科学覆盖图:研究政策和图书馆管理的新工具
Science overlay maps: a new tool for research policy and library management
摘要:
我们提出了一种新颖的方法来直观地定位科学研究机构,无论是在每一个时刻的时间和动态。本文描述了这种方法如何与其他努力相适应,以绘制本地和全球科学产出。然后,我们展示了这些科学覆盖图如何帮助基准,探索合作,并跟踪时间变化,使用大学,公司,资助机构和研究课题的例子。我们讨论应用条件,及其优点,缺点和局限性。叠加地图特别有助于调查越来越多的科学发展和不适合传统学科类别的组织。我们提供这些工具,以帮助研究人员探索科学和技术系统正在进行的社会认知转型。
英文摘要:
We present a novel approach to visually locate bodies of research within the sciences, both at each moment of time and dynamically. This article describes how this approach fits with other efforts to locally and globally map scientific outputs. We then show how these science overlay maps help benchmark, explore collaborations, and track temporal changes, using examples of universities, corporations, funding agencies, and research topics. We address conditions of application, with their advantages, downsides and limitations. Overlay maps especially help investigate the increasing number of scientific developments and organisations that do not fit within traditional disciplinary categories. We make these tools accessible to help researchers explore the ongoing socio-cognitive transformation of science and technology systems.
