The Top 100 Institutions in India and in the World

Abstract

This study undertakes a comprehensive scientometric and text-oriented evaluation of computer science research outputs from the 100 leading institutions in India and around the world. The analysis draws on data indexed in the Scopus database over a 25-year span (1989–2013). Utilizing a dual-method framework, it incorporates both conventional scientometric techniques and computational text analysis.

The scientometric component focuses on comparing Indian computer science research with that of the world's top institutions by examining metrics such as total publications, citation impact, co-authorship trends, and levels of international collaboration. Meanwhile, the text analysis identifies prominent research themes and their evolution over time within both groups. This unique investigation offers one of the first comparative insights into the research characteristics of Indian versus global institutions in the field of computer science, delivering meaningful findings and valuable conclusions.
