Structure of co-authorship network in UPM journal publications database from 2007-2010

Co-authorship is one of the most tangible forms of research collaboration. A co-authorship network is a social network in which the authors through participation in one or more joint publications are linked (undirectedly) to each other. The present work used social n...

Using modularity approach, the community structures are analysed for each year’s co- authorship network and found that then fall naturally onto closely associated areas.
