1 Computational Scientometrics: Mapping the Structure and Evolution of Science Katy Börner & the InfoVis Lab School of Library and Information Science Indiana University, Bloomington, IN katy@indiana.edu Maps of Science help answer questions such as:  What are the major research areas, experts, institutions, regions, nations, grants, publications, journals in xx research?  Which areas are most insular?  What are the main connections for each area?  What is the relative speed of areas?  Which areas are the most dynamic/static?  What new research areas are evolving?  Impact of xx research on other fields?  How does funding influence the number and quality of publications? Answers are needed by funding agencies, companies, researchers & society. Shiffrin, Richard M. and Börner, Katy (Eds.) (2004). Mapping Knowledge Domains.
