4 Influential Authors and Collaborations
In general, more than 2800 authors participated in the researches
of ILS from 2001 to 2020. Table 3 highlights the top ten (10)
most prolific authors on ILS presented with total publications,
total citations, ACPP, H Index, G Index, and Publication year
start. The results show that majority of the authors starting their
publication in the year between 2002 -2010. The list of most
prolific authors shows that Surla D. is the most productive author
with 14 publications, 220 citations, 15.71 ACPP, 10 H Index, and

that Ivanovic D. has the highest ACPP (16.83) of the total listed
authors.
The Collaboration Network or Collaboration between
authors on ILS research is presented in Figure 4. In this
figure total of 50, author names are displayed, some have
a connection, and some are not. The authors' relationship is
shown by clusters of color equations and lines between
one term and another. The size of each square also
indicates the number of papers published in this area. The
figure shows the collaboration between the nine (9)
clusters of authors, but there are the three (3) most
significant clusters in this study. The first cluster shows
the collaboration between Peisert S, Dart E, Barnett W,
Balas E, Cuff J, Grossman RL, Berman A. Shankar A, and
Tierney B. The second cluster shows the collaboration
between Bane T, Davidian C, Waterhouse J, Wilson RT,
Howell S, Rapoza D, Mueth S, Holman JS, Zuccaro J, and
Walton K. The authors who are not related and indexed in
the data above show no collaboration between the Author
