X10 : extended eco touring coupe / Irfan Azfar Ismail
particularly in urban environments where space and efficiency are paramount. Their small size and nimble handling allow drivers to navigate through congested streets and tight spaces with ease, facilitating smooth and timely transportation. Furthermore, the compact dimensions of these vehicles enhance driver awareness of road conditions, as they offer a clear view of their surroundings, enabling quick responses to potential hazards or obstacles. This heightened situational awareness, coupled with the agility of compact hatchbacks, contributes significantly to the safety of both drivers and passengers during public transport operations. Moreover, the user-friendly safety features integrated into many compact hatchback models further enhance their suitability for public transport and work-related tasks. From advanced driver assistance systems to innovative collision avoidance technologies, these features provide an additional layer of protection for occupants and help mitigate the risks associated with city driving. By prioritizing safety and efficiency, compact hatchback cars not only optimize the transportation experience for drivers but also ensure the timely and reliable arrival of passengers to their destinations. Overall, their compact size, maneuverability, and safety innovations make them indispensable assets in the realm of public transportation and work-related activities

Portable sterilizer: I:A / Irfan Azfar Ismail
Post Covid or long COVID, include shortness of breath, cognitive dysfunction, which people call brain fog, as well as fatigue. Those are the three most common. However, there has been more than 200 symptoms that actually have been reported in patients. So that list is quite long. So other symptoms that patients or people may experience include things such as chest pain, such as trouble speaking, some have described anxiety or depression, muscle aches, fever, loss of smell, loss of taste .. In this covid time, personal hygiene is very necessary for us to take care of, especially important people like teacher. This is because they meet many people at school or outside. I.A. is a portable sterilizer product that use a good material that are more suitable and quality. This product is very suitable for teacher and student to use in the classroom. This product has a UV light to teachers and students at school to prevent germic infections. Designers will focus more on the atmosphere in the classroom. This is because this is the starting point that causes the disease to spread. As my survey only revolves around teachecher and students at school. Most of them are 15-20 years old. 88. 9% of my respondents agree that this product will be able to help people in the post-pandemic era. This portable sterilizer can help many people from being exposed to the spread of disease. The benefit that can be obtained while using this product is we don't have to worry about washing our hands with soap as it has a uv lamp to disinfect the germs that are on the hands

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
