DEVELOPMENT OF DOCKING STATION FOR MARGENTO mPOS TERMINALS
No full textDiplomsko delo opisuje zasnovo in realizacijo priklopne postaje za plačniške terminale Margetno mPOS. Jedro priklopne postaje predstavlja mikrokrmilnik ARM NXP LPC 2366.
Naloga priklopne postaje je napajanje terminala in s tem polnjenje baterije ter zagotavljanje komunikacijske povezave med terminalom in procesnim centrom preko interneta. Terminal se na priklopno postajno poveže preko serijske povezave RS232, ko je terminal prisoten na priklopni postaji, v primeru pa, ko terminal ni prisoten, se poveže preko brezžične povezave s pomočjo modula Zigbee.
Cilj diplomske naloge je zagotoviti robusten in zanesljiv sistem, ki bo skrbel za hitro in nemoteno komunikacijo med plačilnim terminalom Margento mPOS ter procesnim centrom.This diploma work describes research, development and realization of docking station for Margneto mPOS payment terminals. Docking station is responsible for providing power to the terminal, for recharging batteries and to provide Ethernet link to the Margento Procesing Centers.
Terminal connects to docking station by wired and wireless communication. Wired communication is in use when terminal in present on the docking station. If customer removes the terminal, communication is automatically switched to wireless communication via Zigbee module.
The objective of this diploma work is development and realization of robust and fast data transfer between the terminal and the Margento processing centers via Ethernet
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe 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
No full text“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
No full textWe 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
No full textWe 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
DEVELOPMENT OF VOUCHER PRINTING APPLICATION FOR MARGENTO POINT OF SALE TERMINAL
No full textV diplomskem delu predstavljamo razvoj projekta na zahtevo podjetja Margento R&D d.o.o., ki se ukvarja z razvojem celovitih rešitev na področju mobilnega ter brezgotovinskega plačevanja. Cilj je bil razviti aplikacijo za prodajni terminal mPOS T3000, ki bo omogočala tiskanje vrednostnih bonov v velikih količinah.
Da smo lahko zadovoljili dane zahteve, smo v sistem vpeljali iglični tiskalnik, ki za komunikacijo koristi serijsko povezavo. Zaradi varnosti je ta povezava šifrirana. Ker ima takšna aplikacija zelo malo skupnega z originalno aplikacijo mPOS T3000, je bilo treba opraviti korenite spremembe ter uvesti nove funkcionalnosti, kot so nadgradnja grafičnega uporabniškega vmesnika, implementacija aplikacijskega protokola za komunikacijo s strežnikom, implementacija prenosnega ter aplikacijskega protokola med terminalom in tiskalnikom ter šifriranje podatkov med terminalom in tiskalnikom. Zaradi številnih funkcionalnosti, ki jih mora aplikacija opravljati sočasno, je bil implementiran operacijski sistem, ki omogoča izvajanje opravil v realnem času.In this diploma work we present a project requested by Margento R&D d.o.o. company, which deals with the development of mobile and cashless payment solutions. The aim of the work was to develop an application for the point of sale terminal named mPOS T3000, which will allow printing of large quantities of vouchers.
In order to meet the given demands, a dot matrix printer was incorporated into the system. The communication type is serial and encrypted due to security reasons. This application has very little in common with the original mPOS T3000 application, therefore, radical changes and new implementations were needed, such as the upgrade of the graphical user interface, the implementation of the application protocol used for server communications and the implementation of the transmission and application protocol for terminal and printer communications. Due to multiple parallel functionalities there was also the need for a real time operating system

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
