基于文献计量的区块链领域研究态势分析

A Bibliometric Analysis on Blockchain Research

[目的/意义]作为一项新兴技术,区块链目前已经得到各国政界、企业界、学术界的高度重视,相关研究成果呈井喷式增长。文章分析了区块链领域的研究现状和发展趋势,以期为后续我国区块链技术的创新和发展提供参考和借鉴。[方法/过程]文章采用文献计量的方法,借助文本挖掘工具和可视化分析软件对Web of Science数据库和中国知网中的相关文献进行定量分析,从年度发文量、主要研究机构、主要研究人员、主要发文期刊、研究热点与研究前沿等角度对两个数据库中的相关文献进行剖析,探究区块链领域的发展现状和趋势。[结果/结论]研究结论显示,我国在区块链领域具有雄厚的科研实力,拥有一批高影响力的科研机构,但是机构及作者的合作网络较为稀疏,区块链技术的应用领域单一。今后需要积极拓展区块链技术的应用场景,加强国内外的合作关系。

[Objective/Significance] As an emerging technology, blockchain has now been highly valued by the political, business, and academic circles of various countries, and related research results have shown a spurt of growth. In order to provide reference for the innovation and development of blockchain technology in China,this article analyzes the research status and development trend of the blockchain field. [Method/Process] The paper adopts the method of bibliometrics, with the help of text mining tools and visual analysis software to quantitatively analyze the relevant literature in Web of Science and CNKI. In order to explore the development status and trends of the blockchain field, the article analyzes the relevant documents in the two databases from the perspectives of annual publication volume, main research institutions, main researchers, main publication journals, research hotspots and research frontiers. [Results/Conclusions] Research conclusions show that China has strong scientific research capabilities in the field of blockchain, and has a number of high-impact scientific research institutions. However, the cooperation network of Chinese institutions and authors is relatively sparse,and the application field of blockchain technology is single. In the future, it is necessary to actively expand the application scenarios of blockchain technology and strengthen cooperation at home and abroad.
