VPRS 10551 Court of Insolvency Register
<br/>The role of the Insolvency Court was to<br/>hear and determine Orders of Sequestration<br/>monitor the implementation of Orders of Sequestration<br/>grant Certificates of Discharge certifying that the insolvent had fulfilled the obligations of the Order.<br/><br/>An Order of Sequestration was the order made by the Court of Insolvency temporarily giving control of an insolvent person's property to one or more other people. These people were called assignees or trustees and were usually a court official. They were responsible for determining how an insolvent person's property and assets should be distributed between his or her creditors. Sequestration could be voluntary, that is, a person could come before the Court and declare themselves insolvent or it could be compulsory, that is, one or more of a person's creditors could petition the Court for an Order.<br/><br/>Between 1871 and 1928 (when responsibility for insolvency passed to the Commonwealth), the Law Department instructed Clerks of Courts of Insolvency to keep an Insolvency Court Register. Insolvency Court Registers were used to record the court's decision with regard to an application for an Order of Sequestration and related court orders.<br/><br/>For each application for an Order of Sequestration the following details could be recorded in the Court Register: the name, address and occupation of the insolvent or debtor and the name of his or her Attorney; the date of filing of the application; the name and date of appointment of the assignee or trustee; details of any further court sittings, including the granting of a Certificate of Discharge; details of notices and returns which were required to be sent to the Chief Clerk of the Court of Insolvency in Melbourne and the Registrar-General and details of the publication of notice of the Order of Sequestration in the Government Gazette.<br/><br/>In 2001 VPRS 10551 was reserialised as described in the table below as part of the ARAD Project.<br/><br/>VPRS 10551/P Unit 1 to VPRS 12470/P1 Unit 1<br/>VPRS 10551/P Unit 2 to VPRS 12471/P1 Unit 1<br/>VPRS 10551/P Unit 3 to VPRS 12469/P1 Unit 1<br/>VPRS 10551/P Unit 4 to VPRS 12468/P1 Unit 1<br/>VPRS 10551/P Unit 5 to VPRS 12475/P1 Unit 1<br/>VPRS 10551/P Unit 6 to VPRS 12472/P1 Unit 1<br/>VPRS 10551/P Unit 7 to VPRS 12473/P1 Unit 1<br/>VPRS 10551/P Unit 8 to VPRS 12474/P1 Unit 1<br/>VPRS 10551/P Unit 9 to VPRS 10551/P Unit
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis

Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
