SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY MAP ANALYSIS OF AEROSPACE ENGINEERING
While expert-based approaches such as ICAS 2012 conference are effective to encourage interdisciplinary communications and support innovations in difficult environments the aeronautics people currently facing, development of computer-based information management tools is also expected because a computer-based approach is compatible with the scale of information and could be an efficient complement to the expert approaches by structuring flooding information and highlighting important indicators from it. This paper reports a latest bibliometrics application conducted to support aerospace engineers’ activity for innovation.
