Resumen

ROJAS-SOLA, José Ignacio  y  JORDA-ALBINANA, Begoña. Bibliometric analysis of Venezuelan publications in the computer sciences category of the JCR data base (1997-2007). INCI [online]. 2009, vol.34, n.10, pp.689-695. ISSN 0378-1844.

The objective of this study was to review, through the JCR database in the Web of Science (ISI), the scientific production in the Computer Science subject category in Venezuela and published in international journals with impact factor between the years 1997 and 2007. We found 181 articles in all 95 journals, all of them in English. Four universities aggregate 93.92% of the entire university scientific output: Universidad Simón Bolívar (USB), Universidad de los Andes (ULA), Universidad Central de Venezuela (UCV) and La Universidad del Zulia (LUZ), USB standing out with 57 items (32.95%) and a remarkable increase in scientific output from 2005 having been observed. However, in terms of impact factor outstands ULA. Research institutions only accounted for 7.73% of all the scientific analysis. A remarkable international collaboration is also highlighted.
