    Abstract. Pontianak City is the capital of West Kalimantan Province, Indonesia. In contributing to one of its missions to be a city that supports the development of trade,services and tourism, Pontianak continues to make improvements through physical development and spatial arrangement to maintain the flow of goods and services. The purpose of this study was to analyze the existing urban networks (in this case infrastructure networks) in Pontianak in support of the city's development goals to become a leading trade, services, and tourism center in Kalimantan. Network analysis was applied by analyzing the infrastructure networks, explore the 'structural position' and then the tendency of the infrastructure network configuration in connecting the trade/market areas or tourist attractions was investigated. Based on the analysis, it was found that the central or important areas that link other areas within the infrastructure network configuration are still dominated by market or trading areas/functions, while for tourist attractions they are still limited. Increased centering or grouping in specific areas can be achieved by adding or reducing the degree of connectedness, by arranging the flow or connections (links) from one area (point) to another, directly or indirectly, with the infrastructure network as the intermediary.Keywords: urban, network, trade, tourism, PontianakAbstrak. Kota Pontianak adalah ibu kota provinsi Kalimantan Barat, Indonesia. Dalam mendukung salah satu misinya sebagai kota yang mendukung pengembangan perdagangan dan jasa, Pontianak terus melakukan perbaikan melalui perkembangan fisik dan tata ruang untuk menjaga arus barang dan jasa. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis jaringan perkotaan yang ada (dalam hal ini adalah jaringan infrastruktur) di Pontianak dalam mendukung tujuan pembangunan kota untuk menjadi kota perdagangan, jasa, dan pariwisata terdepan. Analisis jaringan diaplikasikan dengan menganalisa jaringan infrastruktur, mengeksplorasi 'posisi struktural', dan kemudian menggambarkan kecenderungan konfigurasi jaringan infrastruktur dalam menghubungkan wilayah perdagangan/pasar atau tempat wisata. Berdasarkan analisis tersebut, didirikanlah kawasan sentral atau penting yang menghubungkan daerah lain dalam konfigurasi jaringan infrastruktur yang masih didominasi oleh pasar atau wilayah/fungsi perdagangan. Sedangkan untuk tempat wisata, masih terbatas. Untuk meningkatkan keterpusatan atau pengelompokkan untuk area tertentu, dapat dilakukan dengan menambahkan atau mengurangi tingkat keterhubungan, dengan mengatur aliran atau koneksi (link) dari satu area (titik) ke titik lainnya; secara langsung atau tidak langsung, dengan jaringan infrastruktur sebagai perantara.Kata Kunci: perkotaan, jaringan, perdagangan, pariwisata, Pontiana

    Recent day, tourism has become one of the important (experience) industries, which has ability to promoted financial sector growth, steering physical development, and self-promotion event. In sum, tourism has many perspective fields of studies, and some of them are city-regional studies, built environment and architecture. The aim of this paper is to provide a perspective on the“design structure” and also the integration in multi-disciplinary level in a perspective of physical environmental design (built environment). The construction of ideas was done through deepening and searching of related literatures and then complemented by practices side reviewed. In the realm of physical environmental design, theoretically, there are some multi-disciplinary considerations; emotional-personal to the adaptation of physical design process. And, some of the approaches may be formed by “frame” of: architectural design, zoning and division, routes and circulation, natural condition, as well as technology utilization

    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

    Tourism industry has become one of important contributors of foreign exchange for Indonesia. In order to develop it, the central government has issued several policies, one of which is by assigning national tourism strategic areas across the country that also have a role to encourage other factors, such as economy, social-security, etc. This paper is an exploratory study on the existing tourism market in one of the national strategic areas, namely Sambas Regency in West Kalimantan, Indonesia. Besides, this study also observed the synchronization of this area with other attractions and other strategic areas (borderlands). After the tourism market was identified, the relation among the visitors’ origins, the places they visited, and their next trips were explored to identify the dominant characters of the movement and places. This study used survey technique and network analysis. The findings conclude that the main tourism market in tourism strategic area was still dominated by domestic market with their specific characters. The visitors did not only visit the tourism attractions in Sambas, but also pass the border to go to the neighbouring country, either directly or through Sambas. This market niche can be “exploited” by Sambas regency by rearranging their attraction hierarchy, placing attractions around Sambas palace as the centre, and making the border either as an entrance or continued attraction

    Borderlands and Tourism Development in Kalimantan Island: Kalimantan Barat, Indonesia - Sarawak, Malaysia 'Head to Head'

    As part of the regions that share lands and boundaries, Sarawak-Malaysia and Kalimantan Barat-Indonesia have respective characteristics in the borderlands treatment. This paper aims to explore and compare the border areas between two nations, ranging from the borderlands profiles, (tourism) development and planning, and their opportunities. Besides, this paper also wants to highlight tourism development as one of the strategies. This paper uses documentary research to seek 'text and context' by narratively describing and compiling the documents. From the discussion, it can be seen that both regions have different characteristics of conditions and problems. For tourism development, different approaches are also 'colored' with timing, momentum, and priorities; as influenced and supported by the national plans. Tourism in the borderlands is the impetus in which each regions has already been aware of this potential because of the traction of informal flow, accessibility, supply, and demand. Furthermore, we argue that if tourism has exist at the first place, in the future, by its backward linkages, it will encourage more physical and economic development and cooperation between nations

    The Rasau Jaya Port area is a port area located in Kubu Raya Regency which serves shipping routes to the hinterland of West Kalimantan. The journey taken is a cross route within Kubu Raya Regency and a cross route between districts, namely North Kayong Regency. However, judging from the area and the port service office, this is still not feasible for an inter-district port area. Therefore, the Rasau Jaya Port area requires an area arrangement according to existing regulatory standards. The design methodology is adopted in stages, namely ideas, data collection, analysis, synthesis and design. With an area design concept that refers to the functions and standards of ferry port requirements. This can make the port a more organized area like a port in general

    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
