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
Suunnitelma isännöintitoimiston toiminnon sähköistämiseen : V-S Isännöintitalo Oy
Get PDFTämän opinnäytetyön tarkoituksena oli luoda suunnitelma toimeksiantajalle, V-S isännöintitalo Oy:lle, jotta tämän toimistoympäristön ja yritystoiminnan sähköistämistä saataisiin kehitettyä nykyaikaa vastaavaksi. Tavoitteena oli kannattava, käytännöllinen, lainmukainen ja ennen kaikkea toteuttamiskelpoinen suunnitelma, joka tultaisiin toteuttamaan vähintään osittain.
Työn teoriaosuudessa käydään läpi taloushallintoa pääpiirteittäin ja myös sähköisen taloushallinnon hyötyjä sekä sähköisen toiminnan laillisuutta, arkistoinnin tietoturvaa, henkilötietojen käsittelyä ja tietosuojaa. Teoriaosuudessa kerrotaan myös isännöinnistä ja isännöitsijän tehtävistä, sillä nämä ovat hyvin oleellinen osa opinnäytetyötä. Teoriaosuuden tarkoituksena on nostaa esille sähköisten toimintatapojen tuottamia etuja verrattuna osittain sähköiseen tai paperiseen toimintaan.
Empiirinen osa keskittyy täysin nykytilanteen ja nykyisten toimintatapojen kuvaamiseen sekä näille toimintatavoille luotuihin ehdotuksiin paremmista, suoraviivaisemmista ja kannattavista sähköisistä vaihtoehdoista. Opinnäytetyössä käytiin läpi sähköisen arkistoinnin toteuttamistapaa, jossa hyödynnettiin vaihtoehtona vanhojen paperiarkistojen digitoimista ja arkistoimista toimeksiantajan omille palvelimille. Tämän jälkeen käytiin läpi, mitä hyötyjä koituisi kaikkien allekirjoitusten tekemisestä jatkossa sähköisesti. Seuraavaksi käsiteltiin laskujen, yhtiökokouskutsujen ja muiden tiedotteiden postituksesta aiheutuvaa työmäärää sekä miten tätä työtä voitaisiin helpottaa ja suoraviivaistaa, ottamalla käyttöön laskutuslisä sekä ulkoistettu postituspalvelu. Viimeisimmäksi empiirisessä osassa käsiteltiin toimeksiantajan verkkoaseman kansiorakenteiden epäyhdenmukaisuutta, joka hankaloittaa työntekijöiden välistä tiedonhakua. Tätä varten on luotu ehdotus käyttöönotettavasta kansiorakenteesta, sekä luotu sen käyttöön sopiva ohjeistus.
Johtopäätöksenä voidaan todeta, että suunnitelma antaa toimeksiantajalle hyvät mahdollisuudet sähköisempään toimintaan, jonka avulla voitaisiin jopa tähdätä täyteen paperittomuuteen. Toimeksiantaja tulee todennäköisesti hyötymään suunnitelman toteuttamisesta, sillä siinä esitetyt sähköisyyttä ja digitaalisuutta hyödyntävät toimintatavat vähentävät monivaiheisten ja toistuvien rutiinitehtävien määrää korvaamalla ne suoraviivaisimmilla ja nopeammilla prosesseilla. Suunnitelman toteuttamisesta ei myöskään aiheudu suuria kustannuksia.The purpose of this thesis was to create a plan for V-S Isännöintitalo Oy, this thesis’
commissioner, so that their office environment and business activities could be digitized to further level, to match today’s standards. The goal was to create a cost-effective, practical, legal and above all an executable plan, that would be implemented at least partially.
The work’s theory part goes through the outlines of financial management and through digital finance service’s benefits as well as digital operation’s lawfulness, archiving’s information security, personal data management and data protection. The theory part also goes through estate management and estate manager’s tasks because they are very relevant part of this thesis. The theory part is supposed to bring out digital operation’s advantages compared to partially
digital or non-digital ways of operation.
The empiric part focuses completely on describing the present state of the company and its operation models as well as describing proposals for better more straight-lined and more cost-effective digital alternatives. The thesis went through a way of digital archiving that utilized digitizing old paper archives and archiving the digital copies to the commissioner’s own servers as an option. Afterwards the thesis went through what benefits would come of using e-signing for all signatures in the future. Next it covered the workload that consists of sending invoices, general meeting invitations and other notices and how that could be made easier and more straightforward by introducing an invoicing fee and an outsourced posting service. Lastly the empiric part handled the inconsistency of file structures on the commissioner’s network drive which makes information search between the workers more difficult. A proposal for a file structure to be used has been made along with instructions to go with it.
In conclusion the plan gives the commissioner a good potential for more digital ways of operation which could also be used to aim for full independency from paper. The commissioner will likely benefit from executing the plan because the digital ways of operations presented in it will decrease the amount of multi-step and repetitive routine tasks by replacing them with more straightforward and faster processes. Furthermore, executing the plan wouldn’t cause large amounts of expenses
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
