Sci2—New Mapping Knowledge Analysis Software

Abstract

Abstract:

Sci2 is developed by Katy Börner and her team in Indiana University. The aim of this paper
is to introduce new mapping knowledge analysis software, Sci2, for other researchers in our country. This
paper explains how Sci builds the mapping knowledge2 and its advantages2 in visualization. The paper
first introduces background information and configuration requirements of Sci2, and then highlights the
functions of the seven menu bars and the three windows in building the mapping knowledge. After pointing
out the advantages of Sci2 in visualization and taking the co-author network as an example, it also illustrates
some deficiencies for it.

Key words: Sci2, Mapping Knowledge, Visualization
