ADOPTION OF SELECTED TRANSPLANTED AMAN TECHNOLOGIES BY THE FARMERS
J. Sher-e-Bangla Agric. Univ., 2(1): 7-11, January 2008The main purpose of the study was to determine the extent of adoption of selected T. Aman
technologies and to explore its relationship with the selected characteristics of the farmers. The
study was conducted in two villages of Pingna union under Sarishabari upazilla of Jamalpur
district. Data were collected from randomly selected 130 T. Aman growers during 12'h August to
18'" October, 2006. Findings revealed that overwhelming majority (80 %) of the farmers were
found to have medium to high adoption while only 20 % farmers belonged to low adoption of
selected T. Aman technologies. Data also revealed that among eight selected characteristics,
education, farm size, annual family income, organizational participation and extension media
contact were found to have positive significant relationships with their adoption of selected T.
Aman technologies. Other variables namely age, commercialization and cosmopolitness had no
signiticant relationship with their adoption of selected T. Aman technologies

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

Arrival and departure manager cooperation for reducing airborne holding times at destination airports
This thesis addresses the possibility of using a delay-on-ground concept in which flights with less than 1 hour flying time (often referred to as pop-up flights) absorb their arrival sequencing delay at the departure gate by being issued their Arrival Manager (AMAN)-scheduled time as a Required Time of Arrival (RTA) that is inserted into the Flight Management System (FMS). Due to their short duration these flights are currently often inserted into the AMAN sequence shortly before Terminal Manoeuvring Area (TMA) entry and thereby often need to absorb their arrival sequencing delay in the inefficient manner of airborne holding or vectoring close to the arrival airport. The literature review examines current operational procedures of AMANs and Departure Managers (DMANs), the current FMS RTA function and live trials in which the delay-on-ground concept was tested in real operations. A case study airport in Europe that has potential to benefit from the concept is identified. The performance of the delay-on-ground concept for the case study airport is then assessed by performing 180 fast-time Monte Carlo simulation runs. For each run the arrival flow to the case study airport and the departure flows from two medium-sized airports from which the pop-up flights originate are simulated. Each run represents an operational day and variations in departure/arrivals time is put into the timetables to simulate the variation in actual departure/arrival times resulting from operational factors normally encountered in day-to-day operations. An algorithm is written in Matlab to simulate an AMAN-DMAN cooperation in which pop-up flights are locked to the required departure times to meet their RTAs. It is shown that a significant reduction in airborne delay time and fuel consumption can be achieved at the case study airport by using the concept. It is also shown that it is possible to ensure that the pop-up flights depart at the required times to meet their RTAs without negatively affecting the departure sequences
