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
Variations 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
Analysis and Role of System Information Elements in the Network Operator
No full textOvaj rad bavi se analizom i ulogom informacijskog sustava kod mrežnog operatora koja ima ključnu važnost u modernoj telekomunikacijskoj industriji. Informacijski sustav mrežnog operatora obuhvaća širok spektar komponenti, uključujući mrežnu infrastrukturu, softverske aplikacije, podatkovne baze i korisničko sučelje. Ova analiza istražuje kako svaki od tih elemenata doprinosi efikasnom upravljanju mrežom i pružanju usluga korisnicima. Mrežna infrastruktura omogućuje fizičku povezanost i komunikaciju u mreži, dok softverske aplikacije olakšavaju nadzor, upravljanje i kontrolu nad mrežom. Posebna pažnja posvećuje se i ulozi informacijskog sustava u prikupljanju, analizi i obradi podataka. Ovaj aspekt je od iznimne važnosti jer omogućuje mrežnom operatoru da donosi informirane odluke, identificira trendove i obrasce te optimizira svoje poslovne procese. Osim toga, informacijski sustav ima ključnu ulogu u sigurnosti i zaštiti mrežnog operatora. Sigurnost informacijskog sustava je vrlo bitna kako bi se osigurala povjerljivost, integritet i dostupnost podataka. To uključuje zaštitu od neovlaštenog pristupa, napada i zlouporabe. Mrežni operator mora implementirati tehničke mjere poput firewalla, enkrpicije podata i autentikacije kako bi osigurao sigurnost svojih sustava. Također je važno imati procedure za upravljanje sigurnošću, uključujući obuku zaposlenika o sigurnosnim postupcima i reakcijama na incidente. Ovakav sveobuhvatan pristup sigurnosti pomaže zaštiti informacijskih sustava mrežnog operatora od potencijalnih prijetnji i ranjivosti. Ukupno gledano, informacijski sustav mrežnog operatora je temeljni dio njihovih operacija i ključan za pružanje visokokvalitetnih telekomunikacijskih usluga. Sigurnost i zaštita tih sustava su od najveće važnosti kako bi se očuvala pouzdanost i povjerenje korisnika.This paper deals with the analysis and role of the information system in the case of a network operator, which is of crucial importance in the modern telecommunications industry. The information system of a network operator encompasses a wide range of components, including network infrastructure, software applications, databases, and user interfaces. This analysis explores how each of these elements contributes to efficient network management and service provision to users. The network infrastructure enables the physical connectivity and communication within the network, while software applications facilitate monitoring, management, and control of the network. Special attention is also given to the role of the information system in data collection, analysis, and processing. This aspect is of paramount importance as it enables the network operator to make informed decisions, identify trends and patterns, and optimize its business processes. Furthermore, the information system plays a crucial role in the security and protection of the network operator. Information system security is vital to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data. This includes protection against unauthorized access, attacks, and misuse. The network operator must implement technical measures such as firewalls, data encryption, and authentication to secure its systems. It is also important to have security management procedures in place, including employee training on security procedures and responses to incidents. Such a comprehensive approach to security helps protect the information systems of the network operator from potential threats and vulnerabilities. Overall, the information system of a network operator is a fundamental part of their operations and essential for providing high-quality telecommunications services. The security and protection of these systems are of utmost importance to preserve the reliability and trust of users
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe 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

koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe 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
