MANAJEMEN KINERJA KELOMPOK USAHA PRODUKSI WINGKO SINGKONG (WINGSING) DI KELURAHAN KANDRI SEMARANG
Get PDFCassava Wingko (Wingsing) is a traditional Indonesian food. Wingko is a kind of cake made from cassava, coconut and other ingredients. Wingsing has an important role for economic growth in the Kandrivillage. More foreign tourists are coming to the village Kandri which is a gateway to travel in wadung Jatibarang as wadug Jatibarang in villages Kandri were officially opened. The purpose of this activity was to: improve the quality and capacity of the Wingsing products through improving the production and the management aspects of the industry partners. The outcomes of this activity were; (1) increased understanding of the partner about management concepts and hygienicproduction techniques of Wingsing. (2) marketable Wingsing packaging techniques, (3) writing in national journals, or an accredited journal, or an international journal about Wingsing productionin the village Kandri. The methods used in the IbM consisted of (1) observation to identify the the problems faced bythe Wingsing producers, (2) a discussion meeting with the Wingsing producers to agree on the techniques to overcome the problems, (3) counseling of hygienictechniques of Wingsing production, (6) integrated training and assistance to improve the quality and quantity of products, marketableWingsingpackaging techniques, improved marketing system of Wingsing. The results of this activity indicated an improvement quality and quantity of Wingsing production, which included the results of a more marketable packaging design, understanding about more hygienicWingsing production process. The indirect impact of this activity was on the increase of production and revenue of Wingsing small business venture. Furthermore, the results of activities has been written in an article and have been sent to International Journal of Research in Higher Education published by Sciedu Press in Canada

TESTING OF PROCESSING OIL WASTE TO BE BIODIESEL AS A FUEL ALTERNATIVE MOTOR DIESEL
No full textThe objectives of this research are to desain and to test the biodiesel processing unit from waste cooking oil, to examine the characteristics of processed biodiesel, and to apply the biodiesel on diesel engine to ensure that there will not be a problem on the tested diesel engine. This research is an experiment research carried out by several steps, designing waste cooking-biodiesel processing unit, examining the characteristics ofbiodiesel made, and applying the biodiesel on diesel engine. The result showed that the biodtesel processing unit that was made could work well to produce biodiesel. The biodiesel characteristics are comparable with diesel oil and the biodiesel is applicable on diesel engine without any problems accured. Keywords: biodiesel, waste cooking oil, alternative fuel, diesel engin
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
