Agarwal, P; Searls, DB. 2009. Can literature analysis identify innovation drivers in drug discovery?. NATURE REVIEWS DRUG DISCOVERY 8 (11): 865-878

[K S Chudamani]

The same has been observed long back by Chudamani and Asundi. It has been 
reported in a paper submitted OCLC- DRTC workshop on electronic resource 
management. In the paper we have said that there will be core and non core 
areas of thrust. The title of the paper is " Use of a 
Knowledge Base of Subject Relationship for Enhancing Retrieval Performance 
in the Digital Environment". It is available in the DRTC LDL digital 
Library
