The Economic Effects of Supply Chain Management on the Automobile Industries in China
Get PDFChina’s automobile industries had been competitively challenged in recent times. In order to remain competitive relevant in the automobile industries globally, China’s automobile industries had to drive a strategic to channel its automobile production in the right perspective to remain competitive relevant. This led to the launched of a supply chain management by China’s automobile industries. This paper considered the likely positive economic effects of the supply chain management on China’s automobile industries. Firstly, the supply chain tends to open more markets for China’s automotive industries in the ASEAN, EU, and AU regions. Secondly, the supply chain threatens China’s automobile industries control over her local and regional markets from foreign automobile industries as China open their markets for international automobile industries in order to penetrate into foreign automobile markets. That is the supply chain poses a two-sided coin effect on Chain’s automobile industries.Thirdly, the intention of the China’s automobile industries to developed environmental friendly automobile vehicles (evergreen automobiles) just like their competitors to remain competitive. This paper employed a strategic methodology of comparing the present; China’s automobile industries supply chain management and the intended supply chain management acceptable by the Western’s automobile industries. The sampling of 200 participants of stakeholders that comprised of Western automobile dealers, Western automobile industries representatives, China’s automobile industries representatives, China’s automobile suppliers, EU representatives, and other participants indicated that the posed supply china management has positive economic effects on the China industries.<br/

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
المصطلحات العربية في شعر إقبال باللغة الأردية: Arabic terminology in Iqbal’s Urdu Poetry
No full textDr. Allama Muhammad Iqbal has been a famous poet, Jurist and an active leader of Freedom Movement during 20th century. He is basically known for his poetry in Urdu and Persian Languages. The central idea of his poetry was the Renaissance of the Muslim Nation. Allama Iqbal was amongst a few mentally fertile and Progressive people of that time. He had a great inclination towards Arabic language as well. Therefore, he used to employ Arabic Terminology in his Urdu and Persian poetry. Once upon a time, he was invited by his true friends to Hakeem Ameenudeen 's house to present his poetry before other poets. It was an early stage of his poetic career where there he produced rich poetic verses and employed the Arabic Terminology "Arq e Infaal" for first time. It was all of sudden that all the audience applaused and appreciated Allama Muhammad Iqbal for a timely use of Arabic Terminology" Arq e Infaal". There, Mirza Arshad Gormani forecasted that Allama Muhammad Iqbal shall become a great poet. This Article shall highlight some Arabic Terminology employed by Allama Muhammad Iqbal in his Urdu poetry
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
