ARIMAX versus Holt Winter Methods: The Case of Blood Demand Prediction in ThailandArdthawee Tanyavutti, & Uthai Tanlamai
pp. 519-525 | Article Number: ijese.2018.046
Abstract National and Regional Blood Center are the main blood transfusion centers to acquire blood from donors and distribute to hospitals in Thailand. However, the estimation of blood availability can be difficult because of specific factors such as a very high number of blood donors during the birthday of King and Queen and a seasonal blood shortage during major holidays like the New Year. This paper focuses on statistically prediction of blood demand in Thailand. Monthly data from January 2012 to December 2015 are separated into 2 periods, 45 months for model training and 3 months for model validation. Box-Jenkin’s models with independent variables (ARIMAX) and Holt Winter’s techniques are compared to report the best model fit using the smallest value of Mean Absolute Percentage Error. The two independent variables affecting the blood demands based on geolocation are Platelet Demand and Dengue Fever Patients. The result finds that majority predictions by ARIMAX provide better model fit. R script in Tableau is used for tool development.

The Role of Sovereign Credit Default Swaps in Four Asian Stock MarketsSang Hoon Kang, & Seong-Min Yoon
pp. 541-549 | Article Number: ijese.2018.049
Abstract We investigated the role of sovereign credit default swaps as a hedge against or safe haven under conditions of risk according to the Asian Morgan Stanley Capital Index (MSCI) for China, Korea, Malaysia, and Thailand. To this end, we applied the bivariate DCC-GARCH model to daily CDS–MSCI pair data for 2002–2014. The empirical results showed that CDSs serve as an effective hedge against risk in four Asian stock markets. In addition, CDSs also play an important role as safe havens in times of extreme stock market volatility and during periods of financial crisis.

pp. 551-557 | Article Number: ijese.2018.050
Abstract This study is about jemparingan. Jemparingan or Mataraman style traditional archery is one of traditional activities, centered in Keraton Kesultanan (Yogyakarta Royal Palace) and Pakualaman, Indonesia. The aim of this research was to discuss the perspective of Kawruh Jiwa Ki Ageng Suryomentaram (KAS) on ‘mindfulness as the synergy between the philosophy of jemparingan and how the players of jemparingan valuing their life through the philosophy’. Kawruh Jiwa of KAS is closely related to Javanese traditional values. It is emphasizes on understanding important things that often determines people’s ability to know and recognize their self/soul. Therefore Kawruh Jiwa was choosen to be the perspective of analysing mindfulness of Jemparingan players. This study used qualitative pheno-ethnography based on two reasons. First, the phenomenological approach as a method of research focuses on the processes and interactive events through the individual experience. Second, etnography approach as the extensive study towards natural behaviour in specific culture or certain social group enable this study to analyse individual experience in order to reveal the behaviour pattern. Two main participants involved in this research are jemparingan players and located in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. Data collection was done through observation and interviews. The results found that the philosophy of jemparingan has value that can be used by jemparingan players to give the meaning of their life. Unfortunately, not all of jemparingan players are aware about the philosophy of jemparingan. If the players aware about the philosophy, they will be able to find the meaning of life. Eventually, there are two choices for jemparingan players. They use mindfulness to do jemparingan or through jemparingan they found mindfulness.
