Create a data management plan (with RDMO)
No full textSlides from WORKSHOP - Introduction to Humanities Research Data Management (Part 2 hands-on, Jochen Klar) held at Luxembourg Open Science Forum, 15.11.2018
Reusable, machine-readable data are one pillar of Open Science (Open Scholarship). Serving this data
reuse aspect requires from researchers to carefully document their methods and to take good care of
their research data. Due to this paradigm shift, for Humanities and Heritage researchers, activities and
issues around planning, organizing, storing, and sharing data and other research results and products
play an increasing role. Therefore, during two workshop sessions Ulrike Wuttke and Jochen Klar will dive
with the participants into a number of topics, technologies, and methods that are connected with
Humanities Research Data Management. The participants will acquire knowledge and skills that will
enable them to draft their own executable research data management plan that will support the
production of reusable, machine-readable data, a key prerequisite for conducting effective and
sustainable projects. Topics that will be covered are theoretical reflections on the role of data within
humanities research and cultural heritage studies, opportunities and challenges of eHumanities and
eResearch, implementing the FAIR principles and relevant standards, and basics of Data Management
Planning.
Learning outcomes: Participants of this workshop will gain an overview about issues related to
Humanities Research Data Management and learn about relevant tools and information resources.
Through a hands-on session, the participants will be especially equipped and skilled to draft the nucleus
of their own Research Data Management Plan.
Structure of the workshop: The workshop will consist of two sessions. In the morning session, the
basics of Humanities Research Data Management will be discussed with the participants using examples
from various humanities backgrounds and projects. The afternoon session will be dedicated to handson
data management planning using the data management planning tool RDMO. This supervised
practical exercise will offer the participants the opportunity to learn by doing. Participants are
encouraged to discuss data management issues related to their own projects (or project ideas) ideas
and to contact the trainers beforehand.
Audience: The workshop sessions are aimed at Digital Humanities and Cultural Heritage researchers
and practitioners with who wish to learn how to enable good Research Data Management and the
sharing and reuse of data from a humanities point of view. No special previous knowledge or
programming skills are required.
TRAINERS
Ulrike Wuttke (Doctor of Literature, Universiteit Gent 2012, [email protected]) is a medievalist and
textual scholar by training. She contributes to projects and networks in digital preservation and digital
arts and humanities via groups such as the Working Group Data Centres of the Verband Digital
Humanities im deutschsprachigen Raum (deputy convenor). Her professional activities focus on training
and personal counselling on data management, open science and Digital Humanities as well as public
relations, communication and outreach. She joined the PARTHENOS project and FH Potsdam in April
2017. She leads task 7.2 (Implementation of the Training plan) of the H2020 project PARTHENOS. She
coordinates the further development of its online training platform, the PARTHENOS Training Suite, and
the PARTHENOS eHumanities and eHeritage Webinar Series.
Jochen Klar (PhD in numerical cosmology, University of Potsdam 2012, [email protected]) works in the area of
data management and eScience at the Leibniz Institute for Astrophysics Potsdam (AIP) and takes part in
various data related projects, both in astrophysics as well as in interdisciplinary contexts. He was
involved in the development of several astronomical data portals (e.g. RAVE, APPLAUSE, CosmoSim,
GREGOR). For the DFG projects RADIESCHEN and DFG-VRE, he investigated the sustainability and the
organizational structure of data management and virtual research environments in Germany. He is the
main developer of the Daiquiri framework for the publication of astronomical databases and of the
RDM-planning tool RDMO (Research Data Management Organiser).

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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
Full text linkWe 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
Full text linkWe 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

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
No full textIn Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
