Fallstudie zum Führungssystem für Stammdatenqualität bei der Bayer CropScience AG
No full textZur Konsolidierung der Systemlandschaft führte die Bayer CropScience AG eine globale Harmonisierung der Geschäftsprozesse mit Stammdatenkonsolidierung durch. Die dabei ermittelten Defizite in den Unternehmensprozessen konnten auf mangelnde Datenqualität zurückgeführt werden. Zur langfristigen Verbesserung der Prozesseffizienz wurden Geschäftsregeln definiert, die die Daten qualitativ bewerten und Verbesserungsmaßnahmen nach sich ziehen. Ein Kennzahlensystem dient der Auswertung der Regeln. Zur kontinuierlichen Überwachung der Datenqualität und Steuerung von Maßnahmen sind Aufgaben und Verantwortung definiert, zugewiesen und in den Zielsystemen der Mitarbeiter verankert

Transformed Plant Expressing a Dextransucrase and Synthesizing a Modified Starch
No full textpublication date: 2009-03-05; filing date: 2005-12-19The present invention relates to plant cells and plants, which are genetically modified, wherein the genetic modification leads to the expression in plastids of such plant cells and plants of an enzyme having the activity of a dextransucrase. Furthermore, the present invention relates to means and methods for the manufacture of such plant cells and plants. Plant cells and plants of this type synthesis a modified starch. The present invention therefore also relates to the starch synthesized by the plant cells and plants according to the invention as well as to methods for the manufacture of the starch and to the manufacture of starch derivatives of this modified starch
Analyzing trends and influences of New Work to enhance retention and attraction of production site shift workers
No full textThe world of work is currently experiencing a paradigm shift. Demographic shifts and the growing intensity of the "war for talent" require that employers remain competitive in the labor market. Due to the retirement of Baby Boomers over the next few years, it will become increasingly challenging to find skilled employees, which leads to skilled worker shortages. In addition to the shortage of skilled workers, companies are confronted with the needs and aspirations of a new generation that will shape the digitalized working world
Triafamone (AE 1887196) a new rice herbicide for Asia
Full text linkTriafamone (approved ISO common name) is a new sulfonanilide herbicide discovered and developed by Bayer CropScience AG under the code number AE 1887196. Its mode of action is inhibition of the enzyme acetolactate synthase (ALS). Field trials since 2007 have shown that triafamone can be effectively used in direct seeded or transplanted rice from seeding or transplanting to late post-emergence at rates of 20 to 50 g a.i./ha using spray or granular formulations. Target weeds are important grasses such as Echinochloa crus-galli, Echinochloa colonum, Echinochloa oryzicola, Paspalum distichum, Isachne globosa, and sedges (including ALS resistant strains). The selective weed control spectrum is further extended in several co-formulation products being developed by Bayer CropScience AG. Environmental fate, ecotoxicology and toxicology studies indicate that triafamone has a favorable user, consumer and environmental profile. First registrations are expected in 2014
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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 linkWe 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
