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
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
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
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

Hasil analisis untuk persamaan kedua secara simultan (Uji F) jumlah dana pihak ketiga dan penyaluran pembiayaan berpengaruh signifikan, dengan nilai F hitung > F tabel = 3,758 > 3,316, besarnya pengaruh besaran dana pihak ketiga dan penyaluran pembiayaan perbankan syariah terhadap pertumbuhan ekonomi sebesar 20,6%, sehingga besarnya dana pihak ketiga dan penyaluran pembiayaan perbankan syariah berpengaruh terhadap pembiayaan sektor UMKM dan pertumbuhan ekonomi di Provinsi Banten .
 
Analisis Produktivitas Dan Aplikasi Lean Manufacturing Pada Divisi Produksi Pengecoran (Workshop I) PT. Barata Indonesia
Divisi Produksi Pengecoran (Workshop I) di PT. Barata Indonesia memiliki permasalahan yang paling kompleks disbanding divisi-divisi lainnya. Penggunaan sumber daya produksi seringkali tidak efisien sehingga mengakibatkan rendanya produktivitas. Penelitian ini akan mengidentifikasi pemborosan (waste ) yang teijadi dalam proses produksi yang mengganggu tingkat produktivitas. Penelitian diawali dengan pengukuran produktivitas menggunakan metode Objective Matrix (OMAX) berdasarkan beberapa kriteria produktivitas parsial. Selanjutnya, pendekatan lean manufacturing dimanfaatkan untuk mengidentifikasi jenis-jenis waste yang paling banyak teijadi. Metode-metode yang digunakan antara lain: Process Activity Mapping, Supply Chain Responce Matrix dan Quality Filter Mapping. Kemudian dianalisa akar penyebab pemborosan tersebut yang kemudian diberikan rekomendasi perbaikan guna meminimasi pemborosan yang teijadi sehingga produktivitas perusahaan meningkat. Hasil pengukuran dengan menggunakan OMAX menunjukkan indeks produktivitas bulanan masing - masing kriteria mengalami penurunan di Bulan November dan Februari. Sedangkan pendekatan lean manufacturing memmjukkan waste yang paling banyak teijadi adalah defect dan waiting. Beberapa rekomendasi perbaikan, misalnya sistem paralel pattern & core making, pemberian papan patuh SOP, alat bantu penataan dalam furnace, melakukan quenching & tempering dengan rentang waktu kurang dari 8 jam, dan mempeibaiki sistem preventive maintenance guna meminimasi waste yang teijadi sehingga produktivitas perusahaan meningkat.

Foundry Division of PT. Barata Indonesia demonstrates the highest level of complexity compared to other divisions. The use of reseources is often inefficient which potentially affect the low productivity level. This study tried to identify any waste which probably occured in the production process that might bother the level of
productivity. The study began with measuring productivity by using Objective Matrix (OMAX) based on some criteria of partial productivity. Subsequently, an approach of lean manufacturing was utilized to identify type of waste which mostly occured. The methods used here are Process Activity Mapping, Supply Chain Response Matrix and Quality Filter Mapping as well. Finally, the root cause of each waste was analyzed in order to design a proper recomendation for minimizing waste and increasing productivity. The result of OMAX repreasented the monthly productivity index for each criterion declined on November and February while lean manufacturing resulted the largest amount of waste are defect and waiting. Some recommendations for instance : parallel system ofpattern & core making, giving the SOP compliance board, structuring tools in the furnace, do quenching & tempering with the time span of less than eight hours, and improve preventive maintenance system are proposed in the final chapter in order to decrease waste and improve productivity
