我国计算机科学研究队伍低龄化表现的数量特征

Quantitative Characteristics of younger Trend of Research Contingent in Chinese Computer Science

对《计算机研究与发展》、《软件学报》和《计算机学报》所记录的 50 2 4个作者年龄数据进行了科学计量学分析 ,发现了我国计算机科学研究队伍低龄化表现的三个数量特征 :青年峰突兀老年峰平缓的双峰年龄分布 ;青年作者比例增大与第一作者平均年龄逐年降低的趋势 ;

This paper makes scientometric analysis on 5024 authors’ ages,taken from three authoritative Chinese journals of computer science:Computer Research and Development,The Journal of Software and The Chinese Journal of Computers. This analysis revealed three quantitative characteristics of the age structure of the authors. The first characteristic is the bimodal age distribution with higher peak of young men and low peak of elders. The second one is the increasing proportion of young authors and the decreasing of the first authors’ average age year by year. The third is the collaborative pattern,which shows that the first author are younger comparatively and average age of the authors are increasing in terms of rank.
