acquired from a questionnaire, which proves the precision in which the website is rated.

A METHOD FOR WEBSITE USABILITY EVALUATION: A COMPARATIVE ANALYSISIJwest
ABSTRACT
Graphical user interfaces design in software development process focuses on maximizing usability and the user's experience, in order to make the interaction for users easy, flexible and efficient. In this paper, we propose an approach for evaluating the usability satisfaction degree of a web-based system. The proposed method has been accomplished in two phases and implemented on an airlines website as a case study. In the first phase, a website usability test is implemented by a number of users, and then the results obtained are translated into charts for a final web-based system evaluation in the second phase. The results achieved
were satisfactory, since the places where the weaknesses and gaps in the website are identified and recommended solutions to avoid them are drawn. The authenticity of the results have been confirmed by comparing them with user opinions acquired from a questionnaire, which proves the precision in which the website is rated.

USER EXPERIENCE EVALUATION OF A STUDENT INFORMATION SYSTEMijcsit
Today's academic environment, many students use technology as an integral aspect of their studies; as a
result, higher education (HE) institutions have been compelled to design student information systems (SIS)
that can facilitate students' online learning processes. However, SIS must be aligned with user needs and
should provide a pleasant user experience (UX) that enables students to attain their goals. The current
research looked at how students rated an SIS. The study was based on the responses of 307 students at
Kuwait's College of Business Studies (CBS) provided within a questionnaire. The survey's findings
revealed that students had a generally favourable impression of the SIS, with perceptions of the pragmatic
quality of the system being somewhat higher than the perceptions of hedonic quality. The findings of this
research may be valuable to authorities working to design improved SIS, particularly in terms of the
hedonic system components.
Dashboard settings design in SVARA using user-centred design methodTELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
SVARA is the first Social Media audio application in Indonesia developed by PT. Zamrud Teknologi Khatulistiwa. At present, this application does not have feature settings to display content and other basic settings on the user's side. This situation results in users not having the role to manage the appearance of the dashboard according to their preferences. Settings are done entirely by administrators using scripts and must take APIs with regular PHP scripts. And this is very troublesome. So to give a role to the view of user management, the application needs to be made a dashboard setting feature as a follow-up. Through this paper, the researchers propose designing this dashboard feature using the User-Centered Design (UCD) method. The design results show that this method has a positive correlation with user involvement support in the application development process.
The development of information and communication technology (ICT) during the era of the fourth industrial revolution, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, and the government’s call for large-scale social restrictions have led to the emergence of online learning systems (OLS) in higher education. This study develops a measurement model for the success of OLS based on the DeLone & McLean model. Surveys were conducted on a sample of 175 students from domestic and international universities. Data processing used the partial least squares structural equation modeling or PLS-SEM method, and root cause analysis. The results show that platform quality has a positive influence on OLS success, whether mediated by user satisfaction or OLS usage. Social influence has a positive effect on OLS success, mediated by OLS usage. User computer anxiety has a negative effect on OLS success, mediated by user satisfaction. Recommendations to improve OLS success include adjusting internet package rates to make them more affordable, improving signal strength to various locations for better coverage, limiting the number of users in one learning session for more effective OLS, and the need for organizational support in using the right applications.
A Critical Evaluation of Popular UX Frameworks Relevant to E-Health Appsrinzindorjej
This research paper aims to evaluate the usability, accessibility, and effectiveness of the current User Experience (UX) frameworks relevant to mobile health apps, with a specific focus on the FitBit app. The selected UX frameworks for evaluation include Nielsen Norman Group's 10 Usability Heuristics, Don Norman's Three Levels of Design, and Human-Centered Design. A mixed-method approach, comprising both qualitative and quantitative analyses, was employed to evaluate these frameworks. The FitBit app was assessed based on the selected frameworks, and the obtained results were compared with existing literature and industry standards. The main subject of this study is the critical evaluation of popular UX frameworks in the context of e-health apps, with a specific emphasis on the FitBit app. The evaluation factors considered include usability, accessibility, and effectiveness. By utilizing the selected UX frameworks, the paper seeks to identify the strengths and limitations of each framework in evaluating e- health apps. The achieved results reveal that Nielsen Norman Group's 10 Usability Heuristics are valuable in identifying usability issues within the FitBit app. Don Norman's Three Levels of Design effectively evaluate the overall user experience, providing insights into the app's design quality. Human- Centered Design, on the other hand, offers a comprehensive and holistic approach to designing for the user, encompassing various aspects of the FitBit app. Through this research, a comprehensive understanding of the strengths and limitations of the evaluated UX frameworks in relation to e-health apps, specifically the FitBit app, is attained. The findings contribute to the existing literature on UX evaluation and provide insights for designers and developers to enhance the user experience of mobile health applications.

SOCIO-DEMOGRAPHIC DIFFERENCES IN THE PERCEPTIONS OF LEARNING MANAGEMENT SYSTE...ijseajournal
Learner centred design (LCD) focuses on creating an e-learning system that can fulfil individual needs
through personalization, nevertheless there are still many technical challenges. Besides, losing balanced
focus on both of the learners and the instructors does not help to create a successful e-learning system.
User-centred design helps to improve the usability of a system as it integrates requirements and user
interface designs based on users’ needs. The findings of this research prove that even the users are
provided with the same LMS, not everyone has the same perceptions or tolerance levels of the seven design
factors that may cause frustrations to the users, and not everyone has the same satisfaction level of
navigation experience and interface design. It is important for the LMS developers to understand that the
variations between roles, genders, experiences and ages exist and should not be ignored when designing
the system.
Nowadays, computers and internet are playing the major role in the development of business and different aspects of human lives; hence, the quality of user-computer interface became an important issue. User interface (UI) can become an Achilles heel in a well-functioning system; due to the fact that most users judge the quality of a product by its usability. The UI layout design improves the usability of a product and accordingly may determine its success; so, due to this and more, the need of an objective way of evaluation of UI has arisen. This paper discusses various UI usability evaluation techniques and shows the recent developments in this field.
Generating a Domain Specific Inspection Evaluation Method through an Adaptive...Waqas Tariq
The growth of the Internet and related technologies has enabled the development of a new breed of dynamic websites and applications that are growing rapidly in use and that have had a great impact on many businesses. These websites need to be continuously evaluated and monitored to measure their efficiency and effectiveness, to assess user satisfaction, and ultimately to improve their quality. Nearly all the studies have used Heuristic Evaluation (HE) and User Testing (UT) methodologies, which have become the accepted methods for the usability evaluation of User Interface Design (UID); however, the former is general, and unlikely to encompass all usability attributes for all website domains. The latter is expensive, time consuming and misses consistency problems. To address this need, new evaluation method is developed using traditional evaluations (HE and UT) in novel ways.
The lack of a methodological framework that can be used to generate a domain-specific evaluation method, which can then be used to improve the usability assessment process for a product in any chosen domain, represents a missing area in usability testing. This paper proposes an adapting framework and evaluates it by generating an evaluation method for assessing and improving the usability of a product, called Domain Specific Inspection (DSI), and then analysing it empirically by applying it on the educational domain. Our experiments show that the adaptive framework is able to build a formative and summative evaluation method that provides optimal results with regard to the identification of comprehensive usability problem areas and relevant usability evaluation method (UEM) metrics, with minimum input in terms of the cost and time usually spent on employing UEMs.
Human computer interaction (HCI) is concerned with the practice of usability, which is a measure that
evaluates the simplicity of using a system, software, or interface design for performing particular tasks.
Evaluation is a process by which designers gather information about a systems usability to improve its user
interfaces features. This research presents a study of a usability evaluation of EduGate, an online
academic portal of King Saud University. In this research the heuristic evaluation method was chosen to
evaluate the usability of the EduGate. Our results show that, the EduGate suffers from certain usability
problem and some recommendations were proposed to enhance the usability of the EduGate. A
questionnaire was then used to collect the feedback of real users (i.e. students) on the value of these
recommendations. The participants supported 80% of the proposed recommendations to improve the
usability of the EduGate.

Square transposition: an approach to the transposition process in block cipherjournalBEEI
The transposition process is needed in cryptography to create a diffusion effect on data encryption standard (DES) and advanced encryption standard (AES) algorithms as standard information security algorithms by the National Institute of Standards and Technology. The problem with DES and AES algorithms is that their transposition index values form patterns and do not form random values. This condition will certainly make it easier for a cryptanalyst to look for a relationship between ciphertexts because some processes are predictable. This research designs a transposition algorithm called square transposition. Each process uses square 8 × 8 as a place to insert and retrieve 64-bits. The determination of the pairing of the input scheme and the retrieval scheme that have unequal flow is an important factor in producing a good transposition. The square transposition can generate random and non-pattern indices so that transposition can be done better than DES and AES.
Hyper-parameter optimization of convolutional neural network based on particl...journalBEEI
Deep neural networks have accomplished enormous progress in tackling many problems. More specifically, convolutional neural network (CNN) is a category of deep networks that have been a dominant technique in computer vision tasks. Despite that these deep neural networks are highly effective; the ideal structure is still an issue that needs a lot of investigation. Deep Convolutional Neural Network model is usually designed manually by trials and repeated tests which enormously constrain its application. Many hyper-parameters of the CNN can affect the model performance. These parameters are depth of the network, numbers of convolutional layers, and numbers of kernels with their sizes. Therefore, it may be a huge challenge to design an appropriate CNN model that uses optimized hyper-parameters and reduces the reliance on manual involvement and domain expertise. In this paper, a design architecture method for CNNs is proposed by utilization of particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm to learn the optimal CNN hyper-parameters values. In the experiment, we used Modified National Institute of Standards and Technology (MNIST) database of handwritten digit recognition. The experiments showed that our proposed approach can find an architecture that is competitive to the state-of-the-art models with a testing error of 0.87%.
Supervised machine learning based liver disease prediction approach with LASS...journalBEEI
In this contemporary era, the uses of machine learning techniques are increasing rapidly in the field of medical science for detecting various diseases such as liver disease (LD). Around the globe, a large number of people die because of this deadly disease. By diagnosing the disease in a primary stage, early treatment can be helpful to cure the patient. In this research paper, a method is proposed to diagnose the LD using supervised machine learning classification algorithms, namely logistic regression, decision tree, random forest, AdaBoost, KNN, linear discriminant analysis, gradient boosting and support vector machine (SVM). We also deployed a least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) feature selection technique on our taken dataset to suggest the most highly correlated attributes of LD. The predictions with 10 fold cross-validation (CV) made by the algorithms are tested in terms of accuracy, sensitivity, precision and f1-score values to forecast the disease. It is observed that the decision tree algorithm has the best performance score where accuracy, precision, sensitivity and f1-score values are 94.295%, 92%, 99% and 96% respectively with the inclusion of LASSO. Furthermore, a comparison with recent studies is shown to prove the significance of the proposed system.
A secure and energy saving protocol for wireless sensor networksjournalBEEI
The research domain for wireless sensor networks (WSN) has been extensively conducted due to innovative technologies and research directions that have come up addressing the usability of WSN under various schemes. This domain permits dependable tracking of a diversity of environments for both military and civil applications. The key management mechanism is a primary protocol for keeping the privacy and confidentiality of the data transmitted among different sensor nodes in WSNs. Since node's size is small; they are intrinsically limited by inadequate resources such as battery life-time and memory capacity. The proposed secure and energy saving protocol (SESP) for wireless sensor networks) has a significant impact on the overall network life-time and energy dissipation. To encrypt sent messsages, the SESP uses the public-key cryptography’s concept. It depends on sensor nodes' identities (IDs) to prevent the messages repeated; making security goals- authentication, confidentiality, integrity, availability, and freshness to be achieved. Finally, simulation results show that the proposed approach produced better energy consumption and network life-time compared to LEACH protocol; sensors are dead after 900 rounds in the proposed SESP protocol. While, in the low-energy adaptive clustering hierarchy (LEACH) scheme, the sensors are dead after 750 rounds.
Plant leaf identification system using convolutional neural networkjournalBEEI
This paper proposes a leaf identification system using convolutional neural network (CNN). This proposed system can identify five types of local Malaysia leaf which were acacia, papaya, cherry, mango and rambutan. By using CNN from deep learning, the network is trained from the database that acquired from leaf images captured by mobile phone for image classification. ResNet-50 was the architecture has been used for neural networks image classification and training the network for leaf identification. The recognition of photographs leaves requested several numbers of steps, starting with image pre-processing, feature extraction, plant identification, matching and testing, and finally extracting the results achieved in MATLAB. Testing sets of the system consists of 3 types of images which were white background, and noise added and random background images. Finally, interfaces for the leaf identification system have developed as the end software product using MATLAB app designer. As a result, the accuracy achieved for each training sets on five leaf classes are recorded above 98%, thus recognition process was successfully implemented.

Co-design process was conducted with two activities: 1) need assessment phase using an online survey and interview session with the teachers and 2) the development phase of the LMS. The system was evaluated by 30 teachers from socially disadvantaged schools for relevance to their distance learning activities. We employed computer software usability questionnaire (CSUQ) to measure perceived usability and the technology acceptance model (TAM) with insertion of 3 original variables (i.e., perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, and intention to use) and 5 external variables (i.e., attitude toward the system, perceived interaction, self-efficacy, user interface design, and course design). The average CSUQ rating exceeded 5.0 of 7 point-scale, indicated that teachers agreed that the information quality, interaction quality, and user interface quality were clear and easy to understand. TAM results concluded that the LMS design was judged to be usable, interactive, and well-developed. Teachers reported an effective user interface that allows effective teaching operations and lead to the system adoption in immediate time.

Dynamic learning environment has emerged as a powerful platform in a modern e-learning system. The learning situation that constantly changing has forced the learning platform to adapt and personalize its learning resources for students. Evidence suggested that adaptation and personalization of e-learning systems (APLS) can be achieved by utilizing learner modeling, domain modeling, and instructional modeling. In the literature of APLS, questions have been raised about the role of individual characteristics that are relevant for adaptation. With several options, a new problem has been raised where the attributes of students in APLS often overlap and are not related between studies. Therefore, this study proposed a list of learner model attributes in dynamic learning to support adaptation and personalization. The study was conducted by exploring concepts from the literature selected based on the best criteria. Then, we described the results of important concepts in student modeling and provided definitions and examples of data values that researchers have used. Besides, we also discussed the implementation of the selected learner model in providing adaptation in dynamic learning.

Wireless HART stack using multiprocessor technique with laxity algorithmjournalBEEI
The use of a real-time operating system is required for the demarcation of industrial wireless sensor network (IWSN) stacks (RTOS). In the industrial world, a vast number of sensors are utilised to gather various types of data. The data gathered by the sensors cannot be prioritised ahead of time. Because all of the information is equally essential. As a result, a protocol stack is employed to guarantee that data is acquired and processed fairly. In IWSN, the protocol stack is implemented using RTOS. The data collected from IWSN sensor nodes is processed using non-preemptive scheduling and the protocol stack, and then sent in parallel to the IWSN's central controller. The real-time operating system (RTOS) is a process that occurs between hardware and software. Packets must be sent at a certain time. It's possible that some packets may collide during transmission. We're going to undertake this project to get around this collision. As a prototype, this project is divided into two parts. The first uses RTOS and the LPC2148 as a master node, while the second serves as a standard data collection node to which sensors are attached. Any controller may be used in the second part, depending on the situation. Wireless HART allows two nodes to communicate with each other.
Implementation of double-layer loaded on octagon microstrip yagi antennajournalBEEI
A double-layer loaded on the octagon microstrip yagi antenna (OMYA) at 5.8 GHz industrial, scientific and medical (ISM) Band is investigated in this paper. The double-layer consist of two double positive (DPS) substrates. The OMYA is overlaid with a double-layer configuration were simulated, fabricated and measured. A good agreement was observed between the computed and measured results of the gain for this antenna. According to comparison results, it shows that 2.5 dB improvement of the OMYA gain can be obtained by applying the double-layer on the top of the OMYA. Meanwhile, the bandwidth of the measured OMYA with the double-layer is 14.6%. It indicates that the double-layer can be used to increase the OMYA performance in term of gain and bandwidth.

In this work, a numerical calculation was carried out in one of the universal programs for automatic electro-dynamic design. The calculation is aimed at obtaining numerical values for specific absorbed power (SAR). It is the SAR value that can be used to determine the effect of the antenna of a wireless device on biological objects; the dipole parameters will be selected for GSM1800. Investigation of the influence of distance to a cell phone on radiation shows that absorbed in the head of a person the effect of electromagnetic radiation on the brain decreases by three times this is a very important result the SAR value has decreased by almost three times it is acceptable results.
Exact secure outage probability performance of uplinkdownlink multiple access...journalBEEI
In this paper, we study uplink-downlink non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) systems by considering the secure performance at the physical layer. In the considered system model, the base station acts a relay to allow two users at the left side communicate with two users at the right side. By considering imperfect channel state information (CSI), the secure performance need be studied since an eavesdropper wants to overhear signals processed at the downlink. To provide secure performance metric, we derive exact expressions of secrecy outage probability (SOP) and and evaluating the impacts of main parameters on SOP metric. The important finding is that we can achieve the higher secrecy performance at high signal to noise ratio (SNR). Moreover, the numerical results demonstrate that the SOP tends to a constant at high SNR. Finally, our results show that the power allocation factors, target rates are main factors affecting to the secrecy performance of considered uplink-downlink NOMA systems.
Design of a dual-band antenna for energy harvesting applicationjournalBEEI
This report presents an investigation on how to improve the current dual-band antenna to enhance the better result of the antenna parameters for energy harvesting application. Besides that, to develop a new design and validate the antenna frequencies that will operate at 2.4 GHz and 5.4 GHz. At 5.4 GHz, more data can be transmitted compare to 2.4 GHz. However, 2.4 GHz has long distance of radiation, so it can be used when far away from the antenna module compare to 5 GHz that has short distance in radiation. The development of this project includes the scope of designing and testing of antenna using computer simulation technology (CST) 2018 software and vector network analyzer (VNA) equipment. In the process of designing, fundamental parameters of antenna are being measured and validated, in purpose to identify the better antenna performance.
Transforming data-centric eXtensible markup language into relational database...journalBEEI
eXtensible markup language (XML) appeared internationally as the format for data representation over the web. Yet, most organizations are still utilising relational databases as their database solutions. As such, it is crucial to provide seamless integration via effective transformation between these database infrastructures. In this paper, we propose XML-REG to bridge these two technologies based on node-based and path-based approaches. The node-based approach is good to annotate each positional node uniquely, while the path-based approach provides summarised path information to join the nodes. On top of that, a new range labelling is also proposed to annotate nodes uniquely by ensuring the structural relationships are maintained between nodes. If a new node is to be added to the document, re-labelling is not required as the new label will be assigned to the node via the new proposed labelling scheme. Experimental evaluations indicated that the performance of XML-REG exceeded XMap, XRecursive, XAncestor and Mini-XML concerning storing time, query retrieval time and scalability. This research produces a core framework for XML to relational databases (RDB) mapping, which could be adopted in various industries.

This paper presents the use of the inverse confidential technique on bilateral function with the territorial intensity-based optical flow to prove the effectiveness in noise resistance environment. In general, the image’s motion vector is coded by the technique called optical flow where the sequences of the image are used to determine the motion vector. But, the accuracy rate of the motion vector is reduced when the source of image sequences is interfered by noises. This work proved that the inverse confidential technique on bilateral function can increase the percentage of accuracy in the motion vector determination by the territorial intensity-based optical flow under the noisy environment. We performed the testing with several kinds of non-Gaussian noises at several patterns of standard image sequences by analyzing the result of the motion vector in a form of the error vector magnitude (EVM) and compared it with several noise resistance techniques in territorial intensity-based optical flow method.

An approach of re-organizing input dataset to enhance the quality of emotion ...journalBEEI
The purpose of this paper is to propose an approach of re-organizing input data to recognize emotion based on short signal segments and increase the quality of emotional recognition using physiological signals. MIT's long physiological signal set was divided into two new datasets, with shorter and overlapped segments. Three different classification methods (support vector machine, random forest, and multilayer perceptron) were implemented to identify eight emotional states based on statistical features of each segment in these two datasets. By re-organizing the input dataset, the quality of recognition results was enhanced. The random forest shows the best classification result among three implemented classification methods, with an accuracy of 97.72% for eight emotional states, on the overlapped dataset. This approach shows that, by re-organizing the input dataset, the high accuracy of recognition results can be achieved without the use of EEG and ECG signals.
Parking detection system using background subtraction and HSV color segmentationjournalBEEI
Manual system vehicle parking makes finding vacant parking lots difficult, so it has to check directly to the vacant space. If many people do parking, then the time needed for it is very much or requires many people to handle it. This research develops a real-time parking system to detect parking. The system is designed using the HSV color segmentation method in determining the background image. In addition, the detection process uses the background subtraction method. Applying these two methods requires image preprocessing using several methods such as grayscaling, blurring (low-pass filter). In addition, it is followed by a thresholding and filtering process to get the best image in the detection process. In the process, there is a determination of the ROI to determine the focus area of the object identified as empty parking. The parking detection process produces the best average accuracy of 95.76%. The minimum threshold value of 255 pixels is 0.4. This value is the best value from 33 test data in several criteria, such as the time of capture, composition and color of the vehicle, the shape of the shadow of the object’s environment, and the intensity of light. This parking detection system can be implemented in real-time to determine the position of an empty place.
Quality of service performances of video and voice transmission in universal ...journalBEEI
The universal mobile telecommunications system (UMTS) has distinct benefits in that it supports a wide range of quality of service (QoS) criteria that users require in order to fulfill their requirements. The transmission of video and audio in real-time applications places a high demand on the cellular network, therefore QoS is a major problem in these applications. The ability to provide QoS in the UMTS backbone network necessitates an active QoS mechanism in order to maintain the necessary level of convenience on UMTS networks. For UMTS networks, investigation models for end-to-end QoS, total transmitted and received data, packet loss, and throughput providing techniques are run and assessed and the simulation results are examined. According to the results, appropriate QoS adaption allows for specific voice and video transmission. Finally, by analyzing existing QoS parameters, the QoS performance of 4G/UMTS networks may be improved.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

Hierarchical Digital Twin of a Naval Power SystemKerry Sado
A hierarchical digital twin of a Naval DC power system has been developed and experimentally verified. Similar to other state-of-the-art digital twins, this technology creates a digital replica of the physical system executed in real-time or faster, which can modify hardware controls. However, its advantage stems from distributing computational efforts by utilizing a hierarchical structure composed of lower-level digital twin blocks and a higher-level system digital twin. Each digital twin block is associated with a physical subsystem of the hardware and communicates with a singular system digital twin, which creates a system-level response. By extracting information from each level of the hierarchy, power system controls of the hardware were reconfigured autonomously. This hierarchical digital twin development offers several advantages over other digital twins, particularly in the field of naval power systems. The hierarchical structure allows for greater computational efficiency and scalability while the ability to autonomously reconfigure hardware controls offers increased flexibility and responsiveness. The hierarchical decomposition and models utilized were well aligned with the physical twin, as indicated by the maximum deviations between the developed digital twin hierarchy and the hardware.

1. INTRODUCTION
User Interface is an aggregate of the means by which system users interact with machines, devices,
computer programs, or other tools. UI provides the means: Input, allowing the user to control the system; and
Output, enabling the system to inform users. Blair-Early and Zender [1] meanwhile, user experience (UX) is
a person's perception and response to the use of a product, a system used, or service by providing an
assessment of how satisfied and comfortable using it is. Nikam et al. [2] the basic principle in designing a
UX is that users have the experience that users determine to have the experience to the level of satisfaction
based on satisfaction and comfort in interacting with products, systems, or service. If the UX features
are developing well but there are no end-users who are satisfied and comfortable, the value of UX will be
low [3],[4].
TCSD method is one of the methods used to design UI/UX in accordance with the task needs of
system users through useability testing, so the user interface design becomes better and optimal, and easy to
use. S. Greenberg [5]. TCSD is a process that can be describing as; 1) a concrete description in the form of
the real world, such as doing every task in everyday life [6], 2) Determine the users and assignment in the
system based on the descriptions of the users, 3) designing a prototype of an interface that meets system
requirements, 4) evaluate the interface by performing a task-centered walkthrough [7], [8].
The research object case study is PAUD Kuntum Mekar in the village of Baros Serang Banten. The
problem that exists in PAUD Kuntum Mekar is that the current education system requires communication

between parents and teachers so that it requires informative and easy-to-use media. Beside that, the
researchers designed a UI/UX model for the needs of a web-based integrative holistic PAUD monitoring
information system. This research uses the TCSD method, so the system design developed is followed by
user needs, easy to use, interactive, and informative. The purpose of this study was to provide up-to-date
information about activities at PAUD Kuntum Mekar is information on a balanced nutrition menu,
information on health care, information on child development, and immunization schedules. The scope of
this studied discusses UI/UX design based on user needs tasks through the stages in TCSD. The contribution
of this research is in the form of a integrative holistic UI/UX design to make it easier for every user involved
with the system starting from health monitoring management, PAUD data management, and PAUD
monitoring card management.
2. RESEARCH METHOD
The software development method in this research is to use the TCSD method because it makes it
easier for the author to group the work based on the duties and responsibilities of the user required by the
Integrative Holistic monitoring system for children of early childhood. The stages of the research method in
TCSD can be seen in Figure 1.
Figure 1. The stages of the research method using TCSD
The flow of the integrative holistic UI/UX design starts from the following stages are [9], [10]:
a. The preparation stage, at this stage the identification of problems from the Integrative holistic
monitoring system of children of early childhood is carried out. The problem-solving solution was
created, by determining the scope and objectives of the systems that fit the business process,
b. System user identification stage, at this stage a description of the system is carried out, identifying
system users, defining the scope of the system and describing the potential of the existing system,
c. The system user requirements analysis stage, at this stage, the component specifications for UI/UX are
prepared,
d. Design stage scenario system creation, at this stage the user interface design is carried out according to
user needs and compiles the story board of each UI,
e. The UI search evaluation stage, at this stage, determine who the system user is, assign system user, the
required UI and business process flow as well as UI improvements based on search results.

Sampling testing was carried out on eight users of the system consisting of teachers, parents of
PAUD and health experts. The reason for only assigning eight users to be used as sampling is because the
scope of the project does not involve many users. Nielsen [11], [12] the method used for task testing uses a
Likert scale to assess positive attitudes with positive statements and negated attitudes through negative
statements. A. Joshi et al. [13], the equation of the calculation formula to determine the number of ideal
values obtained from the maximum value multiplied by the number of users can be seen in formula (1).
Ideal value=5 x Many Users (1)
To determine the index value based on the number of respondents' values divided by the total ideal
number of population multiplied by 100%, it can be shown in formula (2).
Index Value=(
total respondent score
ideal Number
) x 100% (2)
While the determination of the average calculation is obtained from the total number of respondents'
values divided by the total number of ideal values multiplied by 100%, it can be seen in formula (3).
Average=(
total number of respondents score
total ideal Number
) x 100% (3)
3. RESULTS AND ANALYSIS
The flow of activities for designing the UI/UX holistic integrative monitoring model for PAUD
using the TCSD method has 4 stages that must be followed, namely [14], [15]; 1) identification scope of use,
2) user centered requirements analysis, 3) design as scenario, and 4) walkthrough evaluate.
3.1. Identification scope of use
User identification focuses on the Kuntum Mekar school where researchers interview the
information needs of each user related to the system and plan the content requirements needed so that the
development of a holistic integrative monitoring system application is in accordance with existing business
processes. This stage also determines the tasks and users involved in running the application. Interviewing
about the tasks of each user involved in the purpose is to see the habits carried out by each user. After
identifying the user there are 3 users where each user has a different task. Details of the tasks required by
system users can be seen in Table 1.
Table 1. System users by task
User Task
PAUD
Teacher
The teacher of PAUD has the task and responsibility of making master data for PAUD children, list of
healthy menus for children of PAUD, monitoring the development of nutrition for children of PAUD,
immunization schedule, monitoring of immunization data for children of PAUD, making health care
schedules for children of PAUD, making monitoring of recording data on children's health development
PAUD and make a schedule of giving vitamins for children PAUD.
Parents PAUD parents can monitor the nutritional development of their children, monitor immunization schedules,
provide vitamins, health care, monitor the results of children's development and health
Health Expert Provide immunization vaccines, check the health of teeth, mouth and nails, provide vitamins and provide a
balanced nutritional menu.
3.2. User centered requirement analysis
Analysis of the needs of system users is carried out through data needs analysis based on direct
observation and interviews [16]-[18] with Kuntum Mekar's PAUD and the parents of the PAUD 's children.
The results of the needs analysis will be used as a reference for making system improvements. There are 3
analysis studies based on needs consisting of:
a. Analysis of information needs, the problem faced by Kuntum Mekar is that the PAUD teacher as the
admin has difficulty making monitoring reports on the activities they have done and PAUD 's parents
often lose information on activities carried out by their children while at school. Based on these
problems, it is necessary to build a UI/UX model design for a web-based application of a holistic
integrative monitoring system for young children so that all users can interact whenever and wherever
they are.
b. Analysis of data storage needs, the problem faced is that the data on young children is never updated
and is often lost, such as data on activity records for young children regarding immunization schedules,
4. ISSN: 2302-9285

2276
healthy nutrition menu schedules, and health care schedules and poorly documented data on monitoring
the health of young children. such as; giving vitamins, examination of teeth, and nails.
c. Technology needs analysis, existing computer aids are still limited to the use of Microsoft office such as
word, excel and ppt which are used as media for making reports so that errors often occur in making
reports. Based on this, it is necessary to make a web-based PAUD children's health monitoring system
application using the application software used are PHP, MySQL, and Laravel Web server using
Xampp (Apache and phpMyAdmin).
3.3. Design as scenario
The system user activity process flow can be designed after the researcher identifies the integrative
holistic activities carried out by PAUD Kuntum Mekar can be seen in Figure 2. The depiction of the process
flow is divided into 3, namely:
a. The process flow of the PAUD teacher's activities as admin
In Figure 2 (a), you can see the flow of the system based on the activities of the PAUD teacher
where the PAUD teacher can manage the holistic integrated monitoring website by accessing the PAUD data
menu, the health monitoring schedule menu, the PAUD monitoring card menu, and the user menu as well as
making reports to the PAUD school principal.
b. Flow of user activity process as parent
The process flow of parents' activities in using the holistic integrative monitoring website application starts
from the registration menu to get a user account, the immunization schedule menu, the balanced nutrition schedule
menu, the health care menu, and the PAUD monitoring report card menu. On the health care menu, there is a
submenu of health checkup schedules and a menu of vitamin administration. Can be seen in Figure 2 (b).
c. Flow of user activity process as a health expert
Health experts have an important role in the development and growth of young children. Therefore
the holistic integrative monitoring application provides facilities for health experts to be able to access the
system through menus, namely; 1) updating immunization data, 2) updating health care data starting from
examining teeth, skin, and nails and updating vitamin data, and 3) updating the menu balanced nutrition.
Digram process flow can be seen in Figure 2 (c).
The relationship between system users can be seen in Figure 2 (d). Where the interaction between
teachers and parents depends on each other in monitoring the health development of young children.
Meanwhile, the involvement of experts is a source of data that will provide immunizations, health checks,
and the provision of a balanced nutrition menu for young children. This research has produced 9 main
scenarios of the activities of the actors involved, namely; 1) managing PAUD master data, 2) making a list of
healthy nutrition menus, 3) nutritional care, 4) immunization schedules, 5) health maintenance schedules, 6)
immunization schedule information, 7) information on development of PAUD, 8) recording of immunization
activities, and 9) recording of health care activities. Hardianto and Karmilasari [8], Silva et al. [19],
Escanillan et al. [20] Scenarios in system design are indispensable in making system applications so that
there is no mistake in coding programs and designing UI/UX according to the needs of system users.
3.3.1. Stroryboard design
The following is an example of making a storyboard for immunization content on a web-based,
holistic integrative monitoring application. Immunization scenarios based on the main tasks produced are five
task scenarios, namely; 1) the task of recording immunizations, 2) the task of recording immunization
schedules, 3) the task of viewing immunization schedule information, 4) the task of immunization activities,
and 5) the task of viewing reports on immunization activities. Admin users (PAUD teachers) can make data
changes for immunization activities, while parents can only view information on the schedule of
immunization activities. All storyboard designs can be seen in Figure 3.
After designing the conceptual model is complete, the next step for the researcher is to test the tasks
that are included in designing the system application to be converted into a test scenario. Previously,
researchers had obtained results from eight users who had been tested in a series of tests, then the users gave
each interaction a score based on the task that had been carried out. In Table 2, you can get the ideal
number=40 from the calculation of the number of tasks multiplied by the number of users according to
formula (1). The value in the amount column is obtained from the total value of potential users per task. The
test results based on the index value refer to the calculation formula (3). In the first task, there were 8 users
with the index value=(30/40)𝑥100%=79%. The calculation results for the second task up to the task five are
the same as the first task.

3.3.2. Mockup design
Based on the storyboard design, a UI/UX mockup design has been made that has been approved by
the system user. Hussain et al. [21] UI design uses the Marvel application tools that can be designed online.
The following UI/UX mockups can be seen starting from Figure 4 (a)-(e). Researchers did a UI redesign after
getting feedback from the user. This design is carried out in order to get optimal results and tailored to user
needs. The following is an image of the UI/UX design after improvements, see Figure 4. The researcher
continues the next testing phase to get the optimal value from the user. It can be seen in Table 3 that the
results of user satisfaction with the model design offered increased to 84.5% from the previous average value.

carried out. Hussain et al. [21] , Klotins [22] all the design results as a scenario at this stage will be coded into
the programming language using the hypertext prepocessor (PHP) script language and my structured query
language (MySQL) database. Furthermore, the design evaluation is carried out whether it is in accordance
with the needs of the task and the needs of the user [23]. All the design results as a scenario at this stage will
be coded into the programming language using the PHP scripting language and the MySQL database.
3.4.2. Usability heuristics
UI design testing uses usability heuristics to be able to observe user activities. Observation of user
activity is carried out directly where the user and the researcher are at the same location at one time. This is
done so that researchers get feedback from every activity undertaken by the user . Usability heuristic has 10
indicator variables that will be used as a tool to measure the UI that is designed. Nielsen [11], Filippi [24]
Farzandipour et al. [25] indicators that are used as variables in the heuristic test can be seen in Table 4.

After the task is made and tested, the overall assessment results of all integrated holistic monitoring
application modules can be seen in Table 5. Based on Table 5, the average value index of the test results is
91%, it is means the users are satisfied with the final achievement. These results also indicate that the user
has understood all the tasks used to design a web-based integrative holistic monitoring application system
[26]-[28].

4. CONCLUSION
The conclusion of this study is that UI/UX design using the TCSD method for web-based
applications can run on an intranet network or the internet. The development of this system is for easy data
availability, easy data update management, user-friendly menus, and reporting. UI/UX design testing uses
satisfaction with test results of 84.5%. This proves that the preparation of the designed tasks has answered
user needs. The usability system test uses a usability heuristic by using ten indicators are used as
measurement variables. The test result was 91%. Based on these conclusions, this study suggests are the
development of mobile app-based applications can be continued so that parents can more easily monitor
every activity carried out by the PAUD school. Besides, applications can be developed integrated with
population data in Baros Serang District, Banten.

User interface (UI)/user experience (UX) is one part of the stages in the
development of the system to produce interactive and attractive web-based
application layouts so that it is easy to understand and use by users. In this
research, a case study was conducted on early childhood in PAUD Kuntum
Mekar. The design of the UI/UX model for holistic integrative PAUD
monitoring becomes one of the solutions to help parents and teachers. The
method used to design UI/UX is the task centered system design (TCSD)
approach starting from the stages; 1) identification scope of use, 2) user
centered requirement analysis, 3) design and scenario, and 4) walkthrough
evaluate, the method used for system testing is user satisfaction, and heuristic
usability. The purpose of this study is the UI/UX design with TCSD can
provide valid data needs of each actor based on the assignment and design of
the story board of the developed system. The results of this research are
UI/UX model design for integrative holistic PAUD monitoring application.

1. INTRODUCTION
User Interface is an aggregate of the means by which system users interact with machines, devices,
computer programs, or other tools. UI provides the means: Input, allowing the user to control the system; and
Output, enabling the system to inform users. Blair-Early and Zender [1] meanwhile, user experience (UX) is
a person's perception and response to the use of a product, a system used, or service by providing an
assessment of how satisfied and comfortable using it is. Nikam et al. [2] the basic principle in designing a
UX is that users have the experience that users determine to have the experience to the level of satisfaction
based on satisfaction and comfort in interacting with products, systems, or service. If the UX features
are developing well but there are no end-users who are satisfied and comfortable, the value of UX will be
low [3],[4].
TCSD method is one of the methods used to design UI/UX in accordance with the task needs of
system users through useability testing, so the user interface design becomes better and optimal, and easy to
use. S. Greenberg [5]. TCSD is a process that can be describing as; 1) a concrete description in the form of
the real world, such as doing every task in everyday life [6], 2) Determine the users and assignment in the
system based on the descriptions of the users, 3) designing a prototype of an interface that meets system
requirements, 4) evaluate the interface by performing a task-centered walkthrough [7], [8].
The research object case study is PAUD Kuntum Mekar in the village of Baros Serang Banten. The
problem that exists in PAUD Kuntum Mekar is that the current education system requires communication](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/583108-210819040542/85/UI-UX-integrated-holistic-monitoring-of-PAUD-using-the-TCSD-method-1-320.jpg)

between parents and teachers so that it requires informative and easy-to-use media. Beside that, the
researchers designed a UI/UX model for the needs of a web-based integrative holistic PAUD monitoring
information system. This research uses the TCSD method, so the system design developed is followed by
user needs, easy to use, interactive, and informative. The purpose of this study was to provide up-to-date
information about activities at PAUD Kuntum Mekar is information on a balanced nutrition menu,
information on health care, information on child development, and immunization schedules. The scope of
this studied discusses UI/UX design based on user needs tasks through the stages in TCSD. The contribution
of this research is in the form of a integrative holistic UI/UX design to make it easier for every user involved
with the system starting from health monitoring management, PAUD data management, and PAUD
monitoring card management.
2. RESEARCH METHOD
The software development method in this research is to use the TCSD method because it makes it
easier for the author to group the work based on the duties and responsibilities of the user required by the
Integrative Holistic monitoring system for children of early childhood. The stages of the research method in
TCSD can be seen in Figure 1.
Figure 1. The stages of the research method using TCSD
The flow of the integrative holistic UI/UX design starts from the following stages are [9], [10]:
a. The preparation stage, at this stage the identification of problems from the Integrative holistic
monitoring system of children of early childhood is carried out. The problem-solving solution was
created, by determining the scope and objectives of the systems that fit the business process,
b. System user identification stage, at this stage a description of the system is carried out, identifying
system users, defining the scope of the system and describing the potential of the existing system,
c. The system user requirements analysis stage, at this stage, the component specifications for UI/UX are
prepared,
d. Design stage scenario system creation, at this stage the user interface design is carried out according to
user needs and compiles the story board of each UI,
e. The UI search evaluation stage, at this stage, determine who the system user is, assign system user, the
required UI and business process flow as well as UI improvements based on search results.](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
