Dear Prof. Borner,
my name is Irina Marshakova-Shaikevich. I am sending some my maps of science published in the large period from 1970-2010. Maybe those maps will be interesing for you.
Best regards,
Irina M-Sh
The maps of Laser research is presented at dr Garfield web site

>>Call
for Maps for the 10th Iteration of the Places
& Spaces: Mapping Science Exhibit on “The
Future of Science Mapping” (2014) http://www.scimaps.org/call
>>
>>Background
and Goals
>>The Places & Spaces: Mapping Science exhibit was
created to inspire cross-disciplinary discussion on how to
best track and communicate human activity and scientific
progress on a global scale. It has two components: (1)
physical exhibits enable the close inspection of high- quality
reproductions of large-scale maps for display at public places
such as science museums and libraries as well as at
conferences and (2) the online counterpart ( http://scimaps.org ) provides easy access to zoomable maps,
their descriptions and references as well as information on
their makers.
>>Places
& Spaces is a 10-year effort. Each year,
10 new maps are added, which will result in 100 maps total in
2014. Each iteration of the exhibit attempts to highlight
outstanding examples of visualization design. To accomplish
this goal, each iteration compares and contrasts four existing
maps with six new maps of science. Themes for the different
iterations are:
>>* 1st Iteration (2005): The Power
of Maps
>>* 2nd Iteration (2006): The Power
of Reference Systems
>>* 3rd Iteration (2007): The Power
of Forecasts
>>* 4th Iteration (2008): Science
Maps for Economic Decision Makers
>>* 5th Iteration (2009): Science
Maps for Science Policy Makers
>>* 6th Iteration (2010): Science
Maps for Scholars
>>* 7th Iteration (2011): Science
Maps as Visual Interfaces to Digital Libraries
>>* 8th Iteration (2012): Science
Maps for Kids
>>* 9th Iteration (2013): Science
Maps Showing Trends and Dynamics
>>* 10th Iteration (2014): The
Future of Science Mapping
>>
>>Places & Spaces was first shown at the Annual
Meeting of the Association of American Geographers in April
2005. Since then, the physical exhibit has been displayed at
over 250 venues in 23 countries, including 15 in Europe, as
well as Japan, China, Brazil, Chile, South Africa, Australia,
Canada, and the United States. A schedule of all display
locations can be found at http://scimaps.org/exhibitions . Submission
Details
>>The 10th
and final iteration of the exhibit is devoted to maps of
science that point to the future of the practice itself. Micro
to macro studies using quantitative and/or qualitative data
are welcome, and mixed methods approaches are encouraged. Maps
should be understandable by a general audience and might
answer questions such as:
>>* How
does the structure and dynamics of science evolve?
>>* How
does science interact with technology?
>>* How can
developments in science and technology be communicated to a
general audience?
>>* How can
maps of science achieve more extensive and more accurate
coverage?
>>* How can
maps of science be updated in near-real time?
>>* How
does science overlap with other areas of human endeavor and
interest?
>>* How do predictions of scientific
developments impact the course of history—i.e., can
self-fulfilling prophecies be prevented?
>>To fit
the theme of the 10 th iteration, submissions should
innovate on one or more topics such as:
>>* New
data sources—social media, stock market, philanthropy, and
other data that captures S&T activities.
>>* New
hardware and software setups—multi-modal man-machine
symbioses that combine analog human wet-ware and digital
computer hard+software to achieve superior capabilities.
>>* Proof
of concept—science maps that are widely used.
>>* Validation—results
of user evaluation and algorithm cross-validation studies.
>>* Standards—well
defined, widely shared data formats, analysis and
visualization workflows, but also visual languages.
>>
>>Given the topic of this iteration, two types of submissions
are welcome: (1) Photographs or conceptual sketches of future
innovative science map usage—see Otlet’s Mondothèque for inspiration. Ideally, the
proposed interface or novel usage are
paradigm-shifting—disruptive ideas are most welcome. (2) A visual rendering of a
dataset together with a legend, textual description, and
acknowledgements as required to interpret the map. Maps can be
abstract, geographical, or feature-based (e.g., network
layout), but are typically richer than simple x-y plots. Data
can be used to generate a reference system over which other
data—e.g., career trajectories—are overlaid. Data can also be
projected onto an existing reference system (e.g., a map of
the world). Maps should present fully formed ideas and
analysis; they should not be simple sketches of “what we plan
to do.” See this PDF map collection for an overview of the 90 maps
already featured in the exhibit. Given the theme of this
iteration, links to interactive web sites, hands-on displays,
or interactive tools are strongly encouraged.
>>Each initial entry must be
submitted by January 31st, 2014, and needs to include:
>>* Low-resolution version of map
>>* Title of work
>>* Author(s) name, email address,
affiliation, mailing address
>>* Copyright holder (if different
from authors)
>>* Description of work: learning
objectives addressed, data used, data analysis,
visualization techniques applied, and main insights gained
(100-300 words)
>>* References to publications or
online sites in which the map appeared
>>* Links to related projects/works
>>* At least three keywords
>>
>>Entries should be submitted via EasyChair by clicking here . Submit map as pdf file. Enter
author info, a title, and three keywords. Submit all other
information via the ‘Abstract’ field. Review
Process
>>All
submissions will be reviewed by the exhibit advisory board.
Submissions will be evaluated in terms of
>>* Scientific value —quality of data collection, analysis and
communication of results in support of clearly stated
learning objectives. Appropriate and innovative application
of existing algorithms and/or development of new approaches.
This criteria includes the notion of relevance—submissions
should showcase the “future".
>>* Value for decision making —what major insight does the
map provide and why does it matter? Is the map easy to
understand by a general audience? Does it inspire viewers to
learn more about science and technology?
>>Final
Submission
>>Authors of winning entries will be contacted in late February
and invited to submit final entries by April 30th, 2014. Each
final entry should consist of:
>>* Title of Work
>>* Author(s) name, email address,
affiliation, mailing address
>>* 24 x 30 inch, 300 dpi,
landscape version of map using provided template at http://scimaps.org/exhibit/images/Matte_300DPI.psd (13.9 MB)
>>* Official map description (200
words)
>>* Biographies for all authors
(about 100 words each)
>>* High resolution portraits of
all authors that are no smaller than 360 x 450 pixels, or
1.2" x 1.5" at 300 dpi. Larger is always better since we can
always crop them down to our specific needs for both print
and web.
>>* Signed copyright and
reproduction agreement
>>
>>Map makers are welcome to use the expertise and resources of
the exhibit curators and designers when designing and
producing high resolution versions of final maps. The layout
and production of the 10th iteration maps are expected to be
ready for display by mid-June, 2014.
>>Winning
mapmakers will be invited to submit a ~1500 word paper for
inclusion in a special Places
& Spaces edition (October 2014) of the ASIST
Bulletin, which is widely read, referenced, and used in
classrooms. These papers should include the information from
the official map description along with additional detail on
data, methods, and how the maps and visuals can be
interpreted. Submissions will be due by June 30, 2014. Boyack
and Börner, the editors of the special issue, will work
closely with the authors to create copy-ready papers. Important
