Abstract
Main goal of a scientific community is the collaborative production of new knowledge through research and scholarship. An integrative research approach, fostered by confrontation and collaboration among researchers, is widely recognized as a key factor to improve the quality of production of a scientific community. Competence mapping is a valid approach to highlight expertise, encourage re-use of knowledge, contributing significantly to the growth of the scientific community. In this paper we propose a methodological framework for examination and semi-manual classification of research papers. This method leads to the creation of a database that correlates research competences and researchersI documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
