    Abstract— The presence of street vendors (vendors) in Jalan Barito for over 20 years proves that the informal sector was able to survive and is one of the most effective way of reducing unemployment in the city of Semarang and surrounding areas. From a survey conducted by the Office of Semarang City Market in collaboration with the University of Semarang, found that the increased status of street vendors used to be a special area (typical) street vendors, will be promoting business in this sector. The presence of more and more traders on the street Barito, giving a negative impact on the environment such as visual degradation environment, clutter, and discomfort for Barito road users. Vehicle circulation and car parking arrangements which disrupt the smooth flow of traffic through the road Barito, a function of path-breaking Barito traffic flow can not function properly. The majority of traders in Barito area has the status of permanent buildings. This is preferred for reasons of practicality in the trade. Function River Flood Canal levee East as a drag stream of water disturbed by the presence of a permanent bengunan erode the dike body. The need for clarity of the status of street vendors in Jalan Barito, one of them by changing its name to Regions Barito. This is because the definition of Barito vendors on the street can not apply again. The influence of this change are felt in the regulations concerning the building for the street vendors. Thus there is need for a new regional regulations to regulate this area in particular. Need for physical rearrangement of existing areas. It takes a broader space for the circulation that took place in this region remained smooth and regular. The desire to keep the majority of traders who occupy permanent buildings should be considered to continue to see its position on the East River Flood Canal Keywords : Change, City Corridor, Barito Street Latar Belakang Permasalahan B.

Berawal ketika Pemerintah Kota Semarang memindahkan beberapa Pedagang Kaki Lima dari kawasan Stasiun Tawang, jalan Sendowo, dan jalan Kartini pada awal dekade 80-an. Beberapa PKL tersebut dipindahkan ke tempat yang dianggap tidak terlalu mengganggu lalu lintas kendaraan. Maka dipilihlah Jalan Barito sebagai tempat perpindahan tersebut. Saat itu jalan Barito masih berupa jalan kampung yang belum diaspal dan tidak begitu banyak kendaraan yang lewat di jalan tersebut. Namun seiring dengan perkembangan pembangunan di kota Semarang, maka Pedagang Kaki Lima yang ada semakin bertambah banyak. Apalagi setelah jalan Barito diaspal dan menjadi jalan alternatif (jalan kolektor sekunder) yang menghubungkan jalan Brigjend Katamso dengan jalan Kaligawe. Hingga sampai saat ini perkembangan itu telah menjadikan jalan Barito sebagai ikon bagi kota Semarang sebagai kawasan perdagangan suku cadang otomotif dan barang hasil industri kecil untuk rumah tangga. Menurut data survei dari Dinas pasar Kota Semarang, diperoleh angka transaksi dari tiap pedagang yang cukup besar, pendapatan per hari pedagang di Kawasan ini bisa mencapai lebih dari Rp. 1.000.000,00. dari jumlah tersebut, pedagang mendapatkan keuntungan sebesar 10%. Dengan jumlah pedagang yang tercatat hingga tahun 2007 mencapai 776 pedagang, maka jumlah peredaran uang yang terjadi di kawasan Barito tidak bisa dianggap remeh. Dari perkembangan tersebut, ternyata kawasan Barito ini menyimpan masalah yang cukup pelik, mulai dari perubahan fungsi dan definisi pedagang yang menempatinya, lalu munculnya masalah ketidaknyamanan pengguna jalan Barito, penetapan tarif pajak dan retribusi bagi pedagang, serta masalah keabsahan bangunan yang terletak persis di tepi tanggul sungai Banjir Kanal Timur. Gejala sosial lain yang timbul adalah masalah kesemrawutan yang timbul akibat dari belum dilakukannya penataan kawasan yang terencana dengan matang. Penempatan lahan parkir yang berada tepat di tepi jalan, bahkan sampai memakan badan jalan, menjadi masalah utama bagi kelancaran arus lalu lintas yang ada di jalan tersebut. Pembedaan antara lahan parkir dan tempat perbaikan kendaraan pun tidak begitu jelas. Keduanya diletakkan tepat di tepi jalan utama (jalan Barito). Kendaraan yang parkir bisa juga merupakan kendaraan yang sedang diperbaiki. Hal lain adalah penempatan barang dagangan yang berdimensi cukup besar, seperti gardan mobil, pipa-pipa besi, drum dan ban bekas. Keberadaan barang-barang ini yang hanya ditumpuk didepan kios-kio

    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

    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

    Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902

    No full text
    In 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.
