Location-based service (LBS) is an application that can be used to show the location of a place so that it is easier for users to find their destination. The existence of the Android operating system, which is known as an open operating system, helps developers in creating applications that can be implemented on the Android operating system. The implementation of LBS at tourist locations in Jeneponto Regency is to make it easier for people to find tourist locations. Based on this, research was carried out on the design of the LBS application as a promotional media for the Jeneponto district. This research is a type of applied research, where researchers use the GRAPPLE (Gudline for Rapid Application Engineering) method, where in this method each research step is carried out sequentially, starting from the stages of data collection, planning, design, writing program code, and testing. Features used on Android devices include the Global Positioning System (GPS), which are supported by the Google Maps API. The test results in this research show that LBS can be used to search for tourist locations in Jeneponto Regency, so that it can become a medium for information on tourist locations.

Technology in education has evolved and accelerated the process of learning. However, even though there have been several applications to study English in general, there is none of it specialized for the students of polytechnic who study graphic design. This study aims to create one such application focusing on the English for English business in graphic design. Android-based application for education should be packaged in an attractive, efficient, effective, and simple way. Thus, an application called “Virtual English for Professional Graphic Designer (VirProGD)” for digital English learning using Android results from this study. The method this research implements is research and development by designing prototypes of the Virtual English for Professional Graphic Designer (VirProGD) application. From this research, an application is obtained that facilitates graphic design students to learn English which focuses on material related to the world of work, design, and business. The final application was validated by three experts and then demonstrated and used by the 5th semester graphic design students at the Polimedia campus. After using the application, validators and students gave their feedback. It was noticed that most of them found this application to be beneficial and attractive.

A weed plant can be described as a plant that is unwanted at a specific location at a given time. Farmers have fought against the weed populations for as long as land has been used for food production. In conventional agriculture this weed control contributes a considerable amount to the overall cost of the produce. Automatic weed detection is one of the viable solutions for efficient reduction or exclusion of chemicals in crop production. Research studies have been focusing and combining modern approaches and proposed techniques which automatically analyze and evaluate segmented weed images. This study discusses and compares the weed control methods and gives special attention in describing the current research in automating the weed detection and control.

One of the most decisive factors for a smooth and stable operation of an DC / AC converter connected to the power grid are the gains used in the current controllers. This paper proposes the use of the Cuckoo Search optimization algorithm via Lévy Flights to facilitate the determination of the optimal gains of the grid connected DC/ AC converters. With the proposed algorithm, it becomes possible to determine the optimal gains of the current controllers of the DC / AC converters connected with the grid thus improving their stability, accuracy and response time.

Architectural and urban projects in the countries of Eastern Europe after WWII were subordinated to political ideology, but also to the means of its implementation. The ideology of the communist party was realized through new forms of architecture and urban planning implemented in many war-ravaged and newly-built cities. This new, ideological architecture style was called socialist realism. The buildings of that period was to show the superiority of the new communist architecture over the modernist realizations of the interwar period. In many buildings, architectural solutions implemented were based on palace patterns, also numerous decorative elements, typical of Classicist architecture, were applied, enriched with themes of national architecture style. The urban systems created monumental spatial arrangements, often connected with industrial plants - steelworks, factories. The article will present chosen examples of housing estates complexes realized in socialist realism period in Poland (1949 - 1956).

Electrochemical remediation is an innovative technique that utilizes electro-oxidation reactions to degrade micropollutants such as doxorubicin (DOX) that is a drug widely used to treat many types of cancer, and it is present in hospital effluents. The aim of this work is to evaluate the efficiency of active and non-active electrodes in DOX degradation during electrochemical treatments. AuO-TiO2@graphite, a nanostructured electrode, and BDD, a commercial electrode, were used as active and non-active electrodes respectively. DOX treatments were realized at concentration of 1.25 mmol L-1 in medium with 10 mmol L-1 NaCl as support electrolyte. Studies were realized in 5 V of voltage source. Results: The treatment of DOX with BDD promoted 100% of DOX degradation in 20 min, while the same result was obtained for the AuO-TiO2@graphite in 40 min of treatment. Also, the modified electrode presented an energy expenditure of 1.12 kWh m-3 and the BDD achieved 0.462 kWh m-3. Thus, the active and non-active electrodes were efficient to promote DOX degradation, and the BDD, the non-active electrode demonstrated a better performance.

The aim of paper is a presentation an idea of shared space in the cities and results of implementation of this solution in the cities of Poland. The methodology of elaboration consisted of carrying out a review of the literature, comparing existing solutions and formulating conclusions regarding implementation. This trend, which has appeared over the past 50 years as a counterbalance to the pedestrianization of public spaces, is at the beginning of the 21st century experiencing its second youth and is being implemented in many areas in intensive urban development, especially in urban centers and areas of historic character. Shared space solutions are an integral way of shaping functions and forms of revitalized public spaces. These solutions contributes to improving the quality of public space and traffic safety, revitalizing social life, improving and reducing the environmental nuisance caused by traffic and finally created liveable city. Analyzes effectuated indicate, that in central areas of cities in Poland whose spatial arrangement is legally protected, the forms of shared spaces solutions are strongly influenced by strong conservation restrictions in these areas. This means the need to respect existing historical conditions in shaping public spaces, as well as limited transformation possibilities. The Polish solutions of shared spaces presented in this paper of in their forms and quality do not differ from the standard functional solutions abroad. Solutions implemented in the Polish conditions, however, are more modest in terms of materials and implemented in a smaller number than is the case in Western European countries.
