Impact of LinkedIn on Recruiters in Finland
Full text linkRecruitment is a crucial process in an organization. It is important for recruiters to use the right tools and techniques to identify and attract the right talent into the organizations. In order to attract a large pool of candidates, both from active and passive pool, recruiters now opt for social media as a recruitment channel over traditional methods. LinkedIn is one such commonly used channel to perform various recruitment activities. It has proved to be a cost effective and an efficient tool. This research investigates the impact of LinkedIn on recruiters in Finland. The research tries to identify how successfully recruiters search for the right candidates and hire them using LinkedIn.
Quantitative analysis, through a survey, was conducted for 19 recruiters based in Finland who use LinkedIn to perform most of their recruitment activities. The findings indicated that irrespective of the size of the companies, recruiters in Finland used LinkedIn and believed it to be an effective tool. Recruiters in Finland preferred LinkedIn over other social media channels. Recruiters received applications and searched for potential candidates using LinkedIn. Majority of recruiters hired their employees through LinkedIn.
As already known, LinkedIn profiles are created by the users themselves, hence there could be some hidden risks such as authenticity and privacy issues that could not be ignored. However, recruiters in Finland did not encounter any negative or privacy issues by using LinkedIn.
Recruiters have been successful in using LinkedIn to perform most of their recruitment activities and agreed it to be an effective recruitment tool. This study indicates that LinkedIn has a major impact on recruiters in Finland

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

Any application that is designed to run on such specialized devices has a typical flow that begins and ends with data movement between Central Processing Unit (CPU) and GPU. Previous research has shown that this data movement is indeed a major bottleneck with even most optimized applications hitting only 30% of the peak performance [1]. While most recent efforts have been to manually tune communication to improve performance, in this work, we present three different general optimization techniques to introduce overlap between communication and computation. The optimized model thus developed on a stencil application is evaluated against the baseline model using various performance metrics including time and throughput. Sets of experiments performed on two different GPUs reported that a certain combination of these optimizations result in a maximum speedup of 6.5 and a 160% increase in bandwidth utilization when compared to the baseline model in Compute Unified Device Architecture (CUDA)
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
