procurement of noncommercial goods in a large company, particularly the possibility
of its improvement and digital transformation. Procurement has one of the key
functions in business and represents an important segment of the supply chain,
affecting the overall success of the organization. It is therefore essential to have a
functional procurement process of high quality. The data for this research was collected
by analyzing scientific and professional literature, internet sources and internal
documentation of a company. Furthermore, crucial information and data were collected
by interviewing twelve employees of a company. Following the analysis of the

Analiza mogućnosti optimizacije procesa nabave netrgovačke robe u velikom poduzeću
No full textU ovomu radu analizirana je mogućnost optimizacije procesa nabave netrgovačke
robe u velikom poduzeću. Nabava je jedna od ključnih funkcija u poslovanju i
povezana je s mnoštvom drugih procesa unutar organizacije, pa je od velike važnosti
da bude što kvalitetnija i funkcionalnija. Kako bi se utvrdili mogući nedostaci i problemi
u odvijanju samoga procesa, a poslije predložila rješenja i mogućnosti optimizacije,
provedeno je istraživanje. U istraživanju je korišteno nekoliko analiza podataka kako
bi rezultati istraživanja bili što kvalitetniji. Podaci su prikupljeni primarnim i
sekundarnim metodama, odnosno SWOT analizom procesa nabave netrgovačke
robe, primjenom metoda komparacije, analizom sekundarnih izvora, web poveznica i
akademskih radova. U istraživanju su provedeni i intervjui u kojima je sudjelovalo
petero ispitanika. Svi ispitanici su zaposlenici u poduzeću, a na temelju rezultata
provedenog istraživanja, donesen je zaključak i predložena su rješenja za optimizaciju
procesa. Autor je provedenim istraživanjem utvrdio kako je postojeći proces nabave
kvalitetno postavljen i funkcionalan, no ne prati suvremena rješenja koja se danas
mogu primijeniti zahvaljujući novimtehnološkim dostignućima. Također je zaključeno
da je potrebno uvesti novu službu centralne nabave netrgovačke robe, te digitalizirati
korake nabave kako bi se ubrzali i upotpunili nedostaci koji stvaraju određene
probleme u odvijanju procesa.In this paper, the possibility of optimizing the process of procurement of noncommercial
goods in a large company is analyzed. Procurement is one of the key
functions in business and is associated with many other processes within the
organization, it is therefore essential to have a process of high quality and as functional
as possible. In order to identify possible shortcomings and problems in the process
itself, and later to suggest solutions and optimization possibilities, a research was
conducted. Several data analyzes were used in the research in order to ensure the
most valid and reliable results. Data were collected by primary and secondary methods
– SWOT analysis of the process of procurement of non-commercial goods was
conducted, comparison methods were applied and secondary sources, web links and
academic papers were analysed. Interviews were conducted with five company
employees. Based on the research results, a conclusion was reached and solutions
for process optimization were proposed. The author's research established that the
existing procurement process is well set up and functional, but does not follow modern
solutions that can be applied today thanks to new technological advances. It was also
concluded that it is necessary to introduce a new central procurement service for noncommercial
goods, and to digitize the procurement steps in order to accelerate and
complete the shortcomings that create certain problems in the process
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
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
