Collaborative patterns and age structures in Chinese publications

TLDR
A new method is used to analyze the nature and preference of collaboration based on an extended database and observed values of two- three- and four-dimensional collaboration were compared respectively with their expected values.
Abstract
This paper is the continued study on age structure of scientific collaboration in Chinese computer science. Based on an extended database a new method is used to analyze the nature and preference of collaboration. Observed values of two- three- and four-dimensional collaboration were compared respectively with their expected values. Investigation covered co-authors" combination patterns, name permutations in their papers, especially the age of the first author.

The Effects of Aging on Researchers' Publication and Citation Patterns

TL;DR: Drawing on a sizeable sample of 6,388 university professors in Quebec who have published at least one paper between 2000 and 2007, the results identify two turning points in the professors' careers, showing clearly that productivity and impact are not a simple and declining function of age and that they must take into account the collaborative aspects of scientific research.
