URBAN GEOMETRY: CITY SHAPE AND SPATIAL LAYOUT OF 6 INDONESIAN GOVERNMENT CENTERS
Indonesia is one of the fastest-growing countries. It has about 50% of the population in the ASEAN region. The country is currently evolving and changing. The recent highlight is the country's plan to create a new capital city – moving from the megalopolitan Jakarta in the Java island to a new remote area in East Kalimantan. However, research on Indonesian cities remains very limited to provide an evidence base for planning a new capital city. A fundamental question arises: Should we plan Indonesia's new capital city following western models, or should we plan the city using traditional Indonesian city patterns? This paper examines urban geometry to show similarities and differences in the government centers in 6 Indonesian provincial capitals. They are Jakarta, Bandung, Medan, Palembang, Surabaya, and the Special Region of Yogyakarta. The six capital cities will be analyzed and categorized using street grid patterns, street centrality, built-up area and open space distribution, and government center distances. This systematic and quantitative comparison of Cities will define the underlying traits and footprint in these Indonesian cities, and the findings could be considered suggestions and guidelines for the new Indonesian capital city. This study utilizes methods and measures using automation techniques to analyze and classify Indonesian government centers based on street networks and urban geometry. The methods include land use recognition techniques using satellite images; OpenStreetMap (OSM) processed using OSMnx; GIS multi-platform applications to run the spatial analysis. On the one hand, the study should contribute to urban design and capital city planning in Indonesia. On the other hand, it should provide methods for comparative studies of cities in developing countries

ANALISIS POLA KONFIGURASI RUANG TERBUKA KOTA DENGAN PENGGUNAAN METODA SPACE SYNTAX SEBAGAI SPATIAL LOGIC DAN SPACE USE
ABSTRAK. Pengembangan kota Palembang terus berkembang sejak adanya kegiatan Pekan Olah Raga Nasional PON dan juga SEA Games yang dilaksanakan di kota Palembang. Saat ini Palembang terus berbenah diri dengan menyosong dilaksanakannya kegiatan olah raga Asean Games di tahun 2018 ini. Berbagai pengembangan fisik kota dari dibangunan jaringan LRT (light rapid transit), pembangunan pusat perbelanjaan dan juga hotel-hotel baru hingga peremajaan dan pembangunan ruang terbuka untuk menampung kegiatan spatial dan kegiatan baik masyarakat kota Palembang itu sendiri ataupun untuk kepentingan pariwisata kota Palembang. Perkembangan ruang kota tersebut dirasakan peneliti dikerjakan dengan terburu-buru dan tidak disertai dengan perencanaan yang matang, sehingga menghasilkan produk yang tidak maksimal. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk meneliti konfigurasi ruang terbuka yang ada di kota Palembang, dan lokasi dari penelitian tersebut adalah ruang terbuka yang sangat terkenal di kota palembang yaitu ruang terbuka kawasan Benteng Kuto Besak. Di dalam ruang terbuka BKB tersebut terdapat beberapa elemen yang tidak sesuai dengan konfigurasi ruang terbuka yang baik, dan ditinjau dari analisis space syntax yang berguna untuk mengukur kualitas spatial, terlihat bahwa di ruang terbuka BKB tersebut tercipta beberapa ruang-ruang mati dan elemen di kawasan tersebut yang cenderung melemahkan kualitas spatial yang ada. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk melihat ruang gerak yang wajar di ruang terbuka BKB, di dalam arsitektur hal tersebut dikenal dengan istilah spatial logic yang berguna untuk melihat arah pengembangan ruang terbuka agar dapat dimanfaatkan secara maksimal bagi space use konfigurasi ruang terbuka kota Palembang.

ABSTRACT. The development of Palembang city has arisen since the National Sporting Event known as PON and also the Southeast Asian games known as SEA games thas is being held in the town. Nowadays the city has transformed itself and constantly changing for the preparation to hold another international sporting event known as Asian games in the year 2018. There are many development that is being done to the city from the building of the new infrastructure of Light Rapid Transit rails across the city and also the development of new shopping malls and even new hotels to the development of the towns open space that is a spatial spot that holds the public event and also has the particular needs to be developed to support the cities tourism. The researcher felt that development that is being done in the city is done carelessly and without careful planning and produces poor spatial products. This research purpose is to analyze the open space configuration carefully and the place that the research is being carried out is a well known open space in Palembang which is the open space of Benteng Kuto Besak, or that is well known as BKB. The elements inside BKB is not appropriate to the spatial configuration of good public space, and through the space syntax analysis to see the spatial quality we can see that there are dead spaces throughout the BKB area and the spatial elements inside the BKB are responsible for them. The purpose of this research is to understand the natural flow of space and to see the spatial logic that is intended for the BKB space. Through the spatial logic, we can also see the best space use designed for the BKB open space configuration pattern in Palembang.

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
