Author Co-Citation Analysis (ACA): a powerful tool for representing implicit knowledge of scholar knowledge workers
No full textIn the last decade, knowledge has emerged as one of the most important and valuable organizational assets. Gradually this importance caused to emergence of new discipline entitled ―knowledge management‖. However one of the major challenges of knowledge management is conversion implicit or tacit knowledge to explicit knowledge. Thus Making knowledge visible so that it can be better accessed, discussed, valued or generally managed is a long-standing objective in knowledge management. Accordingly in this paper author co- citation analysis (ACA) will be proposed as an efficient technique of knowledge visualization in academia (Scholar knowledge workers)
Portfolio of recorded performances and exegesis: Messiaen’s musical language for the jazz pianist - an exploration through performance.
No full textMoving beyond Gunther Schuller’s Third Stream amalgamation of classical and jazz, this study explores whether the musical language of Olivier Messiaen can make a valid contribution to jazz piano performance. Initially, my project sought to answer such questions as: What elements of the musical language of Messiaen already exist in the jazz vocabulary? Am I able to extend this further? What are the timbral structures and pianistic effects within Messiaen’s musical language? What will be the most effective application of Messiaen’s musical language to jazz piano performance? Endeavouring to answer the final question led me to consider such aspects as whether the project should be limited to quoting Messiaen motifs, arranging Messiaen melodies, replacing jazz harmonic structures on standards with examples from Messiaen’s musical language or whether it would be better to approach the research conceptually. The work of Hubert Nuss provided encouraging reassurance that this was not an impossible task. In order to articulate this conception, the initial challenge was to decide how the classical and jazz worlds might meet in a ‘Messiaen’ technique. The approach adopted was similar to that used for undergraduate jazz study, namely, immersion in the piano scores and recordings of Messiaen’s music as well as by live performances. This was followed by the development and assessment of a contrived approach when specific techniques, such as tonal colourings or harmonic structures, were developed through prepared exercises and consciously included in my performance. It was then compared with an intuitive approach when no such precise parameters were established. This submission consists of CD recordings of two public recitals and an exegesis. It documents the development of this Messiaen technique and discusses its application in my performances. It also demonstrates the ways that Messiaen’s musical language can be used within jazz piano performance to provide a colour that distinguishes jazz piano performance in a competitive field.Thesis (M.Mus.) -- University of Adelaide, Elder Conservatorium of Music, 201

The CPR survey (1948-1997): a gridded database browser of plankton abundance in the North Sea
No full textThe Continuous Plankton Recorder (CPR) survey provides a unique multi-decadal dataset on the abundance of
plankton in the North Sea and North Atlantic and is one of only a few monitoring programmes operating at a large
spatio-temporal scale. The results of all samples analysed from the survey since 1946 are stored on an Access Database
at the Sir Alister Hardy Foundation for Ocean Science (SAHFOS) in Plymouth. The database is large, containing more
than two million records (~80 million data points, if zero results are added) for more than 450 taxonomic entities. An
open data policy is operated by SAHFOS. However, the data are not on-line and so access by scientists and others
wishing to use the results is not interactive. Requests for data are dealt with by the Database Manager. To facilitate
access to the data from the North Sea, which is an area of high research interest, a selected set of data for key
phytoplankton and zooplankton species has been processed in a form that makes them readily available on CD for
research and other applications.
A set of MATLAB tools has been developed to provide an interpolated spatio-temporal description of plankton
sampled by the CPR in the North Sea, as well as easy and fast access to users in the form of a browser. Using
geostatistical techniques, plankton abundance values have been interpolated on a regular grid covering the North Sea.
The grid is established on centres of 1° longitude x 0.5° latitude (~32 × 30 nautical miles). Based on a monthly temporal
resolution over a fifty-year period (1948–1997), 600 distribution maps have been produced for 54 zooplankton species,
and 480 distribution maps for 57 phytoplankton species over the shorter period 1958–1997.
The gridded database has been developed in a user-friendly form and incorporates, as a package on a CD, a set of
options for visualisation and interpretation, including the facility to plot maps for selected species by month, year, groups
of months or years, long-term means or as time series and contour plots. This study constitutes the first application of
an easily accessed and interactive gridded database of plankton abundance in the North Sea. As a further development
the MATLAB browser is being converted to a user-friendly Windows-compatible format (WinCPR) for release on CD
and via the Web in 2003
