For instance, the hate crimes bill will finally become law (unless the two chambers fail to resolve a technical squabble over authorship).
Thus, the technification and standardisation of the object is paralleled by technical forms of authorship (Foucault 1969/1994), where author names are basically used to facilitate retrieval (as search terms) or quality assessment (of research groups) or as shorthand for theorems, syndromes or instruments (eponymy).
Technical components of the authorship analysis algorithm itself may be also be improved; for example, the current decision tree classifier may be replaced with a more scalable SVM classifier in the future [2].
Offer your academic support in reading papers and reports, helping with analyses or technical work, without expecting authorship or recognition.
These technical assistance do not qualify for co-authorship since data accrual, analysis, interpretation and write was done solely by the author.
We discuss the definition and ethical requirements of authorship, offer a case example of the authorship debate created by a technical tool at our institution, and review parallels that support and dispute the authorship claims of our software developers.
We see in the categorizations and authorship of the Treatise a polarization between two groups whom can be called Masters textualists and technical experts.
Ultimately, we conclude that development of a technical tool that enables data collection does not adequately substitute for contributions to study design and manuscript preparation for authorship purposes.
"Little by little, across time, and across geography, researchers build up an understanding of the unique technical features of specific artists," write the MFAH conservators, "which contributes to all kinds of problem-solving including aspects of authorship and authenticity, as well as a fuller appreciation of original technique and a deeper understanding of aging characteristics".
While they provided feedback and revisions regarding the technical aspects of the experiments to be performed by TransViragen, they do not feel that their contributions are sufficient to warrant authorship.
