The productivity factor is very important at the mathematical simulation of scientific community evolution. In Ref. 1 the productivity index has been incorporated into the model exogenously to formulate the criterion of dynamic optimization of the scientific community age structure. In this paper we are going to include the productivity (as well as the age) in the individual state space and to derive the main dynamic equation which takes into account the stochastic fluctuations of scientific community members' productivity and some modifications of the Fokker-Planck equation. An approximation method for the evolution model is suggested with the aid of which the computational experiment is carried out. The discussion of experimental results and possible ways for improvement and extension of model are presented.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
