Abstract

The database host STN International allows for extensive citation analysis in the SCISEARCH database (Science Citation Index Expanded) and in the CAplus database (Chemical Abstracts). Along with its powerful browsing, searching and analyzing facilities, STN International also features scripts. In this paper we examine the usefulness of the script language in the automation of citation analysis in SCISEARCH and CAplus.
