Abstract

This paper analyzes collaborative relationships between researchers affiliated to public universities of Andalusia by the scientific production of articles published in scientific journals indexed in the Journal Citation Report (JCR) between 2003 and 2012. By using the methodology of social network analysis (SNA) a rich picture of the understanding and characterization of academic research networks is provided. The results obtained show how partnerships can help to rank universities considering their scientific and synergistic use of the resources received.
