Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe 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
Ron Baird, 1984 : A Celebration of His First 20 Years of Sculpture
No full textMurray traces the influences upon Baird's outdoor abstract metal sculptures which function within an architectural context. Includes a history of commissioned works (1962-1984), a letter by Farrow and an artist's statement
Design and FPGA implementation of a high-speed transposed Farrow structure for arbitrary resampling in digital receivers
No full textSample rate conversion is a fundamental operation performed in the digital front-end of software-defined radio and all-digital receivers. Within this context, polynomial-based filters, such as the Farrow structure and its variants, are a sound solution when arbitrary resampling is required. This paper presents a design methodology and the results of the implementation on a field-programmable gate array (FPGA) device for a high-speed transposed Farrow structure based on a novel parallel architecture. The implemented architecture supported an input sample rate of up to 2.184 GHz with moderate utilization of the FPGA resources. Furthermore, signal-to-noise ratio and spurious-free dynamic range values higher than 87 dB and 98 dB were reported over a wide range of sample rate conversion factors. Our results may suggest an improvement in the tradeoff between flexibility, complexity and throughput compared with previous work in the field
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe 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
E-books: selecting, work flows, and discovering
No full textFor many libraries e-books are now the preferred format in a wide variety of subject areas. In some cases, it is still a challenge to streamline their selection and acquisition since e-books and print books are rarely released simultaneously and there is typically scant information available on forthcoming e-books. In this session, Emily Asch from Saint Catherine University, and David Farrow from Coutts Information Services will talk about strategies for managing e-book acquisitions. Topics discussed will include a review of available purchasing models for individual libraries and consortia, coordinating print and e-book coverage, creating efficient work flows, and making e-books easily discoverable
Logic, dependencies and specification engineering
No full textIn chapter one we begin with a historical summary of the iterative programming paradigm. This leads on to a discussion of the properties of notations; we evaluate predicate calculus for each given property. Four classifications of program synthesis techniques are briefly discussed. The closing sections describe three classifications of current specification languages. Chapter two describes a new perspective on what it is to prove theorems. For propositional calculus we describe an encoding for a particular form of resolution proof space that can be used to determine the existence or not of a proof in that space. In chapter three we present a specification notation and synthesis algorithm for a rudimentary equational theory of four computable functions over one dimensional vectors. The specifications are expressed in the form of preconditions and postconditions, and the synthesis algorithm attempts to formulate an algorithm for them that both utilises parallelism and satisfies total correctness. In chapter four we present a transformational synthesis algorithm for a class of specifications expressed in first-order logic for specification of functions where the output is defined only in terms of the inputs. We also present a specification refinement methodology that can be used to refine a specification into a form suitable for synthesis. An inherent weakness of the standard verification techniques is discussed in the context of verifying programs that are classified as `safety-critical'.</p
