    Making the dough is a critical point in the production of fish crackers. Target partners in making the dough by hand, so that the resulting production capacity is low, the texture is not uniform and the price is cheap. The purpose of this activity is to provide skills to use the dough machine to the target partners, improve product characteristics, and increase the capacity and cost efficiency of fish cracker production through the use of a dough machine. The target partner is Mrs. Siti Saroh, the owner of UKM. Maharani in Weru village, Paciran sub-district, Lamongan district. The specifications of the mixing machine used in this activity have as many as two moving stirring spoons and the driving machine is in the form of an electric dynamo which is powered by ½ HP (370 Watt). The ingredients for making crackers are tapioca flour, a mixture of tonang fish and Balak fish, garlic, salt, sugar, and flavoring. This dedication method is in the form of training in the use of a dough machine to partners, product characterization and analysis of production cost efficiency. The results of this activity can improve partners' skills in using the dough machine, production capacity increases 87.5%, the product has a flatter surface, does not crack and when fried can expand 67%, and the efficiency of production costs by 84.64%. As a conclusion, the use of mixing machines can increase the capacity and cost efficiency of fish cracker production

    Kademangan is a shrimp paste production center in the Probolinggo municipality. The shrimp paste made from this fish processing center is of lower quality than similar products on the market. The varying size of the raw materials is a significant problem in shrimp paste production in this business hub. This activity aimed to improve the quality of the shrimp paste product by introducing and enhancing the partners' skills in using grinders and shrimp powder for rebon shrimp in making rebon shrimp paste. The method of this service activity consists of training, monitoring, and evaluation of the activities. This activity showed that the partners had received training on the production of shrimp paste and its quality and the use of grinding machines and machines for boiling shrimp meal. During the partner monitoring period, it became apparent that the partners had switched the technology from manual production of shrimp paste to machine production. The evaluation results show that the partners are familiar with grinding and grinding machines in making Rebon shrimp paste. The resulting products are of higher quality than those made before the partners used the shrimp grinding shrimp flour machines. The conclusion is that the use of grinding and flour machines for rebon shrimp by partners has increased the production capacity by three times and increased the quality of the rebon shrimp paste

    This pacific whiteleg shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) enlargement business has the name PT. Mitra Raya Cemerlang was established in 2017 in Koloran Hamlet, Klaseman Village, Gending District, Probolinggo Regency, East Java. This study aims to describe the marketing mix and analyze the business’s financial feasibility. Types of quantitative and qualitative research used a purposive sampling technique. The data analysis method used is marketing mix analysis and business feasibility by calculating short-term and long-term investment criteria. The results of the study indicate that in terms of the marketing mix, it is relatively simple to carry out directly at the place of business. Then in terms of business feasibility, in the short term, it is profitably seen from the R/C Ratio value of 3,785, BEP unit 31,533 kg, and BEP sales Rp. 2,459,591,932.98, and RTC 62.44% while in the long term it is feasible to see from the NPV value of Rp. 36,230,109,107, Net B/C Ratio 4.02, IRR 109%, and PP 1 where the sensitivity level is said to be not too sensitive

    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

    Get PDF
    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

    Get PDF
    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
