Call for Abstracts

Data is being collected today at an unprecedented rate. At the same time the capability of analyzing data has also increased tremendously in the last decade. Several quantitative techniques such as in Data Envelopment Analysis, Scientometrics, Network analysis in semantic data and collaborations, Predictive Analytics, Simulation techniques and Data Mining have enormous possibilities in uncovering previously unknown patterns in S & T growth that can indicate the future and inform policy. Patterns in data can reveal the nature of growth and diversification in different subjects and applications in new technologies. Analysis of knowledge base of the diaspora can unravel information about diaspora - a vast potential resource for the country.  Deciphered patterns and dynamics of growth in these dimensions can inform future policies and strategies in S & T at institutional, regional and national levels.

 

Scholars and researchers engaged in quantitative studies of S & T on the above or related dimensions are invited to submit a one-page abstract of their work that they may wish to present and discuss at the Workshop.
