PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION OF PROPOFOL
The present provides a simple, convenient and time-efficient process for the preparation of propofol. Particularly, the present invention provides an improved process for the preparation of propofol using a heterocyclic base for the decarboxylation reaction. The present invention provides a time-efficient process for the preparation of propofol with high yield and purity
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
Ein Guru in Buchgestalt : der Kult der Sikh-Religion
Die Heilige Schrift der Gemeinde der Sikh ist Adi Sri Guru Grantha Sahibaji oder „der am Anfang stehende Guru in Gestalt des Buches". Guru Govind Singh (1675-1708) setzte kurz vor seinem Tod eine erweiterte Fassung des Adi Grantha als seinen Nachfolger im Guruamt ein. Der Adi Grantha ist ein poetisches Werk, das keinerlei Prosa enthält. Autoren der verschiedenen Teile der Schrift gehörten nur zum Teil der Sikh-Gemeinde an: Guru Nanak, der Gründer der Religion der Sikh, sowie seine Nachfolger Angad, Amar Das, Ram Das, Arun, Teg Bahadur und Govind Singh. Aus anderen Religionen stammen die sogenannten Bhagats (Fromme) wie der islamische Sufi Kabir, ein Weber von Beruf, oder der hochberühmte Krishnadichter Sur Das. Schließlich zählen noch einige Bhatts oder Barden wie Haribans oder Ganga zu den Mitverfassern. Zu dieser multireligösen Verfasserschaft tritt als weitere Besonderheit dieser Heiligen Schrift ihre Vielsprachigkeit. Der Urtext des Adi Grantha ist in seinen verschiedenen Teilen in unterschiedlichen Sprachen und Dialekten abgefaßt (Hindi Sanskrit, Marathi, Persisch, Arabisch usw.). Zwar waren Guru Nanak und seine Nachfolger Panjabi; dennoch sprachen sie ein Idiom, das nach E. Trumpp eine Mischung aus Hindi und Panjabi war. Guru Govind Singh jedoch schrieb in reinem Hindi. Das Alphabet des Adi Grantha ist das Gurmukhi, eine Schrift, die Guru Nanak für die Abfassung seines Schriftteils entwickelt haben soll. Der Adi Grantha setzt sich aus liturgischen Gebrauchstexten, aus Psalmen und Preisgesängen zusammen
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
