Abstract: The structure and infrastructure of the Mexican technical
literature was determined. A representative database of technical articles
was extracted from the Science Citation Index for the year 2002, with each
article containing at least one author with a Mexican address. Many
different manual and statistical clustering methods were used to identify
the structure of the technical literature (especially the science and
technology core competencies). One of the pervasive technical topics
identified from the clustering, thin films research, was analyzed further
using bibliometrics, in order to identify the infrastructure of this
technology. Published by Elsevier Inc.

Author Keywords: Mexico; science and technology; bibliometrics;
computational linguistics; core competencies; research evaluation; factor
analysis; concept clustering; document clustering; data compression;
network analysis; Leximancer; CLUTO; greedy string tiling
