    Community based e-Museum framework: towards sustainable cultural heritage information system / Suriyati Razali

    This research presents the work that conceptualizes a new phenomenon of sharing cultural knowledge through a model of an E-museum which is coined as the community based E-museum. This conceptualization is motivated by two main factors. The first factor is the growing need for museums to manage the digitization of their museum artifacts while trying to re ach out for more historical or cultural artifacts whose custodians are individuals or families who are reluctant to surrender their artifacts to museums. The second factor is the rapid growth of user generated content that thrives on the simplicity but powerful web technology which signifies the willingness of users to participate in the contribution of content in the online social media. To gain a better understanding of museums’ functions and processes, an extensive literature review was done to trace the development of the new museology and trend of e-museums was made. This community based E-museum (ComE) model is conceptualized against a backdrop that illustrates the e-museum evolution against a technology trend that managed to engage users in active online participation in the virtual world. The ComE is conceptualized as an E-museum that empowers community members who are owners of cultural artifacts to share the artifacts with other e-museum visitors through the curatorship of digital forms of the artifacts while maintaining the custodianship of the artifact

This research revealed a number of significant findings that add to previous literature and contribute managerial practice as well. Based on the findings of primary research a number of managerial recommendations were also made to enhance the effectiveness of event marketing in developing the brand communities and achieve marketing objectives

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Full text link
    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

    Full text link
    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

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Full text link
    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
