ATENDIMENTO AO DIREITO DE ACESSO À INFORMAÇÃO, REGULAMENTADO PELA LEI 12.527/2011, NA UNIVERSIDADE FEDERAL DE PERNAMBUCO, ATRAVÉS DE SEU SERVIÇO DE INFORMAÇÕES AO CIDADÃO
Get PDFEste artigo tem por objetivo verificar como o direito de acesso à informação, regulamentado pela lei 12.527/2011, está sendo atendido na Universidade Federal de Pernambuco, através de seu Serviço de Informações ao Cidadão. O tipo de pesquisa utilizado no estudo é o exploratório-descritivo. Para o desenvolvimento da pesquisa, foi empregado o método exploratório. Delimita-se ao Serviço de Informações ao Cidadão da UFPE e ao período de dezembro de 2012 a janeiro de 2013. Para coleta dos dados, foi utilizada uma ficha técnica de observação estruturada. A análise dos dados foi “de conteúdo” e concluiu-se que os resultados apontam que há obediência à Lei por parte do SIC/UFPE, porém que o quadro exíguo de funcionários não permite que as respostas sejam dadas de forma imediata. Foi constatado também que a equipe do SIC/UFPE dedica muito tempo à conferência dos dados registrados no sistema e-SIC pelos solicitantes, e que, se esse sistema já efetivasse essa conferência quando do cadastro do requisitante, pouparia tempo de trabalho desnecessário por parte dos respondentes. Vimos que o índice de respostas negadas foi irrisório e que quase 70% das solicitações foram atendidas antes de 20 dias
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
Gestão industrial: implementação da ferramenta TPM em uma indústria de café
Get PDFRealizada en una industria alimentaria, la investigación tuvo como objetivo capacitar al equipo operativo en la aplicación del Mantenimiento Productivo Total (TPM) para mejorar las prácticas de mantenimiento. El enfoque adoptado involucró la recopilación y análisis de datos, destacando desafíos como las averías de máquinas y la desorganización en el entorno de trabajo. La implementación del TPM priorizó el mantenimiento autónomo, la estandarización y la capacitación, lo que resultó en mejoras significativas. Además, se utilizó la metodología 5S para organizar el entorno, aumentar la eficiencia y estandarizar las tareas. El compromiso de la dirección fue un aspecto clave, y la eficacia del proceso se monitoreó a través del indicador de Eficiencia Global del Equipo (OEE). El mantenimiento autónomo capacitó a los empleados para manejar averías, fallas y defectos de las máquinas, mejorando visiblemente la eficiencia operativa. También contribuyó a mejoras en el proceso, incluida la capacitación de los operadores, la organización y estandarización del diseño de la fábrica, así como la reducción de desperdicios, como el tiempo de inactividad prolongado de las máquinas, fallas repetitivas de equipos e ineficiencia en el uso de recursos, lo que resultó en un aumento de la productividad y una reducción de los costos operativos.Conducted in a food industry, the research aimed to train the operational team in the application of Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) to improve maintenance practices. The approach involved data collection and analysis, highlighting challenges such as machine breakdowns and disorganization in the work environment. The implementation of TPM prioritized autonomous maintenance, standardization, and training, resulting in significant improvements. Additionally, the 5S methodology was used to organize the environment, increase efficiency, and standardize tasks. Leadership commitment was a key aspect, and the effectiveness of the process was monitored through the Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) indicator. Autonomous maintenance empowered employees to handle machine breakdowns, failures, and defects, visibly improving operational efficiency. It also contributed to process improvements, including operator training, organization and standardization of the factory layout, as well as the reduction of waste, such as prolonged machine downtime, repetitive equipment failures, and resource inefficiency, resulting in increased productivity and reduced operational costs.Conduzida em uma indústria alimentícia, a pesquisa teve como meta capacitar a equipe operacional na aplicação da Total Productive Maintenance (Manutenção Produtiva Total - TPM) para aprimorar as práticas de manutenção.

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
