Abstract
Abstract This paper aims to introduce HistciteTM, its modifications, and possible applications. Officially launched in 2007, HistciteTM was a bibliometric analysis and visualization software package developed by Dr. Eugene Garfield and his colleagues in 2001. The upgraded versions, HistciteTM pro 2.0 and 2.1, modified the way to open the software and automatically read the raw data of the Web of Science. Pre-processing methods offered practical solutions for problems of insufficient data via possible applications with various software features. While utilizing the HistCiteTM algorithm, the main-path analysis may serve to highlight the structural backbone used in developing an emerging scientific field through a series of identifiable citation networks. Although HistCiteTM has ceased updating, it remains a promising tool for researchers wishing to perform bibliometric analysis through technical refinement and enhancements.
摘要本文旨在介绍HisticiteTM，它的修改，以及可能的应用。HisticiteTM于2007年正式推出，是Eugene Garfield博士和他的同事于2001年开发的一个文献计量分析和可视化软件包。升级版HistaciteTM pro 2.0和2.1修改了打开软件和自动读取科学网原始数据的方式。预处理方法通过具有各种软件功能的可能应用程序，为数据不足的问题提供了实用的解决方案。在利用HistCitTM算法的同时，主路径分析可以通过一系列可识别的引用网络来突出用于开发新兴科学领域的结构骨干。尽管HistCitTM已经停止更新，但对于希望通过技术改进和增强进行文献计量分析的研究人员来说，它仍然是一个很有前途的工具。
期刊介绍：
Serials Review, issued quarterly, is a peer-reviewed scholarly journal for the international serials community. Articles focus on serials in the broadest sense of the term and cover all aspects of serials information; regular columns feature interviews, exchanges on controversial topics, book reviews, and conference reports. The journal encompasses practical, theoretical, and visionary ideas for librarians, publishers, vendors, and anyone interested in the changing nature of serials. Serials Review covers all aspects of serials management: format considerations, publishing models, statistical studies, collection analysis, collaborative efforts, reference and access issues, cataloging and acquisitions, people who have shaped the serials community, and topical bibliographic studies.
