Introducing Semarak Ilmu Publishing in Publishing Science and Engineering: Bibliometric Analysis

Abstract

Scholarly publishing in the fields of science and engineering plays an important role in developing and disseminating knowledge. In this context, bibliometric analysis is used as a method and tool to understand trends, patterns, and impact of scientific publications. The main objective of this research is to carry out bibliometric analysis of articles published by Semarak Ilmu Publishing. Information about productivity, collaboration, and impact of publications based on the keyword “Semarak Ilmu Publishing” as publisher was explored to provide better insight into their potential contribution to improving understanding and development in the fields of science and engineering. Based on the analysis, the number of articles that were published in 2019 - 2024 reached more than 40 articles with the number of articles per year being 45 articles in 2019, 75 articles in 2020, 50 articles in 2021, 79 articles in 2022, 66 articles in 2023, and 17 articles in 2024. For the case of 2024, since it is still at the beginning of the year, the number of publications is still low. Apart from that, each article has been widely cited by other authors with an average citation per year of 263.53 citations. This research becomes an initial basis for further evaluation of Semarak Ilmu Publishing and its contribution to supporting the scientific ecosystem.
