Resumen
POLANCO, Xavier. Un modo de análisis de la infraestructura científica de las tecnologías de la información y de las comunicaciones. Rev. iberoam. cienc. tecnol. soc. [online]. 2007, vol.3, n.9, pp.77-90. ISSN 1850-0013.
The objective of this work is to present a way to analyze the state and the evolution of the scientific research (called "scientific infrastructure" in the title) from where are generated the information and communication technologies (ICTs), which can be found at the base of the information society and are essential to the rise of a knowledge society. Is it possible to anticipate, from the scientific research, which will be the new generation of ICTs? With the purpose of giving an answer, we propose a method illustrated by a case study on the "semantic Web" (2004-2005) represented by 795 bibliographical data. The method is based on the definition of a system of categories, called classifier, in which the concepts originating from the data are arranged according to a statistical order. The system of categories and concepts is then modelled within the parametres of the graph theory. We maintain that this way of analysis can be generalized to the study of other cases, aside from the example of the "semantic Web" that appears in this work.
