Abstract:
In a technological society such as Canada, it is suggested that a specialized kind of expert citizenship is needed (Andrew Feenberg). In the era of big data, others suggest that there is a need to learn how to read algorithms and to study its high priests and alchemists (Genevieve Bell). While, doing citizenship requires a political ethics of technology to thwart technological and quantitative fundamentalism (Darin Barney). Finally, in the midst of a data revolution we need to critically re-conceptualize data (Rob Kitchin). Quite simply, in today's Canada doing citizenship requires data literacy, technical, philosophical and political. Access to print media - books, government documents, academic journals - in libraries and archives enabled a literate society, the prerequisite of a democratic system. I argue that good governance in knowledge producing institutions, is to have technological experts, both data creators and preservers, working to store, manage, disseminate and preserve data so that we have the requisite artifacts to increase our literacy and build upon collected knowledge. Data literacy I suggest, is indispensable in the current democratic system, and that requires having access to data, data infrastructures - knowledge and technology - and dedicated skilled people and resources to sustainably care for them. I consider research data management to be our duty.

CitNetExplorer: A new software tool for analyzing and visualizing citation ne...Nees Jan van Eck
CitNetExplorer is a software tool for visualizing and analyzing citation networks of scientific publications. The tool allows citation networks to be imported directly from the Web of Science database. Citation networks can be explored interactively, for instance by drilling down into a network and by identifying clusters of closely related publications.
This tutorial deals with two software tools: VOSviewer and CitNetExplorer. VOSviewer (www.vosviewer.com) is a freely available tool for constructing and visualizing bibliographic coupling, co-citation, co-authorship, and term co-occurrence networks. These networks can be constructed based on data downloaded from Web of Science or Scopus. CitNetExplorer (www.citnetexplorer.nl) is a freely available tool for analyzing and visualizing citation networks of publications.
The aim of the tutorial is to provide the participants with a basic knowledge of VOSviewer and CitNetExplorer. Given time constraints, it will not be possible to explore the two tools in a fully comprehensive way, but the tutorial will offer a thorough introduction into the most essential features of the tools. This should be sufficient for the participants to perform all basic analyses that can be done using VOSviewer and CitNetExplorer. In addition, it should allow the participants to independently explore the tools in more detail.
The lecturers are Nees Jan van Eck and Ludo Waltman, both affiliated to the Centre for Science and Technology Studies (CWTS) of Leiden University. Nees Jan and Ludo are the developers and VOSviewer and CitNetExplorer, and they therefore have an in-depth knowledge of both software tools. Nees Jan and Ludo regularly organize courses and workshops on VOSviewer and CitNetExplorer (see for instance www.cwts.nl/Bibliometric-Network-Analysis-and-Science-Mapping-Using-VOSviewer), so they have a lot of experience in training people in the use of these tools.
Network visualization: Fine-tuning layout techniques for different types of n...Nees Jan van Eck
An important issue in network visualization is the problem of obtaining a good layout for a network. For a given network, which may be either weighted or unweighted, the problem is to position the nodes in the network in a two-dimensional space in such a way that an attractive layout is obtained. Many layout techniques have been proposed [1]. In the visualization of bibliometric networks, multidimensional scaling and the layout technique of Kamada and Kawai [2] have for instance been used a lot. More recently, the VOS (visualization of similarities) layout technique [3], implemented in our VOSviewer software (www.vosviewer.com) [4], is often used for bibliometric network visualization.
There is no layout technique that is generally considered to give optimal results. One reason for this is that comparisons between layouts produced by different techniques involve a lot of subjectiveness. Someone may consider one layout to be more attractive than another, but someone else may have an opposite opinion on this. In addition, the attractiveness of a layout may depend on the type of visualization that is needed. For instance, some layouts may be more attractive for interactive visualizations (e.g., in a software tool with zooming functionality), while other layouts may be more attractive for static visualizations. Furthermore, different types of networks may benefit from different layout techniques.
In recent studies [5, 6], the idea of parameterized layout techniques has been introduced. Parameterized layout techniques produce different types of layouts depending on the values chosen for their parameters. In this research, we present a comprehensive study of a parameterized version of our VOS layout technique. Two parameters are included. Like in [5], these are referred to as attraction and repulsion parameters. We compare the layouts obtained for different parameter values. Comparisons are made both subjectively using the VOSviewer software (i.e., which layout do we find most appealing?) and more objectively using so-called meta-criteria [6, 7]. Sensitivity to local optima is taken into account as well. Comparisons are made for all important types of bibliometric networks, in particular co-authorship, citation, co-citation, bibliographic coupling, and co-occurrence networks. Both smaller and larger networks are considered.
Applications of community detection in bibliometric network analysisNees Jan van Eck
In this talk, we focus on the analysis of bibliometric networks, and in particular on the detection of communities in these networks. We start by demonstrating VOSviewer, a popular software tool for visualizing bibliometric networks. We discuss the techniques used by VOSviewer for visualizing bibliometric networks and for detecting communities in these networks. We pay special attention to the close relationship between visualization and community detection, and we discuss the unified approach to visualization and community detection that is implemented in VOSviewer. We then shift our attention to community detection in very large citation networks, including millions of publications and hundreds of millions of citation relations. We show how community detection techniques can be used to construct highly detailed classification systems of science. We also discuss applications of such classification systems to science policy questions. Finally, we demonstrate CitNetExplorer, a new software tool in which community detection techniques are used to support the large-scale analysis of citation networks. We use CitNetExplorer to analyze the citation network of publications on network science and in particular on community detection.

A systematic empirical comparison of different approaches for normalizing cit...Nees Jan van Eck
We address the question how citation-based bibliometric indicators can best be normalized to ensure fair comparisons between publications from different scientific fields and different years. In a systematic large-scale empirical analysis, we compare a traditional normalization approach based on a field classification system with three source normalization approaches. We pay special attention to the selection of the publications included in the analysis. Publications in national scientific journals, popular scientific magazines, and trade magazines are not included. Unlike earlier studies, we use algorithmically constructed classification systems to evaluate the different normalization approaches. Our analysis shows that a source normalization approach based on the recently introduced idea of fractional citation counting does not perform well. Two other source normalization approaches generally outperform the classification-system-based normalization approach that we study. Our analysis therefore offers considerable support for the use of source-normalized bibliometric indicators.

In this talk, an introduction is given into two software tools that have been developed for bibliometric analysis of scientific publications: VOSviewer (www.vosviewer.com) and CitNetExplorer (www.citnetexplorer.nl). VOSviewer is a popular tool that can be used for visualizing bibliometric networks of citation relations between publications, authors, and journals. In addition, the tool can be used for creating so-called term map visualizations based on a text mining analysis of the titles and abstracts of publications. The most important terms occurring in titles and abstract are identified and the co-occurrence relations between these terms are visualized. CitNetExplorer is a tool for the visualization and analysis of citation networks of scientific publications. The tool can be used to explore in detail how publications build on each other, as indicated by citation links. It is also possible to drill down into specific areas within a citation network, making it possible to perform micro-level analyses of the development of a particular area of research. In this talk, special attention will be paid to possible applications of VOSviewer and CitNetExplorer in humanities research, focusing in particular on the use of advanced text mining, network analysis, and visualization techniques for analyzing large quantities of textual data.
Nees Jan van Eck is a researcher at the Centre for Science and Technology Studies (CWTS) of Leiden University. His research focuses on the quantitative analysis of scientific research based on large amounts of bibliographic data and using sophisticated techniques from fields such as network analysis, statistics, and machine learning. Together with his colleague Ludo Waltman, Nees Jan has developed the VOSviewer and CitNetExplorer tools.

Digital Transformation in Higher Education – New Cohorts, New Requirements?. Konstantin L. Wilms & others
ABstract
Digital transformation refers to changes that digital technologies cause and that influence various aspects of human life. Previous researchers mainly focused on the impact of the digital transformation in the context of commercial organisations and business processes. In this study, we aim to examine how digital transformation affects universities and students. We examine differences and changes in the usage of collaboration and communication platforms between different groups of members at the university and within the university lifecycle. To gain new insights, a qualitative case study with semi-structured interviews was conducted. One of the main results shows that Bachelor and Master students prefer the usage of social network sites for collaboration and communication while Ph.D. students and employees do not. Even though an increasing number of modern platforms for direct communication is offered, the results show that the communication between the groups of students and employees still takes place via email.

ABSTRACT : Computational social science (CSS) is an academic discipline that combines the traditional social sciences with computer science. While social scientists provide research questions, data sources, and acquisition methods, computer scientists contribute mathematical models and computational tools. CSS uses computationally methods and statistical tools to analyze and model social phenomena, social structures, and human social behavior. The purpose of this paper is to provide a brief introduction to computational social science.
Key Words: computational social science, social-computational systems, social simulation models, agent-based models

Another Interdisciplinary Transformation: Beyond an Area-studies JournalHan Woo PARK
Journal of Contemporary Eastern Asia (ISSN 2383-9449) is a refereed biannual journal that takes a lead on a new scholarship in Asia. In the past, the JCEA was dedicated to the study of current political, social and economic trends in East and Southeast Asia. But now, the JCEA finds unique aspects of Asian scholarship by expanding its scope to (socio-technical) convergence and future (network) studies. The JCEA editors are working very hard to boost the scholarly presence of new Asian scholarship around the world and secure its reputation as an emerging world-class publishing outlet. The editors welcome manuscripts based on original research or significant reexamination of existing literature.
암호화폐에 대해 적극 규제 입장을 보이는 정부에 대해 아쉬움을 드러내며 청와대에 규제 반대 청원을 낸 영남대 사이버감성연구소 박한우 교수. 국내 빅 데이터 연구 권위자로 잘 알려진 그는 지금까지 100여 편에 달하는 관련 논문을 게재하며 빅 데이터를 통해 사회를 해석하고 있는 학자다. 게다가 빅 데이터를 활용한 여론조사 특허까지 획득하며 빅 데이터 연구의 체계를 잡아가고 있다. 그런 그가 암호화폐 규제 반대에 대한 이유와 블록체인 기술과 정부가 해야 할 일에 대해 의견을 들었다.
1. 청와대에 가상화폐 규제를 반대하는 청원을 낸 것으로 알고 있다. 가상화폐 규제에 반대 하는 이유는 무엇인가
가상화페는 오역된 단어이다. 엄격히 말하면, 암호화폐가 맞다. 세계 암호화페 시장은 기축통화인 비트코인 그리고 이더리움 등 알트코인을 포함하면 약 700여 개가 등록되어 있다. 앞으로 3,000여 개가 등록 준비 중이다. 우리나라도 미래자산으로서 비트코인 거래가 활성화되고 있다. 현재 암호화폐 시장에 특히 한국시장에 유독 과열이 심한 건 맞다고 본다. 상징적인 가격대인 1만 달러를 넘으면서 우리나라 뿐 아니라 전 세계 각국에서도 고민이 커져가고 있는 것도 사실이다. 그러나 문재인 정부가 이러한 트렌드에 제대로 부응하려면, 암호화폐 분야의 세계적 동향과 국내 현황 간 미스매치를 언급하며 정책적 지원이 필요함을 역설해야지 규제를 말할 단계가 아니다.
close
2. 가상화폐 규제 시 어떤 문제점이 발생할 것이라 예상되는가
신호등 효과가 발생할 것이다. 청색등에서 적색으로 바뀌기 전 황색등 기간에 더 많은 부작용이 생겨날 것이다. 일확천금의 마지막 기회라고 생각해서 시장이 더 불안정해질 것이며, 아노미 상태가 될 것이다. 규제의 근거로서 청소년과 주부의 무분별한 투기행태를 언급하는 것은 적폐대상인 탁상행정을 다시 보여주는 것이다. 2018년 중등 교육과정에 코딩수업이 정규과정으로 포함된다. 코딩수업에서 우리의 청소년이 꿈꾸어야 할 직업은 무엇인가? 그것은 바로 글로벌 경쟁력을 지닌 암호화폐를 개발하는 것이다. 이더리움은 러시아 프로그래머인 비탈릭 부테린이 개발했다. 고학력의 경력단절 여성들이 육아와 가사를 병행하면서 할 수 있는 무엇인가? 모바일 금융거래사로서 새로운 사회적 성장동력이 되는 것이다. 상황이 이러함에도 불구하고, 새로운 정부는 기술의 편의성과 위험성 이슈를 운운하는 구태를 드러내고 있다, 기능이 겹치거나 기술이 완성되지 못한 암호화폐는 자연도태 되게 되어있다. 정부에서도 무조건적인 투자, 투기라기보다는 위험성을 제대로 알려주면서 암호화폐의 건전한 발전을 위한 제도를 만들어 나가는 게 필요하다고 본다. 암호화폐나 블록체인이 우리 국가를 어떻게 더 나은 사회로 만들 수 있는지에 대해 새로운 정책을 만들고 그 정책에 따라 규제를 연결지어 나오는게 더 올바르지 않을까 생각한다.
close
3. 암호화폐와 블록체인 기술의 가능성에 대해 어떻게 보고있는가
미국 시카고 선물시장에서 비트코인 거래가 개시되었다. 이것이 암호화폐의 제도권 진입을 공식화하지는 않지만, 신기루처럼 허구는 아닐 수 있다는 것을 드러낸다. 2018년에는 비트코인 거래의 대중화와 캐쉬리스 모바일 지불결제의 확산될 것이다. 또한 비트코인을 이용한 개인-개인(P2P) 사이트가 생겨나면서 중고물품과 디지털콘텐츠 거래시스템 활용논의가 중요하게 등장할 것이다. 또한 블록체인의 질적 성장을 통해 탈중앙화를 가속화 시키고 국가가 분산, 투명, 협력 되는 생태계를 만들어 내는 기회를 삼을 수 있으리라 생각한다. 4차산업 혁명에서 가장 핵심이 되는 기술이 공정성과 신뢰성을 가진 연결 융합 플랫폼을 구현하는 것이라고 본다.
4. 정부는 블록체인 기술 발전을 위해 어떤 역할을 해야 한다고 생각하는가
블록체인 기술이 발전하기 위해서는 암호화폐가 반드시 필요하다. 암호화폐와 블록체인은 한 몸이라 보면 된다. 암호화폐에 심각한 규제를 가하기 시작하면 블록체인 기술을 통해 4차 산업을 육성하는 것은 불가능하다고 볼 수 있다.
비트코인 광풍의 이면에 대기업에서 운영하는 암호화폐 거래소의 사회적 책임의식 부재와 이용자 미보호가 심각한 문제로 등장하는 것이 핵심 트렌드임을 깨달아야 한다. 나아가, 소득이 있는 곳에 세금이 있다는 원칙을 지키면 된다. 거래소 개설 이후의 소득에 대해서는 세금을 부과해야 한다. 하지만 주택임대사업자처럼 일정금액 이상은 부가세를 면제하여 개미투자자들을 보호하면 된다. 이것은 문재인 정부가 추구하는 정의로운 나라와 궤를 같이 하는 것이다.
나아가 블록체인에 대한 세계적 관심이 더 높아지면서 관련 원천기술의 확보방안이 주요 이슈로 부상될 것이다. Lisk coin은 독일 베를린에 오미세고는 태국 방콕, 라이트코인은 싱가폴에 본부를 두고 있다

2016년 촛불집회는 과거와 달리 수도권뿐만 아니라 지방에서도 전개되었다. 그러나 서울 광화
문 광장 이외에서 진행된 촛불집회에 대한 사회적 관심은 그 중요성에 비해서 주목받지 못했다.
이 연구는 지방의 촛불집회 특히, 대통령의 정치적 고향인 대구·경북(TK) 촛불집회에 주목하였
다. 본 논문은 페이스북에 남겨진 데이터를 이용해 촛불집회에 나타난 TK지역 여론의 행위자와
댓글의 내용을 검토한다. 첫째, 페이지의 운영주체에 따라 페이스북 이용자 행위의 차이가 있는
지 살펴보았다. 둘째, 집회유형에 따른 댓글의 의견과 그 전개양상이 다른지 살펴보았다. 분석방
법으로 이용자 반응분석, 연결망분석(social network analysis), 의미망분석이 사용되었다. 연구결과,
페이스북 이용자들의 관심도, 참여율, 응집도는 전통 미디어에서 운영한 페이지보다 시민참여형
UCC(user created content) 페이지에서 높게 나타났다. 집회유형으로 보면, 촛불집회 댓글들과 비
교해 ‘박사모’ 반응에서 노인폄하 단어 등 부정적 단어들이 더 자주 출현했다. 이 연구는 페이스
북 댓글 데이터를 이용해서 기존에 자주 수행된 마케팅과 선거캠페인을 넘어서 새로운 연구방향
을 제시했다는 점에서 학술적 의미뿐만 아니라 사회적 가치가 있다.

Levelwise PageRank with Loop-Based Dead End Handling Strategy : SHORT REPORT ...Subhajit Sahu
Abstract — Levelwise PageRank is an alternative method of PageRank computation which decomposes the input graph into a directed acyclic block-graph of strongly connected components, and processes them in topological order, one level at a time. This enables calculation for ranks in a distributed fashion without per-iteration communication, unlike the standard method where all vertices are processed in each iteration. It however comes with a precondition of the absence of dead ends in the input graph. Here, the native non-distributed performance of Levelwise PageRank was compared against Monolithic PageRank on a CPU as well as a GPU. To ensure a fair comparison, Monolithic PageRank was also performed on a graph where vertices were split by components. Results indicate that Levelwise PageRank is about as fast as Monolithic PageRank on the CPU, but quite a bit slower on the GPU. Slowdown on the GPU is likely caused by a large submission of small workloads, and expected to be non-issue when the computation is performed on massive graphs.

Abstract
The network of international co-authorship relations has been dominated by certain European nations and the USA, but
this network is rapidly expanding at the global level. Between 40 and 50 countries appear in the center of the international
network in 2011, and almost all (201) nations are nowadays involved in international collaboration. In this brief communica-
tion, we present both a global map with the functionality of a Google Map (zooming, etc.) and network maps based on nor-
malized relations. These maps reveal complementary aspects of the network. International collaboration in the generation
of knowledge claims (that is, the context of discovery) changes the structural layering of the sciences. Previously, validation
was at the global level and discovery more dependent on local contexts. This changing relationship between the geographi-
cal and intellectual dimensions of the sciences also has implications for national science policies.

Resumen
La red internacional de relaciones de coautoría ha estado dominada por algunos países europeos y los Estados Unidos, pero
se está expandiendo rápidamente a nivel mundial. En 2011 aparecen en el centro de la red internacional entre 40 y 50 paí-
ses, y casi todos (201) participan de la colaboración internacional. En esta breve comunicación se presenta tanto un mapa
mundial con la funcionalidad de Google Map (zoom, etc.) como mapas de red con relaciones normalizadas que revelan
aspectos complementarios. La colaboración internacional en la generación de conocimiento (es decir, el contexto de des-
cubrimiento) es responsable de cambiar la estratificación estructural de las ciencias. Anteriormente era la validación la que
estaba a nivel mundial, y el descubrimiento dependía más de los contextos locales. Este cambio en la relación entre las di-
mensiones geográficas e intelectuales de las ciencias también tiene implicaciones sobre las políticas científicas nacionales..

Introduction
International collaboration in science has increased rapidly
in recent decades (NSB, 2012, at pp. 5-37 ff.). One driver
of this development has been the efforts of the European
Commission to stimulate collaboration within the European
Union across sectors and nations (Glänzel; Schlemmer,
2007); but this development also self-organizes at the glo-
bal level of the United States and other advanced industrial
nations for reasons driven by the demands of science. Mass
data storage, scientific “grand challenges,” electronic com-
munications (Barjak et al., 2013), and less expensive tra-
vel may also be among the drivers and facilitators (Adams,
2012). Some governments of notably smaller nations (e.g.,
South Korea; cf. Kwon et al., 2012) invest purposefully in the
stimulation of “internationalization.”
The implications are profound for governance of the scien-
ces as well as knowledge creation, since the context of dis-
covery is no longer local or institutionalized disciplinarily in
university departments (Gibbons et al., 1994). For example,
Kwon et al. (2012) found that international co-authorship
relations in South Korea have considerably been increa-
sed since the late 1900s while national collaborations has
steadily declined. Zhou & Glänzel (2010) and Leydesdorff
& Sun (2009) showed that the national publication systems
of both China and Japan have gained a synergy from foreign
co-authorship relationships. But it is still debatable whether
international collaboration is positively associated with the
quality of scientific outputs in terms of citation impact when
controlling for countries and fields (Persson et al., 2004;
Persson, 2010).
Coauthorship relations are a most formal indicator of inter-
national collaboration. Scientific collaborations may lead to
a number of outcomes of which a co-authored paper is only
one (Laudel, 2002; Katz; Martin, 1997). However, from the
perspective of the development of the sciences as publica-
tion systems, the submission of manuscripts containing new
knowledge claims is the crucial outcome. Furthermore, we
acknowledge that coauthorship in itself does not imply that
collaboration has occurred (Woolgar, 1976). It represents
outcomes that the listed authors jointly view as notable,
which serves as a socio-cognitive filter on the multitude of
relations in the social context of discovery (Melin; Persson,
1996).
No researcher unnecessarily shares authorship and thus
collaborative publication can be considered as an indica-
tor of esteem and shared intellectual contributions. From a
methodological perspective, coauthorship counts have the
advantage of being reproducible over time and traceable

year-on-year. The network of coauthorship relations offers
a perspective on the ranks and positions of countries which
provides an alternative to ranking shares of publications and
citations.
Wagner & Leydesdorff (2005) suggested that international
collaboration tends to free scholars from local constraints
such as funding by national government agencies and social
(linguistic, cultural) contexts having a direct impact on in-
tellectual agendas. Wagner (2008) hypothesized the emer-
ging layer of international collaborations as a “new invisible
college” (cf. Crane, 1972). Leydesdorff & Wagner (2008),
however, noted the formation of a central group of highly
functioning nations while other nations tend to remain pe-
ripheral, possibly reinforcing a core-periphery model origi-
nally proposed by Ben-David (1971; cf. Choi, 2012; Schott,
1991). Using network statistics and cosine-normalization,
these authors identified a core set of 12 European nations,
the USA, and Russia in both 2005 and 2006, whereas other
countries (e.g., Canada, China, and Portugal) could be con-
sidered at that time as peripheral. Language can also be as-
sociated with disadvantages in terms of access, particularly
in the humanities and the social sciences (Larivière et al.,
2006), since most bibliographic databases are focused on
English literature.
In this study we present an update of the network for 2011
using the most recently available edition of the Science Ci-
tation Index (SCI). As previously, we use the DVD version of
this index containing 3,744 journals. This selection from the
8,336 journals covered by the Science Citation Index-Expan-
ded (SCI-E) at the Web of Science (WoS), can be considered
as the most policy-relevant because it includes the most

elite and highly cited of the refereed journals. The same
data is, for example, used for the Science and Engineering
Indicators series of the National Science Board of the USA
(NSB, 2012, at pp. 5-37 ff.), which also includes an index of
international collaborations for 2010 in tabular format. Our
study provides complementary network and visualization
techniques that enable the user to envisage the effects of
this globalization and additionally to zoom in to specific re-
gions and/or networks of specific nations (Wagner et al., in
preparation).
Methods and materials
One of us downloaded the entire set of the DVD-version of
the Science Citation Index 2011; this data was then brought
under the control of relational database management
(in the dbf-format using Flagship v7). The data contains
1,042,654 papers of which 778,988 fulfill two conditions:
(i) a country address is provided1
and (ii) they are part of
the subsets of (719,327; 69.0%) articles, (37,685; 3.6%) re-
views, and (29,989; 2.9%) letters. Ephemera (such as edi-
torial materials and meeting abstracts) were not included
in our analysis. In the download, 254 country names could
be distinguished, of which 201 valid entities were used as
variables to the (778,988) documents as units of analysis.
More than 99% of this data is in English!
An asymmetrical matrix of documents versus countries was
saved as a systems file in SPSS (v20) for generating, among
other things, a cosine matrix between the 201 variables
(countries). UCINet (v6.28) was used to generate a symme-
trical co-authorship matrix among countries (after changing
all values to binary) where a record with three addresses in

country A and two addresses in country B is counted as a
single relation between these two countries. (An affiliations
routine in social-network analysis would otherwise count
this as 3 x 2 = 6 relations.) Additionally, the papers were
fractionally counted: fractional counting means attribution
of each address to a paper proportional to the number of
addresses provided in the byline of the article. For example,
if two of the three addresses are in country A, the paper is
attributed for 2/3rd
to this country and for 1/3rd
to country B.
Among these papers 193,216 (that is, 24.8% of the 778,988
documents under study) were internationally coauthored
with 825,664 addresses (39.3% of 2,101,384). Note that
these numbers are somewhat greater than but not substan-
tially different from 2005, with 23.3% of the papers interna-
tionally coauthored carrying 36.5% of the addresses (Wag-
ner; Leydesdorff, 2008, at p. 319).
Both the co-occurrence matrix and the cosine-normalized
matrix were further processed in Pajek2
and VOSViewer3
for
the network analysis and visualization, respectively. Using
the GPS Visualizer at http://www.gpsvisualizer.com/map_
input?form=data and thresholds of minimally 500 fractiona-
lly-counted papers for each country and 500 international
relations for each link, a global map of international colla-
borations was generated; this map is available at http://
www.leydesdorff.net/intcoll/intcoll.htm. The links were not
weighted according to the number of coauthorship relations
because this would overload the visual. Instead, a legend is
inserted, and in the interactive format one can click on each
link to obtain the number of collaborations in a descriptor
of the Google Map.
Results
a. The geographical map
The global map of science at http://www.leydesdorff.net/
intcoll/intcoll.htm provides users with an overview and all
the functionalities of a Google Map, such as zooming and
tagging. For example, one can click on each node and obtain
the number of internationally coauthored papers based on
fractionally counted papers in the set of 778,988. The links
are all counted as unity (as explained above). Links can also
be clicked or read from the legend. The nodes are sized pro-
portionally to the logarithm of the number of papers.
As figure 1 shows, 440 of the 12,339 links between nations
surpass the threshold of more than 500 co-authorship re-
lations (of the [201 * 200 / 2] = 20,100 possible links); 53
nations are involved. Thus, international collaboration is
heavily concentrated. As an example, the link between
Canada-Sweden is highlighted in the descriptor and cente-
red in the legend table to figure 1. Visual inspection of the
map shows that from the sub-Saharan countries only South
Africa contributes, and within Latin America participation is
limited to Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Venezuela, and Mexico
(Wagner; Wong, 2012).
The network among EU nations is very dense. Integration
makes the USA appear to operate as another member sta-
te of the EU. (One can zoom in using Google Maps online.)
However, China has now become the first partner of the
USA in terms of international co-authorship (that is, 12,450
integer-counted papers against 11,337 coauthored with an
address in the UK). Recent accession countries (e.g., Roma-
nia and Bulgaria) are not connected
given the threshold of 500 links, and
smaller EU nations such as Cyprus (N =
406) and Malta (N = 70) are excluded
because of the size restriction on the
nodes. In fact, the EU-27 is not even
a complete network in this (2011) set
with at least one document coautho-
red between every country pair be-
cause of Malta and Luxembourg.
b. The network map
In a network map, two agents are po-
sitioned close to each other if they
communicate intensively, but not on
the basis of fixed (e.g., geographical)
coordinates. From this different pers-
pective, the USA would be more clo-
sely related to most EU countries than,
for example, nearby Serbia. One has
options to optimize the network visua-
lization based on individual relations
using a spring-based layout like that
provided by Kamada & Kawai (1989)
—available in Pajek— or in terms of
the distributions of relations. Two na-
tions may not relate intensively, but
may share a common pattern of re-
lations with third parties. The cosine-

normalization for size captures this comparison among dis-
tributions because the cosine can also be considered as a
proximity measure (comparable to the Pearson correlation,
but without the reference to the mean; cf. Ahlgren et al.,
2003).
Figure 2 shows the network of international coauthorship
relations among 190 countries. Some smaller nations (such
as Kosovo, Gibraltar, and the Netherlands Antilles) were
removed because they tend to distort the figure by pulling
the center towards outliers. The map shows the Anglo-
American countries on the right side of the figure as similar
in their collaboration patterns. In this projection, the Asian
nations are positioned towards the bottom-left side —with
the exception of Japan— with the nations of the Middle East
as a nearby cluster.
Continental Europe is in the middle. The European position
is caused by the dense network of collaborations among the
core EU nations (such as France, the Benelux countries, and
Germany). Portfolios of EU nations are influenced by the
funding of the European Commission’s science and cohesion
policies requiring collaboration. Japan is not visible on this
map because its node is hidden behind France in the center
area; the node and label for Japan can be made visible by
choosing the (alternative) “label view” in VOSViewer. Cer-
tain other nations such as Argentina, Brazil, and Mexico are
also related to this set, whereas Chile, for example, is more
exclusively related to Spain. The somewhat specific posi-
tions of Italy and Austria at the peripheries of this map are
noteworthy showing that the accession countries of Central
and Eastern Europe are integrated in a triangle involving
these two nations and Germany.
c. Center and periphery in the network
Figure 3 shows the network among 42 nations forming a
strong component in the network of international coauthor-
ship relations in 2011.
This figure shows the major players in the network in terms
of international coauthorship relations. In contrast to the
ranking of shares of publications in terms of addresses —
China is also second behind the USA in terms of fractional
counts— this figure shows, among other things, that China
is not (yet) so active in terms of international coauthorship
as are advanced industrial countries (e.g., the UK and Ger-
many; National Science Board, 2012, at p. 5-37; cf. Plume,
2011). However, in contrast to data examined in 2005/2006,
China is now part of the central group.
The polar position of France (at the bottom left) is notewor-
thy and can be considered as a consequence of its leading
position (along with Spain) in collaborations with Medite-
rranean and Romance-language-speaking countries. Despi-
te the nearly global use of English as the language of re-
search publication (99.1% in this data), there are still distinct
collaborative groupings of Francophone countries in Africa

and Luso-/Hispanophone nations in central and South Ame-
rica. These networks point to cultural and economic factors
underlying regional differentiation in the global patterns.
d. The international environments of nations
As noted, individual nations may not be visible on the glo-
bal map at http://www.leydesdorff.net/intcoll/intcoll.htm
because of insufficient representation with regard to thres-
holds. Regional analyses, with more relaxed thresholds on
volume of activity and collaboration, enable the user to
extend this analysis and show how countries may become
local hubs to emerging regional networks (Adams; King;
Hook, 2010; Adams et al., 2011).
Indonesia, for example, has 559 papers in the set, but frac-
tionally counted these add up to only 227.9 coauthored
documents. Using Pajek (or any other network analysis pro-
gram), the user can bring the co-authorship neighborhood
of a specific nation to the fore, as in figure 4 for Indonesia:
86 countries are included in this so-called ego-network, but
with (sometimes single) co-authorship relations.4
Although not a major player in the global science system,
Indonesia is strongly networked to the extent that on avera-
ge each paper is coauthored 2.5 times (= 559 / 227.9). The
main international relations are with advanced industrial
neighbors in the Asian-Pacific region, the USA, and specific
European nations. Many of these relations may be a con-
sequence of scholars having studied abroad as postdocs or
Ph.D. students.
Given the origin and readership of this journal, we were
asked to pay additional attention to Latin America, Spain,
and Portugal. Figure 5 provides the collaboration network
among these nations including some which can be conside-
red francophone (e.g., Haiti) or anglophone (e.g., Trinidad
Tobago), but which one can expect to be integrated in the
region.
Figure 5 first shows the much stronger connection between
Spain and Portugal —as both EU member states— when
compared with the linguistic relations overseas. Spain has
remained a hub between the EU and Latin America more
than Portugal (Glänzel et al., 2006). Relations among Chile,
Brazil and Argentina are less developed than those between
each of these countries and Spain (Presmanes; Zumelzu,
2003). Countries with languages other than Spanish or Por-
tuguese are peripheral to this network as are some nations
in central America. In summary, south-south collaboration
remains peripheral when evaluated from the global pers-
pective (Adams et al., in preparation).
Summary and conclusions
The network of coauthorship relations offers a perspective
on the ranks and positions of countries which provides an
alternative to ranking shares of publications and citations.
The core group of collaborating
nations is dominated by a subset
of research-intensive Western-
European nations and the USA.
This configuration was challenged
during the 1990s and early 2000s
by the arrival of new entrants at
the global level. As the analysis
shows, all the nations of the world
are now participating in this pro-
cess of globalization. Whereas
Leydesdorff & Wagner (2008)
once feared that a small set of
(approximately 14) nations could
monopolize the network by re-
producing historical patterns, the
leading group has tripled to more
than 40 nations (figure 3) in the
last five years, suggesting a diffe-
rent dynamic operating at the glo-
bal level. Thus, the development
is more inclusive than before,
with features more similar to an
open system with some regional
differentiation than the core-peri-
phery grouping that characterized
the global system in the past.
The globalization of co-authorship
relations at current levels —with
almost 25% of the relevant pa-
pers internationally coauthored,
but carrying almost 40% of the
institutional addresses in the

file— can be expected to have changed (or
reflect changes in) the structure of science
and the dynamics of knowledge creation in
the core set. Whereas the context of dis-
covery for generating knowledge claims
was previously considered mainly a social
context while the context of validation was
envisioned at the global (or universal) le-
vel (Popper, [1935] 1959), nowadays the
two contexts are increasingly intermingled.
Gibbons et al. (1994) hypothesized a third
“context of application” that allows stake-
holders to participate in the process of
knowledge production and validation (cf.
Lepori, 2011). National science policies ba-
sed in institutions created in the 20th
cen-
tury may be less effective in influencing
such a complex and adaptive system deve-
loping at the global level.

The subsequent steps after opening the file in Pajek are as
follows:
1. Read the full network (“coocc201.net”; included in
the file “indonesia.paj”).
2. Network > Partition > k-neighbours; select node
number and distance 1.
3. Operations > Network + Partition > extract subnet-
work 0-1; “0” for ego, “1” for k=1 neighbours.
4. Partition > Make Cluster > 1 (only k=1 neighbours).
5. Operations > Network + Partition > Transform > Re-
move Lines > Inside Cluster 1 (that is, links among
k-neighbours).
6. Draw > Network + first partition.
7. You may have to turn off labeling only the cluster un-
der Options in the draw screen; otherwise one only
sees the k-neighbours labeled.
