Project of Job Management for Access Road to Tallinn Prison
No full textKäesolev töö on reaalsuses eksisteeriva tee-ehitusobjekti töökorralduse projekt. Töö on koostatud juurdepääsutee kohta, mis ühendab valmides Tallinna linna Betooni tänava ja Tallinna ringtee. Käesolevas töös on analüüsitud tööde korraldust, inimressursse ja mehhanismide kooseisu. Arvutused ja analüüs põhinevad projektsetel mahtudel, reaalsetel kasutatavate materjalide asukohtadel ning töö autori, kolleegide ja koostööpartneritel kogemusel erinevate ressursside ja mehhanismide tootlikkuse osas. Töös on arvestatud hetkel kehtivate asjakohaste nõuete ja juhenditega. Käesolev töö sisaldab ülevaadet hetkeolukorrast objektil ja üldised nõuded. Edasi on välja toodud täpsed juhised, nõuded ja parameetrid, mida on vaja teada erinevate tööde teostamisel. Seejärel on kirjeldatud kõiki tööetappe ja selles sisalduvaid töid, mis on vajalikud projekti ellu viimiseks. Välja on toodud iga töö kohta mehhanismide ja tööjõu kasutus. Viimaks leiab ülevaate projektsetest ja arvutuslikest mahtudest, mehhanismide vajadusest ja inimtööjõust tuginedes eelnevalt kirjeldatud tehnoloogiatele ja nõudmistele. Töö eesmärgiks oli koostada tööde korraldamise kava. Leitud mahtude ja ressursivajaduse põhjal on koostatud tööde graafik ja mehhanismide ja tööjõu vajaduse koondtabel. Tabelist leiab tööetappidest koosnevad ehitustööd. Iga töö kohta on välja toodud mehhanismide kasutamine nii ajaliselt kui arvuliselt. Kirjeldatud on iga ressursiallika ülesanne lühidalt. Tööde graafikust saab ülevaate tehtavatest töödest kronoloogilises järjekorras. Kuna teedeehituses on töid, mida saab samal ajal teostada, siis leiab ka tööde graafikust samal tööperioodil toimuvad tööd. Kokku kulub tööde teostamiseks hinnaguliselt 84 kümnetunnilist tööpäeva. Töökorralduse projekt aitab töid paremini planeerida, koostada eelarvet tööde tegemiseks ja töid ratsionaalsemalt läbi viia. Kõige selle abil saab ehitusprotsessi läbi viia efektiivsemalt ja kasumlikumalt. Majandusnäitajaid käesolevas töös otseselt ei käsitletud ning ressurside ja mehhanismide kasutus sisaldab hinnanguid.This working paper presents a job management project of a real road construction project. The construction object is a road that will be located in City of Tallinn and will connect Betooni Street and roundabout of Tallinn. The analysis covers job management, human resource planning and composition of mechanisms. Calculations and analysis are based on projected volumes, real locations of used materials and estimated productivity of resources and mechanism based on experience. Relevant and valid requirements and instructions have been taken into account. At first, the current situation regarding the object and general requirements are presented. Next, precise instructions, requirements and parameters related to performing different type of works are described. Further, different stages and types of work necessary for executing the project are described. For each type of work mechanisms and human resource need is presented. Last but not least, projected and calculated volumes, need for mechanisms and human resource is summarized based on previously described technologies and requirements. The purpose of this working paper was to compose the job management plan. A work schedule and mechanisms and human resource need table has been compiled based on the calculated volumes and resource needs. The table is describes briefly different tasks and presents the resource needs in hours and natural units. Chronological sequence is used and also there are several tasks that can be performed at the same time. The project duration is estimated to be 84 days with ten hours in line. The job management project helps to improve planning, budgeting and execute the project more rationally. This improves the efficiency and profitability of the construction process. However, no economic indicators have been directly analyzed in this paper and the calculations contain estimations
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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
Full text linkWe 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
Full text linkWe 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

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.
