“…Park [12] suggested that co-citation occurs when two different publications are referenced in the publication. While Small [13] agreed that co-citation is based on the occurrence of two documents from previous works are collectedly cited in a subsequent work. By examining these co-citation patterns, researchers can gain insight into the intellectual structure, evolution, and relationship within a specific area of study.…”

This study objects to provide a communicative review for splicing system, focusing on deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) published in journals and proceedings indexed by the Scopus database. The method of bibliometric analysis is used to describe and analyze the evolution of publication structure and its various co-relationships such as citation, co-citation, co-authorship, and co-occurrence, among the chosen 174 documents indexed by Scopus. This study gives some insightful direction of research where the most influential documents and authors were determined. Besides, the emerging of technologies in most of the research works conducted previously promote the hybridization of background of studies specifically in mathematics, biology, and computer science. The study is limited to English articles which was published by the Scopus database, ranging from the year of 1983 until 2023. The source is also limited to Scopus journals and proceedings only. As far as the authors are aware, this is the first study to address the splicing system topic from a bibliometric perspective. The authors believe that this bibliometric review will help scholars and researchers to stand firm bases regarding the scientific development of this field of study.

“…The Journal Impact Factor (JIF), calculated by Clarivate Analytics (previously intellectual property of Thomson Reuters), was originally proposed by Sher and Garfield in 1963 [1] as a tool to help librarians identify journals worth purchasing and allowing for interdisciplinary comparisons [2]. The JIF is annually determined per journal as follows:…”

While the journal impact factor was originally developed to help librarians decide which journals to subscribe to, it has been increasingly used for the evaluation of the performance of individual researchers. The reasons why this practice should never be encouraged are reported in this study based on a literature review. This manuscript presents a critical overview on the international use, by governments and institutions, of the journal impact factor and/or journal indexing information for the assessment of individual researchers. The criticism on this practice is also illustrated through comments provided by Nobel laureates and others. This paper then proposes a rational method for evaluating researchers. As such, this work proposes an improved context for the use of the journal impact factor, so that this metric can be used for the right purpose.

“…For perspectives on the citation revolution, see e.g Bensman (2007). andSmall (2018).7 That scientists too respond to incentives is well demonstrated byAzoulay et al (2019) who find that a funding mechanism that tolerates early failures yields more novel work and a 97% increase in breakthroughs papers.…”
