The AIDA Dashboard: a new tool for analysing research in Computer Science

Dear colleague,

We trust this email finds you well.

As a joint effort between Springer Nature, the Open University, and the
University of Cagliari, we recently launched the AIDA Dashboard [1],
https://w3id.org/aida/dashboard, an innovative tool for exploring and
making sense of the dynamics of research topics, scientific conferences and
journals in Computer Science.

The Dashboard was developed to provide insights about scientific trends and
developments to a variety of users, including researchers, scientific
editors, policy makers, funding bodies, and other relevant stakeholders.

By means of the AIDA Dashboard, users can explore either a conference or
journal venue (e.g., the International Semantic Web Conference
<https://aida.kmi.open.ac.uk/dashboard/conference/International%20Semantic%20Web%20Conference%20(ISWC)>
[2] or Scientometrics
<https://aida.kmi.open.ac.uk/dashboard/journal/Scientometrics> [3]) or a
research field (e.g., Semantic Web
<http://w3id.org/aida/dashboard/search/Semantic%20Web> [4]). When selecting
a conference or a journal the user can visualise a variety of metrics
associated with the venue, including number of publications and citations
over time, top authors, top organisations, top countries, industry
participation, and others. In addition, the dashboard also allows users to
perform comparative analyses of scientific venues that cover the same
research fields. In particular, when selecting a research field, the
dashboard allows the user to rank and compare all the venues in the field
according to a variety of metrics, such as, average citations, CORE rank,
LiveSHINE, Scimago Journal Rank and others.

Feel free to try it! All relevant links are below.

In addition, the data sitting underneath the dashboard is also freely
available [5] under a CC-BY 4.0 license.

We look forward to receiving your feedback [6].
