Highlights of Library Automation related documents in the INSPEC
Get PDFThe paper has attempted to analyse the Library Automation related records in the INSPEC (1969 to July 2004). The growth of Library Automation related literature, country of input, scattering of literature in different publication types, core journals publishing Library Automation related publications, language-wise proportion of the literature, content analysis through keywords/descriptors, availability of URLs (Universal Resource Locator) for full text articles as alternative locations were the main focus of the study. After the year 1984, the literature grows approximately linearly with a growth rate of about 600 items per year. The USA is the predominant publishing country of Library Automation related literature. Journals are the most preferred publication media, followed by Conference/Proceedings-Papers, Book-Chapters, and Reports publications. Most productive journals are: Library Hi Tech, followed by Computers in Libraries, VINE, Information Technology and Libraries, and Program. English articles constitute 91.83% of the total literature. That means the non-English articles constitute only 8.17%. The keyword analysis indicates that the key areas of Library Automation were cataloguing; academic-libraries; information-retrieval; Internet; and information-services. The most occurred URL was http://www.dlib.org/ as alternative locations in the availability notes of Library Automation related records
Bedform effect on the reorganization of surface and subsurface grain size distribution in gravel bedded channels
No full textQuantification of
river bedform variability and complexity is
important for sediment transport modeling as well as for characterization
of river morphology. Alluvial bedforms are shown to exhibit highly non-
linear dynamics across a range of scales, affect local bed roughness, and
vary with local hydraulic, hydrologic, and geomorphic properties. This
paper examines sediment sorting on the crest and trough of gravel bed-
forms and relates it to bed elevation statistics. The data analysed here are
the spatial and temporal series of bed elevation, grain size distribution of
surface and subsurface bed materials, and sediment transport rates from
flume experiments. We describe surface topography through bedform
variability in height and wavelength and multiscale analysis of bed eleva-
tions as a function of discharge. We further relate bedform migration to
preferential distribution of coarse and fine sediments on the troughs and
crests, respectively, measuring directly surface and subsurface grain size
distributions, and indirectly the small scale roughness variations as esti-
mated from high resolution topographic scans

Desorption of artemisinin extracts of CIM-Arogya by supercritical carbon dioxide
Get PDFArtemisinin is a drug for chloroquine resistant malaria and cerebral malaria treatments. In the recent past, there was an acute shortage of this drug and hence World Health Organization made a strategy to fulfil the Artemisinin demand.
In this study, artemisinin was extracted by supercritical Carbon Dioxide (SFCO2) from CIM-Arogya, a variety of Artemisia annua, in temperature and pressure ranges of 313.1-333.1 K and 15–25 MPa. Artemisinin global yield isotherms were determined obtaining a maximum yield of 3.65 wt%. Artemisinin extracts were also obtained by hexane Soxhlet extraction: then, the crude extracts were purified using SFCO2, after adsorption on silica gel. Different desorption runs were performed with a 6 ml/min CO2 flow rate, in temperature and pressure ranges of 313.1–333.1 K and 15–25 MPa. At different time intervals, extracts were collected and analysed: their yields varied from 2.75% to 4.34% function of the experimental conditions. Desorption trials were also correlated with different models
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Purification of artemisinin from hexane extracts of CIM-Arogya on solid matrix by supercritical CO2 extraction
No full textVariations on the Author
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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
