ation results and the distribution of Graduation Certificates (Surat Keterangan Lulus/SKL), which makes the delivery of information relatively inefficient. This study aims to build a web-based Student Graduation Information System for vocational high schools (SMK) that simplifies graduation-data management for school administrators and gives students online access to their graduation information. The system was built using the Waterfall method, covering requirements analysis, design, implementation, testing, and maintenance, and was implemented with the Laravel framework, the PHP programming language, a MySQL database, and a Bootstrap interface. It serves two types of users: administrators, who manage graduation data, and students, who can check their graduation status without logging in by entering their National Student Identification Number (NISN). Students who pass can download their SKL directly in PDF format. The system was evaluated through Black Box Testing and the System Usability Scale (SUS). Testing showed that every system function operated as intended, while the usability evaluation returned an average SUS score of 84.5, placing it in the Excellent (Grade A) category. Overall, the system improves the efficiency of school administration, speeds up the delivery of graduation information, and supports the broader digitalization of educational services.
Abstract:The reliability of data packet transmission within the deployed Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) security protocol is highly crucial to ensure user data confidentiality. This study aims to analyze the security implementation…
tation of the WPA2-Personal protocol-based WLAN through direct observation of data packet traffic. A qualitative-descriptive research method was applied by conducting packet capturing using the Wireshark application on a small-scale test network utilizing a smartphone as an access point and a laptop as a client. The results demonstrate that all local and internet data communication activities operated stably and were recorded consistently. Packet analysis successfully identified various major protocols, including ARP, DNS, TCP, UDP, TLS, and HTTPS. The implementation of TLS encryption on HTTPS traffic proved capable of protecting the confidentiality of application data content, preventing it from being read in plaintext even though the packets were successfully captured. This study concludes that the combination of WPA2-Personal authentication and the HTTPS communication protocol still provides adequate security protection and remains highly viable for small-scale wireless network environments.

dan pemasaran digital melalui WhatsApp terhadap keputusan pembelian pada Pabrik Tahu di Desa Sumber Ketempa, Kecamatan Kalisat. Pendekatan kuantitatif dengan desain asosiatif digunakan, melibatkan 96 responden yang dipilih secara purposive dari populasi 150 konsumen aktif. Data dikumpulkan melalui kuesioner berskala Likert 1-5 dan dianalisis menggunakan regresi linier berganda dengan SPSS 26. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa inovasi produk berpengaruh positif dan signifikan terhadap keputusan pembelian (t-hitung 5,542 > t-tabel 1,986; signifikansi 0,000), pemasaran digital melalui WhatsApp juga berpengaruh positif dan signifikan (t-hitung 3,381 > t-tabel 1,986; signifikansi 0,001), dan secara simultan kedua variabel menjelaskan 76,7% variasi keputusan pembelian (R²=0,767; F-hitung 151,386 > F-tabel 3,09). Temuan ini menegaskan bahwa inovasi produk dan pemanfaatan WhatsApp sebagai kanal pemasaran digital merupakan strategi komplementer yang efektif bagi UMKM pangan tradisional di pedesaan Indonesia. Penelitian ini merekomendasikan optimalisasi fitur WhatsApp (daftar siaran, katalog produk, dan grup pelanggan) serta pengembangan produk secara berkelanjutan untuk meningkatkan daya saing.
The digital revolution has fundamentally transformed consumer behavior even in remote rural areas, carrying profound implications for Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs), particularly traditional food producers. This study aims to examine the influence of product innovation and digital marketing through WhatsApp on purchasing decisions at the Tofu Factory in Sumber Ketempa Village, Kalisat District. A quantitative approach with an associative design was employed, involving 96 respondents purposively selected from a population of 150 active consumers. Data were collected through Likert-scale questionnaires (1-5) and analyzed using multiple linear regression with SPSS 26. The results show that product innovation has a positive and significant effect on purchasing decisions (t-count 5.542 > t-table 1.986; significance 0.000), digital marketing through WhatsApp also has a positive and significant effect (t-count 3.381 > t-table 1.986; significance 0.001), and simultaneously both variables explain 76.7% of the variation in purchasing decisions (R²=0.767; F-count 151.386 > F-table 3.09). These findings confirm that product innovation and the utilization of WhatsApp as a digital marketing channel are complementary strategies effective for traditional food MSMEs in rural Indonesia. This research recommends optimizing WhatsApp features (broadcast lists, product catalogs, and customer groups) and continuous product development to enhance competitiveness.
Abstract:Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis strategi pengembangan pasar yang diterapkan dalam mengatasi stagnasi kunjungan wisatawan (di bawah 50.000 pengunjung per tahun) akibat kejenuhan pasar pada objek wisata religi…
Patung Yesus Buntu Burake di Tana Toraja. Industri pariwisata religi di Indonesia memiliki potensi besar, namun banyak destinasi menghadapi tantangan dalam mempertahankan dan meningkatkan jumlah kunjungan akibat persaingan yang semakin ketat dan perubahan perilaku konsumen. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif deskriptif dengan teknik pengumpulan data melalui wawancara mendalam, observasi langsung, dan dokumentasi. Informan penelitian terdiri atas pengelola objek wisata (Dinas Pariwisata) dan wisatawan yang dipilih secara purposive. Analisis data menggunakan model interaktif Miles dan Huberman yang meliputi reduksi data, penyajian data, dan penarikan kesimpulan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa strategi pengembangan pasar saat ini masih berada pada fase transisi dan belum berjalan secara optimal. Promosi destinasi masih sangat didominasi oleh konten organik (word-of-mouth digital) yang diunggah secara sukarela oleh pengunjung melalui media sosial visual seperti TikTok dan Instagram, sedangkan iklan resmi berbayar dan kemitraan strategis dengan biro perjalanan berskala besar masih sangat minim. Selain itu, ditemukan adanya kesenjangan antara daya tarik utama objek wisata yang dinilai sangat memuaskan dengan kualitas infrastruktur layanan pendukung yang masih memerlukan standardisasi, meliputi aksesibilitas jalan, kebersihan toilet, keterbatasan tempat sampah, serta minimnya fasilitas ramah muslim (muslim-friendly) khususnya kepastian kuliner halal. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa strategi pengembangan pasar memerlukan peralihan pendekatan dari promosi pasif menjadi pemasaran digital berbayar yang terstruktur, perluasan segmen pasar geografis dan demografis, serta peningkatan kualitas fasilitas operasional demi menciptakan kepuasan pengunjung yang berkelanjutan.
This study aims to analyze the market development strategy implemented to overcome the stagnation of tourist visits (under 50,000 visitors per year) caused by market saturation at the religious tourism object of the Jesus Statue Buntu Burake in Tana Toraja. The religious tourism industry in Indonesia has great potential, yet many destinations face challenges in maintaining and increasing visitor numbers due to increasingly intense competition and changing consumer behavior. This research employs a qualitative descriptive approach with data collection techniques through in-depth interviews, direct observation, and documentation. Research informants consisted of tourism site managers (Tourism Office) and tourists selected purposively. Data analysis used the interactive model of Miles and Huberman, including data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The results indicate that the current market development strategy is still in a transitional phase and has not operated optimally. Destination promotion is still heavily dominated by organic content (digital word-of-mouth) voluntarily uploaded by visitors on visual social media platforms such as TikTok and Instagram, while official paid advertisements and strategic partnerships with large-scale travel agencies remain highly limited. Furthermore, the study identifies a gap between the core attraction, which is rated highly satisfying, and the quality of supporting service infrastructure that still requires standardization, including road accessibility, toilet cleanliness, availability of trash bins, and the lack of Muslim-friendly facilities, particularly the certainty of halal culinary options. This study concludes that the market development strategy requires shifting from a passive promotion approach to a structured paid digital marketing campaign, expanding geographical and demographic market segments, and upgrading operational facilities to create sustainable visitor satisfaction.

Abstract:Level design is one of the key components in determining the gameplay experience in 2D platformer games. However, manual level design is time-consuming and difficult to scale. Graph theory can be used to represent the abstract…
stract structure of a level, with nodes as spatial units and edges as paths connecting those spaces. The problem is that this graph structure cannot always be directly translated into a valid and playable physical layout due to platformer constraints, such as jump height, safe distance, and gravity. This research proposes a chunk-based transformation approach, in which each graph node is represented as a fixed-size level chunk containing a platform layout, obstacles, and entry and exit points. The transformation of the graph into a physical level is carried out through the selection, arrangement, and alignment of chunks based on the graph’s topology. This study aims to design a framework for transforming an abstract graph G=(V,E) into a chunk-based 2D platformer level layout. The method used is qualitative-descriptive, involving the formulation of a graph model, rules for mapping and arranging chunks, and playability criteria. The results of the study reveal three main stages: mapping vertices to corresponding chunks, arranging chunks according to the graph’s structure, and validating reachability using an automatic path-finding agent.

al leadership, learning agility, and employee engagement on employee performance. A quantitative approach with a cross-sectional survey design was employed. Data were collected from 250 employees using a structured questionnaire measured on a five-point Likert scale. The data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) to evaluate the measurement and structural models. The results demonstrate that digital leadership has a positive and significant effect on employee performance (β = 0.247; t = 4.218; p < 0.001). Learning agility also has a positive and significant effect on employee performance (β = 0.286; t = 5.037; p < 0.001). Furthermore, employee engagement has the strongest positive and significant effect on employee performance (β = 0.411; t = 7.126; p < 0.001). The model explains 68.4% of the variance in employee performance, indicating substantial explanatory power. These findings highlight the importance of integrating digitally capable leadership, continuous employee learning, and strong employee engagement to improve performance in an increasingly dynamic and technology-driven work environment. The study contributes to the understanding of how organizational and individual factors jointly support employee performance in the digital era

inant factor influencing audit quality. The study employed a quantitative approach using a survey method. The research population consisted of all auditors at the South Sulawesi Provincial Inspectorate. A saturated sampling technique was applied, resulting in 53 respondents whose questionnaires were successfully collected and met the research criteria. Data were collected through questionnaires using a Likert scale and analyzed using multiple linear regression. The results indicate that professionalism, independence, and work motivation simultaneously have a positive and significant effect on audit quality. This finding is supported by an F-value of 25.053 with a significance level of 0.001 and an adjusted R-squared value of 0.581, indicating that the three variables explain 58.1% of the variation in audit quality. Partially, professionalism has a positive and significant effect on audit quality, as indicated by a t-value of 2.983 and a significance level of 0.004. Work motivation also has a positive and significant effect on audit quality, with a t-value of 2.910 and a significance level of 0.005. In contrast, independence does not have a significant effect on audit quality, as reflected by a t-value of 1.184 and a significance level of 0.242. Among the examined variables, professionalism has the strongest influence on audit quality, followed by work motivation and independence. These findings suggest that strengthening auditors’ professionalism and work motivation is essential for improving audit quality within the South Sulawesi Provincial Inspectorate.
