Fire behavior on a 2 ha fire, inferred from physical evidence observed one week after the fire, was compared with fire behavior estimates obtained using the BEHAVE fire behavior prediction system and fuel measurements in Imperata cylindrica (Alang-alang) made in the same area. This fire probably burned under light winds (3-5 km), high relative humidity, and spread slowly with moderate flame lengths (approximately 100 m hr-1 spread rate, 0.5 - 0.7 m flame lengths). Although appar- ently killed by lethal crown and bole scorch, the young Acacia mangium overstory through which the fire burned resprouted vigorously and apparently survived.
Fire is an important factor in the Imperata grassland ecosystem. It prevents or slows down the natural succession to shrubs and/or secondary forest vegetation and is a major threat to (agro)forestry options for Imperata grassland rehabilitation. Forest fires can also be a primary cause of the extension of Imperata grasslands. In this review an attempt is made to integrate biophysical and socioeconomic aspects of the causation of fires in a conceptual model. Fire effects on vegetation are examined. The management options at the level of a farmer, a village community and a national government are analyzed.
Refining DeLone and McLean's (D&M) information system model and technology-organisationenvironment (TOE) framework, this research identifies the prominent factors that determine ERP system success. Hypotheses are also drawn based on supporting theories to evaluate the causal relationship between the success determinants. The level of achievement is measured by system quality, information quality, service quality, external quality and top management support, which intermediated by perceived usefulness and user satisfaction towards business benefits. To provide empirical evidence, 86 valid samples out of 156 were collected using a web survey that targeted ERP users in Indonesia. Furthermore, Partial Least Squares-Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM) algorithm were applied to check the proposed hypotheses. The results suggest system quality, information quality and service quality significantly affect user satisfaction, whereas they moderately impact on perceived usefulness. Interestingly, external pressures were reported as being the biggest influence on user satisfaction and positively impacted on perceived usefulness. Despite being fairly predictive to perceived usefulness, top management support along with general perceptual factors ultimately promote system success by elevating business benefits.
Teknologi informasi dan pemrosesan data menggunakan komputer adalah yang paling banyak digunakan dalam suatu proyek. Untuk itu dibutuhkan karyawan yang sudah siap dan dapat menerima teknologi. Ketidak kesiapan dan tidak menerima teknologi, akan berdampak pada kinerja proyek. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis tingkat kesiapan teknologi dan tingkat penerimaan teknologi karyawan pada proyek dengan menerapkan model TRAM. Data penelitian diambil menggunakan kuesioner, dengan responden adalah karyawan proyek yang menggunakan teknologi informasi dan pemrosesan data komputer di PT. DENKI, sebanyak 100 responden. Pengolahan data menggunakan analisis jalur. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Optimisme berpengaruh positif dan siknifikan terhadap persepsi kemudahan penggunaan dan persepsi kegunaan. Keinovasian berpengaruh positif dan siknifikan terhadap persepsi kemudahan penggunaan. Ketidakamanan berpengaruh negatif dan siknifikan terhadap persepsi kemudahan penggunaan. Persepsi kemudahan penggunaan berpengaruh positif dan siknifikan terhadap persepsi kegunaan. Berdasarkan hasil tersebut, perusahaan harus merencanakan strategi pengembangan karyawan, dalam rangka meningkatkan kesiapan teknologi dan penerimaan teknologi karyawan, sehingga operasi manajemen proyek akan lebih baik.
