CLOUD ALGEBRA FOR HANDLING UNSTRUCTURED DATA IN CLOUD DATABASE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
The handling of unstructured data in database management system is very difficult. The managing unstructured data like image, video textual data etc. are not easy task in database system. In this work a concept of cloud algebra introduced to handle unstructured data in CDBMS. The most popular concept, relational algebra is used in relational database management system. The relational algebra is helpful in query processing in SQL. Another concept, Object Algebra which is used in object oriented database management system for query processing. The object algebra is useful to manage the object in object oriented database management system. Now the concept of Cloud computing is introduced in new the era of computer technology. The concept of cloud is also introduced in the field of databases. The cloud database management system is newly introduced in the field of database technology to manage the cloud data. This work introduces the concept of cloud algebra for handling unstructured data the cloud database management system. This work proposed the concept of cloud algebra for query processing for unstructured data in the cloud. The data are spread over the internet as cloud. The creation of new cloud of unstructured data and setting the relationship among various cloud of unstructured data are facilitated by cloud algebra. The updating, deleting and retrieval of unstructured data in cloud are done by cloud algebra. The cloud algebra provides powerful computation while using the query processing in CDBMS for handling unstructured dat
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
