Co‐contributorship network and division of labor in individual scientific collaborations
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology"
DOI: 10.1002/asi.24321
Abstract: Collaborations are pervasive in current science. Collaborations have been studied and encouraged in many disciplines. However, little is known about how a team really functions from the detailed division of labor within. In this research,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10867-018-9485-8
Abstract: Computer experiments that mirror the evolutionary dynamics of sexual and asexual organisms as they occur in nature were used to test features proposed to explain the evolution of sexual recombination. Results show that this evolution… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10905-021-09790-0
Abstract: Social insects have high levels of cooperation and division of labor. In bumble bees this is partly size-based, with larger bees performing tasks outside the nest and smaller bees remaining inside, although bumble bees still… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s12110-021-09411-x
Abstract: In some small-scale societies, a sexual division of labor is common. For subadult hunter-gatherers, the onset of this division dates to middle childhood and the start of puberty; however, there is apparently no physiological explanation… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.copbio.2022.102706
Abstract: In natural ecosystems, microorganisms live in communities where each member interacts with the others and with the environment to efficiently utilise available resources. Division of Labor (DOL) is an evolutionary strategy that evolved by microbial… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.cub.2018.05.024
Abstract: Within a biofilm, individual cells might perform only a subset of activities required for overall success of the biofilm. A new study examining matrix production, a task necessary for biofilm formation, shows possible mechanisms of… read more here.
