    No full text
    DigitalEl presente proyecto tiene como objetivo principal fortalecer la imagen institucional de la Universidad de Santander, sede Valledupar, mediante el diseño de piezas gráficas reutilizables y contenido visual adaptado a sus diversos canales de comunicación. Se busca estandarizar la identidad visual de la institución, optimizar la producción de piezas comunicativas y reforzar su presencia digital, utilizando para ello principios de diseño y una metodología proyectual. Esta propuesta se concibe como un apoyo operativo al sistema de comunicación institucional, con el fin de permitir una respuesta más ágil, coherente y contextualizada a las necesidades de la comunidad universitaria local. Actualmente, la producción de piezas gráficas en la sede Valledupar se gestiona a través de solicitudes dirigidas a la oficina de diseño en la sede principal en Bucaramanga. Aunque este modelo garantiza la coherencia visual, puede generar tiempos de espera que dificultan la atención inmediata de las necesidades comunicativas locales. Reconociendo esta realidad, el trabajo de grado plantea una propuesta de fortalecimiento operativo orientada a diseñar soluciones visuales reutilizables y alineadas con la identidad institucional. El objetivo es complementar el modelo actual mediante herramientas gráficas adaptables, que permitan a la sede Valledupar atender con mayor agilidad las solicitudes frecuentes de su comunidad, sin comprometer la unidad gráfica de la institución. La iniciativa busca contribuir constructivamente al flujo de trabajo de la oficina de comunicaciones local, optimizando tiempos de respuesta, ampliando la presencia visual en canales digitales y mejorando la interacción con públicos internos y externos desde una perspectiva territorial. En este contexto, las piezas institucionales no solo cumplen la función de informar, sino que también refuerzan la imagen corporativa y consolidan los mensajes que la institución desea proyectar a sus distintos públicos.The main objective of this project is to strengthen the institutional image of the University of Santander, Valledupar campus, through the design of reusable graphic elements and visual content adapted to its various communication channels. The goal is to standardize the institution's visual identity, optimize the production of communication elements, and strengthen its digital presence, utilizing design principles and a design methodology. This proposal is conceived as operational support for the institutional communication system, enabling a more agile, coherent, and contextualized response to the needs of the local university community. Currently, the production of graphic pieces at the Valledupar campus is managed through requests addressed to the design office at the main campus in Bucaramanga. Although this model ensures visual consistency, it can generate wait times that hinder the immediate response to local communication needs. Recognizing this reality, the thesis presents a proposal for operational strengthening aimed at designing reusable visual solutions aligned with the institutional identity. The objective is to complement the current model with adaptable graphic tools that will allow the Valledupar campus to more quickly respond to frequent requests from its community without compromising the institution's graphic unity. The initiative seeks to constructively contribute to the local communications office's workflow, optimizing response times, expanding the visual presence on digital channels, and improving interaction with internal and external audiences from a regional perspective. In this context, institutional pieces not only serve the purpose of providing information, but also reinforce the corporate image and consolidate the messages the institution wishes to project to its various audiences.Introducción 17 Planteamiento del Problema 19 Justificación 20 Objetivos 22 Objetivo General 22 Objetivos Específicos 22 Estado del Arte 23 Metodología 25 Cronograma de Actividades 29 Desarrollo de la Propuesta de Intervención 30 Título de la Propuesta 30 Objetivo General de la Propuesta 30 Objetivos Específicos de la Propuesta 30 Resultados 32 Conclusiones 39 Recomendaciones 41 Capacitar al Personal en el uso de Herramientas de Diseño Colaborativo 41 Consolidar un Banco Institucional de Recursos Audiovisuales 41 Fortalecer la Estrategia Audiovisual para Redes Sociales 41 Coordinar con la Sede Principal para Mantener Coherencia Gráfica Institucional 41PregradoDiseñador Grafic

    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

    Get PDF
    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

    Get PDF
    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

    koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist

    No full text
    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

    Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902

    No full text
    In Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
