Get PDFABSTRAKINOVASI PEMBUATAN PEMPEK BAGI PELAKU USAHA KECIL PEMPEK DI PALEMBANG. Bertujuan untuk mensosialisasikan dan memberikan bimbingan teknis dan manajemen inovasi pembuatan pempek berupa tepung pempek bagi pelaku usaha pempek di kota Palembang. Pempek dikenal sebagai makanan tradisional kota Palembang yang dibuat dari campuran ikan giling dan tepung tapioca dan disajikan dengan cuko pempek. Keterbatasan SDM yang terampil dalam pembuatan pempek, dan keterbatasan umur simpan pempek, menjadikan pempek terbatas untuk didistribusikan ke daerah yang lebih luas. Pada tahun 2016 (Murtado) berhasil menciptkan tepung pempek sebagai bahan pembuatan pempek yang terbuat dari ikan giling dan tepung tapioka yang diolah menjadi campuran kering homogen. Dengan tepung pempek, membuat pempek menjadi lebih mudah dan cepat. Umur simpan tepung pempek mencapai dua tahun sehingga penanganan dan distribusi lebih mudah dan sederhana. Kegiatan berupa pembinaan langsung pembuatan tepung pempek bagi mitra yang ditunjuk dan bersedia mengikuti kegiatan ini. Kegiatan dilakukan dengan lima tahap, yaitu: 1) seleksi calon peserta, 2) tatap muka penjelasan sekitar tepung pempek, 3) pembuatan tepung pempek dan 4) pembuatan pempek berbahan tepung pempek. Setelah 7 hari melakukan pembinaan dan pelatihan, dihasilkan peserta yang terampil secara teknis dan minat yang semakin besar terhadap pengembangan usaha pempek berupa tepung pempek. Kata kunci: Pempek; inovasi; usaha kecil. ABSTRACTPEMPEK-MAKING INNOVATIONS FOR SMALL BUSINESS PLAYERS OF PEMPEK IN PALEMBANG. Aiming to socialize and provide technical guidance and management of innovation in making pempek in the form of pempek flour for pempek entrepreneurs in Palembang city. Pempek is known as a traditional Palembang food made from a mixture of ground fish and tapioca flour and served with cuko pempek. Limited skilled human resources in making pempek, and limited shelf life of pempek, make it limited for pempek to be distributed to a wider area. In 2016 (Murtado) succeeded in creating pempek flour as an ingredient for making pempek which is made from ground fish and tapioca flour which is processed into a homogeneous dry mixture. With pempek flour, making pempek becomes easier and faster. The shelf life of pempek flour is up to two years, making handling and distribution easier and simpler. Activities in the form of direct guidance for making pempek flour for partners who are appointed and willing to participate in this activity. The activity was carried out in five stages, namely: 1) selection of prospective participants, 2) face-to-face explanation about pempek flour, 3) making pempek flour and 4) making pempek made from pempek flour. After 7 days of coaching and training, participants who were technically skilled and had greater interest in developing the pempek business in the form of pempek flour were produced.

Ability of Coating Materials in Maintaining Empek-Empek Quality during Vacum Storage
Get PDFPempek is Palembang people traditional food made from basic material of minced fish meat and tapioka flour with a distinctive taste. Empek empek is served with a sauce called as "cuko empek-empek". The shelf life of empek-empek is very limited. Various studies of empek-empek are conducted more on attention to improve the quality and flavor. Among of them is the addition of carrageenan (Murtado, Dasir and Ade Verayani 2014) and wheat flour porridge (Murtado Danade Verayani, 2015). The addition of Carrageenan on making empek-empek, in addition to improving the taste, it also extends the shelf life of up to 4 days at cold temperatures. The limitation of the shelf life is an obstacle in the distribution for a long time. Palembang people usually treat empek-empek when shipping by smearing it beforehand with oil or tapioca before being packed. This treatment is able to maintain the shelf life of empek-empek up to 2 days during transport at room temperature. Growed fungi that have yellow color, wet, sticky and bad smell are damage types in empek-empek commonly occur after transportation and storage. Vacuum packaging is proven to maintain the shelf life in various products.The study aims to determine the shelf life of empek-empek due to treatment of types of coating materials, namely oil, tapioca and margarine. Empek-empek is first smeared with oil, tapioca and margarine. Then, it is vacuum packed using Polyethylene with a thickness of 0.05 mm. After vacuumed, then stored in cold temperatures. Parameters measured are protein level, moisture content, degree of whiteness, smell, crispness and total appearance. The results show that the shelf life of empek-empek with the coating material of palm oil is 12 days, tapioca coating is 6 days, margarine coating is 9 days and without coating material is 6 days.

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
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

The Thursday Murder Club: Launching a megabrand author - a publishing case study
Get PDFIn 2020, the Christmas book charts in the UK made headlines: Barack Obama’s eagerly awaited autobiography, The Promised Land, was beaten to the top spot by The Thursday Murder Club by Richard Osman, a debut cosy crime novel set in a retirement village. Not only did Osman’s book beat the former US president’s expected bestseller, it also broke records, becoming the fastest-selling debut crime novel of all time. Although Osman has a certain level of fame in the UK from his TV appearances on shows such as Pointless, his celebrity status does not entirely explain the novel’s huge sales. This article tracks the acquisition, publication, and promotion journey of The Thursday Murder Club in order to understand the industry and cultural context of its success and to interrogate the role of celebrity in the creation of author brands. The findings suggest that the unexpected scale of the success of the book owed to a number of factors, including in-depth editing by the novel’s agent, editor, and author to tighten up the plot, an extensive and strategic promotional campaign, the pandemic (which drove interest in the book’s genre and themes), and the quality of the writing. We find that the book’s success was accentuated by Osman’s celebrity status rather than being entirely reliant on it. This research adds to the growing scholarship on celebrity authorship by means of an in-depth case study and provides insight into the processes behind publishing a ‘celebrity’ book and launching a megabrand author
Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
No full textIn 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.

The vanishing author in computer-generated works: a critical analysis of recent Australian case law
Get PDFAbstract
The use of software is ubiquitous in the creation of many copyright works, yet the requirement in copyright law that every work have a human author who engages in independent intellectual effort means that its use may prevent copyright subsistence. Several recent Australian cases have refocused attention on authorship as an essential criterion of copyright subsistence, and these cases suggest that much computer-produced output may be authorless and thus lack copyright protection. This article, the first in a two-part series, analyses how each case deals with the question of authorship of computer-produced works and why the use of software diminishes copyright protection for a significant number of computer-generated works. The article critiques the application of conventional notions of human authorship developed in the pre-computer age to modern productions and suggests alternative approaches to authorship that satisfy both the major objectives of copyright policy and the need to adapt to the computer age. The article argues that, without a broader judicial approach to authorship of computer-generated works, Parliament must remedy the lacuna in protection for these ‘authorless’ works. Possible solutions for reform are suggested. In a forthcoming article, the author comprehensively examines those reform proposals
