The global share of corresponding/leading authors in scientific publications for computer science applications in 2023 showcases Indonesia at the top with a share of 97.3%, followed closely by Russia and China. European countries like Bulgaria, Romania, and Slovakia also display a strong presence, while traditional leaders such as Germany, Italy, and the UK reported relatively lower shares. Countries with advanced research ecosystems, e.g., Switzerland and Sweden, exhibit moderate shares around the mid-80 percentile. Qatar and Saudi Arabia round out the list with smaller contributions, revealing a diverse global research landscape.
Future trends to watch include:
- An increase in cross-border collaborations, which may potentially decrease the global share of corresponding authors from single countries.
- A shift towards multi-national research initiatives, enhancing diversity in contributions but potentially reducing the regional dominance observed currently.
- Regional investments in R&D in emerging countries potentially boosting their authorship share in forthcoming reports.
