Il Carattere e la Costruzione
No full textIl saggio affronta la questione del valore della "costruzione" nel progetto di architettura.
La riflessione è focalizzata sul valore “espressivo" delle forme della costruzione. Si indaga il rapporto tra forme tecniche e forme architettoniche in differenti sistemi costruttivi (tettonici/stereotomici) riconoscendo nel "decoro", proprio della forma architettonica, una intenzionalità rappresentativa dei principi di "costruzione". Utilizzando la categoria del "decoro" si analizzano le sintassi e le "forme identificatrici" degli elementi del linguaggio architettonico corrispondenti a differenti principi di costruzione. Si descrivono successivamente i caratteri delle forme e i caratteri degli spazi riferirti a differenti "idee di costruzione". La parte finale del saggio è dedicata alla trattazione del rapporto di "appropriatezza" da istituire tra caratteri della costruzione e caratteri dell'edificio.The paper faces the matter of the value of the "Construction" in the project of architecture.
The reflection is focused on the "expressive" value of constructive forms. The author investigates the relationship between technical forms and architectural forms in different constructive systems (tectonic vs stereotomic) recognizing in the "decorum", proper of the architectural forms, the intentionality of represent the principles of "construction." The author analyses the syntaxes and the “forms” identifying the elements of the architectural language (basing on different principles of construction), using the category of the "decorum". Subsequently are described the characters of the forms and the characters of the spaces reported to different "ideas of construction." The final part of the paper treats the concept of "appropriateness" analysing the relationship between characters of the construction and characters of the building
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

No full textAppropriate 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
Arte Scienza Tecnica del Costruire
No full textIl fine di questo volume è quello di ripensare criticamente le contaminazioni tra saperi che il progetto architettonico ha richiesto e sempre più richiede. Dalla tecnica all'arte, dalla fisica all'economia, dalle scienze ambientali, alla filosofia e all'estetica, l'architetto è costretto, che lo voglia ono, a vogare controcorrente nell'epoca degli iperspecialismi. Tanto la formazione di un architetto quanto la ricerca negli ambiti legati all'architettura esigono una peculiare disponibilità a lasciarsi contaminare da altri saperi e punti di vista scientifici. Di qui la difficoltà, e insieme il fascino nella pratica architettonica e della riflessione sul progetto d'architettura
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe 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
