Energy Management Final with Serious Games
Posted by systems in Class, News, Serious Simulation Gaming SSG on 26/05/2011
As the final weeks of 2011 2nd-semester is ending, the Energy Management Class has a unique and one-of-kind final exams in University of Indonesia. The exam used a simulation gaming applications based on systems dynamics. The topics of the exam is on analysis of electricity subsidy in Indonesia.
The game simulate various decision making process that the students could test, and then based on the results, they were asked a series of analytical questions that can get from the game. The answers were collected real time online in SEMS lab computers.

Two of our researchers, Armand Omar and Aziiz Sutrisno, was presenting at th 4th International Conference on Modelling and Simulation, Phuket, Thailand on April 25-26, 2011. Both of their papers were among 179 paper selected from 512 paper submissions, representing 35% acceptance rate.
Pak Armand presented his research with Pak Komarudin on “Combination of Dummy Department and Wheel Structure Representation for Facility Layout Problems with Empty Space”.
Pak Aziis presented his research with Pak Akhmad on “Systems Dynamics Model for Understanding Contributions of Biodiesel Industry in Indonesia”
SEMShare: Industrial Engineers & Capital Markets
Posted by systems in Lab Development Program, News on 28/04/2011
SEMShare topics for this time is about Industrial Engineers and Capital Markets. The knowledge sharing events invited Mr Yanuar Pranuradhi as Head of Business Development at PT Mandiri Sekuritas.
Pak Yanuar started by reflecting on his years in IEUI on how he, as an Industrial Engineers, transformed from working in engineering at Schlumberger to finally arrived working in the capital markets. He then explained how the capital markets works to highlight all the sub-sistems in which how Industrial Engineers could contribute by utilizing the system approach on improving the process.
The session was alive with questions about capital markets, including the last world economic crisis which somehow triggered by the capital markets.
We would like to thanks pak Yanuar who had taken the time from his busy schedule to share his knowledge with us.
SEMShare is a regular program from SEMS Lab in which we invites experts for open discussion within small groups to expand our horizon of thinking.
Bon Voyage, Pak Komar
Pak Komarudin will be continuing his study for PhD to Belgium, SEMSLab is conducting a farewell lunch to wish him farewell that was held on April 26, 2011. We invited all the Research Assistants, Lab Assistants, Friends and Alumni to wish him the best for next journey.
SEMShare : Operational Excellence
Posted by admin_sems in Lab Development Program, News on 11/04/2011
The SEMS Knowledge Sharing Program (SEMShare) continues with more topics regarding the industrial engineering world. This week, one of our alumni, Mr. Ricky Tjok, gave a lecture regarding Operational Excellence in Organization. Slightly different from the last event, this time, students who are taking the QCAS class are mandatory to attend this discussion.
Mr. Ricky Tjok graduated from IE UI in 2008, and has been working for Accenture ever since. He has done some consulting project and now ready to pass on his experience to the younger generation of IE UI Student. The discussion start with a brief explanation of Accenture and what the company does. Then, Mr. Ricky continued by explaining the definition of Operational Exellence. Because most of the attendants are from the QCAS class, Mr. Ricky then tried to link the term “Operational Excellence” to many quality improvement methods such as Six Sigma.
The Q&A session was alive with some question from the student regarding the topic, but the focus was on the Six Sigma project since they are currently conducting that kind of project for their Final Assignment in the QCAS class.
