William Paget and the late-Henrican polity, 1543-1547
This thesis explores the late-Henrican polity through the archive and perspective of William
Paget, Henry VIII's secretary at the end of his reign. Paget's papers as secretary (1543-1547), that
form the basis of the thesis, are an extensive, unique and relatively under-used source. From this
starting-point Paget's role as secretary is explored and he is revealed as the personal servant of
the king, whose natural environment was the court. As such he was an influential source of
counsel and perhaps the key patronage-broker at court. In this context Paget also had a significant
influence over the operation of the dry stamp at the end of the reign. Equally, Paget's role in
shaping the function of the secretary and his relations with the recently formed privy council was
of considerable importance, providing the template for later Tudor secretaries.
Diplomacy in the uncertain world of the 1540s was one of Paget's primary concerns and his
priorities can be seen as trying to provide security and stability for the realm. This is revealed not
only in his 'Consultation' of August 1546 but also in his diplomacy with the French, the
Schmalkaldic League and the Papacy. In this he sometimes found himself at odds with the king
and leading a privy council united in a desire for peace.
Politically Paget has traditionally been cast as an ambitious politique, the 'master of practices'
and part of the earl of Hertford's reform party. Whilst acknowledging Paget's close relations with
Hertford this thesis questions the factional interpretation of the last years of the reign and argues
that the predominant concern of Paget and his fellow privy councillors was a peaceful succession
in which unanimity rather than conflict was the key-note

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
Comparative study of Radio Mobile and ICS Telecom propagation prediction models for DVB-T
In this paper, a comparative study between the results of a measurement campaign conducted in northern Greece and simulations performed with Radio Mobile and ICS Telecom radio planning tools is performed. The DVB-T coverage of a transmitting station located near the city of Thessaloniki is
estimated using three empirical propagation models (NTIA-ITS Longley Rice, ITU-R P.1546 and Okumura-Hata-Davidson) and one deterministic model (ITU-R 525/526). The best results in terms of minimum average error and standard deviation are obtained using the deterministic model and the NTIA-ITS
Longley Rice empirical model. In order to improve the results, the tuning options available in the ICS Telecom software are used on the Okumura-Hata-Davidson model, leading to a significant
increase in accuracy
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
