Up to now, STI (Science, Technology, Innovation) studies are either rich but small scale (qualitative case studies) or large scale and under-complex – because they generally use only a single dataset like Patstat, Scopus, WoS (Web of Science), OECD STI indicators, etc., and therefore deploying only a few variables – determined by the data available. However, progress in the STI research field (...

In this study we present an application which can be accessed via www.excellence-networks.net and which represents networks of scientific institutions worldwide. The application is based on papers (articles, reviews and conference papers) published between 2007 and 2011. It uses (network) data, on which the SCImago Institutions Ranking is based (Scopus data from Elsevier). Using this data, inst...
