Muhtasari	Time-sliced bibliometric analysis partitions a literature corpus into consecutive time windows and applies standard bibliometric indicators (publication counts, citation patterns, co-authorship networks, keyword frequencies) within each window. By comparing results across slices, researchers can document how a field's productivity, intellectual structure, and thematic focus have shifted over time — providing a diachronic rather than static view of scholarly output.	Bibliometric analysis applies statistical and mathematical methods to bibliographic records — publications, citations, authors, journals, and keywords — to measure and map the structure, output, and intellectual evolution of a research field. It is widely used to identify influential works, prolific authors, productive journals, collaboration networks, and emerging research themes across any academic discipline.
