Abstract: To focus onto individuals: How does the co-authorship network reflect the actual working relations between the individuals?How does their job position co-relate to their network position?• To scale up and include bigger entities: What does the universities' co-authorship network graph look like?Is there a split in co-authorship network between top universities and others?If so, what are the factors that split universities up?This report attempts to rank the authors using the bibliometric network structure and analyses the university collaboration patterns. Outline of the ReportChapter 2 reviews previous works on social network and bibliometric network from various disciplines, giving an overview of the subject and providing a solid foundation which this work will be built on.It includes a review of existing software and tools for effectively conducting network analysis and graph visualisation for this work.Chapter 3 describes one of the experiments that rank authors from ECS based on the co-authorship graph structure.Chapter 4 describes the other experiment which analysed university level co-authorship collaboration using the ACM data.Chapter 5 summarises the report and proposes future work.
