Abstract

Identifying research trends is an integral part of the planning phase of academic research and can be a daunting task for those not familiar with the process. This paper proposes the use of the Milky Way search engine to assist novice students who are beginning to undertake research. Using data-processing and data-mining techniques with data from SciVerse Scopus, the Milky Way search engine can provide students with a way to investigate research trends and test trend hypothesis' in their field. We evaluated the use of the Milky Way search engine in the field of mobile learning to analyze research trends.
