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
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
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
Gobierno de TI utilizando COBIT 2019 para la mejora de su gestión en la empresa Inversiones TMSI E.I.R.L. – año 2022
Full text linkActualmente, dentro del contexto TI, podemos decir que ya no solo es necesario estar
actualizados con la tecnología, sino también lograr tener una estructura orientada a buenas
prácticas y poder obtener una ventaja competitiva, Todas las empresas a la medida que
empiezan a crecer, comienzan a adquirir más riesgos al gestionar sus procesos internos o
sus incidencias, originando la mayoría de veces los retrasos en la producción y/o atención
a sus clientes.
Tal es el caso de la empresa Inversiones Teonila Maura Sánchez Iparraguirre E.I.R.L
(TMSI), una empresa dedicada a la extracción minera y transporte por carretera desde el
año 2012, donde actualmente empezó a tener grandes demandas en el mercado haciendo
que crezca rápidamente, está enfrentando diferentes problemas internos en sus procesos
y en el desarrollo de la toma de decisiones ejecutivas.
En el presente trabajo se plantea una propuesta de Gobierno de TI orientado a las buenas
prácticas de COBIT 2019 para poder mejorar significativamente los procesos de gestión
de TI en la empresa, se toma como población los usuarios participantes en los procesos
de gestión de TI y como muestra se usa la fórmula de población finita, logrando tener la
muestra poblacional que se usará en la aplicación de las técnicas de recolección de datos,
como lo son las encuestas, entrevistas y observaciones del análisis y resultados, dichos
instrumentos se aplicarán tanto al inicio del proyecto como al final, logrando así poder
tener una comparación de los resultados.
Se logra obtener un diseño personalizado de gobierno de TI orientado a las buenas
prácticas de COBIT 2019, logrando identificar los principales riesgos y diferentes roles
que necesita tomar para lograr obtener una ventaja competitiva, del diseño realizado se
toma como muestra a implementar uno de los procesos con más inconvenientes, que es
la mesa de ayuda.
Siguiendo las tareas propuestas por COBIT 2019 y alineándolas a las necesidades de la
empresa, se implementó un Sistema de gestión de Servicios de TI (ITOP) para obtener un
control de las incidencias de los usuarios y un mapeo de las incidencias más frecuentes
con el fin de reducir el tiempo de atención de soporte.Currently, within the IT context, we can say that it is not only necessary to be up-to-date
with technology, but also to have a structure oriented to good practices and to be able to
obtain a competitive advantage. All companies, as they begin to grow, begin to acquire
more risks when managing their internal processes or their incidents, most of the time
causing delays in production and/or customer service.
Such is the case of the company Inversiones Teonila Maura Sánchez Iparraguirre E.I.R.L
(TMSI), a company dedicated to mining extraction and road transport since 2012, where
it currently began to have great demands in the market causing it to grow rapidly, is facing
different internal problems in its processes and in the development of executive decision
making.
In the present work, an IT Governance proposal is proposed, oriented to the good
practices of COBIT 2019 in order to significantly improve the IT management processes
in the company, taking as a population the users participating in the IT management
processes and as sample the finite population formula is used, managing to have the
population sample that will be used in the application of data collection techniques, such
as surveys, interviews and observations of the analysis and results, these instruments will
be applied both at the beginning of the project as at the end, thus achieving a comparison
of the results.
It is possible to obtain a personalized IT governance design oriented to the good practices
of COBIT 2019, managing to identify the main risks and different roles that you need to
take in order to obtain a competitive advantage, from the design carried out it is taken as
a sample to implement one of the processes. with more drawbacks, which is the help desk.
Following the tasks proposed by COBIT 2019 and aligning them to the needs of the
company, an-IT Service Management System (ITOP) was implemented to obtain control
of user incidents and a mapping of the most frequent incidents in order to reduce support attention timeTesi

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
No full textIn Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
