JingTao Yao 15 A Ten-year Review of Granular Computing Research Trends and Interaction Scientific growth is a diffusion process (Crane 1972: Invisible colleges) In the areas where researchers are aware of each other's existence, the curve of cumulative growth of publications and of authors entering the field follows a logistic pattern. –More new authors –Interacting with other domain –More publications
