Problems related to plagiarism in the academic field have been widely discussed in previous studies. However, previous studies that were conducted only focused on checking thesis similarities, but had not implemented the stemming algorithm in processing the data used in the research. Therefore, in this study a plagiarism detection system will be developed in thesis journals by implementing the Rabin Karp algorithm and optimization with the Literary Stemmer algorithm so that it is expected to increase the accuracy of the results of plagiarism detection. Based on the results of tests carried out through a combination of the Rabin Karp algorithm and optimization with Stemmer Literature in detecting plagiarism of student thesis journals, an accuracy rate of 80% was obtained in detecting similarities in student thesis journals in this study and the average speed of execution time was 25.6934 seconds.</em></p> Herman Copyright (c) 2024 Herman https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 https://ejurnal.methodist.ac.id/index.php/methoda/article/view/2428 Tue, 30 Apr 2024 00:00:00 +0700 POTENSI LABU SIAM SEBAGAI ANALGETIK https://ejurnal.methodist.ac.id/index.php/methoda/article/view/2544 <p><em>Pain is an unpleasant emotional sensation.

Currently, the company is still facing problems in managing Human Resources (HR) because it uses a manual recording system. Data integration between branches is less effective, making it difficult to record jobs and obtain information about employee conditions and performance. Complicated employee data management also causes errors in data management. The process of calculating employee salaries is also slow and has the potential for errors to occur. The HRD application that was built has an automatic salary calculation feature based on employee absences, leave, permission, illness, holidays, tardiness, and absence. With this application, HR management can monitor employee performance and calculate salaries quickly and accurately. Automatic reporting features, including payroll slips and employee salary summary, are also provided. The results showed that the HRD application was successful in overcoming complex employee data management problems at Vizta Gym. The DeLone and McLean method was used to measure the success of this application and showed very good results with percentages above 85% for each indicator variable.</em></p> Robby Wijaya, Didik Aryanto, David David Copyright (c) 2024 Robby Wijaya, Didik Aryanto, David David https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 https://ejurnal.methodist.ac.id/index.php/methoda/article/view/2436 Tue, 30 Apr 2024 00:00:00 +0700 PERANCANGAN WEBSITE E-COMMERCE MULTI CABANG PADA PT.

On the internal side, the company has not been able to properly integrate the sales processes of its three branches. In addition, the main problem is related to the amount of transaction data stored in the company's storage. Transaction data recorded every day will certainly burden storage if it is not used properly to become useful knowledge for the company. From the description of the problem, it is necessary to develop a multi-branch based system that is implemented on an E-Commerce website. This research also implements the Jaccard Coefficient algorithm so that it can process company data which turns a lot of knowledge into product recommendations for customers.
