Signage effectivity in Soekarno-Hatta International Airport Terminal 3 / Lalitya Talitha Pinasthika and Mohammad Rizaldi
Get PDFAirport is the main entrance gate to visitors all across the world and it has to be provided with wayfinding to help passengers navigate themselves from one point to another. In 2017, the main airport in Indonesia, Soekarno-Hatta International Airport (SHIA) expanded its terminal and operated Terminal 3 to serve international flights from several airlines and also domestic flights specifically for Garuda Indonesia airlines only. To accommodate the needs to guide these passengers from one point to another, SHIA
provided itself with airport wayfinding that were placed in all areas in many forms of signage. The propose of these signs are to guide passengers with different background,
languages, and nationalities to find their ways inside the terminal building in unanimous understanding of the passenger flow without confusion. An initial research done by observing the all-access area in the departure and arrival floor, the finding indicated that some of the signage provided were misplaced and visually inconsistent from one and another, proved by the amount of visitor that still prefer to ask an officer on duty and also some make-shift signage made by printing paper that were placed in some key decision point areas by the airport authorities. Based on the initial research, further research initiated using qualitative methods by observing as the first person being the passenger that needs to navigate oneself from one point to another in four plots. This research aim is to analyse the effectivity of existed signage provided in SHIA to guide passengers in four different scenarios, involving departure and arrival in both international and domestic area of the terminal. By researching the effectivity of signage placement and information design system in SHIA, it becomes evident that passenger confusion applied mostly in arrival area in both international and domestic wings. The confusion appeared as the result of the misplaced signage, the visual inconsistency, the order of information provided in existing signage, and also the area that aren’t well-lit in some vital points. This research proved the lack of information efficiency occurs in one of the busiest airport in Indonesia and it affected passenger flow, especially in arrival area on both international and domestic wings of the terminal
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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
Identification of 2: 3: 5 Ratio as a Visual Composition Technique on Website and Android Application Mobile User Interface Design
No full textThis paper extends the previous paper written by author for ADADA International Conference 2017 to introducing 2: 3: 5 ratio as a finding in order to seek a simplified approach from 1: 1.618 golden ratio knowns as the golden section. The 2: 3: 5 rasio used to identify the visual of nature propotion and composition in two dimentional picture, the ratio then used to find its property to be indentified further in user interface composition design of a website and android mobile application that presumed to be designed by using the golden section. This research purpose is to find the 2: 3: 5 ratio’s properties and consistancies through visual identification for its future implementation in website and mobile user interface design as composition technique in order to please the eyes the way golden section naturally does with simpler steps
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe 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 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
Developing Basic Structure Grids for Design Layout using 2: 3: 5 Ratio as Visual Composition Technique using Sample of Mobile Application UI Design and Editorial Page Design
No full text2: 3: 5 ratio as a visual composition technique is introduced by author in previous ADADA International Conference 2017 in Gwangju City of South Korea. The ratio’s is simplify complex 1: 1.618 golden ratio composition knowns as the golden section to simple form of composition. This paper follows up the previous exploration in order to deepen the exploration phase of 2: 3: 5 ratio as visual composition technique. The first step in developing phase is experimenting the ratio to find basic grids structure that can be used in any graphic design layout and digital interfaces. The experiment are conducted using the ratio pattern behavior from the previous research to lock some ratios attributes and behavior for standardized output and find possible example from it. The purpose of this research is to give recommendation on how to make simple basic structure grids for graphic design layout using 2: 3: 5 ratio. The possible outcomes of this experiment should be reflecting basic structure grids that commonly used in layout and page compositing design and also presenting another grids possibilities from the ratio’s. This basic composition grids from the ratio’s are also identified in design layout and user interface using selected sample of mobile application UI design and editorial page design
