Indonesia as an emerging country has a lot of traffic bottleneck challenges on urban road networks including in Banda Aceh, the capital of Aceh province. It is due to high traffic demand and limited supply of roadway. Consequently, traffic congestion leads to several externalities such as unnecessary travel times, air pollution, energy consumption, and driver frustration. An unsystematic bottleneck defines as a bottleneck that is without any changes in roadway geometric, and sometimes refers to hidden or virtual bottlenecks. Therefore, I wrote a basic traffic engineering book emphasizing the dynamic capacity method with application on virtual bottlenecks assessments. This book is aimed at un...
The vast enterprise known as ‘Astra’ has now entered its sixth decade. From the earnest and precise efforts of a young William Soeryadjaya to capture business opportunities, Astra has incredibly developed into a Company that deserves to be known as a ‘pride of the nation’. Behind the challenging journey of Astra to continuously stand as the pride of the nation are the core values and modern management which go hand in hand to produce excellence – the theme of this book. It is exemplified in the Latin phrase per aspera ad astra, ‘Reach for the stars through diligence.’
The GCBME Book Series aims to promote the quality and methodical reach of the Global Conference on Business Management & Entrepreneurship, which is intended as a high-quality scientific contribution to the science of business management and entrepreneurship.

The conference provided opportunities for the delegates to exchange new ideas and implementation of experiences, to establish business or research connections and to find Global Partners for future collaboration. The conference and resulting volume in the book...
While doing fieldwork in the modernizing Javanese city of Solo during the late 1980s, Suzanne Brenner came upon a neighborhood that seemed like a museum of a bygone era: Laweyan, a once-thriving production center of batik textiles, had embraced modernity under Dutch colonial rule, only to fend off the modernizing forces of the Indonesian state during the late twentieth century. Focusing on this community, Brenner examines what she calls the making of the "unmodern." She portrays a merchant enclave clinging to its distinctive forms of social life and highlights the unique power of women in the marketplace and the home--two domains closely linked to each other through local economies of produc...
Betty Smith, daughter of the president of the United States, is a rare combination of extreme beauty and intelligence. She is also a unique product of a new form of security initiative. Betty is a walking weaponry entity. She can operate literally any type of weaponry system, has extensive knowledge of technology and geography, and is fluent in six languages. Her extensive training has been kept secret, unknown to even her closest confidants, including the President and First Lady. Betty journeys through a sequence of encounters with Islamic fundamentalists. First, she is kidnapped, but the abductors soon find out that they made a great mistake-and they pay dearly for it. The counteroffensiv...
This book provides readers with an overview of the frequent occurrence of asymmetric cell division. Employing a broad range of examples, it highlights how this mode of cell division constitutes the basis of multicellular organism development and how its misregulation can lead to cancer. To underline such developmental correlations, readers will for example gain insights into stem cell fate and tumor growth. In turn, subsequent chapters include descriptions of asymmetric cell division from unicellular organisms to humans in both physiological and pathological conditions. The book also illustrates the importance of this process for evolution and our need to understand the background mechanisms, offering a valuable guide not only for students in the field of developmental biology but also for experienced researchers from neighboring fields.
The technical program of The First ICTES 2018 consisted of 114 full papers. Aside from the high-quality technical paper presentations we also held workshop and clinic manuscript that was carried out before the main track aims to strengthen the ability to write scientific publications. Coordination with the steering chairs, Dr. Kadek Suranata, S.Pd, M.Pd.,Kons., and the members of organizing committee is essential for the success of the conference. We sincerely appreciate all the Advisory Boards for the constant support and guidance. It was also a great pleasure to work with such an excellent organizing committee team for their hard work in organizing and supporting the conference. In particu...
The 2nd International Conference on Industrial Technology and Information Designs (ICITID) shortly on 30 August 2021, at Institut Teknologi Nasional Yogyakarta, Sleman, Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The Conference adopts a timely theme, Industry 4.0: Transfer and Capacity of Technopreneur. As we know that the key objective of Industry 4.0 is to drive manufacturing forward: to be faster, more efficient, and customer-centric while pushing beyond automation and optimization to discover new business opportunities and models. On the other hand, a technopreneur is an entrepreneur who understands technology, who is creative, innovative, dynamic, and dares to be different. So, The Fourth Industrial Revolution has opened a wide gate of opportunities to us as technopreneurs. The goals of ICITID 2021 are to bring together experts in the field of information technology and industrial design so that we can realize together the potential of technology in industry 4.0. around Asia Pacific nations, particularly Indonesia.
