    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    No full text
    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

    Crime scene may leave various items of evidence, one of them bloodstain. Bloodstain might provide valuable information that indicates a lot form of violence that can be used as a solution in a criminal case. Criminals often camouflage the traces or evidence by cleaning the bloodstains using cleaning agents to cover up the crime. One of the cleaning agents that may be used by criminal is liquid dish soap. Bloodstains that contaminated by liquid dish soap may affect the results of the examination using Teichmann and Takayama tests. The purpose of this study is to describe the hemoglobin crystal in bloodstains that contaminated by liquid dish soap using Teichmann and Takayama test. In this study, there were five liquid dish soap solutions swabbed onto bloodstained slides for each tests. The results show that all 22 slides (100 %) still have positive result which means the hemoglobin crystal still could be found in the contaminated bloodstain using Teichmann and Takayama test. The conclusion of this study is liquid dish soap that used might not affect the formation of hemoglobin crystal using Teichmann and Takayama test

    Forensic investigation was not only done to investigate injuries sustained by the victim of crime, but also to investigate objects or other evidences, such as blood, in crime scene. Some forensic investigation that can confirm if suspected object is blood was confirmatory test (Teichmann and Takayama test). The criminals often wipe out blood using antiseptic liquid soap. In that case, it may give different description in forensic investigation. Therefore, the aim of this study was to know the description of hemoglobin crystal on bloodstain that exposed by antiseptic liquid soap with Teichmann and Takayama test. This study was experimental study with pre-test post-test design. There were 18 bloodstain slides as sample of this study, including 2 control slides and 16 slides that had been exposed with 4 antiseptic liquid soap brands. This study showed 18 bloodstain slides (100%) had positive result after exposed by using Teichmann and Takayama test and there were no changes of crystal's shape. It could be conclude that hemoglobin crystal still could be found in bloodstain that exposed by antiseptic liquid soap with Teichmann and Takayama test

    "Closing the R&D Gap, Evaluating the Sources of R&D Spending"

    No full text
    Both spending and tax policies have been implemented in the United States with the goal of stimulating private sector research and development (R&D). Karier questions whether current R&D policy, especially the research and experimentation tax credit, can contribute to closing the gap between nondefense expenditures on R&D in the United States and such expenditures in other countries, such as Japan and Germany. He also explores possible changes to our current R&D policy to make it more effective.

    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

    Letter from R. R. Zellick, Assistant Trust Officer at The Anglo California National Bank of San Francisco, to Joseph R. Goodman, regarding property owned by Dave Tatsuno. Zellick mentions a dispute between current tenants and Tatsuno, and that Tatsuno has asked Goodman to help locate trustworthy tenants.Personal correspondence, organizational records, government documents, publications, and other papers created or collected by Joseph R. Goodman documenting the forced removal and incarceration of Japanese Americans during World War II, as well as organized resistance to incarceration. Included in the collection are records of the Japanese Young Men's Christian Association and the Japanese American Citizens' League in San Francisco, including papers of the Japanese YMCA's executive secretary Lincoln Kanai; Sakai family papers; Goodman's correspondence to and from Japanese American incarcerees, organizations opposing forced removal and incarceration of Japanese Americans, the War Relocation Authority, and others; publications, photographs, and ephemera from the Topaz Relocation Center, where Goodman taught high school; War Relocation Authority records and publications; and newspaper clippings, pamphlets, and reports about forced removal and incarceration created by various government, religious, and civic organizations, in California and nationwide

    The role of abscisic acid and auxin in the response of poplar to abiotic stress

    No full text
    The plant hormones auxin and abscisic acid may at first sight appear to be a conflicting pair of plant regulators. Abscisic acid content increases during stress and protects plant water status. The content of free auxin in the developing xylem of poplar declines during stress, while auxin conjugates increase. This indicates that specific down‐regulation of a signal transduction chain is important in plant adaptation to stress. Diminished auxin content may be a factor that adapts growth and wood development of poplar during adverse environmental conditions. To allow integration of environmental signals, abscisic acid and auxin must interact. Data are accumulating that abscisic acid–auxin cross‐talk exists in plants. However, knowledge of the role of plant hormones in the response of trees to stress is scarce. Our data show that differences in the localisation of ABA synthesis exist between the annual, herbaceous plant Arabidopsis and the perennial woody species, poplar

    The role of public-private partnerships in local infrastructure : the case of carbon offset projects.

    L’investissement dans des infrastructures locales sobres en carbone est considéré comme une composante importante de la lutte contre le changement climatique. Les mécanismes de règlementation climatique (comme la compensation carbone) font supporter aux développeurs de projet les risques liés à la réduction des émissions de gaz à effet de serre (GES): les risques opérationnels, technologiques ou liés au monitoring environnemental et aux mécanismes régulateurs. Nous montrons que l’efficacité environnementale et économique des projets dépend en grande partie des modalités de partage de ces risques entre les différents acteurs impliqués dans le projet. Sur un échantillon de projets de torchage des gaz d’enfouissement financés par le Mécanisme pour un Développement Propre, il est montré que la délégation de la fourniture de la technologie crée des risques supplémentaires. La délégation de l’élaboration de la documentation du projet selon les règles formelles de l’UNFCCC et la séparation de l’opération de la décharge et du projet MDP semblent être maîtrisables par la mise en place de mesures de partage de risques.Investment in low carbon infrastructure is considered an important component of the fight against climate change. The mechanisms of climate regulation (such as carbon offsets) transfer to project developers the risks associated with reducing emissions of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, i.e. operational and technological risk, or risks associated with the environmental monitoring and the regulatory mechanism itself. The success of projects depends importantly on the risk sharing arrangements between the private and public partners. It is shown that the delegation of tasks between the partners can create risks that affect the environmental effectiveness and economic efficiency of the project. For a sample of landfill gas flaring projects financed under the Clean Development Mechanism, it is shown that the outsourcing of the provision of technology creates additional risks. The outsourcing of the development of the official project documentation required by the UNFCCC and the separation of the operation of the landfill and the CDM project development appear to be manageable by risk sharing arrangements.partenariats privé-public; infrastructure locale; gestion des déchets; Mécanisme pour un Développement Propre; changement climatique; théorie des contrats; Public-private partnerships; local infrastructure; waste management; Clean Development Mechanism; climate change; contract theory;
