Evaluating patterns of co-operation: application of a bibliometric visualisation tool to the Fourth Framework Programme and the Transport Research Programme

Networks of collaboration have been set up within the European Union's Fourth Framework Programme (FP4) by applying co-occurrence analysis and visualisation in two-dimensional knowledge maps. The focus of the analysis is on the patterns of co-operation and collaboration in research networks within FP4, involving the industrial, research and education sectors of all EU-Member States. The aggregate situation of FP4, and the Transport Research Programme in particular, are examined to identify features within patterns of co-operation of relevance to European research. The methodology is summarised, and potential for future research evaluation within the European Research Area is assessed. Copyright , Beech Tree Publishing.
