    Num mundo globalizado, em constante mudança, onde a exigência e a competitividade são cada vez maiores, o mundo empresarial debate-se com a necessidade de otimizar os recursos que possuem, tendo em vista uma maior eficiência, produtividade e gestão de tempo, a fim de potenciar maiores lucros. É neste contexto que a informática, com os seus recursos tecnológicos (aplicações, softwares e ferramentas online), assume cada vez mais relevância simplificando processos e otimizando recursos (logísticos, financeiros e humanos). Dado ao mercado de trabalho altamente competitivo nos dias de hoje, as empresas valorizam cada vez mais o processo de recrutamento e seleção, uma vez que os consultores representam o seu principal ativo. Contudo, os processos de recrutamento e seleção estão cada vez mais demorados dada a afluência de pessoas no mercado com a formação necessária para desempenhar as funções. Esta problemática remete-nos à questão do problema: De que modo podemos aumentar a produtividade dos processos de recrutamento e seleção? O Applicant Tracking System (ATS) é uma das áreas resultante da aplicação da TI na Gestão de Recursos Humanos (GRH). A principal função de um ATS é fornecer uma localização central e uma base de dados para os processos de recrutamento da empresa. Os ATS são desenvolvidos com o intuito de melhorar a gestão de carreira dos candidatos tanto internos como para contratações externas. Foi neste contexto que este projeto foi desenvolvido na empresa Winprovit, criando-se uma nova funcionalidade referente ao recrutamento de consultores, permitindo a obtenção de dados específicos, de forma rápida, economizando tempo. O projeto integrou-se no tipo de recrutamento externo (o mais utilizado pelas empresas) com o objetivo de ajudar a selecionar candidatos no mercado de trabalho para eventuais vagas abertas na Winprovit destinando-se a facilitar e melhorar o processo de seleção/avaliação dos mesmos a um certo posto de trabalho, por parte do RH/GE (Gestão de Equipas), potenciando a agregação de novos talentos e mais inovação. Consistiu na criação de uma automatização assíncrona de questionários enviados para os candidatos, ficando o registo correspondente da nota final e das respostas escolhidas para a empresa. Apesar de já haver algumas ferramentas que permitem a geração automática de questionários, existem certas limitações em termos de integração no produto “TallentIT” desejado pela empresa, pelo facto de ser um projeto à parte criado em ASP.NET Web Forms. Para além do desenvolvimento de tal funcionalidade, também foi realizada uma parte de testes automáticos para a mesma, sendo que a razão por detrás desta escolha está relacionada com as vantagens que a automação traz, nomeadamente: a eficácia de custos, a poupança de tempo e a redução da quantidade de trabalho para os funcionários, sendo estas das maiores prioridades atuais para uma empresa. A automação de testes já foi realizada em Selenium e desenvolvida sobre a linguagem python com o intuito de testar desde a geração do questionário automático ao envio e verificação da nota final, assim como o armazenamento das respostas selecionadas em si, uma vez submetido o questionário em causa. A mesma automação foi desenvolvida em duas etapas: um teste automático capaz de testar todas as funcionalidades e um teste dividido em múltiplas partes, tendo estas como objetivo verificar se determinada funcionalidade está a trabalhar corretamente, em tempo real.In a globalized world, in constant change, where demand and competitiveness are increasing, the business world is struggling with the need to optimize the resources they have, with a view to greater efficiency, productivity and time management, in order to drive higher profits. It is in this context that Computer Science, with its technological resources (applications, software and online tools), assumes increasing importance, simplifying processes and optimizing resources (logistics, financial and human). Given this reality, companies have already realized that they cannot do without IT tools. Given the highly competitive labour market nowadays, companies increasingly value the recruitment and selection process, since consultants represent their main asset. However, the recruitment and selection processes are increasingly time-consuming given the influx of people in the market, with the necessary training to perform the functions. This problem leads us to the problem question: How can we increase the productivity of the recruitment and selection processes? The Applicant Tracking System (ATS) is one of the areas resulting from the application of IT in Human Resource Management (HRM). The main function of an ATS is to provide a central location and database for a company's recruitment process. ATSs are developed to improve the career management of candidates. It was in this context that this project was developed in the company Winprovit, creating a new functionality related to the recruitment of employees, allowing the obtaining of specific data, quickly, saving time. The project was integrated into the type of external recruitment (the most used by companies) in order to help select candidates in the labor market for any vacancies open at Winprovit, with the aim of facilitating and improving the selection/evaluation process for them, to a certain job, by the HR/GE (Team Management), boosting the aggregation of new talents and more innovation. It consisted in the creation of an asynchronous automation of questionnaires sent to the candidate, with the corresponding record of the final grade and responses chosen by the candidate to the company. Although there are already some tools that allow the automatic generation of questionnaires, there were certain limitations in terms of integration in the “TallentIT” product desired by the company, due to the fact that it is a separate project created in ASP.NET Web Forms. In addition to the development of such functionality, a part of automatic tests was also carried out for it, and the reason behind this choice is related to the advantages that automation brings, namely: cost effectiveness, time savings and the reduction in the amount of work for employees, these being one of the highest current priorities for a company. Test Automation has already been performed in Selenium, developed on the python language, in order to test from the generation of the automatic questionnaire to the sending and verification of the final grade, as well as the storage of the selected answers themselves, once the questionnaire in question has been submitted. The same automation was developed in two stages: an automatic test capable of testing all the features and a test divided into multiple parts, with the aim of verifying whether a given feature is working correctly, in real time

    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

    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

    No full text
    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

    Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902

    No full text
    In 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.
