Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The 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
“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
We 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
Analisa Penetapan Harga Jual Unit Rumah Pada Pengembangan Perumahan Grand Mandiri Residence, Depok
Dalam menetapkan harga jual unit rumah, harga yang ditawarkan harus bersaing dengan harga perumahan lain di sekitarnya yang memiliki segmentasi dan konsep tidak jauh berbeda. Hal ini agar konsumen tertarik membeli rumah di perumahan tersebut. Harga jual rumah merupakan acuan pertimbangan pemilihan rumah oleh konsumen, disamping fasilitas dan desain. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui harga jual unit rumah pada pengembangan Grand Mandiri Residence yang memperhitungkan besarnya biaya agar dapat memberikan keuntungan, serta dapat diterima oleh konsumen menurut permintaan pasar. Penetapan harga jual menggunakan analisa titik impas yang mempertemukan kurva biaya dan kurva pendapatan. Kurva biaya diperoleh dari perhitungan biaya tetap dan biaya variabel. Kurva pendapatan diperoleh dari kurva permintaan yang berasal dari survei. Berdasarkan hasil analisa diperoleh harga jual yang sesuai dengan analisa biaya dan permintaan pasar untuk tipe 120 adalah Rp 767.455.121 dengan jumlah unit rumah sebanyak 34 unit, dan harga jual untuk tipe 140 sebesar Rp 1.174.668.574 dengan jumlah unit rumah sebanyak 6 unit
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We 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
Penerapan Rekayasa Nilai Pada Proyek Pembangunan Hotel Ciputra World Di Surabaya
Hotel Ciputra World di Surabaya adalah hotel bintang lima yang terletak di Jalan Mayor Jendral Sungkono Surabaya. Gedung yang bersebelahan dengan Mall Ciputra World ini memiliki luas 22.008 m2. Hotel Ciputra World Surabaya diidentifikasi memiliki biaya tidak perlu. Biaya tidak perlu dapat dikurangi dengan menerapkan rekayasa nilai. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mencari penghematan pada proyek pembangunan Hotel Ciputra World di Surabaya dengan menggunakan rekayasa nilai. Penerapan rekayasa nilai dilakukan dengan menggunakan Rencana Kerja Rekayasa Nilai. Tahap dari rencana kerja tersebut meliputi empat langkah, yaitu tahap informasi, tahap kreatif, tahap analisis dan tahap rekomendasi. Tahap informasi berisi Analisis Fungsi. Tahap kreatif dilaksanakan dengan Brainstroming. Tahap analisis terdiri dari Analisis Keuntungan dan Kerugian, Analisis Life Cycle Cost, dan analisis pengambilan keputusan dengan metode Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP). Tahap rekomendasi adalah tahap untuk menunjukan alternatif mana yang akhirnya diputuskan layak untuk menggantikan item pekerjaan existing. Melalui penerapan rekayasa nilai pada proyek pembangunan Hotel Ciputra World di Surabaya memiliki item pekerjaan yang memiliki potensi biaya tidak diperlukan paling besar yaitu pekerjaan dinding dalam. Penghematan biaya konstruksi yang didapat dari pekerjaan dinding dalam adalah sebesar Rp. 2.259.177.900 atau sebesar 7.03% dari biaya total pembangunan (Rp. 32.140.900.000,00.) Pekerjaan dinding pada awalnya mengeluarkan biaya sebesar Rp 7.483.900.771 menjadi Rp 5.224.722.871
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
We 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
