SMART ENVIRONMENT: ANALYSIS OF WATER MANAGEMENT POLICY IN MAKASSAR
Abstract
This article aims to analyze the Makassar government's policies on clean water management in Makassar, one of Indonesia's major cities. Utilizing the concept of a smart environment as an analytical framework, this study investigates whether Makassar's clean water management aligns with the principles of a smart environment. The escalating construction of apartments and hotels has notable consequences for water resources in Makassar. Simultaneously, the city experiences rapid population growth each year, indirectly affecting clean water consumption. This qualitative study employs descriptive analysis, aiming to elucidate and depict the current events concerning the research object. Secondary data forms the basis of this study. Research findings indicate that Makassar's clean water management does not conform to the smart environment concept. This discrepancy can be attributed to inconsistent clean water distribution aggravated by the city's swiftly growing population. Furthermore, the implementation of smart environment principles in managing clean water resources, such as the development of Public Green Open Spaces, waste management, river revitalization, and slum settlement management, remains suboptimal. These aspects significantly impact the establishment of a smart environment, particularly concerning the universal provision of clean water for Makassar's residents.

Artikel ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis kebijakan pemerintah Kota Makassar dalam pengelolaan air bersih di Kota Makassar, yang merupakan salah satu kota besar di Indonesia. Dengan menggunakan konsep lingkungan pintar sebagai alat analisis, penelitian ini mengkaji apakah pengelolaan air bersih di Kota Makassar sesuai dengan konsep lingkungan pintar. Pembangunan apartemen dan hotel yang semakin meningkat memiliki dampak terhadap sumber daya air di Kota Makassar. Di sisi lain, faktor pertumbuhan penduduk, yang setiap tahun mengalami peningkatan pesat secara tidak langsung memengaruhi konsumsi air bersih yang ada. Penelitian ini adalah penelitian kualitatif yang menggunakan analisis deskriptif. Penelitian ini menjelaskan atau menggambarkan peristiwa yang terjadi pada objek penelitian saat ini. Data yang dikumpulkan adalah data sekunder. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pengelolaan air bersih di Kota Makassar belum sesuai konsep lingkungan pintar. Hal ini disebabkan oleh beberapa hal. Pertama, distribusi air bersih di Kota Makassar tidak konsisten, ditambah jumlah penduduk setiap tahun meningkat dengan cepat. Kedua, pengelolaan sumber daya air bersih melalui konsep lingkungan pintar belum dilakukan, hal ini dapat dilihat dari pengembangan Ruang Terbuka Hijau Publik, pengelolaan limbah. Ketiga, revitalisasi sungai hingga pengelolaan permukiman kumuh yang masih belum optimal. Poin-poin ini sangat memengaruhi dalam membangun lingkungan pintar yang berkaitan dengan persediaan air bersih universal untuk masyarakat Kota Makassar.

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
Islamic Music Art of Gamelan Kiai Kanjeng in the Plurality of Indonesia
The Kiai Kanjeng Musical Arts Group has a strategic position and distinct function. It does not only play musical performances but also participate in helping people’s life problems through communication and dialogue in the context of Islamic pluralism. This research was to examine the Kiai Kanjeng Music Group, pluralistic dialogue, and conflict resolution. This study used a descriptive-qualitative approach with a two-stage data collection method. First, a comprehensive literature review to identify relevant sources such as books, journal articles, and research reports related to gamelan music, Islam, and pluralism in Indonesia. Second, an online search to access traditional music archives, gamelan performance recordings, and audiovisual resources related to the Kiai Kanjeng Gamelan Music Group. The findings of this study were: the Kiai Kanjeng Music Group played traditional and modern types of music. During the performance, the group had a dialogue and discussion session with the audiences. Finally, the Kiai Kanjeng Music Group was able to touch on aspects of social life by offering solutions and mediating major conflicts through a special methods
