citation analysis; scientific collaboration 

Abstract: A novel subject-delineation strategy has been developed for the 
retrieval of the core literature in bioinformatics. The strategy combines 
textual components with bibliometric, citation-based techniques. This 
bibliometrics-aided search strategy is applied to the 1980-2004 annual 
volumes of the Web of Science. Retrieved literature has undergone a 
structural as well as quantitative analysis. Patterns of national 
publication activity, citation impact and international collaboration are 
analysed for the 1990s and the new millennium.
