    El presente trabajo de investigación analiza la factibilidad de implementar un salón de belleza en el distrito de Carabayllo al norte de la ciudad de Lima. La primera razón para elegir esta ubicación es la necesidad de un establecimiento que ofrezca servicios de tratamiento de belleza femenina, donde las mujeres del distrito de más de 18 años, encuentren plena satisfacción de sus expectativas de estos servicios ofrecidos por ALANA – SALÓN DE BELLEZA. La segunda es que el autor es propietario de un local en el Gran Mercado Santa María de Carabayllo. Los servicios de ALANA – SALÓN DE BELLEZA estarán dirigidos a todas las mujeres residentes en Carabayllo que son aproximadamente 114 913, aunque nuestro segmento objetivo específico son aquellas que pertenecen a los estratos económicos más altos. La idea es ofrecer los servicios de belleza que buscan las mujeres, en un local de agradable ambientación, que sea punto de encuentro y, al mismo tiempo, colme sus expectativas. Estos objetivos serán logrados cuidando aspectos que interesan a las mujeres al elegir un salón de belleza que son, calidad de servicio y calidad de atención. Los competidores de ALANA – SALÓN DE BELLEZA son salones tradicionales que ofrecen servicios similares pero no la ambientación, ni calidad de atención y servicio que ofreceremos.

    During the year 2015, the environment surrounding America Movil Peru S.A.C. was characterized by high competition which generated a price war that affected all telecommunications operators and reduced drastically their levels of profitability. Under these circumstances, the company had been losing EBITDA points dramatically. Not being able to find the remedy through the income recovery option, America Movil initiated a search of options and projects within each department, that would become the main focus of each team during the ongoing year and the years to come. In 2011 America Movil Peru (Claro) merged with Telmex Peru, company owned by the same enterprise group, telecommunications fixed services supplier. As a result of this merge, and later absorption, Claro inherits from Telmex a property of almost 35 000 sqmts located at Avenida El Sol in the district of Villa El Salvador, where Telmex warehouses were operating managed by a third-party vendor. For this reason, the logistics department, whose duties included warehouses administration and distribution, proposed to the general management a savings project consisting of removing all inventories in the Ransa facilities and relocating them in a new warehouse that Claro would build at the newly obtained property in Villa El Salvador. This proposal would bring annual savings of about 3 000 000 US dollars that was the cost that Ransa represented to Claro in Lima operation. Additionally, all warehousing and distribution processes would be reviewed finding in them improvement opportunities that were put into effect with the consequent savings they provided. The required investment for the construction and implementation of this warehouse was 3 000 000 US dollars. That means that OPEX was replaced by CAPEX in search of the objective. The total logistics expenses, that at the end of the year 2014 had reached 104 million soles, became a total of 53 million soles by the end of the year 2019, as a result of all the implemented improvements.En el año 2015 el entorno por el que atravesaba la empresa América Móvil Perú S.A.C. era de alta competencia la cual generó una guerra de precios que afectó a los operadores de telecomunicaciones reduciendo drásticamente sus niveles de rentabilidad. Bajo esta coyuntura, la empresa venía perdiendo puntos de EBITDA de manera dramática y al no encontrar el remedio por la vía de recuperar los ingresos, inició una búsqueda de opciones o proyectos en cada área que se plantearan como uno de los objetivos más importantes de cada una en el año en curso y los venideros. En el año 2011 América Móvil Perú (Claro) se había fusionado con la empresa Telmex Perú, del mismo grupo empresarial, proveedor de servicios fijos de telecomunicaciones. Como parte de esta fusión, y posterior absorción, Claro hereda de Telmex un predio de 35 000 m2 ubicado en la avenida El Sol del distrito de Villa El Salvador. En este predio funcionaban los almacenes de la empresa Telmex y esta operación era administrada por un tercero. Es así que, desde el área de logística, que incluía la administración de los almacenes y la distribución, se presenta a la dirección general un proyecto de ahorro consistente en dejar las instalaciones físicas de la empresa Ransa en la ciudad de Lima y trasladar todos los inventarios almacenados en ella a un nuevo almacén que la empresa debiera construir en el predio de Villa El Salvador. Esta propuesta traería el ahorro de 3 millones de dólares anuales que era el costo que para Claro representaba Ransa en Lima. Adicionalmente, serían revisados todos los procesos de almacenamiento y distribución encontrándose oportunidades que fueron aprovechadas para su mejora con los consecuentes ahorros que estas significaron. La inversión requerida para la construcción e implementación de ese almacén fue de 3 000 000 de dólares. Es decir, el CAPEX reemplazó al OPEX en la búsqueda del objetivo. Los gastos totales de logística que, en el año 2014, habían alcanzado a ser aproximadamente 104 000 000 de soles terminaron el año 2019 en un monto de gasto total de 53 000 000 de soles, como resultado de las mejoras implementadas

    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

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    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

    We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
