    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

    The thesis took PT Tanjung Raya Elok Jakarta as an object research. It deal with the tendency to identify some factors influencing the drop of sales and to defined strategies to increase the sales of TRE lift produced by PT Tanjung Raya Elok and Munich lift produced by Lift Material Gmbh. and Co. West Germany. The result of the research is expected to be applied as an alternative solution for PT Tanjung Raya Elok in increasing sales volume of B. Multiple regression analysis over variables of product variation quantity, price and frequency of promotion. The variable of product has significant influence (effect) toward sales. The other variables, Re price, and promotion also significant influence toward sales. Chow test result showed that regression from sales was significant, so they required different strategic implementation. The analysis on the factors influencing the fall of sales could be concluded that the decrease sales was merely resulted from internal marketing factor of PT Tanjung Raya Elok such as the low frequency of promotion, quantity of product variation, and rise in prices. Marketing mix strategies that as good as possible to do are increase frequency of promotion, quantity of product variation and to combine prices according to level customer at expensive, medium or cheap prices.

    Perhitungan laju aliron /luida ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui debit aliran yang melalui masing-masing pipa dan mengetahui kerugian head setiap junction untuk masing-masing panjang pipa dalam jaringan pipa. Jaringan pipa pipa ini membentuk suatu loop tertutup dengan jumlah loop dua buah. Diasumsikan aliran searah jarum jam adalah positip danberlawanan arah jarum jam dinyatakan negatip. Analisis jala-jala kerja pipa pada penelitian ini menggunakan metode Hardy Cross. Metode Hardy Cross didasarkan dengan prosedur secara iterasi. Langkah pertama perhitungan adalah dengan mengasumsikan debit aliran keluar untuk setiap percabangan. Pada setiap percabangan debit alirantersebut harus memenuhi kriteria kontinuitas. Debit aliran yang ditetapkan dalam langkah pertama adalah merupakan debit pendekatan yang belum tentu benar, sehingga diperlukan koreksi guna memperbaiki debit tersebut yang akhirnya sampai pada debit yang akurat.Proses pendekatan dihentikan sampai perhitungan memberikan nilai debit koreksi (ΔQ) kecil yaitu kurang dari 5% debit terkecil. Hasil dari perhitungan menunjukkan bahwa hubungan antara kehilangan tenagadan debit aliran yaitu debit aliran semakin besar dengan koefisien rugi head tinggi, maka rugi head pada setiap panjang pipa semakin besar

    Market orientation is a way for companies to focus on customers so that customers continue to buy company products. Agility is an important ability of a company to increase a sustainable competitive advantage. This study was conducted based on the decline in batik sales in Pekalongan and the existence of a research gap on the relationship between market orientation and marketing performance. This paper aims to test empirically the mediating effect of agility on the relationship between market orientation and marketing performance. Data were collected from 190 SMEs in Pekalongan. The result shows that market orientation significantly affects agility and marketing performance, and agility significantly affects marketing performance. Furthermore, agility mediates the correlation between market orientation and marketing performance. The Marketing performance of Batik SMEs can be improved by developing market orientation and agility simultaneously. The role of market orientation in improving marketing performance will be more effective if it is done indirectly through agility

    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

    Get PDF
    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
