Numérisation effectuée à partir d'un document original.Ce volume, relié en désordre, contient le texte de la fin du second tome (muğallad) (f. 42- 114v), puis le troisième tome (muğallad III, f. 115v à 188v, qui devraient être suivis du f. 1) et la continuation – par l’auteur lui-même – de l’histoire de Ğuvaynī, laquelle forme un « quatrième tome » (f. 1v- 41v), lequel est différent du traité intitulé Tasliyyat al-ihvān [comparer à Supplément persan 1556,III] (qui est cité au f. 3) et va jusqu’en 681H.(/1282).Il s’agit de la seconde moitié d’un ms. déjà dispersé à date ancienne. L’autre partie, qui contient le premier muğallad et le premier tiers du second, avait été acquise à Istanbul vers 1890 par Clément Huart (1854 – 1926), puis fit partie de la collection de Jean Schopfer, alias Claude Anet (1868- 1931) ; après la vente de cette dernière en juin 1920, cette première partie du ms. s’est trouvée dispersée, notamment entre le British Museum (deux peintures y sont cotées 1948-12-11-05 et 06) et l’Art Museum de Worcester (U.S.A.) (sous la cote 1935-10).Incipit du « tome IV » ou « continuation » du texte, au f. 1 Explicit f. 41v Le ms. comporte en outre (voir aussi E. Blochet, Revue des bibliothèques, 1899, p. 139 ; E.

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

Chlorination disadvantages and alternative routes for biofouling control in reverse osmosis desalination
With an ever-increasing human population, access to clean water for human use is a growing concern across the world. Seawater desalination to produce usable water is essential to meet future clean water demand. Desalination processes, such as reverse osmosis and multi-stage flash have been implemented worldwide. Reverse osmosis is the most effective technology, which uses a semipermeable membrane to produce clean water under an applied pressure. However, membrane biofouling is the main issue faced by such plants, which requires continuous cleaning or regular replacement of the membranes. Chlorination is the most commonly used disinfection process to pretreat the water to reduce biofouling. Although chlorination is widely used, it has several disadvantages, such as formation of disinfection by-products and being ineffective against some types of microbes. This review aims to discuss the adverse effect of chlorination on reverse osmosis membranes and to identify other possible alternatives of chlorination to reduce biofouling of the membranes. Reverse osmosis membrane degradation and mitigation of chlorines effects, along with newly emerging disinfection technologies, are discussed, providing insight to both academic institutions and industries for the design of improved reverse osmosis systems

Urban pattern and architecture of traditional Omani foothill settlements: al-Ḥamrā and Birkat al-Mawz
Outside of Yemen, Oman arguably contains the most significant, active vernacular heritage within the Arabian Peninsula. While some research exists on settlement pattern and architecture of large settlements on the plains (e.g., Manah, Nizwa, Bahla World Heritage Site and Ibra), little research has taken place on the nature of Omani foothill settlements. The thesis makes an important contribution to Oman studies by addressing this gap through the study of the urban pattern and architecture of two vernacular foothill settlements – Ḥarāt al- Ḥamrā and Ḥarāt as-Saybānī in Birkat al- Mawz in the Dākhliya (Interior) region of central Oman. The two oasis towns evolved during the Yaariba Imamate (mid-17th century CE onwards) and served the purpose of harnessing the tribal support of two important groups in the process of consolidation – the Abriyīn and the Banī Riyām. This thesis argues that the two settlements – new towns by Omani standards – were unique additions to Omani settlement hierarchy, introducing a new category in between the larger settlements of the plains and the small, dispersed settlement pattern of the Oman Mountains. The settlements have been studied by analysing their morphology, or how they were established and evolved over time shaped by the key factors of topography, geology and tribal movement
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
