Extended Deadline: Science & Technology Metrics 2019
by Francis Jayakanth 04 Oct '19

04 Oct '19

From: fgct(a)socio.org.uk <fgct(a)socio.org.uk> Sent: 04 October 2019 12:37 First International Conference on Science & Technology Metrics (STMet 2019) Kasetsart University, Bangkok, Thailand December 02-04, 2019 (www.socio.org.uk/stm<http://www.socio.org.uk/stm>) Building metrics is the key to science and technology measurement and translating the measures to work better. Metric is not confined to draw numbers and analyze. Selecting a metric depends on synthesizing multiple directions and evidence-based data. Producing benchmarks and standards in science and technology evaluation and implementing them with real data, mark the full-fledged system. Quite recently, we are witnessing the emergence of new metrics-based models aiming to reflect science and technology growth. The proposed Science and Technology Metrics (STMet 2019) conference is concerned with how the use of many metrics may involve the assessment of different aspects of science and technology which are best expressed using different approaches. Besides the standard conference track and the Doctoral Symposium, the STMetrics will host a number of workshops and tutorials related to the theme of the conference. The purpose of the workshops is to provide participants with a friendly, interactive atmosphere for presenting novel ideas and discussing their application of metrics in Science and Technology System. The goal of the tutorials is to enable the participants to familiarise themselves with theoretical as well as practical aspects and application of metrics. The proposed conference consists of invited talks, presentations, tutorials, workshops and discussions. The STMet has tracks on specialized topics. The STMet address the below themes, not limited to, Citation-based metrics Ranking Systems Ranking of Journals, Institutions, and Countries Discipline and Domain Analysis Economic factors Databases and datasets for evaluation Evaluation Tools and Indicators Web-based metrics Visibility and impact Internationalization Text-based Metrics Innovation indicators Wearable Devices Open data Scientific Collaboration and cooperation analysis National Evaluation Systems Open access and open publishing New indices for evaluation Altmetrics Web-based metrics Data Science and Digital Repositories Scientific Visualization e-Science in the Cloud Scientific Journalism Scientific Publications Track 1: Open Science Science relies on the sharing of ideas, research results, data, and methods. Quite often many scientific discoveries and innovations fail to reach the society because of the closed scientific publications. If Science is built based on existing knowledge it needs to reach every one and hence Open Science leads the knowledge transaction. This track addresses the challenges and issues and pave the way to develop and nurture open science. Track 2: Peer Review Peer review is the process by which experts critically examine the research contributions using standard metrics. Peer review helps maintain and enhance quality both directly by detecting weaknesses and errors in specific works. These reviews enable to decide publication, research grants, employment, promotion, and tenure. Peer review promotes accountability and improves the quality of work. Track 3: Content and Text mining based metrics This track enables to present works that use numeric indices to process unstructured (textual) information and to build various data mining (statistical and machine learning) algorithms. Information can be extracted to derive summaries for the words contained in the documents or to compute summaries for the documents based on the words contained in them. One can analyze words, clusters of words used in documents, and we could analyze documents and determine similarities between them or how they are related to other variables. The studies of text mining will “turn text into numbers” (meaningful indices), which can then be incorporated in other analyses. All submitted papers will be reviewed by a double-blind (at least three reviewers), and participative peer review. The review process will enable the selection process of those that will be accepted for their presentation at the international conference. Authors of accepted papers who registered in the conference can have access to the evaluations and possible feedback provided by the reviewers who recommended the acceptance of their papers, so they can accordingly improve the final version of their papers. Mentoring support is available to young researchers and authors of developing countries. Track 4: Technology Transfer Metrics The technology transfer enables the outreach of the research outcomes to a wider level. The technology transfer measures are of interest to practitioners, program managers, and policymakers in the evaluation of technology transfer programs. Building metrics can lead to a better measurement of effectiveness, efficiency, and return on investment. The introduction of newer metrics will be helpful to identify the benchmarking tools. The proposed track will discuss the currently existing metrics and the research on the development of new metrics as well as their applications. Chair: Mohammad Hassanzadeh, Tarbiat Modares University, Iran Track 5: Open Science Metrics The primary goal of this track is to enable to construct, identify, and specify relevant metrics and indicators for open science. Measuring the extent of openness in science and creating or using metrics is important. Measuring Open science help to realize the innovation. We can thus find how collaboration and knowledge sharing occurs and how institutions work on it. Openness also yields enormous data and knowledge. This track gauge using available data about openness in science. The post-conference modified versions of the papers will be published in the following journals. 1. Journal of Digital Information Management 2. Journal of Contemporary Eastern Asia 3. Special Section in Research Evaluation 4. Journal of Scientometric Research 5. Malaysian Journal of Library & Information Science 6. International Journal of Computational Linguistics Research Features Online presentation is available for the authors who do not come physically to present the papers. Mentorship programs are available to young authors to improve the quality of submissions. Discounted accommodation is available at the University home Indian Authors will get 50% further discounted registration fees Important Dates Full Paper Submission October 15, 2019 Notification of Acceptance/Rejection November 05, 2019 Registration Due November 25, 2019 Camera Ready Due November 25, 2019 Workshops/Tutorials/Demos December 03, 2019 Main conference December 02-04, 2019 Paper submission: http://socio.org.uk/stm/paper-submission/ Contact: stm(a)socio.org.uk<mailto:stm@socio.org.uk> -----------------------------

Down With Dewey
by madhan muthu 04 Oct '19

04 Oct '19

Down With Dewey In June, the American Library Association stripped a familiar name from one of its top leadership honors: the Melvil Dewey Medal. As you may recall from grade school, Dewey was the man behind the Dewey Decimal Classification system, the schema of numbers and subject areas used at libraries around the world to categorize books. Founder of the nation’s first library school, co-founder of the ALA itself, and onetime director of the New York State Library, he’s usually revered as a library icon, his name perhaps the one most strongly associated with the institution. So what drove librarians to erase it from their own award? https://slate.com/human-interest/2019/09/melvil-dewey-american-library-asso… -- Madhan, M

SEMINAR-6 (2018-2020) TITLE: SEARCH ENGINE OPTIMIZATION
by Sagar Gajbe 01 Oct '19

01 Oct '19

*Documentation Research and Training Centre (DRTC)* Indian Statistical Institute 8th Mile, Mysore Road, RVCE Post Bangalore – 560059 *SEMINAR-6 (2018-2020) TITLE: SEARCH ENGINE OPTIMIZATION* *Abstract* The aim of this seminar is to examine the different factors involved in search engine optimization, a mechanism for improving the overall information retrieval process in the context of web search. Search engines continue to be the most popular tool which enables us to scour the internet for all the relevant information that is needed. Hence for the rapid retrieval of the pertinent piece of fact or data, proper indexing of webpages is extremely essential. One of the most powerful ways of doing that is using Search Engine Optimization. Using a host of different parameters such as content quality, metadata description and keyword analysis within a page, site structure and sitemap, SEO enables the search engine to rank the websites in an order which will be the most useful for the user, increasing the productivity of the search engine. The visibility in the web pages further helps to achieve two important areas of study in the library and information science, i.e., findability and reusability of information or contents. In the case of digital libraries, the role of SEO becomes all the more important, since one of the most important purposes of a digital library is to make the best information available to the user in the least amount of time. *Speaker*: Swagata Rana *Coordinator*: Dr. Biswanath Dutta *Date*: 03-10-2019 *Venue*: DRTC Classroom (G-16), ISI Bangalore -- *With Regards,* *Sagar Gajbe.* *Documentation Research and Training Centre,Indian Statistical Institute, Bangalore.* -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
