Den grænseløse teknologi: om forholdet mellem krop og teknologi indenfor pervasive computing
No full textSpecialet er udarbejdet til kandidatlinien tværfaglig IT, under datalog RUC/ITU og handler om forholdet mellem krop og teknologi indenfor pervasive computing. Udgangspunktet er en tese om at dette forhold er præget af en høj grad af gensidighed interaktion, men at kroppen ofte opfattes som en entydig, uforanderlig størrelse, hvorfor forholdet mellem krop og teknologi også opfattes som entydigt og uforanderligt. Derfor undersøges hvordan kroppen opfattes og forstås som begreb samt hvordan denne opfattelse af kroppen kommer til udtryk i forbindelse med pervasive computing. Herudover præsenteres teorier, der giver mulighed for at undersøge og beskrives den gensidige interaktion mellem krop og tenologi.Specialet er udarbejdet til kandidatlinien tværfaglig IT, under datalog RUC/ITU og handler om forholdet mellem krop og teknologi indenfor pervasive computing.

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
Technology Comprehension in a More-Than-Human World
Get PDFIn this article, I wish to unfold the question: "what is technology actually and what characterizes our relation to technology?” and relate it to the technology understanding course, since how we think about and perceive technology, is arguably consequential for how we practice and conduct our lives and societies and for what we consider possibilities, problems, solutions and necessary actions. What I will argue is that we need to challenge a preferred and inherently humanistic and anthropocentric understanding of technology that sees technology as ideally a designed object subject to human control. This is an understanding that has dominated throughout enlightenment and modernity. However, my argument in this text is that it is both inadequate and problematic because it keeps us in a frame of thinking that perpetually reproduces the idea of technological solutions to problems.Digitale teknologier har utvivlsomt en betydelig indvirkning på vores samfund. Derfor er det relevant at indføre faget ”teknologiforståelse” i folkeskolen. Ligeledes er det vigtigt at diskutere kursets indhold, og specifikt hvordan teknologi beskrives og udtrykkes gennem fagets læringsmål. Baseret på feltet videnskab og teknologi (STS) analyserer jeg kursets implicitte teknologiforståelse og argumenterer for, at en forståelse af teknologi som en aktør i en mere-end-menneskelig ver-den er fraværende og bør inkluderes. Dette indebærer en forståelse af teknologi som kompleks, uigennemsigtig og ’uregerlig’. Derved lærer eleverne ikke blot at mestre teknologi men at leve og eksistere i en mere-end-menneskelig verden. Artiklen afsluttes med en ufærdig liste af forslag til, hvordan faget kan videreudvikles. Håbet er, at listen kan inspirere praktikere i folkeskolen til på den baggrund at udvikle egne ideer og læringsaktiviteter.
