    Full text link
    Industrial centers are often used as places for small and medium enterprise (SMEs) development activities and sources of regional income. This includes wooden batik centers in the DIY Province, namely in Putat Village, Gunung Kidul Regency, and Sendangsari Village, Bantul Regency. However, the development activities of SMEs in industrial centers in Indonesia were not optimal, one of the reasons is the management strategy. Therefore, this article contains a comparative study of management styles of development activities, using qualitative research methods, with multiple cases.  The results showed that there was a different management style of SMEs development activities in the wooden batik center, where the management style of the wooden batik center SMEs development activity in Putat Village which was applied by the management of Kopinkra Sumber Rejeki Makmur as a center development institution was authoritarian, so the management system tends to be closed. In contrast to the management style of SMEs development activities in the wooden batik center in Sendangsari Village, which is applied by the Sido Katon Cooperative management as a development center institution assisted by the Pokdarwis Institute and BPDW Krebet Binangun, it is democratic, so the management system tends to be open

    Micro fiance is an important tool for achieving development by the Government of Indonesia in three things directly: to create jobs, increase incomes, and reduce poverty. Access to sustainable fiancial services is a prerequisite for micro entrepreneurs to improve their business and reduce the vulnerability of poor families in the life ( to calamity and economic problems), as well as to increase their income. Micro fiance is an important tool in the country’s development strategy aimed at supporting the achievement of the Millennium Development Goals. The national policy for micro fiance is needed to overcome the limitations of micro fiance through the creation of an enabling environment for micro fiance institutions that already exist today to expand their services and to support the establishment of micro fiance institutions to fil the gap in demand and supply of micro fiance services especially in rural areas

    The rapid development of technology in the current digital era, where the increasing use of the internet and smartphones in Indonesia means that financial service institutions can utilize digital technology to reach the public. Widely in offering their products or services online. Requiring all service sectors to be supported by quality human resources. However, despite this, the reality is that in the Sharia Banking sector, there is still a lack of quality resources and a comprehensive understanding of Sharia principles. This research method is a method where data collection is carried out by collecting data from various literature. The literature studied is not limited to books but can also include documentation materials, magazines, journals, and newspapers. This research aims to explore Sharia human capital management to improve HR in the Islamic banking environment and try to propose possible solutions to overcome problems related to improving HR performance. These changes can be an opportunity or perhaps a challenge in facing intense competition. Using a qualitative approach. There are at least two significant potential positive impacts that may arise as a result of digital transformation carried out by banking. First, expanding banking accessibility. Second, increase the competitiveness of Indonesian banking. Digital banking will be able to increase ease of access to banking for the public, as well as increase banking efficiency so that it will encourage increased economic activity

    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

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    Full text link
    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

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Full text link
    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

    We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
