ABSTRACT:       This paper presents a new approach whose aim is to extent
the scope of Webometrics by providing it with new knowledge extraction
and visualization capabilities. An application of this approach on a
dataset of websites issued from European universities is presented. The
basic model which is considered in this paper is a multi-topographic
neural network model. The powerful features of this model are its
generalization mechanism and its mechanism of communication between
topographies. These two mechanisms allow rule extraction to be performed
whenever a single viewpoint or multiple viewpoints on the same data are
considered. The association rule extraction is itself based on original
quality measures which evaluate to what extent a numerical classification
model behaves as a natural symbolic classifier such as a Galois lattice.
The visualization of the results of the analyses is based on an original
hyperbolic approach.

ABSTRACT:       A number of studies can be found in the literature about
analyzing scientific collaboration networks through coauthorship but very
few have examined the reflection of these networks on the Web. In this
paper the collaboration between 80 German institutions of immunology is
analyzed, including gender collaboration. The percentage of co-authored
papers visible on the Web increased from 1997 to 2002. In this connection
the visualized Web network in 2002 is slightly more similar to the
bibliographic co-authorship network than in 1997. Highly productive
institutions have a higher central position in both collaboration
networks and consequently greater influence on the entire scientific
community than the lower productive institutions. The contribution of
female members of the German Society of Immunology in both the
bibliographic and Web networks is very low in relation to the male
counterparts. That corresponds with general results of a large gender
study conducted by the European Commission.

TITLE:          Higher education and research collaboration between Iran
                and UK (Article, English)

ABSTRACT:       This paper aims to display Iran's collaborations based on
previous research findings and introduces the recent international
collaboration programs with emphasis on UK collaborations. It was found
that Iran's scientific productivity and collaboration has sharply
increased in the last five years comparing with her performance in the
last decades. England was Iran's second major collaborative country
during 1985-2003.

KEYWORDS+:       GEOGRAPHICAL PROXIMITY

ABSTRACT:       The hypothesis that in recent years geographical
proximity has become less important for research collaboration was tested
and confirmed for papers co-authored by researchers at German
immunological institutes in 1997 and 2002. Mean and median of distances
between German immunological institutes weighted with the number of
coauthored papers are greater in 2002 than in 1997. The un-weighted
distance distribution of collaboration relations established between
these institutes, however, has not changed significantly during the five
years. In addition, productivity distributions of institutes have been
found to be lognormal.

KEYWORDS+:       SCIENTIFIC COLLABORATION

ABSTRACT:       Presents the authorship pattern and collaborative
research in six social science subjects viz. Anthropology, Economics,
History, Political Science, Psychology and Sociology in India based on
the data collected from CDROM version of the Wilson Social Sciences
Abstracts of H.W. Wilson Co., US for the year 1989-1991 and 1997-1999.
The proportion of collaborative publication has shown a consistent growth
with time in all the four subjects except Political Science and
Sociology. The trend in the computed values of Collaboration Index (CI)
and Degree of Collaboration (DC) of different period blocks is almost
consistent, reflecting growing collaboration and pointing towards
increasing professionalisation in social sciences in India with time.

ABSTRACT:       The science and technology is being practised today in a
collaborative manner with participation of scientists from different
disciplines, institutions and countries. To combat the problems of
pollution, environment, energy, biodiversity, health, nutrition, etc.,
many countries in the world, particularly the developing countries, need
the cooperation and support of other countries. In this paper, a study on
the outputs of S&T collaborations among South Asian countries is
presented through the analysis of co-authored research papers published
during the period 1994-2004 in the journals covered by the Web of Science
(Extended Science Citation Index). The study analysis these
collaborations from various angles, viz, nature, S&T areas, institutions
involved and their impact on individual fields.
