Zakat is the pivot approach in Islamic teachings to encounter social problem such as poverty in society by sharing the percentage of wealth to relevant recipients as the obligation to the person who affordable. The collaborative research conducted by Badan Amil Zakat Nasional (BAZNAS) and Institut Pertanian Bogor (IPB) estimated the potential of zakat collection in Indonesia could reach about Rp 217 trillion every year that has not been achieved yet. This study attempts to investigate the problem and challenge occurred in adopting knowledge management system based on KMSLC with addressing Indonesia issues. The purpose of the study is to discover conventional approach within zakat staff’s institution and at the same time provide the other suggestion especially in KM in order to improve their task by the fastest and the smartest way. Since this paper is exploratory research to develop framework, thus it utilizes qualitative method as it employs empirical support within historical background and interview. Read More Read Less

Abstract One of the biggest challenges for adopting IT at the time government use the new technologies and determine the standard for directive and management measure.

One of the biggest challenges for adopting IT at the time government use the new technologies and determine the standard for directive and management measure. Actually, it is closely related to the level readiness of electronic adoption in particular culture of unit or division. In this study, a model have been designed for ICT adoption in term of assessing the e- Government Readiness by using 7 enterprise enablers of COBIT 5, which is performed to a case study in the provincial government, focused in the Bandung districts. They are involving principles and policies, business processes, organizational structure, culture, ethics and attitudes, information, application and infrastructure services, skills and competencies of Human Resources. Meanwhile, research methodology is carried out through phases namely interviews, observation and questionnaires to collect the essential data, while the analysis through a quantitative approach presented that there is no significant effect on the services, infrastructure and applications towards ICT adoption. Hopefully, this model will support the provincial government of Bandung to assess the ICT adoption, even understand the factor related to the process. Read More Read Less

Abstract Process-based modeling (PBM) is an equation discovery approach for automated modeling of dynamical systems, which takes at input substantial expert knowledge and measured data of the observed system. The resulting processbased models offer both high-level representation (in terms of building blocks / model components, i.e., entities and processes) and low-level representation (a set of ordinary differential equations). ProBMoT, a software platform for modeling,... Process-based modeling (PBM) is an equation discovery approach for automated modeling of dynamical systems, which takes at input substantial expert knowledge and measured data of the observed system. The resulting processbased models offer both high-level representation (in terms of building blocks / model components, i.e., entities and processes) and low-level representation (a set of ordinary differential equations). ProBMoT, a software platform for modeling, parameter estimation, and simulation of process-based models, is the latest implementation of the process-based modeling approach. While ProBMoT has been successfully applied to the task of modeling dynamical systems, compared to other modeling and simulation software, it is substantially behind in terms of user-friendliness. The goal of the present work is to overcome this limitation of ProBMoT. We design and implement an extension of ProBMoT, named ProBMoTViz, which is a platform consisting of a GUI (Graphical User Interface) for ProBMoT and a PBM Visualizer for process based models. We evaluate the versatility of ProBMoTViz on example case studies. Read More Read Less
