Historic windows: conservation or replacement. What's the most sustainable intervention? Legislative situation, case studies and current researches
No full textThere is a definite need to improve the thermal performance of existing buildings in order to reduce carbon emissions and slow climate change. However, a sensible balance is needed when we are dealing with historic architectures. For example, as opposed to the general belief prevailing now, the replacement of windows is not necessarily an energy-saving solution, as a result of rash replacements irreplaceable values are ruined for good.That’s why the aim of this article is to collect and order recent data, to offer the results of the researches carried out in different countries to have the basis to discuss the question in a scientific and clear way and, if possible, to try to express strategies and alternative solutions in comparison with the more common type of interventions actually used. Fortunately the results of the researches in this topic confirm that the preservation and upgrading of traditional windows could be advantageous from the aspect of energy-saving and, of course, is respectful of the Built Heritage

Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe 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
