The vanishing author in computer-generated works: a critical analysis of recent Australian case law
Abstract
The use of software is ubiquitous in the creation of many copyright works, yet the requirement in copyright law that every work have a human author who engages in independent intellectual effort means that its use may prevent copyright subsistence. Several recent Australian cases have refocused attention on authorship as an essential criterion of copyright subsistence, and these cases suggest that much computer-produced output may be authorless and thus lack copyright protection. This article, the first in a two-part series, analyses how each case deals with the question of authorship of computer-produced works and why the use of software diminishes copyright protection for a significant number of computer-generated works. The article critiques the application of conventional notions of human authorship developed in the pre-computer age to modern productions and suggests alternative approaches to authorship that satisfy both the major objectives of copyright policy and the need to adapt to the computer age. The article argues that, without a broader judicial approach to authorship of computer-generated works, Parliament must remedy the lacuna in protection for these ‘authorless’ works. Possible solutions for reform are suggested. In a forthcoming article, the author comprehensively examines those reform proposals
Invloed rivierdijkverzwaring op buitendijks gebouw: Schadegeval Ringdijk 458
Een rivierdijkverzwaring in Ridderkerk heeft schade veroorzaakt aan bebouwing. De schade, voornamelijk scheurvorming in metselwerk, is ontstaan door gronddeformaties in het slappe holocene pakket. Mogelijk beïnvloedt de dijkverzwaring bovendien de buitendijkse grondwaterstand. De invloed op een buitendijks gebouw, Ringdijk 458, is onzeker: - de grootte van de krachten in horizontale richting op de fundering en constructie. - de verandering van de grondwaterstand ter plaatse van de fundering. De studie omvat het bepalen van de invloed van een rivierdijkverzwaring op een buitendijks gebouw. Onderzocht wordt de verandering in buitendijkse grondwaterstand. Bovendien worden de veranderingen in horizontale krachten op de fundering en constructie van het gebouw bepaald. Door dit onderzoek wordt het inzicht in de invloed van een dijkverzwaring op de omgeving vergroot. Mogelijk dat met dit inzicht de beoordeling van schadegevallen en toekomstige dijkontwerpen verbeterd kan worden. Tevens kan dit rapport een hulp zijn bij het beoordelen van het onderzochte schadegeval Ringdijk 458.Geo-EngineeringGeotechnologyCivil Engineering and Geoscience
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
