Collective Management of Copyright and the Related Rights for Musical Works Online Use
數位化技術普遍之後,實體音樂漸漸被數位音樂取代,而數位音樂流行之際,大多為盜版MP3音樂,少見合法數位音樂,且使用者必須自己蒐集符合喜好之音樂,即使有網站提供數位音樂資料庫,未取得合法授權之音樂占大多數。時至今日,數位音樂依然盛行,網際網路技術發達以及行動裝置普遍之下,大眾對於數位音樂與行動裝置之結合相當滿意,因而數位音樂相關服務更加蓬勃發展,一改過去盜版音樂作風,越來越多提供合法線上音樂服務之平台,並提供多元服務內容,其商業模式更是五花八門。這些合法線上音樂平台,為了避免違反著作權法招致民刑事責任,必須向著作權利人取得授權方可合法利用,然而,基於著作權授權分散特性且著作權人可能四散各地,著作權集體管理團體介入著作權利人與利用人之間,代替著作權利人處理授權相關事宜,如授權條件談判、收取授權金、監督授權後續之利用狀況等。對提供線上音樂服務之利用人來說,目前著作權集體管理團體運作實務、我國著作權法及著作權集體管理團體專法能否提供相關安全且便利的數位音樂授權機制,皆為其所關注之重點,本論文將深入探討分析之,並延伸至數位音樂跨國授權等問題研究。 本論文一共分為六章,第一章為緒論。第二章介紹著作權集體管理團體基本概念,包含著作權集體管理團體類型、功能、管制必要性、運作方式等,以及與著作權利人、利用人之關係,並介紹我國、美國等著作權集體管理團體實務發展現況,另外介紹歐盟指令針對會員國之著作權集體管理團體規範。第三章則是簡介數位音樂線上服務機制,說明數位音樂之特性、消費特色等,為更深入瞭解數位音樂線上服務發展潛能,介紹其經營架構、商業模式及衍生服務等,最後討論線上音樂現況及未來。第四章論述網路數位時代下對著作權集體管理團體之觀察,重點主要放在網路以及數位化技術對著作權集體管理機制之影響,進而分析因應此衝擊著作權集體管團體之角色應如何轉變。接續第四章,第五章試著回應上一章提出之問題,並特別針對著作權集體管理機制可採用之數位管理措施為分析討論,以及我國數個著作權集體管理團體間應如何整合,以智慧財產局目前推行之單一窗口試行整合為例,而在網路數位化時代數位音樂跨國界授權也將成為未來發展趨勢,故而特別針對歐盟指令關於跨國界授權為介紹及分析。第六章為結論,歸納所發現的實務問題並提出未來展望,目前網際網路對於著作權授權之衝擊、影響已經逐漸浮上檯面,然我國對於著作授權之整合、系統化尚在實驗嘗試階段,此議題將來不可免地成為著作權集體管理之關鍵
Newsletter #01: Database of medieval Chinese texts (DMCT)

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
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
