Business Consulting para Profonanpe
No full textEste business consulting se concentra en Profonanpe, institución de derecho privado sin fines
de lucro y de interés público y social que se dedica a la conservación, protección y manejo de
las áreas naturales protegidas por el Estado. Es considerada como el administrador de fondos
ambientales más importante del país. El problema clave identificado en Profonanpe fue la alta
dependencia de financiamiento externo, el cual es principalmente ocasionado por estas tres
causas: (a) el modelo de negocio que limita la búsqueda de nuevas alternativas de ingresos;
(b) la falta de estrategia financiera que desarrolle nuevos mecanismos que sean diferentes a
los actuales; (c) y las mejoras en la gestión del último quinquenio dan confianza en que el
modelo actual funciona. Se plantearon tres alternativas de solución y se determinó que las dos
opciones para generar ingresos adicionales, aprovechar nuevas oportunidades para abrir
nichos de negocio y compartir experiencias para emprendedores de carácter ambiental son:
(a) inversión de riesgo en incubadora de negocios de carácter ambiental; y (b) asesor
económico financiero orientado a inversiones sostenibles ambientales y sociales. Se diseñó
un plan de implementación compuesto por dos fases a desarrollarse en 12 meses bajo la
responsabilidad del Gerente de Laboratorio e Innovación, el Gerente General, y el personal
de la Unidad de Asesoría Económica y Financiera a Externos. Se calculó un presupuesto
estimado de 2’274,975.07, una
TIR de 116% mayor al WACC de 8.73%; un B/C de 12.69 y un período de recuperación de
un año, 10 meses y 11 días, se comprobó la viabilidad económica de la implementación de la
solución.This business consulting focuses on Profonanpe, a private non-profit institution of public and
social interest dedicated to the conservation, protection, and management of state-protected
natural areas. It is considered the most important environmental fund manager in the country.
The key problem identified in Profonanpe was the high dependence on external financing,
which is mainly caused by these three factors:(a) the business model that limits the search for
new income alternatives; (b) the lack of a financial strategy that develops new mechanisms
which differ from the current ones; (c) and the improvements in management over the last
five years give confidence that the current model works. Three solution alternatives were
proposed, and it was determined that the two options to generate additional income, seize
new opportunities to open business niches, and share experiences for environmental
entrepreneurs are: (a) venture capital investment in an environmental business incubator; and
(b) economic and financial advisory focused on sustainable environmental and social
investments. An implementation plan was designed, consisting of two phases to be developed
over 12 months under the responsibility of the Laboratory and Innovation Manager, the
General Manager, and the staff of the Economic and Financial Advisory Unit for External
Parties. An estimated budget of 2,274,975.07, an IRR of 116% greater than the WACC of 8.73%; a B/C of 12.69,
and a payback period of one year, 10 months, and 11 days, the economic viability of the
solution's implementation was confirmed

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
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
