    蠶絲業係產製銷一元化的產業,在鼎盛時期本省擁有桑園2737 公頃,生產蠶繭1824 噸;五家繅絲工廠,設備產能約8 萬公斤;十餘家織布廠,生產各式蠶絲織品,其中七家保稅工廠生產銷日和服,每年輸出量約為180 萬平方公尺;此外,尚有一家專業染整廠及幾家斷續生產下游加工廠配合,形成一個完整的生產休系。 目前在農務生產方面,桑園面積僅餘114 公頃,以產製平面繭為主:在製造方面,繅絲設備閒置,專業染整廠停工,僅餘七家保稅生產之織布廠繼續生產輸日和服製品;然而在銷售方面,蠶絲被的供不應求,內衣著產品的普遍受重視,以及仕紳、淑女對領帶、絲巾、圍巾等飾物的喜好,使得蠶絲製品在銷售方面呈現一片欣欣向榮的景象。這種產製銷失調的現象,實有待進一步的調整與分工。 由於生產形態的改變,進口原料加工製成各式產品後輸出,已成為必然的趨勢;因此如何順應未來產品特性的需求,生產各種擁有不同特質的原料、中間產品或成品,就成為未來蠶絲加工的重點所在。此外,產品形象的建立,使用及管理的方便性,以及產品健康性與安全性的保障,都是未來意絲製品及蠶絲加工能否持續發展的關鍵所在。 Silk is an industrial property including agricultural production, industrial manufacturiug and business reeling. There were 2737 Ha of mulberry planted area amd 1824 tons of cocoon production at Taiwan in the heyday (about in 1980), five reeling factories could produce eighty thousand kgs of raw silk, and seven weaving factories could also produce five million square meters of silk fabrics, these industrial productions linked that only one finishing factory to form a complete production line. At present , there were 114 Ha of mulberry planted area to produce 10 tons of flatway-spinned cocoon in the last year, reeling factories have already cease to produce raw silk since 1992, and that only one finishing factory has also been stopped to operate. conversely, the business sales of silk products are in the prospering situation, such as the supply of silk quilt is unable to meet the demand, and the neckties, scarfs, muffelers of silk ornaments have also become the favourable things of consumers. These will made the silk products more attractive. From the view of industrial production, the production structure of importing raw material ond exporting final products will become the trend of silk production in the future. Furthermore, the demands of consumers and the developings of new characteristic silks will apparently become two primary factors whick would affect the silk production. However, the fuctural developments of silk products will be focussed in the following aspects, such as the improvements of product properties, the security and healthy assurement of product, and the image of consumers

    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

    koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist

    No full text
    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

    Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902

    No full text
    In 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.
