Abstract: This study measuring the research productivity of centre with potential for Excellence in Particular Area (CPEPA), status in Karnataka state. The research publication data, indexed in SCOPUS database for the three Institutions for 10 years (2010 â€“ 2019) are used for analysis. The parameters such as from-wise, year-wise, subject-wise classification of published papers, most productive authors, and the most preformed journals and citation impact and discipline â€“wise research strength of these three institutions. Measuring research productivity of the centre with potential for excellence in Particular Area (CPEPA) is measured and compared with three institutions such as Karnatak University, Dharwad, Bangalore University, Bangalore and University of Mysore, Mysore. Nowadays, the workflow of bibliometrics study has been automated because of the uses of software packages like (Bibliometrix R Package, Bib excel, VOSviewer, etc.) for automated bibliometrics workflow. In this article, we propose to utilize an open-source and exclusive tool, developed and produced in R language, for classic and logical bibliometrics study. For creating and visualizing a bibliometric network between author, sources, keywords, and publications we used VOSviewer software.

Keywords: Centre with Potential for Excellence in Particular Area, CPEPA, UGC, Measuring research, Research Productivity, Scopus, Scientometrics Analysis of the Research in High Profile of the Selected Institutions
