One of the poor indicators of the development and health status of a country is high maternal mortality. The world has seen that one pregnant woman in every two minutes dies because of complication with serious or long-lasting consequences. During pregnancy, pregnant women tend to reduce physical activity due to increased sensitivity factors. It will lead to decrease the elasticity of muscles and joints. The way to improve the elasticity is doing exercise during pregnancy. But, there are still many pregnant women who are less interested in doing exercise during pregnancy, due to high loaded in working day and dense schedule of daily activities in her career or as a housewife. Some women assume that by attending pregnancy exercise course in hospitals or health care centers is time-consuming and too formal because they have to follow the prenatal personal trainer schedule. The technology that allows helping pregnant women in exercise during pregnancy is virtual reality. In this study, the development of virtual reality application for exercise during pregnancy adapted from the methodology to determine when to use virtual reality in education and training combined with the Immersive Virtual Environment (IVE) questionnaire. The average results of overall components in the IVE questionnaire is 4.26 of 5-point scales that indicates the virtual reality application for exercise during pregnancy is feasible to use by pregnant woman.

Meningkatnya potensi pasar pangan organik yang diikuti dengan pertumbuhan pasar organik di Indonesia, menyebabkan persaingan yang sangat tinggi antar para pelaku usaha pangan organik. Oleh karena itu, diperlukan suatu pengembangan strategi rantai pasok, agar dapat tercipta keunggulan kompetitif bagi UKM. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah Interpretive Structural Modelling (ISM), untuk membangun keterkaitan antar variabel rantai pasokan. Penelitian ini telah berhasil mengidentifikasi delapan variabel yang menjadi kunci sukses daya saing rantai pasok UKM Mina Indo Sejahtera. Model ISM tersebut menunjukkan bahwa variabel yang berpengaruh paling signifikan adalah penentuan jumlah dan lokasi reseller sesuai potensi market. Sedangkan yang menduduki level puncak model ISM dan harus menjadi fokus perhatian bagi manajemen UKM, yaitu keterlibatan reseller dalam memaksimalkan pemasaran digital serta koordinasi dan komunikasi yang efektif diantara mitra rantai pasokan. Model ISM yang dihasilkan dapat menjadi panduan bagi pemilik UKM untuk memutuskan strategi yang harus digunakan untuk memaksimalkan pencapaian pada variabel terpenting.
Fish Production Center "Asap Indah" is one of the production centers in Demak, which specializes in processing fresh fish into semi-processed products, smoked fish. To support the sustainability of product distribution, supply chain management is needed to oversee the process from procurement of raw material to distribution to final consumers. Therefore, a comprehensive supply chain management analysis is necessary to increase sales and establish effective distribution channels. This research aims to understand the existing value chains of smoked manyung fish, the added value of each contributor on value chains, and to determine the most effective distribution channels of smoked manyung fish. The method used for data processing is descriptive-analytic SCM, Value Chain, and Value Added method. The result of this research, based on value-added calculation analysis using the Hayami method, shows fresh fish wholesalers give the least added value to the product or have the least amount of activities, so decreasing the unproductive activity to lower production cost is recommended. Value chain analysis shows that distribution channels or the most effective selling method of smoked fish are direct selling to the final consumer, accompanied by developing vacuum packaging to increase consumers' interest in the product.
Batik is one of the Indonesian heritage culture that needs to be preserved, especially for traditional batik using wax to form batik pattern and resist dyeing color. One way to draw batik on fabric is by using a stamp. Nowadays, most of traditional batiks are still produced manually with limited capacity. On other hand, the number of batik craftsman is decreased due to lack of regeneration of young craftsman. This study aimed to develop software for designing stamped batik, along with its production steps, and information used to execute the design on batik machine with moving module. The software required a batik stamp design, size of fabric (maximum 12 m), pattern of stamping, and color. Digital image of the batik design and its colour will be generate along with the G-Code for executing the design on batik machine with moving module. Batik machine with moving module consists of 13 meters working table and a bridge runs along the table by carrying stamp and wax module. For each step of the bridge, stamp module will stamp wax on fabric along its width. These movements are controlled by programmable computer with G-Code from batik design system. Batik design system and the machine have been tested and is able to give information about size of fabric used, kind of dye used, and G-Code for controlling the machine.
