Analysis of types of information in textual descriptions of computational workflows
This is data used to understand how people describe computational workflows using text. The data is from 2009 and is the basis for a small conference paper:

Not sure if this is still reproducible... especially because it's done by hand. But at least all of it is there
The Scientific Paper of the Future: OntoSoft Training
This presentation was developed to train scientists on best practices for digital scholarship, reproducibility, and data and software sharing. It was developed as part of the NSF EarthCube Initiative and funded under the OntoSoft project. More details about the project can be found at http://www.ontosoft.org/gpf.
A powerpoint version of the slides is available upon request from [email protected].
These OntoSoft training materials were developed and edited by Yolanda Gil (USC), with contributions from the OntoSoft team including Chris Duffy (PSU), Chris Mattmann (JPL), Scott Pechkam (CU), Ji-Hyun Oh (USC), Varun Ratnakar (USC), Erin Robinson (ESIP). They were significantly improved through input from pioneer authors Cedric David (JPL), Ibrahim Demir (UI), Bakinam Essawy (UV), Robinson W. Fulweiler (BU), Jon Goodall (UV), Leif Karlstrom (UO), Kyo Lee (JPL), Heath Mills (UH), Suzanne Pierce (UT), Allen Pope (CU), Mimi Tzeng (DISL), Karan Venayagamoorthy (CSU), Sandra Villamizar (UC), and Xuan Yu (UD). Others contributed with feedback on best practices, including Ruth Duerr (NSIDC), James Howison (UT), Matt Jones (UCSB), Lisa Kempler (Matworks), Kerstin Lehnert (LDEO), Matt Meyernick (NCAR), and Greg Wilson (Software Carpentry). These materials were also improved thanks to the many scientists and colleagues that have taken the training and asked hard questions.http://www.scientificpaperofthefuture.or

Reflections on Successful Research in Artificial Intelligence: An Interview with Yolanda Gil
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
I MONUMENTI AI SOVRANI SPAGNOLI IN SICILIA NELLA SECONDA METÀ DEL SEICENTO: IL CASO DI FILIPPO IV A PALERMO E DI CARLO II A MESSINA
I MONUMENTI AI SOVRANI SPAGNOLI IN SICILIA NELLA SECONDA METÀ DEL SEICENTO: IL CASO DI FILIPPO IV A PALERMO E DI CARLO II A MESSINA-Nella seconda metà del Settecento vennero eretti in Sicilia due grandiosi monumenti per celebrare gli ultimi re di Spagna della Casa d'Asburgo: il “teatro” di Filippo IV nel piano del palazzo Reale di Palermo (dal 1661) e il gruppo scultoreo con la statua equestre di Carlo II (dal 1680) nella piazza della cattedrale di Messina. I due monumenti rendevano omaggio in Sicilia, nei luoghi eletti simbolo del potere della corona spagnola, i trionfi di sovrani ancora in vita e secondo parametri compositivi articolati e meritevoli di attenzione. L’adozione di un repertorio figurativo nuovo e magnificente, in parte legato a modelli extraisolani, e la triplice valenza scultorea, architettonica e urbana posseduta da entrambi i monumenti costituiscono ulteriori ragioni che resero eccezionali i risultati raggiunti. Lo studio di questi nuovi monumenti impone poi di estendere i ragionamenti al contributo dei progettisti. In particolare consente di riflettere sulle procedure con le quali venivano selezionati gli artefici e affidati gli incarichi nella Sicilia del secondo Seicento, in un contesto professionale in cui appare dominante il ruolo degli scultori-architetti, come le vicende che legano i nomi di Carlo d’Aprile e di Giacomo Serpotta ai due monumenti studiati.THE MONUMENTS TO THE SPANISH KINGS IN SICILY IN THE SECOND HALF OF THE 17TH CENTURY : THE CASE OF FILIPPO IV IN PALERMO AND CARLO II IN MESSINA-Two imposing monuments were erected in Sicily in the second half of the 17th Century to celebrate the last kings of Spain belonging to the Asburgo family: the “theater” of Filippo IV, placed in the square in front of the Palermo Royal Palace (since 1661) and the equestrian statue of Charles II (since 1680), placed in the Messina Cathedral square. The two monuments paid homage in Sicily, in the chosen places as the symbol of the Spanish crown’s power, the kings’ triumphs still alive, according to articulated compositional parameters worthy of attention. The use of a new and magnificent figurative repertoire, partly linked to foreign models, and the triple sculptural, architectural and urban value possessed by both monuments establish additional reasons that made exceptional the results achieved. The study of these new monuments requires to extend the reasoning to the contribution of the designers and in particularly it allows to reflect on the procedures by which the architects were selected and engaged in Sicily of the second half of the 17th century, in a professional context in which the role of sculptors-architects appears dominant, like the stories that bind the names of Carlo d'Aprile and Giacomo Serpotta to the two monuments studied
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
