Abstract This research aimed to conduct a comprehensive literature review of all papers from the beginning of time published by the Faculty of Engineering at Universitas Negeri Padang and indexed in the SINTA database using bibliometrics analysis. started with a query to the DOI (Digital Object Identifie. The papers from this scholarly publication may be accessed here. A total of 1094 papers from 7 journals were collected. Each paper published by the Engineering Faculty at Universitas Negeri Padang receives an average of 0. 42 citations. Given the insignificance of this average, it seems likely that the publication's contribution has yet to be fully recognized and has only had a little effect on the global state of knowledge. According to the findings. Universitas Negeri Andalas researchers collaborate the most with their peers around the country. Contrast this with the declining frequency with which multinational teams work together. With 38 articles published and ten citations obtained. Ahmaddul Hadi of the Informatics Department stood out as the most productive author. Research conducted by this faculty has been widely disseminated due to its publication in the reputable academic journal Inovasi Vokasi Dan Teknologi (INVOTEK). Keywords: Bibliometrics. Research Trend. Dimensions. Universitas Negeri Padang Introduction Investigating the quantity and quality of scientific output generated by universities and scientific institutes is a crucial criterion for measuring their degrees of scientific performance at the current time . It is essential to examine the scientific behavior of researchers using a variety of techniques in order to discover and promote the finest goods to scientific communities. It is because scientists create several scientific documents annually. light of this, it is necessary to examine the scientific conduct of researchers . There are several ways to accomplish this objective. Examples of such methods are bibliometric analysis and scientific mapping The scientific and technical communities depend mainly on bibliometrics, the analysis of future trends and gaps in knowledge, for knowledge management and decision-making. It enables us to evaluate an institution's research output using bibliometrics and data visualization . Universitas Negeri Padang (UNP) results from IKIP Padang's metamorphosis into a university. Since its founding on October 23, 1954, the UNP has undergone several changes. There are now over 42,000 students and 1,242 lecturers. These instructors are scattered throughout eleven faculties, 108 areas of study, and postgraduate programs . The Faculty of Engineering at the Universitas Negeri Padang aims to become a distinguished and worldwide renowned faculty in Technology and Vocational Education (TVET), vocational sectors, and The Faculty of Engineering offers seven Diploma Programs, ten Undergraduate Programs, and two Graduate Programs. In light of this, it is vital to analyze all scientific articles generated by this faculty in great In addition to identifying past, present, and future estimates and their strengths and weaknesses, this study's findings may also be helpful for institution policymakers. Rarely do academic institutions undertake bibliometric analyses. According to research done at Iran's Alzahra University, the disciplinary development of its experts was unequal and centered in a few areas . Another study conducted at the University of Gujarat found that, despite the participation of foreign scholars in the university's research, the institution has tremendous space for improvement in this specific field. Universities have much to gain from engaging in international collaborative endeavors, as it will not only raise the research output of their faculty but also allow them to promote an increase in the number of citations for their publications .

The number of publications published in Faculty of Engineering at the Universitas Negeri Padang (Seven Journa. from 2013 to 2022 . This study's goal was to thoroughly examine all academic papers published by Faculty Engineering Universitas Negeri Padang and included in the SINTA database from its beginning to the present. Method The information for this study came from the Dimensions database, retrieved on November 6, 2022. Dimensions are one of the world's most famous and large citation databases. More than one hundred million publications are included in the Dimensions database. These include scholarly journal articles, books, book chapters, preprints, and conference proceedings, among other types of publications. All papers are contextualized with connected data sets, financing, publications, patents, clinical trials, and policy documents . We chose journals that were published by the Faculty of Engineering at the State University of Padang based on criteria that were included in the Indonesian Science and Technology Index (SINTA). The seven journals that were produced as a direct result of this process are as follows: Vocational Electronics and Informatics Engineering (VOTETEKNIKA). Journal of Electrical and Vocational Engineering (JTEV). Journal of Vocational and Technological Innovation (INVOTEK). Journal of Information Technology and Education (JTIP). Journal of Civil Engineering and Vocational Education (CIVED). TEKNOMEKANIK, and Journal of Automotive Engineering and Vocational Education (AEEJ). Initially, information was collected using the Digital Object Identifier (DOI) search area. This area gives access to the journal's scientific articles. In the end, 1094 papers were retrieved from seven journalsAithe format of the exported documents as CSV. All the articles have been exported in CSV format. each has complete records and correctly cited citations. The study utilized 1094 articles, all of which were analyzed by the RStudio software, explicitly designed for bibliometrics research . After collecting the bibliographic information from the scientific papers of Universitas Negeri Padang researchers, the scientific publishing process and the citations they obtained were investigated. The scientific publication procedure and the citations acquired were analyzed after gathering bibliographic information from seven journals of Engineering Faculty Universitas Negeri Padang. Biblioshiny and other features of the bibliometrics package in the RStudio software were used to conduct this study's analysis. VOSviewer, an open-source software tool for building and visualizing bibliometric networks, is also employed in co-occurrence . Result and Discussion For analysis, the R Studio was used, namely the Biblioshiny and other functions of the Bibliometrics Package. Co-occurrence also makes use of VOSviewer, which is an open-source software tool that was developed to construct and examine bibliometric networks. Table 1.

The Informatics Department's Ahmaddul Hadi emerged as the most prolific author, with 38 articles published and ten citations received throughout his career. While Dedy Irfan of the Technology and Vocational Education Department finished in third place with 37 publications and 12 citations. Thamrin of the Electronic Engineering Education Department came in second place with 37 papers but just four citations. After determining the productivity of authors from seven engineering journals, the h-index must be calculated to determine the research impact of each author. The h-index, often known as the Hirsch index, evaluates the influence of a scientist rather than a publication. The h-index is defined as the most significant value of h such that an author or journal has produced at least h articles that have each been referenced at least h times . Recently. Jorge Hirsch developed the h index to quantify individual scientists' research achievements. The new measure has garnered considerable interest in the scientific community . Table 3.

Denny Kurniadi, and Doni Tri Putra Yanto have the highest h-index for their combined number of articles across all seven journals. Since it uses a different computation than other databases, such as Google Scholar. Scopus, and Web of Science, the h-index calculation performed here may not be identical to the one produced by those other databases. Table 4. Top five relevant affiliations DOI: https://doi. org/10. 29207/joseit. Yose Indarta. Ronal Watrianthos. Agariadne Dwinggo Samala Journal of Systems Engineering and Information Technology (JOSEIT) Vol. 2 No. Regarding the most affiliations in journals published by the Faculty of Engineering, it is led by the Universitas Negeri Padang (UNP) own affiliation, which has contributed 705 articles. Next on the list is Universitas Singaperbangsa Karawang (UNSIKA), followed by Universitas Riau (UNRI). Universitas Andalas (UNAND), and Universitas Komputer Indonesia (UKI), as shown in Table 4. The findings of the VOSviewer visualization demonstrate that each author has co-authored at least ten papers, which indicates that 47 authors are closely related with co-authorship in 6 clusters and 169 linkages, as seen in Table 5 below . Table 5. Co-authorship analysis in seven journals Cluster Number Authors Most Author Elfizon Titi Sriwahyuni Ahmaddul Hadi Dedy Irfan Agariadne Dwinggo Samala Denny Kurniadi Link Total Link Strength The bibliometric study of authors with co-authorship produced a total of 1437 authors. It found that 47 of these authors are so tightly connected with co-authorship that each author has contributed to at least ten works. The overall connection strength among authors indicates that authors who are grouped in the same clusters often Titi Sriwahyuni, the author, had by far the most substantial total link strength with a value of 28, followed by Ahmaddul Hadi and Dedy Irfan, whom both had a total link strength value of 24 and 21. It is interesting to note that Ahmaddul Hadi, the most prolific author at Universitas Negeri Padang, can be located in the third cluster. In this cluster, he is responsible for 15 collaborative works and has a total link strength of 24. As a consequence, one might conclude that Ahmaddul Hadi does not have a link that is incredibly close to the primary authors of this association. Figure 3. Ahmaddul Hadi in co-authorship analysis Figure 3 illustrates that Ahmaddul Hadi is a part of cluster 3 and that his only connections are to clusters 2 This is only possible since collaboration is allowed within the same scientific field.

Agariadne Dwinggo Samala Journal of Systems Engineering and Information Technology (JOSEIT) Vol. 2 No. 2 Analysis of the Journals A total of 1094 papers have been published in seven different journals by the Engineering Faculty at Universitas Negeri Padang. This was followed by the Jurnal Teknik Elektro dan Vokasional (JTEV) with 189 publications and the Jurnal Inovasi Vokasional dan Teknologi (INVOTEK) with 161 publications. The Vocational Teknik Elektronika dan Informatika (VOTETEKNIKA) had the most papers, with 445 publications. Bradford's scattering law is an example of a classical analytic rule for categorizing journals and finding core journals in According to this hypothesis, the quantity distribution of professional documents in the linked journals is highly asymmetric or oblique. There is a clear quantity relationship between professional documents and the journals they belong to . When these journals are evaluated correctly, it is possible to differentiate between the "core zone," which is the location where most of the articles were published, and the succeeding areas, which have the same number of papers as the core region.

Index Citations Mean Total Citation By doing more research on the citations of works published in journals, we will be able to determine which journals possess the best possible quality. Table 7 determines the total amount of citations received by each article . As listed in Table 7, the ranking was obtained by comparing each article's total number of citations. INVOTEK (Journal Inovasi Vokasi Dan Teknolog. has been cited 184 times. It is a well-recognized journal that publishes a substantial quantity of scholarly research from this faculty. Jurnal Inovasi Vokasi dan Teknologi (INVOTEK) is a double-blind peer-reviewed journal for research linked to Technical. Vocational. Education, and Training (TVET). This journal offers complete access to its material based on the belief that making research freely accessible to the scientific community and the general public promotes a more significant global flow of ideas and the expansion of expertise in Vocational Education and Training.

Agariadne Dwinggo Samala Journal of Systems Engineering and Information Technology (JOSEIT) Vol. 2 No. Nizwardi Jalinus, who has authored ten articles and received 16 citations in 2022, is now regarded as the most productive author in the INVOTEK journal (Table . He is also the piece that has been quoted the most in this publication. Regarding the research category, the education category is the most prominent in this journal's collection of research topics (Figure . Figure 4. Documents by subject area 3 Trend Research It is possible to extract a text's core ideas and substance by employing keywords. Using keywords, we can find hotspots for study in several scientific fields. The word "hasil belajar," which was used 127 times, was found to be used the most frequently. This was followed by the terms "mata pelajaran" . and "rancang bangun," which were found to be used the least . Researchers have a higher opportunity to discover and capture the relevant research problems, emerging trends, and research focuses when they employ keyword analysis. Using the VOS viewer as our data source, we construct a map based on the term co-occurrence of 1094 different articles. VOSviewer is a software application that may be used to produce maps based on network data, display and analyze the resulting maps, and then export the results of these analyses. With the aid of VOSviewer, one can construct networks consisting of scientific articles, journals, researchers, research organizations, countries, keywords, or ideas. Items included within these networks may be related to one another in various ways, including but not limited to co-authorship, co-occurrence, citation, bibliographic coupling, and co-citation relationships . Figure 5. Word cloud in title According to the findings of an analysis that included extracting text from the titles of these seven journals, the term "berbasis" was found to be the one that appeared the most often. The terms "sistem," "belajar," and "pembelajaran" are listed next, as illustrated in the word cloud in Figure 5. It is possible to conclude that the study areas covered in these seven journals fall squarely under the educational category while most studies are conducted in the city of Padang and at SMK. The data shown in Figure 6 illustrates that the ratio of the size of the circular node to the frequency with which the keywords appear grows correspondingly. The degree to which a node is linked may be thought of as a representation of the link's overall strength. When there is a more considerable relevance to the relationship, there will be a greater likelihood that it will be cited many times on the same page. DOI: https://doi. org/10. 29207/joseit.

The primary contact person for this piece of writing is Hendra Dani Saputra, who is now employed at Universitas Negeri Padang in the Automotive Engineering Education The same academic institutions contributed to the writing of the essay in a collaborative effort. Conclusion The Faculty of Engineering at Universitas Negeri Padang published a total of 1094 papers throughout 20142022, with an average of 2. 55 articles being published each year, as shown by the data that was gathered from seven different journals. In the Dimensions database, the average number of citations received by each article published by the Engineering Faculty at Universitas Negeri Padang is 0. The fact that this average has a value that is too low to be meaningful suggests that the contribution made by the publication has yet to be acknowledged and that it has a minimal impact on the state of knowledge worldwide. Most articles were found in the field of education . , next in the field of curriculum and pedagogy . , and finally in the field of information and computing sciences .

Agariadne Dwinggo Samala Journal of Systems Engineering and Information Technology (JOSEIT) Vol. 2 No. The study results indicate that most collaboration occurs nationally with academics from Universitas Negeri Andalas. It is in contrast to the fact that international collaboration takes place less often. International collaboration was not found in these seven journals. Ahmaddul Hadi, who worked at the Informatics Department, emerged as the most prolific author during his career, with 38 papers published and ten citations While Nizwardi Jalinus have the highest h-index for their combined number of articles across all seven We will be able to identify the journals of the highest possible quality after we have completed more studies on the citations of works published in journals. A significant amount of the academic research carried out by this faculty is published in the peer-reviewed journal Inovasi Vokasi Dan Teknologi (INVOTEK), a respected References
