Collaboration and Prizewinning in Computer Science
Analysis
This paper investigates the relationship between collaboration patterns and prizewinning in Computer Science, providing insights into how collaborations, especially with other prizewinners, influence the likelihood of receiving awards. It also examines the context of Nobel Prizes and contrasts the trajectories of Nobel and Turing award winners.
Key Takeaways
- •Prizewinners tend to collaborate more with other prizewinners.
- •Collaborating with prizewinners increases the likelihood of winning an award.
- •General CS prize recipients collaborate more than those in specialized areas.
- •The study provides insights into the dynamics of academic collaborations and their impact on recognition.
