One of the most reliable ways to track science and technology activities is the study of scientific literature (journal articles, news, reviews, comments, letters, editorials, newspaper articles, etc.): co-authorship, citations, co-citations. Examining scientific literature underpins analysis of the scientific community and its structure in a given society, as well the motivations and networks of researchers. The methods for the measurement of patent and research activities are many; among them, Metrics has earned its place as an important tool in evaluating research activities and scientific output by counting the number and the impact of papers on scientific disciplines and by counting the number of citations, patents… Tracing of scientific literature cited in patents goes back many years. This kind of analysis was pioneered by Francis Narin and his colleagues. Very few studies about tracing patents in the scientific publications, Glänzel W and Meyer N. emphasized in their study that even specialists in the area of patent citations appear not to have studied this type of citation link.
