Towards merging internet of things (IoT) and big data technologies to benefit wider applications
Abstract

The development of Internet of Things (IoT) makes the life of human being very smooth and easier. IoT provides a tool to control electronic devices in a bit. IoT is actually the network of devices that contain sensors, electronics, softwares, actuators, and connectivity which allows these things to connect, interact and exchange data among each other. IoT made easier to control the devices, collect the information from such devices, manage such information and transfer this information to analyze the same and to predict or prescribe the solution for the problems might exist. Big data image came from the huge quantity of collected data from IoT devices through the sensors. It is not just that there is the only interdependent relation between big data and IoT. As they help each other, in addition to that they hugely impact each other. The fact is, the more the IoT grows it will place more demand on businesses of big data. For example, as the IoT generated data is increasing at a huge rate, conventional data storage technology is already being pushed to its limits. As a result, it demands more advanced and innovative storage solutions to handle these growing workloads resulting in updating the infrastructure of an organization’s big data storage. Similarly, the IoT big data combined applications accelerate the scope of research in both the fields. So, IoT and big data both the technologies carry interdependency and need further development.

Abstract

Artificial intelligence methods are one of the technologies that have entered the health field and its uses have increased rapidly in recent years, especially in the management and diagnosis of heart diseases due to the good results it achieved. In fact, diagnostic methods with the help of artificial intelligence techniques based on predictive models are powerful methods because they provide appropriate and objective diagnoses. Thus, it can reduce the suffering of patients. Now, artificial intelligence techniques are more important than ever due to the spread of the epidemic, pandemics, and the efforts of countries around the world to take advantage of modern technologies to confront pandemics. This systematic review aimed at knowing the role of artificial intelligence methods in diagnosing heart disease, by surveying and critiquing a number of studies that dealt with this topic in terms of importance, purpose, methodology, findings and weaknesses. A critical survey approach was used for previous studies in this field. The study revealed the seriousness of heart disease as being one of the main causes of death. Moreover, studies agreed on the role of artificial intelligence and machine learning methods and their great potential in diagnosing heart disease. Likewise, programs and systems have been developed to assist in diagnostic processes, and some of them used recognized systems to help diagnose diseases. All technologies have proven effective even if some of them face some obstacles, whether in the mechanism of action or in terms of organizational, legal and cultural perspectives. Many studies call for the importance of using these technologies and developing them to expand their functions in the future, to be a major factor in the field. This study recommends creating repositories and databases for all data related to heart patients, due to its importance in supporting the diagnosis of heart disease, especially when using artificial intelligence techniques. The study also recommends extensive systematic reviews of studies that have examined the use of artificial intelligence in diagnosing heart disease.

Problem solution strategy for peatland rehabilitation
Abstract

Currently, assessments of carbon dioxide emissions produced by rehabilitated plants and planted areas are rarely carried out, especially as a consideration in the implementation of peatland rehabilitation. In addition to measuring subsidence and peat hydrology studies, one method for assessing the condition of peatlands is by measuring carbon dioxide emissions. The success of peatland rehabilitation is indicated by the percentage of life and the rate of plant growth. Peat soils with different thicknesses produce different conditions and characteristics of peat soil so that the resulting plant growth rate can vary. Therefore, rehabilitation activities must be supported by efforts to prepare quality plant seedlings to have better adaptability and environmental manipulation techniques created by studying environmental conditions including evaluation of planting results and previous rehabilitation efforts. Therefore, this paper specifically describes the strategy for solving the problem of peatland rehabilitation.

Balangeran plant (Shorea balangeran) to capture carbon dioxide emissions from peatlands
Abstract

Greenhouse gases are released from peatlands in the form of CO2, CH4, and N2O. Of the three gases, CO2 is the most important GHG because of its relatively large amount, especially from peatland which has changed its function from forest to agricultural land and settlements. Long drought results in a decrease in the water table, which in turn can accelerate CO2 emissions from peat soils. Rehabilitation of peat areas is aimed at restoring degraded peat area resources so that they function optimally in providing ecological, economic and social benefits to all interested parties, managing water resources, and developing institutions based on peat area resources. This rehabilitation action is related to planting activities aimed at restoring land cover so that the function of the peat ecosystem can recover to normal. The Balangeran plant is proposed as peat revegetation to utilize carbon dioxide emitted by the land to become biomass which is useful for various living needs.

Overview of reclamation optimization in coal mining business in Kapuas of Central Kalimantan
Abstract

The obligation of mining companies from production operations activities is the reclamation of ex-mining land. Backfilling of ex-mining land, spreading root zones, controlling erosion and revegetation are the criteria for the success of ex-mining land reclamation. In practice, it often happens that the success of ex-mining land reclamation is not optimal. Evaluation needs to be carried out for the success criteria for reclamation, especially monitoring. It is monitoring to fulfill the criteria for the success of reclamation. The goal is to optimize the success of reclamation in the coal mining business.

Paludiculture productivity in the management of the Kahayan-Sebangau hydrological unit of Central Kalimantan
Abstract

Planting on peatland revegetation through paludiculture practices is often programmed by the government, private sector, and research institutions to function for productivity with agroforestry with the principle of economic value and conservation for the surrounding community on peatlands. The principle of paludiculture is that plant cultivation by selecting native and peat-adaptive swamp species with economic value contribute to the production of biomass in the formation of peat in the long term. The practice of paludiculture has positive implications for the sustainability of peatlands, because it can control forest and land fires. It requires rewetting that causes the condition of the peatlands to remain wet and moist so that unburned peat also reduces the release of greenhouse gases, thus having implications for climate change mitigation efforts.
