1. INTRODUCTION

Universities are the symbolic representation for the higher education achievement of a country so as to establishment of knowledge society and intellectual assets through structured and profiled teaching and research process as its fundamental responsibilities well defined. The Key Performance Indicators (KPI) to measure the overall performance of universities and colleges could vary according to the nation’s socio-economic factors but it can be broadly categorized as: Participation of under-represented groups, Student progression, Learning outcomes (including non-completion), Efficiency of learning and teaching and Research output [1]. Among all this specific indicators the importance on research and its publications is highly valuable because of sharing of knowledge universally is need of the hour. Another vital factor is evaluation of the research activity of a university helps the administrators and authorities to understand the institution’s position in publication that can be witnessed through many bibliographical databases like Scopus, Web of Science, Google Scholar, CitSeerX, Crossref, PubMed, Embase, SciFinder and so on. Furthermore, more specifically, ranking the research performance of the faculty members of institutions relies largely on two inter-related indicators viz., quantum of the scholarly publications (quantitative) and citation evaluations (qualitative). Bibliometrics is a study of statistical analysis for

the library products and services that could be measured and assessed for its worthiness and values and it will investigate the publication productivity, pattern, and evaluative author and journal indices viz. g-index, h-index, i-10 index and (IF) and SCImago journal ranking, Eigenfactor and Article Influence Score[2] respectively. Of many models to measure the research performance of an institution or combination of institution, one such is measured by both dependent variable (Research quantum) and independent variables which play impact upon the dependent variables like staff PhD percentage, Staff-student ratio, good teaching etc.[3] This study applies bibliometric methods and techniques to dissect the scholarly communications of University of Madras indexed in Scopus and Web of Science citation databases.

1.2 Background of the Study

University of Madras established based on the model of London University, was incorporated on September 5, 1857 by an Act of the Legislative Council of India. It is one of the three Premier Universities and the other two giants are University of Calcutta and University of Bombay. All the three are celebrated their 150th (Sesquicentennial) year of establishment on 2006-07 (Madras). The test university-University of Madras embeds six campuses at various places in Chennai Metropolitan area. They are called i) Chepauk (Main) Campus, ii) Guindy Campus (Pure Sciences), iii) Marina Campus (Language), iv) Taramani Campus (Basic Medical), v) Chetpet Campus (Sports) and vi) Maduravoyal Campus (Botany field laboratory). There are 73 Teaching and Research Departments in the University of Madras which are grouped under 18 schools.

1.3 Need for the Study

The cause and effect of information explosion is colossal and muddle respectively. In order to overcome this problem, library and information centres (LIC) traditionally adapted information organization practices systematically; such system includes classifications, indexing and abstracting methods, subject bibliographies and directories and of course citation databases. Investigation of standard citation databases for the indexing of publication of an institution or individual author implies ranking them purposefully. This study provides room for analyse and assimilate the research performance of the particular institution-University of Madras over a period visible in two popular citation databases so that volumetric and valuable output and outcome is put forth on public domain with easy to understand scales.

2. LITERATURE REVIEW

Over the last five decades several studies have been undertaken on research performances of the faculties of Universities, Institutions and individual authors as Biobibliometric studies and quantifying a specific subject literature from various sources of publications. Some of the specific related literature is listed below as such:

Levine-Clark & Gil (2009)[4] presented the result of a comparative analysis of three citation databases-Web of Science, Scopus and Google Scholar and its hits over a randomly selected business and economics journals and they were made an extensive study of average number of hits/cites for all journals of selected disciplines, top twenty five journals and unranked articles. They concluded that the Web of Science have long been the only citation database because of ISI, IF and Scopus covers large quantity of journal article so that mammoth citations but Google Scholar is best alternate for these two commercial databases. Baskaran (2003) [5] have systematically studied the research output of Alagappa University for the period from 1999-2011 based on Web of Science citation database and he investigated the degree of collaboration, relative growth rate, subject wise contribution etc. Balasubrarmani and Parameshwaran (2014)[6] mapped the research

Impact Factor (JCC : 5.4762 NAAS Rating: 2.87 Research Performance of University of Madras: A Bibliometric Analysis 31 productivity of Banaras Hindu University and they categorized the strong and weak areas of university research by going through prolific authors, emerging subjects, source journals etc. Al-Ghamdi et al (2011)[7] analysed the research output of King Saud University elaborately by using bibliometric and non-bibliometric indicators which can be categorize the authors and their research performances in a systematic way. Zhu et al (2014) [8]measured research performances of the Chinese Universities using bibliometric indicators and the source was Scopus databases for the year 2007-2010.They did comparative analyses of the research performances of the Chinese Universities with the United States and Europe Universities and they have used the citation analysis to study the performance of the researchers. Annibaldi et al (2010)[9] analysed the research performances of the analytical chemistry academic publication of the national university of the Italy based on the citation indices of Impact factor, h-index etc. This study gives clear sight on the research performance of the specific departments and its publication productivity and their area of research. Thirumagal (2012)[10] studied the scientific publication of the Manonmanium Sundaranar University, Thirunelveli, the source collected from the Web of Science for a period of 1992-2011, she listed out the research productivity based on geographic distribution, total global citation score by using bibliometric tools like BibExcel, HitCite. Maharana (2014)[11] explained elaborately about the Research growth and development of the Sambalpur University during 2008-2012, through a bibliometric way and this study emphases various measurements like major research areas, most prolific authors, most prolific institutions, length of the paper during the 2007-2011, Lotka’s law of scientific productivity, AAPP (Average Author Per Paper) and authorship pattern etc.

3. OBJECTIVES

The prime objective of this study is to analyse the research performance of University of Madras. The objective includes:

To quantify the research output of the faculty of University of Madras

To identify the frontier areas of research of the faculty of the University of Madras witnessed in two major citation databases

To study impact of the research publications of the faculty of the University of Madras

To study the collaborative pattern of the University of Madras

To compare the indexing of periodicals in both the databases

To examine the impact of citation as control variable on h-index and publications

4. METHODOLOGY

The purpose of research is to contribute new knowledge to the existing field of study and to solve the problem through exploratory, descriptive and explanatory types of research[12]. The focus of this study is to analyse the research publications and its indexing nuances of the two citation databases in our contemporary world. The bibliographic data had been extracted for the period of twenty years (1996-2015) and they were analysed with the help of Bibexcel and SPSS software to visualize and witness as it is retrieved where it is so that simple classifications and categorization of the university scholarly communication is achieved.

Scope and Coverage

This study aimed at to study the research performance of the scientific publications as embedded in the test databases. So that future studies would be taken on other citation databases listed above and more because there is a huge scope for bibliometric analysis of ranking and listing authors and institutions enabled.

Period: 1996-2015 (two decades) Sources: The Web of Science and Scopus bibliographic databases Language: English only Form: All forms 5. ANALYSIS AND PRESENTATION OF THE DATA 5.1 Growth Rate and Percentage of Research Productivity

Research productivity in terms of year-wise distribution will enable the researcher to understand and interpret the growth rate and its trend so that the efficiency of research publication of the particular institution can be studied. Here we are seen the publication productivity for the University of Madras based on the comparative scales accordingly.

Table 1 shows that the total published papers per year to the University of Madras for the period of two decades along with its percentages, The Scopus shows 534 as a maximum publication in the year 2014 whereas Web of Science have 507 documents in the year 2015. The documents quantity is varied from one another because of the number of journals indexed by both databases in the same field. It is very evident that the Scopus listed more number of journals compare to Web of Science so as to more volumes of publications listed. Figure 1 is arrived by SPSS tool which signifies the minimum and maximum number of publications, mean and standard deviation for the records seen in the databases taken for the test.

5.2 Documents and its Types

It is very significant that the majority of publications witnessed in both the databases are journal article as universal scientific publications are in journal article nature. Later, the scientific publishers used to prefer their research output either in conference proceedings or book chapters. This particular classification also exposes the kinds of documents visible in their proprietary databases which rank upon its number.

Above table reveals the documents and its types in which the research publication were prospected by the researchers of the institution. Out of 7071 documents from Scopus database 6539 are journal articles whereas WoS occupies 6179 articles out of 6738 total publications. The second place is different for Scopus which is Proceeding Paper (295) and for WoS it is Meeting Abstracts (190).

5.3 Collaboration Pattern and its importance

Collaboration is an important activity in research primarily to enhance more visibility for the paper which is submitted to the public domain because of the authors’ wisdom and institutional reputation. Secondly funding facilities shall be

www.tjprc.org [email protected] 34 A. Perumal

maximized thorough multiple authors across the nation and countries. Finally the integration of the specific knowledge into single information system is to be accomplished.

We can easily understand that the research collaborations with USA is remarkable because it was 386 and 371 paper in Scopus and Web of Science respectively. Malaysia stands second contributing 215 publications in each database. Mexico shows least shares with 40 and 43 records in table.

5.4 Prolific Subjects and Authors Identification

Prolific means active and aggressive person and product on some processes or services. Authors who are energetic in research publications apart from their teaching and learning responsibilities can be ranked according to their quantum of publications and citations attained as on date. The subject proliferations are depending upon the field in which the researcher engaged and sometimes the emerging situations like COVID-19, Demonetisation and so on.

Authors proliferation in terms of number of publication is the basic phenomenon in ranking the researcher accordingly, it does not mean that they are the best researcher; excluding valued quality factors one can say most prolific authors in volumetric scales. Author Velmurugan is the topper in both the databases with 402 and 481 records at WoS and Scopus respectively.

Table 7 h-index Comparison

The h-index is an indicator to measure authors publication productivity through citation window, it implies the number of quoting made by prospective writer to cite retrospectively so that the number of citations to author cited and references to citing author. This can be calculated by arranging citations over a period he/she is active descending order so that at one point rank(r) is equal to citation (Tc) or otherwise rank is greater than citations received for the paper.

Table 7

This table arrived through Bibexcel software analysis which shows the authors with high h-index along with its citations. Prof. Varalakshmi ranked first in Scopus with 31 score and Prof. Panneerselvam stands first in h-index at WoS with 27 scores. Other nineteen toppers listed as seen above with their respective scores and publication and again citations. This ranking is for the period stipulated and it is not static but dynamic experienced by the researcher for the last ten years in library system of the University of Madras.

Correlation analysis is to understand the relationship between two variables of test intended (Dependent and Independent) and to know the impact of independent upon the dependant variables. Here the h-index, the dependent variable influenced by the number publication as expected in general. But another important independent variable plays major role is citation, in determining the h-index score of an author or institution irrespective of number of publications but volume of citations. Above two figures exhibits the control variable citation has much dominance upon h-scores but less impact on total articles. It is .488 in Scopus because of high proportion of articles indexed, whereas .256 at WoS as a result of benchmarking of journal inclusions. So, we can conclude that the citation has greater impact upon the h-index score compare to number of publication. This can be learnt through researchers Varalakshmi and Panneerselvam outcome, even though they published minimum papers comparatively (122 and 55 for Scopus and WoS respectively) but attained high h-index marks (31 &27) why because notable citations (1587 &1326).

6. FINDINGS AND INTERPRETATIONS

After having analysed the data meticulously, following findings and realizations were made accordingly, they are as follows:

www.tjprc.org [email protected] 38 A. Perumal

 Almost 7000 papers were identified form the two bibliographic databases and most of them are journal articles and they are from the foreign journals.

 The collaborations with the other institute and industrial researchers have been highlighting, majority from the USA, following that Malaysia, Japan and South Korea due to institutional reputation and alumni strength of University of Madras.

 The prolific subject areas are Chemistry, Crystallography & Biophysics and Pharmacology & Pharmacy in Web of Science, Whereas Chemistry, Biology and Material Science for Scopus.

 Top three source titles are coincided in both of the databases which are Acta Crystallographica Section E Structure Reports Online, Act Crystallographica Section C Crystal Structure Communication and Tetrahedron Letters.

 Again there are similarities in the top three active authors in quantum of publication, they are: Dr. Velmurugan, Dr. Raghunathan and Dr. Ponnuswamy, and all the three are retired professors from the University and the onus is on the young faculties to intensify their publications in the coming year.

 Prof. Varalakshmi from Medical Biochemistry department stands first in h-index ranking in Scopus (31) and Second position in WoS (26) databases.

 Citations play influential role in determining the h-index score but not more and more publications only, we would say at least 31 citations for at least 31 articles each so that h-index is 31 not necessarily to publish 100 papers without citation or less citation almost all.

CONCLUSIONS

The changing role of faculties in universities are from simple teaching alone to publication and social responsibility through sharing his/her knowledge through proper media and format for the development of the society as much as possible. This sharing can be identified and discovered through various print and digital formats, one such is citation databases. This comparative study concluded that the publications and its metadata is systematically captured and preserved in a huge data storage system for quick search and retrieval via link resolvers. The traditional ISI now Clarivate Analytics, it provides bibliographic data with stringent journal indexing parameters but at the same time Scopus covers large volumes in their respective subject categories of research. Both the databases enable researchers for citation study as well as relevant content discovery by search techniques and strategies. University of Madras-the pioneer in scientific research in South India proves active in research and publication as same can be witnessed through above said two citation databases. Mainly this study is to compare and measure the two databases enlists the research papers via quantitative and qualitative parameters. The output analysis of an institution is not comprehensive by only studying the documents indexed by the Web of Science and Scopus online databases but we have a huge grey literature which is not included in these citation databases but many bibliometric indicators and adaptation of quality check is appreciable part in the bibliographic databases management system and its services. Finally, the core research we found from above data analysis is chemistry and physics following those biological sciences.
