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
Pla de màrqueting König
No full textCurs 2022-2023El següent Pla de Màrqueting està dissenyat pel König, una empresa familiar, d'origen gironí, que va obrir el seu primer local al centre de Girona el febrer de 1973. Als seus inicis es tractava d'un establiment tipus Frankfurt. Actualment, però, ja compta amb vuit restaurants a la província de Girona, dos al centre de Barcelona, un restaurant a Vic i finalment un nou establiment a Blanes.
Aquest negoci, de primeres, no té cap problema, és un restaurant que les persones que el porten tenen les idees molt clares, saben el que volen i saben que podrien créixer més, però no els interessa, ja que el seu objectiu principal és donar un servei excel·lent al públic, que les persones que hi vagin no se sentin abordats per publicitat ni per la gent, el seu objectiu és que els clients se sentin còmodes i com a casa.
Tot i així, creiem que aquest negoci podria créixer molt més si decidís centrar-se més en la comunicació. Ja que, com molt bé ens van dir des de l'empresa, la comunicació del König és la no comunicació.
D'aquesta manera, l'any 2021 es va facturar de benefici comú, a tots els locals König de Catalunya, un total de 20.829.345€, però, igual que la majoria de restaurants d'arreu del món es van veure afectats per la Covid-19, durant l'any 2020.
A partir d'aquesta informació, i fent una àrdua anàlisi interna i externa de tots els elements que influeixen al restaurant, es van plantejar una nova estratègia, uns nous objectius i un conjunt d'accions enfocades a donar un nou enfocament a la marca centrada a un nou públic objectiu més jove tenint en compte la tendència dels joves a no repetir i la necessitat de mantenir-se rellevant en un mercat canviant.
Totes aquestes accions estan dissenyades per complir amb l'objectiu comercial d'augmentar en 1 any un 5% més d'ingressos que l'any 2021, cosa que representa un total de 1.041.467,25€ més a la facturació total.
El cost d'aquest Pla de Màrqueting és 146.306€€, inversió molt reduïda tenint en compte el benefici anual del König. D'aquesta manera, es va determinar que és un pla totalment rendible, per la qual cosa es recomana seguir les recomanacions exposades en aquest document per tal d'assolir l'objectiu mencionat i augmentar les vendes un 5%, percentatge mínim tenint present la quantitat i qualitat de les accions exposades.

MàrquetingThe following Marketing Plan is designed for König, a family-owned company from Girona that opened its first establishment in the centre of Girona in February 1973. Initially, it was a Frankfurt-style establishment. Currently, however, they have eight restaurants in the province of Girona, two in the centre of Barcelona, one restaurant in Vic, and a new establishment in Blanes.
At first glance, this business doesn't have any issues. It is a restaurant where the owners have a clear vision and know what they want. They could potentially grow further, but they are not interested in that because their main goal is to provide excellent service to the public. They want customers to feel comfortable and at home, without feeling overwhelmed by advertising or crowds.
Nevertheless, we believe that this business could grow much more if it decided to focus more on communication. As we were told by the company, König's communication strategy is non-communication.
Therefore, in 2021, the combined revenue for all König locations in Catalonia was €20,829,345 in profit. However, like most restaurants worldwide, they were affected by the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020.
Based on this information and conducting a thorough internal and external analysis of all the factors influencing the restaurant, a new strategy, objectives, and a set of actions were proposed to give the brand a new focus on a younger target audience. This was done considering the tendency of young people to seek variety and the need to stay relevant in a changing market.
All these actions are designed to achieve the commercial objective of increasing revenue by an additional 5% compared to 2021, which represents a total of €1,041,467.25 in additional revenue.
The cost of this Marketing Plan is €146,306, a relatively low investment considering König's annual profit. Thus, it was determined to be a highly profitable plan, and it is recommended to follow the recommendations outlined in this document in order to achieve the mentioned objective and increase sales by 5%, which is a conservative percentage considering the quantity and quality of the proposed actions.

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

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.
