Bibliometrics, Stylized Facts and the Way Ahead: How to Build Good Social Simulation Models of Science?

Year: 2011

Type: article

Abstract: This paper discusses how stylized facts derived from bibliometric studies can be used to build social simulation models of science. Based on a list of six stylized facts of science it illustrates how they can be brought into play to consolidate and direct research. Moreover, it discusses challenges such a stylized facts based approach of modeling science has to solve.
