Background A bibliometric analysis was used to assess the trend of solid waste-related publications produced by Iran and indexed in Scopus from 1982 to 2013. The study aims to analyze the distribution of languages, countries, institutes, journals, author keywords, authorship pattern and co-authorship relationships. Results The publication outputs showed an exponential trend (R 2 = 0.98) and increased by 45.3 % per year from 1982 to 2011. It was received with a decreasing trend to 44 papers at the end of 2013. Journal of Environmental Studies published the most papers. University of Tehran (25 %), Islamic Azad University (8.24 %), Tehran University of Medical Sciences (7.35 %) played active roles in the publication and Abduli MA was the most productive author (9.12 %) in this field. The English language was dominant language of all publications (88.24 %). The appearance of keywords namely ''Heavy metals'', ''landfill leachate'' and ''site selection'' reveals the importance of release of heavy metals through landfill leachates and site selection issues in Iran. Conclusions A downward trend in the number of publications is likely to be continued in future years. The highest cooperation was found among the capital universities in Iran and other institutions had a minor role in the production of articles. It is hoped that transferring the experiences by main universities and starting up teamwork activities may increase the number of researches in this field. It is expected that this study could be the basis for a better understanding of development of researches related to solid waste in Iran.

“…However, a bias would appear in the analysis of institutions which was used by different names in their publications. It is strongly recommended that an "international identity number" for all institutions when authors published their paper with an institution as affiliation in a Web of Science-listed journal (Chiu &Ho, 2007). More independent institutions might lead to more first author articles and corresponding author articles or vice versa.…”

“…Bibliometric analysis of author keywords has been only observed in recent years (Chiu &Ho, 2007;Wang et al, 2010;Li et al, 2011). It tried to find the research emphases and trends by quantitatively analyzing the frequency of author keywords.…”

“…In exited bibliometric analyses, the analyzed aspects usually covering languages (Alfaraz & Calvino, 2004;Chiu & Ho, 2007;Ferrara, 2011), annual publication outputs (Chiu & Ho, 2007;Tsay, 2008), journals (Schubert et al, 1989;Tsay, 2008), categories (Moed et al, 1995;Yamazaki, 1994), and contributing countries and institutions (Schubert et al, 1989;Chiu & Ho, 2007;Tanaka & Ho, 2011;Li et al, 2011). In recent years, author keywords which could provide a reasonably detailed picture of the article's subject (Garfield, 1990), have been quantitatively analyzed to figure out the research emphases and trends (Chiu & Ho, 2007;Fu et al, 2010;Li et al, 2011). To analyze these aspects, the common evaluation indicators number of publications and their publication share were utilized (Schubert et al, 1989;Rehn et al, 2007).…”

“…Interesting examples include visualizing the inter-relationships between research topics [1], [5], identification of important researchers or research groups [6], [3], the study of research performance by country [7], [8], the study of collaboration patterns [9], [10], [11] and the prediction of future trends and developments [12], [13], [14], [5]. Nevertheless, given the many difficulties inherent to these undertakings, there is still scope for further development, as well as for testing and fine-tuning these methodologies via appropriately scoped pilot studies.…”

Abstract-This paper describes the application of data mining techniques for eludicating patterns and trends in technological innovation. Specifically, we focus on the use of bibliometric methods, viz techniques which focus on trends in the publication of text documents rather than the content of these documents. Of particular interest is the relationship between publication patterns, as characterized by term occurrence frequencies, and the underlying technological trends and developments which drive these trends. To focus the discussions and to provide a concrete example of their applicability, a detailed case study focussing on research in the area of Distributed Generation (DG) is also presented; however, the techniques and general approach devised here will be applicable to a broad range of industries, situations, and locations. Our results are promising and indicate that interesting information and conclusions can be derived from this line of analysis. The results obtained using data extraction techniques highlight and present the evolution of DG-related technology focus areas, and their relative importance within this field.
