Second, to present a novel mapping approach to identify technology-relevant research based on the papers cited by and referring to the SNPRs. Design/methodology/approach: In the review part we discuss the context of SNPRs such as the time lags between scientific achievements and inventions. Also patent-to-patent citation is addressed particularly because this type of patent citation analysis is a major element in the assessment of the economic value of patents. We also review the research on the role of universities and researchers in technological development, with important issues such as universities as sources of technological knowledge and inventor-author relations. We conclude the review part of this paper with an overview of recent research on mapping and network analysis of the science and technology interface and of technological progress in interaction with science. In the second part we apply new techniques for the direct visualization of the cited and citing relations of SNPRs, the mapping of the landscape around SNPRs by bibliographic coupling and co-citation analysis, and the mapping of the conceptual environment of SNPRs by keyword co-occurrence analysis. Findings: We discuss several properties of SNPRs. Only a small minority of publications covered by the Web of Science or Scopus are cited by patents, about 3%-4%. However, for publications based on university-industry collaboration the number of SNPRs is considerably higher, around 15%. The proposed mapping methodology based on a "second order SNPR approach" enables a better assessment of the technological relevance of research. Research limitations: The main limitation is that a more advanced merging of patent and publication data, in particular unification of author and inventor names, in still a necessity. Practical implications: The proposed mapping methodology enables the creation of a database of technology-relevant papers (TRPs). In a bibliometric assessment the publications of research groups, research programs or institutes can be matched with the TRPs and thus the extent to which the work of groups, programs or institutes are relevant for technological development can be measured. Originality/value: The review part examines a wide range of findings in the research of patent citation analysis. The mapping approach to identify a broad range of technologyrelevant papers is novel and offers new opportunities in research evaluation practices.展开更多

It is often stated that SNA research has experienced rapid growth in China over these years, but few studies have been conducted to prove the statement. This paper aims at exploring the research status and development of SNA in China by a critical assessment of journal articles. Our findings show that SNA is an evolving and diversified research area which has rich themes and topics, and can be applied to those studies on different levels, context and disciplines, and attract researchers and scholars from various fields and domains. In addition, the information community(Library & Information Science and Information Systems) plays a leading role in the SNA related researches. The paper also points out the research on SNA in China has some limitations, so it proposes several implications for the future development of SNA research from perspectives of information science.展开更多

This kind of detector belongs to non-automatic weighing instrument, and certain problems will inevitably occur in the actual use process. At present, with the continuous improvement of social economy in our country, the production and ownership of automobiles are in the process of rapid development, and the safety performance of automobiles has also received increasing attention. However, the actual inspection of the axle wheel weight gauge is mainly to check whether the braking force of the motor vehicle can meet the corresponding standard, which plays a very important role in ensuring the safety performance of the whole vehicle. In recent years, relevant motor vehicle safety inspection agencies have used various inspection standards, from the initial GB 21861-2014, GB 7258-2017 safety inspection standard and GB 18565-2016 comprehensive inspection standard to the current revision of GB 3847-2018 and GB 18285-2018 environmental inspection standards. With the continuous revision of comprehensive inspection standards, the demand for talents of relevant motor vehicle safety inspection agencies is getting higher and higher. Only when the comprehensive ability of relevant staff is continuously improved, can they better deal with the inaccurate and unreliable inspection results of motor vehicle safety inspection agencies. Based on this, this paper studies the evaluation of measurement uncertainty of indication value of special axle (wheel) gravimeter for motor vehicle testing, for reference.展开更多

It distinguishes three dimensions, including in an original way, data as a main dimension, together with theory and methodology. Each dimension of the framework is further characterized by three main building blocks: education, research, and innovation (theory); efficiency, effectiveness, and impact (methodology); and availability, interoperability, and "unit-free" property (data). The different dimensions and their nine constituent building blocks are attributes of an overarching concept, denoted as "quality." Three additional quality attributes are identified as implementation factors (tailorability, transparency, and openness) and three "enabling" conditions (convergence, mixed methods, and knowledge infrastructures) complete the fi-amework. A framework is required to develop models of metrics. Models of metrics are necessary to assess the meaning, validity, and robustness of metrics. The proposed framework can be a useful reference for the development of the ethics of research evaluation. It can act as a common denominator for different analytical levels and relevant aspects and is able to embrace many different and heterogeneous streams of literature. Directions for future research are provided.展开更多

Of special interest, we share an enriched visualization of research co-authoring patterns. Design/methodology/approach: We compile publications by 45 researchers in each of 1) the iUTAH project, which we consider here to be analogous to a "research center," 2) CG1-a comparison group of participants in two other Utah environmental research centers, and 3) CG2--a comparison group of Utah university environmental researchers not associated with a research center. We draw bibliometric data from Web of Science and from Google Scholar. We gather publications for a period before iUTAH had been established (2010-2012) and a period after (2014-2016). We compare these research outputs in terms of publications and citations thereto. We also measure interdisciplinarity using Integration scoring and generate science overlay maps to locate the research publications across disciplines. Findings: We find that participation in the iUTAH project appears to increase research outputs (publications in the After period) and increase research citation rates relative to the comparison group researchers (although CG 1 research remains most cited, as it was in the Before period). Most notably, participation in iUTAH markedly increases co-authoring among researchers--in general; and for junior, as well as senior, faculty; for men and women: across organizations; and across disciplines. Research limitations: The quasi-experimental design necessarily generates suggestive, not definitively causal, findings because of the imperfect controls. Practical implications: This study demonstrates a viable approach for research assessment of a center or program for which random assignment of control groups is not possible. It illustrates use of bibliometric indicators to inform R&D program management. Originality/value: New visualizations of researcher collaboration provide compelling comparisons of the extent and nature of social networking among target cohorts.展开更多

In this respect, we use scientometric measures associated with faculties of medicine in the six health studies universities in Romania.Design/methodology/approach: The method to estimate the minimum necessary size, proposed in in Shen et al.(2017), is applied in this article. We collected data from the Scopus data-base for the academics of the departments of medicine within the six health studies universities in Romania during the 2009 to 2014. And two kind of statistic treatments based on that method are implemented, pair-wise comparison and one-to-the-rest comparison. All the results of these comparisons are shown.Findings: According to the results: We deem that Cluj and Tg. Mure? have the superior and inferior performance respectively, since their reasonably small value of the minimum representative size, in either of the kinds of comparison, whichever indexes of citations, h-index, or g-index is used. we can not reliably distinguish differences among the rest of the faculties, since the quite large value of their minimum representative size.Research limitations: There is only six faculties of medicine in health studies universities in Romania are analyzed.Practical implications: Our methods of comparison play an important role in ranking data sets associated with different collective units, such as faculties, universities, institutions, based on some aggregate scores like mean and totality. Originality/value: We applied the minimum representative size to a new emprical context- that of the departments of medicine in the health studies universities in Romania.展开更多

Practical implications: This study demonstrates a viable approach for research assessment of a center or program for which random assignment of control groups is not possible. It illustrates use of bibliometric indicators to inform R&D program management. Originality/value: New visualizations of researcher collaboration provide compelling comparisons of the extent and nature of social networking among target cohorts.
文摘Purpose: The main goal of this study is to provide reliable comparison of performance in higher education. In this respect, we use scientometric measures associated with faculties of medicine in the six health studies universities in Romania.Design/methodology/approach: The method to estimate the minimum necessary size, proposed in in Shen et al.(2017), is applied in this article. We collected data from the Scopus data-base for the academics of the departments of medicine within the six health studies universities in Romania during the 2009 to 2014. And two kind of statistic treatments based on that method are implemented, pair-wise comparison and one-to-the-rest comparison. All the results of these comparisons are shown.Findings: According to the results: We deem that Cluj and Tg. Mure? have the superior and inferior performance respectively, since their reasonably small value of the minimum representative size, in either of the kinds of comparison, whichever indexes of citations, h-index, or g-index is used. we can not reliably distinguish differences among the rest of the faculties, since the quite large value of their minimum representative size.Research limitations: There is only six faculties of medicine in health studies universities in Romania are analyzed.Practical implications: Our methods of comparison play an important role in ranking data sets associated with different collective units, such as faculties, universities, institutions, based on some aggregate scores like mean and totality. Originality/value: We applied the minimum representative size to a new emprical context- that of the departments of medicine in the health studies universities in Romania.
文摘On the basis of research evaluation of Chinese universities,Golden Apple Ranking(GAR)was initiated by Research Center of Chinese Science Evaluation(RCCSE)at Wuhan University in 2003.The GAR consists of four major rankings:Chinese University Ranking,Chinese Graduate School Ranking,World University Ranking and Scholarly Journal Ranking.The annual reports of all these four rankings are published bythe Science Press,which have been recognized by the academia and China's government.
文摘Based on the data of 13 eco-environmental indicators of 14 prefecture level cities in Hunan Province from 2014 to 2018,this paper quantitatively evaluated the eco-environmental competitiveness and its advantages and disadvantages by principal component analysis(PCA).The results showed that:(1)the overall ecoenvironmental competitiveness of Hunan Province was relatively high,whereas the competitiveness level of each city and prefecture was quite different.The comprehensive score of eco-environmental competitiveness of Changsha City was 2.96,ranking the first,and Zhangjiajie city ranking the last with a score of-1.60,which indicated that there was an obvious difference in the level of eco-environmental competitiveness among different regions.(2)The overall eco-environmental competitiveness of cities and prefectures in Western Hunan Province was weak.Among the 14 prefectures and cities in Hunan Province,the comprehensive scores of eco-environmental competitiveness of 6 prefectures and cities were negative,whereas the scores of Zhangjiajie,Xiangxi and Huaihua in Western Hunan were all lower than the others.In the face of increasingly serious environmental problems,cities and prefectures should adjust measures according to local conditions and put forward specific measures to enhance environmental competitiveness.In particular,cities and prefectures in Western Hunan should give full play to their advantages in ecological resources,take the path of green development,enhance the competitiveness of ecological environment,and provide support for local economic development.
文摘The scientific literature presents a modest amount ot evidence m the use or complementary ana al[erna- tire medicine (CAM). On the other hand, in practice, relevant results are common. The debates among CAM practitioners about the quality and execution of scientific research are important, Therefore, the aim of this review is to gather, synthesize and describe the differentiated methodological models that encompass the complexity of therapeutic interventions. The process of bringing evidence-based medicine into clinical practice in CAM is essential for the growth and strengthening of complementary medicines worldwide.
