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
TA : Penerapan Analytical Hierarchy Process Dalam Memilih Mobil Pada Portal Otomotif Indonesia
Full text linkTransaksi jual beli mobil baru secara online atau Portal Otomotif di Indonesia yang ada sekarang ini hanyalah menyediakan mobil dari berbagai tipe dan merek dengan rincian informasi yang berkaitan dengan mobil tersebut. User calon pembeli mobil hanya diberi kesempatan untuk bertransaksi membeli saja. Beberapa portal juga ada yang menyediakan fasilitas untuk membandingkan salah satu mobil dengan beberapa mobil yang lain, namun fasilitas tersebut hanyalah sekedar membandingkan saja tanpa memberikan solusi, mobil yang mana yang lebih baik dari beberapa mobil yang dibandingkan.
Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) sebagai model pengambilan keputusan dapat digunakan untuk membantu permasalahan di atas. Karena AHP dapat memecahkan masalah penentuan pilihan yang multiobjective (banyak tujuan yang dicapai) diantara beberapa kriteria kuantitatif dan kualitatif sekaligus.
Tujuan pembuatan aplikasi ini adalah untuk menerapkan model pengambilan keputusan Analytical Hierarchy Process dalam pemilihan mobil berbasis web yang diharapkan dapat membantu calon pembeli mobil (user) dalam menentukan pilihan mobil yang sesuai dari beberapa alternatif yang disediakan.
Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa dengan AHP, kriteria mobil yang kualitatif dapat dipakai sebagai input data, sehingga semua kriteria yang berhubungan dengan mobil dapat dipakai secara maksimal, dan hasilnya lebih akurat. Pembobotan Kriteria dan Sub Kriteria yang tepat, menghasilkan vektor prioritas dengan tingkat inkonsistensi rata-rata kurang dari 10% bahkan 5%, dan pembobotan Alternatif yang digenerate dari data riil, rata-rata 0%
METODA TERINTEGRASI PENYUSUNAN RENCANA TEKNOLOGI INFORMASI
Full text link[Id]Paper ini ditujukan untuk mengusulkan metoda terintegrasi penyusunan rencana teknologi informasi (TI), mencakup arsitektur dan tata kelola TI. Metoda-metoda perencanaan TI yang ada saat ini secara umum terbagi dalam dua kelompok terpisah, yaitu perencanaan arsitektur dan perencanaan Tata Kelola TI. Dikotomi metoda ini memiliki potensi risiko ketidaktepatan strategi dan sumberdaya dalam mengimplementasikan rancangan arsitektur TI, sehingga realisasi value dari implementasi TI tidak optimal. Metoda yang diusulkan terdiri dari empat tahapan: assessment, visioning, design dan roadmap. Pada tahapan assessment, perbaikan yang diusulkan adalah mengaitkan antara ketercapaian kontribusi value bisnis dan korelasinya dengan tingkat kematangan TI. Pada tahapan visioning, perbaikan yang diusulkan adalah pendekatan berbasis kapabilitas untuk pada domain arsitektur teknis dan tata kelola, yang akan menjadi rujukan dalam tahapan design. Pada tahapan design, perbaikan yang diusulkan ditekankan pada identifikasi model operasi TI yang tepat untuk merealisasikan desain enterprise architecture. Pada tahapan roadmap, perbaikan yang diusulkan ditekankan pada sinkronisasi pencapaian arsitektur dan ketepatan strategi sumberdaya pada komponen-komponen tata kelola seiring dengan peningkatan kematangan tata kelola. Metoda ini memberikan alternatif architecture view yang terintegrasi dan kuat tentang strategi merealisasikan arsitektur enterprise.Kata kunci : Rencana Strategis TI, Master Plan TI, Arsitektur Enterprise, Tata Kelola TI[En]This paper is aimed to propose the integrated method of information technology (IT) planning development, covering IT Architecture & IT Governance. In general, the current methods are separated between both. That dichotomy has a potential risk of inaccuracy of strategy and resource allocation in implementing IT Archicture Design. And finally, the potential value of IT Architecture is not optimal. The proposed method consists of four stages: assessment, visioning, design and roadmap. At the assessment stage, the proposed improvement is to link between the achievement of the business value contribution and its correlation with the level of IT maturity. At the stage of visioning, the proposed improvement is a capability-based approach to the domain of technical architecture and governance, which will be a reference in the design stage. At the design stage, the proposed improvements emphasize the identification of the right IT operation model for the realization of enterprise architecture design. At the roadmap stage, the proposed improvements are emphasized on synchronizing architectural achievements and the timeliness of resource strategies on governance components in line with improved governance maturity. This method provides an integrated and robust architecture view alternative to the strategy of realizing enterprise architecture
