Abstract

This study explored the scientific web spaces of Korea and Japan by applying webmetric and social network analysis techniques with the aim of ascertaining international scholarly communication characteristics between the two countries. In general, more links were generated from the Korean scientific web sites to the Japanese sites than those from the opposite direction, thus implying a higher usage of Japanese scientific information on the web in Korean sites. In addition, university sites in the two countries were highly linked on the web revealing the most active institutions in scholarly communication were the universities. Based on the link analysis, the study also indicated which country was more dependent on the other in scholarly communication in specific scientific fields.

이 연구에서는 국내 기관들 간의 웹을 통한 학술커뮤니케이션 분석에서 더 나아가 국가 차원에서 한국과 일본 과학기술 분야 웹 공간에서의 학술적 교류를 파악하는 것을 목적으로, 웹계량학적 방법론과 사회연결망 기법을 적용하여 양 국가의 웹 공간을 분석하였다. 전체적으로 한국이 일본의 과학기술 분야 웹 학술정보를 더 많이 이용하고 있었으며, 한 일 국가간 학술커뮤니케이션을 이끄는 주체는 대학이라고 할 수 있을 정도로 두 나라 모두 대학을 중심으로 많은 링크를 보내거나 받고 있었다. 링크기반 분석에서 한국과 일본이 상대 국가에 대해 의존적인 학문 분야는 서로 다르게 나타났으며, 학문분야별로 상대 국가에 의해 많이 이용되고 있는 학술정보를 생산하는 한국과 일본의 대학 및 연구기관들을 파악할 수 있었다.
