    A Comprehensive Review of COBIT and ISO 27001: Approaches to Auditing Credit Bureau Automation System (CBAS) at PT XYZ

    Authors: Reyhan Syafier Al Hadad ; Hanhan Maulana

    DOI: 10.1109/ICSPIS59665.2023.10402713

    Abstract:

    This study evaluates, compares and discuss the approaches of COBIT and ISO 27001 in auditing the Credit Bureau Automation System (CBAS) at PT XYZ. The authors employ a qualitative comparative analysis to explore and synthesize qualitative information from scholarly sources. This study concludes that ISO 27001 is better suited for auditing CBAS as it has a strong focus on information security and risk management, as well as flexibility to tailor to client needs. In contrast, COBIT has a more generalized scope and covers broader IT topics. However, the authors suggest that both frameworks can complement each other in an audit, depending on the organization’s specific needs. This study also highlights the strengths of COBIT, such as its comprehensive framework that enables organizations to attain their goals in corporate IT governance and management, and suggests a simplified IT risk management maturity audit system based on ‘COBIT 5 for Risk’ to evaluate the maturity of IT risk management in an organization. Overall, this study provides valuable insights into the applicability of COBIT and ISO 27001 in auditing CBAS and offers suggestions for organizations to improve their IT governance and risk management practices. © 2023 IEEE.

    An Augmented Reality-Based Lipstick Color Recommendation System Model to Help Prevent COVID-19 Spreadness

    Authors: Agustia R.D. ; Bryllyantri A.

    DOI: 10.1063/5.0128549

    Abstract:

    The aim of this research is to provide lipstick color recommendations based on the analogous color theory. The recommended lipstick color is based on the user’s skin tone color, where the skin color that is taken is the skin of lip color. Facial landmark detection will be used as a method to detect the position of the user’s lips where the recommended lipstick color results can be seen in the form of augmented reality. To find out what lipstick products are used as the basis for lipstick color recommendations, questionnaires were distributed using random sampling to 100 female respondents, and data was sorted to obtain the three products that were most widely used by female respondents in Indonesia. Based on the results of the questionnaire the products most widely used by respondents are Wardah, Makeover, and Emina products. The results of the research is lipstick color recommendation system model based on the user’s skin tone color using augmented reality facial landmark detection method. Based on performance testing, detection can be carried out well with the criteria that the face is facing the camera with a tilt position of 0 °-45 °, the optimal distance between the camera and the face is 20-80 cm, and with optimal lighting using 40W incandescent lamp or 8 W-23W fluorescent lamp. During the COVID-19 pandemic, using lipstick product samples at the same time will increase the risk of contracting COVID-19 so the lipstick color recommendation system will be an alternative to help prevent COVID-19 spreads. © 2023 Author(s).

  • Optimized PID Control for Enhanced Electric Power Steering System Performance

    Optimized PID Control for Enhanced Electric Power Steering System Performance

    Authors: Rodi Hartono ; Hyun Rok Cha ; Kyoo Jae Shin

    DOI: 10.1109/INCITEST64888.2024.11121507

    Abstract:

    This research investigates the application of a proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller for controlling an electric power steering (EPS) system equipped with a brushless direct current (BLDC) motor. EPS is an advanced automotive technology to assists drivers by reducing the physical effort needed to steer a vehicle and enabling precise computer-controlled steering in autonomous vehicles. EPS systems offer significant benefits over traditional hydraulic systems, including improved energy efficiency and steering precision. While EPS systems can present challenges due to their nonlinear characteristics, this study focuses on their linear range where the PID controller’s simplicity and effectiveness are beneficial. By optimizing PID parameters, the controller achieved precise tracking, fast transient response, and minimal steady-state error. Performance evaluation using a ± 10° angle target showed a rise time of 0.155 seconds, a settling time of 0.307 seconds, and an overshoot of 3.6% for a +10° target, and a rise time of 0.155 seconds, a settling time of 0.310 seconds, and an overshoot of 3.3% for a -10 target. These results show the PID controller’s capability to deliver consistent and accurate control in the EPS system, particularly when operating within its linear range. © 2024 IEEE.
