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

MS DYNAMICS NAV SOLUTION ADAPTATION
Full text linkDiplomsko delo govori o prilagajanju rešitve Microsoft Dynamics NAV, ki je celovita informacijska rešitev, katero je možno dopolniti in spremeniti po željah uporabnikov, saj ima vsako podjetje, v katero se sistem uvede, tudi svojo posebnost.
Diplomska naloga je sestavljena iz dveh delov. V prvem — teoretičnem delu so predstavljene rešitve ERP in opisani različni pristopi uvajanja ter prednosti in slabosti posameznega pristopa. Podrobneje so predstavljene posamezne faze procesa uvedbe rešitve ERP, ki so oblikovanje, razvoj in testiranje, namestitev, podpora in vzdrževanje. Obširno je opisana rešitev Microsoft Dynamics NAV, ki je celovita in integrirana poslovna rešitev, ki jo uporabljajo podjetja v več kot 50 državah. Predstavljena je zgradba rešitve in nekaj vertikalnih rešitev, ki so jih razvili partnerji Microsoft Dynamics NAV. Naštete so tudi vse prednosti te rešitve in podrobno opisana Sure Step metodologija — metodologija uvedbe, ki vključuje določene smernice, orodja in predloge, ki pomagajo Microsoftovim partnerjem pri uvedbi Microsoft Dynamics produktov.
V drugem delu diplome je na praktičnih primerih predstavljeno razvojno okolje Microsoft Dynamic NAV in Object Designer, ki ga razvijalci uporabljajo za načrtovanje objektov in omogoča razvoj aplikacij s C/SIDE.
V zadnjem poglavju je podano strokovno mnenje uvajalca rešitve Microsoft Dynamics NAV — gospoda Matjaža Fajfarja iz podjetja Adacta, d. o. o, ki je vodilni ponudnik rešitve Microsoft Dynasmics NAV v regiji.
Izbrane teme smo se lotili predvsem zaradi pomanjkanja literature o razvojnem okolju Microsoft Dynamics NAV. Do dodatnega znanja smo prišli s pomočjo primerov in kratkih navodil, kako načrtovati in spreminjati objekte v C/SIDE.ZUSAMMENFASSUNG

COMPARISON OF SLOVENIA, EU AND USA E-GOVERNMENT
Full text linkRazvoj novih informacijsko-komunikacijskih tehnologij je dodobra zaznamoval današnji svet. Spremembe je bilo mogoče čutiti tudi v javni upravi, kjer so se pričeli premiki v smeri kvalitetnejše javne uprave, ki je eden temeljnih dejavnikov za konkurenčnost gospodarstva. E-uprava spreminja postopke poslovanja uprave z uporabo interneta, kar odpravlja uradne ure in čakanje v vrstah.
Namen e-uprave je nuditi večjo preglednost nad storitvami, nižanje stroškov, skrajšanje časa izvajanja procesov, povečanje zadovoljstva uporabnikov in omogočanje enostavnejše in kakovostnejše izmenjave informacij z zmanjšanjem napak prek izključitve človeškega faktorja. Vendar sta elektronska nepismenost in nezaupanje v varnost teh storitev še vedno dva glavna razloga za slabo uporabo storitev e-uprave. Seveda lahko z leti pričakujemo porast uporabe storitev e-uprave, saj mlajše generacije odraščajo ob razvoju nove tehnologije, ki omogoča takojšen dostop do potrebnih informacij in lahko pričakujemo, da bodo v prihodnosti uporabniki dostopali do spletnih portalov kar preko dlančnikov, pametnih telefonov, interaktivne televizije, tabličnih računalnikov in drugih tehnoloških novosti.
Interes za uporabo storitev e-uprave bi lahko povečali tudi z boljšo in bolj ciljno promocijo teh storitev. Za povečanje zavedanja o e-upravi pri starejših bi lahko uporabili bolj klasične načine in sicer prek letakov, v časopisih, na radiu in televiziji, mlajše pa bi o storitvah e-uprave lahko seznanjali prek družabnih omrežij (na primer Facebook, Twitter, Google+, LinkedIn in ostali) in s simboličnimi nagradnimi igrami na teh omrežjih.The development of new information and communication technologies left a mark on the world as we know it, because the innovations were implemented in all aspects of our lives. Changes were also seen in the public administration, which began moving towards a higher quality of public administration, which is one of the main factors of a competitive economy. E-government changes the way public administration works by using the Internet, which eliminates limited working hours and waiting in queues to get things done.
The purpose of e-government is to provide greater transparency of services, reduce costs, shorten the duration of processes, increase customer satisfaction and enable easier and better information exchange by reducing errors through exclusion of human factors. However, electronic illiteracy and lack of confidence in the safety of these services are still two of the main reasons for low use of e-government. Over the years to come, we can expect an increase in the use of e-government services as younger generations are growing up in a time of continuous development of new technology, which allows instant access to necessary information. We can predict that in the future individuals will be able to access the needed web portals of e-government with the use of PDAs, smart phones, tabs and other technological innovations.
Interest in using e-government services could be boosted by a better and more targeted promotion of these services. To increase the awareness of e-government services of the older generation more conventional ways such as promotion through leaflets, in newspapers, on the radio and television could be used. The younger generation could learn about e-government services on social networks (e.g. Facebook, Twitter, Google+ LinkedIn and others) and contests with symbolic prizes on these networks
