[R] Literature analysis

[Schwan]

Thanks for all the comments,

and sorry about the unstructured question! I am trying to:

1: analyze keywords, names from Authors and year of publication from
citations (with abstracts) i downloaded fron various sites(these
downloads can be converted into ".txt" files as well)
2: to cluster these literature according to the analyzed keywords,
authors or year of publication

The software Refviz I was referring to earlier can be found here:
http://refviz.com/

As I said, I have never worked with R before so I can not send any
example.

Hope this helps to understand my question better.

Cheers
