This experimental study examines informetric analysis of World Wide Web based upon cocitation analysis of Web pages and features of Web resources in the field of communication studies. Cocitation analysis is basically performed to examine the intellectual structure of the communication studies in reflecting link count on the Web. The selected Web resources in the field are mapped in two dimensions based upon the similarities of cocitation frequency, correlation matrix, mutidimensional scale and cluster analysis. Cocitation analysis methods using organizational homepage, personal homepage, or Web index, to Web produced clustering of Web resources that had topical similarities. So far, although informetric analysis of Web resources is in the preliminary stage, it shows that Web can be a new tool for indicating the intellectual structure of a specific research field. In addition, this study analyzes characteristics of printing resources and Web resources, and differences of research methods in applying cocitation analysis.

This study examines the social network of scholars in the field of communication by using author cocitation data. A matrix containing the number of cocited documents between pairs of authors is created for social network analysis of scholars who are on the editorial board of Journal of Communication, and the networked map of the scholars is used to visualize the knowledge structure of the field by identifying groups of authors who are more central than others. In addition, the study compares the previous analysis performed in 2008 and the current analysis on the editorial board of the journal, which increased from 146 to 254 scholars in numbers. Author cocitation data was collected using Social Science Citation Index (SSCI) through the Web of Science database, and UCInet was used to create and visualize the author cocitation network and to analyze the correlation between the cocitation network and the factors that may have affected the structure of the cocitation network.

In this thesis, author cocitation analysis with 45 authors in the field of sociology in general and document cocitation analysis in the specific area of family sociology were executed. The purpose of this study is to examine the meaning of bibliographic phenomena in Korean sociological literature by means of a new bibliometric technique, cocitation analysis, and to approach the intellectual structure of that field in view of multidimensional space.

This study investigated the intellectual structure of records management and archives field in Korea and America using author cocitation analysis. Major journals in the field from 2000 to 2004 are used to select frequent cited authors. Cocited authors are analyzed in details by means of multi-variate statistical techniques such as multidimensional scaling. To the analysis of this intellectual structure, main research topics in Korea were laws and policies related to records management and archives whereas information technology based electronic records management in America.

This study investigates author cocitation and author transition analysis which are two techniques to be used to construct author and concept networks by using a test collection of 4, 598 documents on the subject of chemistry. The author and concept networks can be used to understand the structual Knowledge of terms as well as intellectual structure of science. So, these networks could be basic data of knowledge base for subject literature.

The major purposes of the research are to see the underlying disciplines of technology innovation management which contribute to Korean research. To do that, we employed author cocitation analysis which has been proved to be robust. We compiled all the citations of two major Korean journals between 1993 and 2006. We also included up to 3rd author, which makes a cocitation analysis more comprehensive, compared with the previous analysis for the first author only. We identified 239 authors who have more than 10 citations. From the cocitation combinations based on the 239 authors, we selected and analyzed 100 most cocited authors. Out of 100 authors a group of 23 authors who command both higher citations and cocitations were chosen for detailed analysis. The results show that the average number of publications is 22.2, the average number of citations to them is 58.5, and the average number of citations to a publication is 2.6. Also, the average number of cocitations is around 10 times that of citations. The results indicate that there are six major disciplines: Technology/Innovation, Management of Technology, Economics of Technology, Development, Valuation of Technology, and Growth. Noteworthy points are the following. 1) Most of the members of the technology management group are management scholars, and the groups of economics of technology and growth are economists, while the groups of technology innovation and development group are not represented by specific disciplines. 2) Considering the groups overall from the traditional academic disciplines, the main branches are management and economics. 3) The valuation of technology group consists mostly of Korean researchers.

This study applies factor analysis of an author cocitation frequency matrix derived from a database file that consists of a total of 1095 cited reference records taken from 95 citing decision support systems articles published in Korean journals. This study identified the influence of social psychology, cognitive psychology, management information systems, strategic management, and organizational behavior/organizational design to the development of group support systems, user-interface, and executive information systems research subspecialties. This research establishes a benchmark to be used in the future research, which is necessary to account for the ongoing changes in the intellectual development and structure of DSS Research in Korea before solid conclusion can be reached about the maturity and on-going development of the DSS field in Korean.

This research analyzed changes of the intellectual structure of web information by examining time changes and search engines using the co-links analysis. According to the results, the co-links web information clusters on the two maps appeared to contain changes in the intellectual structure over the two time periods. The intellectual structure that appeared in the information map for AltaVista and MSN Search engines was relatively similar. However. there were also cases where the clusters of some web information was different. The results of the research revealed that the cocitation analysis could be applied simultaneously to diachronous analysis in the web information.

Augmented reality (AR) is considered to be an excellent user interface to a 3D information space embedded within physical reality. For this reason, it has been applied to various applications such as design, medical service, interaction, and collaboration. However, there is no formal way of analyzing the research trend and evolution of augmented reality. This paper identifies the research trend and change in augmented reality (AR) via co-citation analysis. The co-citation analysis provides how the AR research has evolved, who are main contributors, and which papers suggest essential and influencing impact. To systematically analyze the cocitation, we have retrieved 1,145 papers from the Web of Science and applied a scientomertric analysis using CiteSpace. Based on the co-citation analysis of authors and documents, it is possible to analyze the evolution of augmented reality, key authors and papers, and breakthroughs. We have also compared the proposed approach with survey papers written by experts so that the result of the co-citation analysis can compromise the qualitative result done by experts, and thus it can provide a different view and insight for visualizing the research on augmented reality.

This study explores knowledge structures of science and technology disciplines using a cocitation analysis of journal subject categories with the publication data of a science & technology oriented university in Korea. References cited in the articles published by the faculty of the university were analyzed to produce MDS maps and network centralities. For the whole university research domain, six clusters were created including clusters of Biology related subjects, Medicine related subjects, Chemistry plus Engineering subjects, and multidisciplinary sciences plus other subjects of multidisciplinary nature. It was found that subjects of multidisciplinary nature and Biology related subjects function as central nodes in knowledge communication network in science and technology. Same analysis procedure was applied to two natural science disciplines and another two engineering disciplines to present knowledge structures of the departmental research domains.
