An Email Attachment is Worth a Thousand Words, or Is It?
There is an extensive body of research on Social Network Analysis (SNA) based
on the email archive. The network used in the analysis is generally extracted
either by capturing the email communication in From, To, Cc and Bcc email
header fields or by the entities contained in the email message. In the latter
case, the entities could be, for instance, the bag of words, url's, names,
phones, etc. It could also include the textual content of attachments, for
instance Microsoft Word documents, excel spreadsheets, or Adobe pdfs. The nodes
in this network represent users and entities. The edges represent communication
between users and relations to the entities. We suggest taking a different
approach to the network extraction and use attachments shared between users as
the edges. The motivation for this is two-fold. First, attachments represent
the "intimacy" manifestation of the relation's strength. Second, the
statistical analysis of private email archives that we collected and Enron
email corpus shows that the attachments contribute in average around 80-90% to
the archive's disk-space usage, which means that most of the data is presently
ignored in the SNA of email archives. Consequently, we hypothesize that this
approach might provide more insight into the social structure of the email
archive. We extract the communication and shared attachments networks from
Enron email corpus. We further analyze degree, betweenness, closeness, and
eigenvector centrality measures in both networks and review the differences and
what can be learned from them. We use nearest neighbor algorithm to generate
similarity groups for five Enron employees. The groups are consistent with
Enron's organizational chart, which validates our approach.Comment: 12 pages, 4 figures, 7 tables, IML'17, Liverpool, U
Inhibitive effect of ferrous gluconate on the electrochemical corrosion of aluminium alloy in H2SO4 solution
The use of ferrous gluconate as corrosion inhibitor on aluminium alloy in 0.5M H2SO4 solution was
studied using gravimetric and potentiodynamic polarization measurements. The surface morphology of
the aluminium alloy was studied after exposure to 0.5 M H2SO4 solution in the presence and absence of
inhibitor using high resolution scanning electron microscopy equipped with energy dispersive
spectroscopy (HRSEM – EDS). The adsorption behaviour of the inhibitor was investigated. The results of
the investigation show that increase in concentration of ferrous gluconate corresponds to an improvement
on inhibition efficiency. Equally, the results showed the ferrous gluconate to be an effective corrosion
inhibitor for the aluminium in the acidic medium. The results obtained from the two methods used were
found to correlate with each other
The Rise and Fall of Post—World War II Corporate Tax Reform
The United States is unique in subjecting corporate income to two layers of tax. In what is called a classical system, corporate income is taxed once at the entity level when earned and a second time at the individual level when distributed to shareholders in the form of a dividend. By contrast, in most other countries, corporate- and shareholder-level taxes are fully or partially integrated through some form of credit or deduction. America\u27s double taxation of corporate income is a much-criticized but persistent feature of its current tax system despite numerous reform proposals over the last half-century or so. Here, Bank discusses why dividend-tax relief was so long in coming, given the initial momentum for reform and determines what led dividend-tax reform to rise to the top of the agenda in 1954
