“…Publication data were extracted using Scopus. Scopus and WoS are often used in general bibliometric studies and in some bibliometric HCI studies (Koumaditis & Hussain, 2017;Kumar, 2013;Meho & Rogers, 2008;Palomäki et al, 2014;Shiau et al, 2016). Although such databases have limited coverage (García-Pérez, 2010;Gehanno et al 2013;Sandnes and Grønli, 2018;Sandnes & Brevik, 2019) inspections showed that the publication channels chosen for this study were indexed.…”

“…Broadus (1987) also gave some clarity to the distinctions between bibliometrics and the related term scientometrics when writing: "There is a large area of overlap, then, between bibliometrics and scientometrics, but many of the former deal with matters other than the measurement of science, or scientists, or scientific activity, while, on the other hand, many of the measurements interesting to scientometricians are based on data not derived from publication or other forms of communication." Bibliometric research methods can be useful in understanding research effort, behavior, structures, growth, and impact; these have also been popular in the fields of human factors (Lee et al, 2005) and HCI (Bartneck & Hu, 2009;Kaye, 2009;Koumaditis & Hussain, 2017). Subfields of HCI have also been studied using bibliometric methods, for example user centered design (Cho et al, 2020), ubiquitous computing (Silva et al 2012), world wide web (Agarwal et al, 2016), human-robot interaction Mubin, Tejlavwala, et al, 2018), accessibility (Sandnes, 2021), mobile technology (Palomäki et al, 2014), intelligent user interfaces (Völkel et al, 2020), human-agent interaction (Mubin et al, 2017), and computer-supported cooperative work (Jacovi et al, 2006;Correia et al, 2013;Keegan et al 2013;Correia et al, 2018aCorreia et al, , 2018bCorreia et al, , 2019.…”

A bibliometric study of human–computer interaction research activity in the Nordic-Baltic Eight countries

Human–computer interaction (HCI) has become an important area for designers and developers worldwide, and research activities set in national cultural contexts addressing local challenges are often needed in industry and academia. This study explored HCI research in the Nordic-Baltic countries using bibliometric methods. The results show that the activity varies greatly across the region with activities dominated by Finland, Sweden, and Denmark, even when adjusting for differences in population size and GDP. Research output variations were larger for the top-tier conferences compared to entry-tier conferences and journals. Locally hosted conferences were associated with local increases in research activity. HCI research longevity appears to be an indicator of research maturity and quantity. HCI researchers typically collaborated either with colleagues within the same institution or with researchers from countries outside the Nordic-Baltic region such as US and the UK. There was less collaboration between national and Nordic-Baltic partners. Collaboration appeared especially prevalent for top-tier conference papers. Top-tier conference papers were also more frequently cited than regional-tier and entry-tier conferences, yet journal articles were cited the most. One implication of this study is that the HCI research activity gaps across the Nordic-Baltic countries should be narrowed by increasing the activity in countries with low research outputs. To achieve this, first-time authors could receive guidance through collaborations with experienced authors in the same institution or other labs around the world. More conferences could also be hosted locally. Furthermore, journals may be more effective than conferences if the goal is to accumulate citations.

“…Bibliometric methods have been used to survey papers in computing, with several studies conducted on HCI research to identify emerging trends [13] and to study patterns in paper authorship or citations [3,4,7,20]. In several cases, authors have applied these methods to better understand the impacts of papers published in specific HCI publication venues, like IJHCS and CHI [19], or Human Factors [14].…”

Accessibility research sits at the junction of several disciplines, drawing infuence from HCI, disability studies, psychology, education, and more. To characterize the infuences and extensions of accessibility research, we undertake a study of citation trends for accessibility and related HCI communities. We assess the diversity of venues and felds of study represented among the referenced and citing papers of 836 accessibility research papers from ASSETS and CHI, fnding that though publications in computer science dominate these citation relationships, the relative proportion of citations from papers on psychology and medicine has grown over time. Though ASSETS is a more niche venue than CHI in terms of citational diversity, both conferences display standard levels of diversity among their incoming and outgoing citations when analyzed in the context of 53K papers from 13 accessibility and HCI conference venues.

Garousi et al [25] , for their part, reviewed UML-driven software performance engineering.…”

Green and Sustainable Software has emerged as a new and highly active area in the software community. After several years of research and work, we believe that it is now necessary to obtain a general snapshot of how the research in this area is evolving. To do so, we have applied the 5Ws (why, when, who, where, and what), a formula for getting the complete story on a subject. We have therefore carried out a study, using 542 publications related to Green and Sustainable Software research; these were recovered using SCOPUS. The results obtained allow us to conclude that it is important to identify key elements of the research to allow researchers be fully aware of the state of the research on Green and Sustainable Software (why); the study uses papers published between 2000 and the beginning of November 2018 (when); the most prolific authors are mainly from Europe, although the USA is the most active country, Green and Sustainable Software being a very interactive area with a good number of multinational publications (who); the top five keywords related to sustainable aspects are Green Software, Green IT, Software Sustainability, Energy Consumption, and Energy Efficiency (what); finally, as regards the places authors prefer to publish in, there is almost a complete balance between conferences and journals, with a trend towards an increase in the number of publications (where).
