Some Data and Observation on Research Publication (A) Numerical Computation, (B) Programming Languages and Systems
John R. Rice · Purdue e-Pubs (Purdue University System) · 1976
This report contains extensive data on the level of research publications in refereed journals for two areas in Computer Science: Numerical Computation and Programming Languages and Systems.It is concluded that the research output in Numerical Computation is about 5 times that in Programming Languages and Systems (as measured by refereed research articles.)Some less complete data on the number of conferences is also presented which suggests the number of conferences in numerical computations substantially exceeds that of Programming Languages and Systems.Some comparisons are made with data derived from Computing Reviews.The data is for 1973 and 1974-
