The study analyses India's performance in science and technology (S&T), using publications data and different quantitative and qualitative measures. Its focuses on India's global publication share, rank and growth rate, citation quality, international collaborative publications share, its publication share and distribution in various broad and narrow subjects using 15 years data from the Scopus international multidisciplinary database. The study suggests the need to increase the pace of Indian scientific research and also improve its quality compared with other developed and developing countries. It also suggest the need for India to build up its scientific capacity, competence and knowledge base to help bridging the scientific and technological gap with leading countries.Keywords

The study examined the contribution of twenty agricultural universities to the mainstream scientific literature during 2007-20011 along two distinct, but inter-related dimensions of quantity (number of papers, number of international collaborative papers) and quality of research output (assessed through the citations received) A number of measures are used for inter-field and inter-university comparisons. Inter-field comparisons are made at the level of 10 macro subject fields.Keywords

India's global publication share was 5.66% and occupied 4th rank in global publication output during 2004-13. The Indian cloud computing output comes from several organizations and authors, of whom the top 15 and 10 authors contributed 33.25% and 7.30%, share respectively during 2004-13. India's international collaborative share in cloud computing was 11.69% during 2004-13. Computer science accounted for the largest publication share (79.44%) of the output in cloud computing, followed by engineering (22.80%), mathematics (7.30%), social science (2.57%), etc during 2004-13. Suggest the need for the development of a cloud economy and the adoption of cloud services and build suitable policy and regulation to encourage migration of IT services towards the cloud.Keywords

This paper analyzes India's research output in rare earths on a series of scientometric indicators. India published a total of 11,838 publications in the area of rare earths in 10 years during 2005-14 registering an average annual growth of 11.38%, citation impact of 7.44 citations per paper, and accounted for 5.18% global publications in rare earths for the period ranking as the 6th most productive country in the world. The paper profiles 15 most productive countries in rare earths, 20 most productive organizations and 20 most productive authors on a series of indicators including global publications share, global citation share, average productivity, citations per paper, h-index, and share of international collaborative papers during 2005-14. The paper also identifies top 20 most productive journals reporting India's research in rare earths during 2005-14. Suggests the needs for developing a national policy for catalyzing R& D on rare earths research in the country, increased investments in R& D, identification of areas of strategic interest and identification of top R& D institutions wherein future research could be conducted.Keywords

The present study examines 200 global publications on "Facebook and Libraries", as covered in Scopus database during 2006-14, experiencing an annual average growth rate of 109.94% and citation impact per paper of 4.94. The global publications on "Facebook and Libraries" came from 38 countries, of which the top 11 accounted for 74.5% publication share and 80.70% citations share of global publications and citations output during 2006-14. 164 organizations and 165 authors participated in global research on "Facebook and Library" during 2006-14, of which the top 27 organizations and 27 authors contributed 32% and 28.50% publications share and 29.20% and 14.02% citation share respectively of the global output and citations. Social sciences, among subjects, contributed the largest publications share of 80.50%, followed computer science (41.0%), engineering (6.0%), medicine (5.5%), business, management and accounting (3.0%), arts & humanities (2.0%) and decision sciences (2.0%) during 2006- 14. Of the total global publications, 156 appeared in 64 journals, of which the top 22 journals contributed 64.10% of the journal output. The top 20 highly cited papers registered 13 to 87 citations, and together contributed 591 citations, leading to the average citation per paper of 29.5. Based on existing studies available, the authors suggest the need to carry out a more comprehensive documentation on the existing studies on the application of Facebook to libraries, to learn about its actual usage, problems encountered and perception of users and librarians.References

This paper analyzes 510India' publications on rabies research during ten years 1999 to 2014, as indexed in Scopus International multidisciplinary database. The study focuses on various aspects of performance of Indian rabies research, such as the publication grov\th,citation impact, international collaboration, subject-wise distribution of publications, contribution and citation impact of Indian organizations and authors, medium of communication and characteristics of its high cited papers.Reveals that India's research output on rabies research witnessed an aimual average growth rate of 17.51%, registered an average citation impact per paper of 6.75 and a share of 14.51% of international collaborative publications. India's global publication and citation share in world rabies research was 6.52% and 3.08% and a relative citation index of 0.47 during 1999-2014. Medicine contributed the largest publication share (63.73%) to India's rcibies research, followed by immunology & microbiology (24.51%), veterinary science (20.20%), biochemistry, genetics & molecular biology (17.65%)), pharmacology, toxicology and pharmaceutics (12.75%), agricultural & biological sciences (8.63%,) and neurosciences (4.21%)) during 1999-2014. 159 Indian organizations and 226 authors participated in India's research on rabies, of which the top most productive 15 organizations and 14 authors contributed 55.49% and 46,67% share to its total output during 1999-2014. Suggest the need for taking several measures to control rabies effectively in India.References
