Upowszechnianie wyników badań naukowych w międzynarodowych bazach danych : analiza biometryczna na przykładzie nauk technicznych, ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem elektrotechniki
The issues of bibliometrics, scientometrics, informetrics and webometrics have an important
place among research subject undertaken by Polish and foreign scholars. Initially,
these notions were used only by researchers in the fields of library science, scientometrics
and information science. However, at the turn of the 20th and 21st centuries, quantitative
methods became a fundamental tool for evaluation of, among others, sources of academic
communication, academic research, research and academic centers. One of the elements of
the evaluation is a quantitative analysis of academic publications in databases with international
access. It is of particular importance in the case of technical sciences. This work is
an attempt at a quantitative analysis of publications by Polish authors (affiliated to Polish
technical universities) and Polish journals on electrotechnics in international databases. The
contents are organized into four chapters with an introduction, conclusions, bibliography,
name index and a list of figures and illustrations. Chapters one and two are devoted to
theoretical issues, whereas chapters three and four – to practical issues.
In the first chapter, selected issues concerning quantitative methods were presented,
including an analysis of literature and a discussion over terminology carried out in book
publications and journals. Moreover, selected examples of research conducted with the use
of quantitative methods (including rankings and scientific reports) were discussed in this
chapter). In chapter two, sources of information on academic publications, their origins
and development (from bibliographic bases to citation indexes) were presented. A separate
subchapter was devoted to databases of academic publications created by libraries of technical
universities, and to indicators in the assessment of academic publications.
Chapter three deals with electrotechnics as a field of science. An analysis was conducted
with regard to the place of electrotechnics in science classifications based on selected
examples, and the development of the teaching of electrotechnics at university level was
shown. In this chapter, early and contemporary Polish journals on electrotechnics were
presented, including journals published by technical universities themselves.
Chapter four contains the results of an analysis of international databases (Scopus,
WoS, CC), focusing on the representation of Polish journals, including their citations, and
publications of authors with affiliation to Polish technical universities. Final conclusions of research and analyses have brought an answer to questions raised
with regard to the assessment of representation in international databases of publications
by Polish authors affiliated to Polish technical universities (in its various aspects, e.g.,
a publication type, language of publication, publication dynamics taking into account years
of publications, cooperation with representatives of other European and non-European
countries), and of Polish journals
High-Performance Modelling and Simulation for Big Data Applications
This open access book was prepared as a Final Publication of the COST Action IC1406 “High-Performance Modelling and Simulation for Big Data Applications (cHiPSet)“ project. Long considered important pillars of the scientific method, Modelling and Simulation have evolved from traditional discrete numerical methods to complex data-intensive continuous analytical optimisations. Resolution, scale, and accuracy have become essential to predict and analyse natural and complex systems in science and engineering. When their level of abstraction raises to have a better discernment of the domain at hand, their representation gets increasingly demanding for computational and data resources. On the other hand, High Performance Computing typically entails the effective use of parallel and distributed processing units coupled with efficient storage, communication and visualisation systems to underpin complex data-intensive applications in distinct scientific and technical domains. It is then arguably required to have a seamless interaction of High Performance Computing with Modelling and Simulation in order to store, compute, analyse, and visualise large data sets in science and engineering. Funded by the European Commission, cHiPSet has provided a dynamic trans-European forum for their members and distinguished guests to openly discuss novel perspectives and topics of interests for these two communities. This cHiPSet compendium presents a set of selected case studies related to healthcare, biological data, computational advertising, multimedia, finance, bioinformatics, and telecommunications

WSN based sensing model for smart crowd movement with identification: a conceptual model
With the advancement of IT and increase in world population rate, Crowd Management (CM) has become a subject undergoing intense study among researchers. Technology provides fast and easily available means of transport and, up-to-date information access to the people that causes crowd at public places. This imposes a big challenge for crowd safety and security at public places such as airports, railway stations and check points. For example, the crowd of pilgrims during Hajj and Ummrah while crossing the borders of Makkah, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. To minimize the risk of such crowd safety and security identification and verification of people is necessary which causes unwanted increment in processing time. It is observed that managing crowd during specific time period (Hajj and Ummrah) with identification and verification is a challenge. At present, many advanced technologies such as Internet of Things (IoT) are being used to solve the crowed management problem with minimal processing time. In this paper, we have presented a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) based conceptual model for smart crowd movement with minimal processing time for people identification. This handles the crowd by forming groups and provides proactive support to handle them in organized manner. As a result, crowd can be managed to move safely from one place to another with group identification. The group identification minimizes the processing time and move the crowd in smart way
