ENTERPRISE MOBILITY – A SOLUTION FOR INCREASED BUSINESS EFFICIENCY
Get PDFThe massive influx of mobile devices over recent years has radically altered ideas about employees’ activity and the dimensions of business. The rapid development of business, mainly through increased staff mobility, has promoted
various concepts like BYOD (Bring Your Own Device), CYOD (Choose Your Own
Device) COPE (Corporate Owned, Personally Enabled), etc. This has brought to the
fore issues related to ensuring constant staff involvement in the work flow and
designing channels for accessing information with no constraints in terms of time, location, or the type of mobile devices used. At the same time, businesses need to design strategies which ensure a balance between the convenience of using mobile devices and the security and reliability of corporate networks operation. This paper reviews the essence of the BYOD concept and the benefits it brings to business; it makes a comparison with the CYOD concept and analyses the COPE alternative, its nature and feasible approaches for its implementation
MOBILE DEVICE MANAGEMENT AS A COMPONENT OF CORPORATE IT INFRASTRUCTURE
Get PDFDigital economy and the rapidly growing use of the Internet have rendered it impossible for a corporate IT infrastructure to perform successfully unless adopting the necessary techniques, technology and procedures for controlling access to resources. Mobile devices have become tremendously popular and they are an indispensable part of people’s everyday life, as well as a preferred option for accessing corporate IT infrastructure resources. Therefore, organisations need to design and implement efficient management solutions, based on in-depth analyses and in line with the specific properties of mobile devices.
This research paper describes in detail corporate IT infrastructure and mobile devices as components of that infrastructure, reviews their use in business environment and presents appropriate tools for exercising control
MOBILE COMMERCE AND ITS PROBLEMS
Get PDFМобилните технологии носят ценни ползи за бизнеса, които могат да се реализират само, ако компаниите съумеят да ги използват ефективно.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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
Get PDFWe 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
Artificial Intelligence Application in Human Resources Management
No full textIn the contemporary landscape marked by the pervasive influence of artificial intelligence (AI), technological innovations continue to reshape conventional practices across various domains. Within the realm of human resources management, the intricate process of decision-making has long posed challenges in terms of analytical elucidation. However, the advent of AI technologies has ushered in a new era, offering unprecedented opportunities to augment and refine HR administration practices. This paper delves into the transformative potential of AI applications within human resources management, shedding light on how diverse AI modalities, including narrow and general AI, are revolutionizing traditional approaches. Through a comprehensive review of literature sourced from esteemed databases such as Scopus and Google Scholar, this study identifies key advancements poised to drive future research endeavors. Beyond the realm of recruitment, AI presents a myriad of possibilities spanning talent acquisition, employee training and development, performance assessment, compensation management, engagement initiatives, and even employee well-being programs. The synergy between human capabilities and AI integration emerges as a cornerstone for achieving enhanced outcomes, often serving as a determinant for competitive advantage within organizations while also impacting broader societal dynamics. By exploring the symbiotic relationship between human ingenuity and AI capabilities, this research seeks to elucidate the pathways through which AI-driven innovations can foster organizational excellence and societal progress
