5.1 Publications
In the period 1996-2010, the TEIs of Athens, Thessaloniki and Crete were found to produce the majority of publications in this category. However, their output decreased in the period following 2008.
In 2010, there were 9 TEIs which produced above 20 scientific publications: (Figure 5.1.1): TEI of Athens (102), TEI of Thessaloniki (72), TEI of Crete (69), TEI of Larissa (41), TEI of Piraeus (30), TEI of Kavala (29), TEI of Western Macedonia (28), TEI of Lamia (27), TEI of Kalamata (20).
Figure 5.1.2 presents the level of growth for "TEIs" publications output. This is further complemented by Figure 5.1.2, which plots the number of publications by TEI and their year-on-year rate of change from 1996 to 2000.
Figure 5.1.3 presents data related to the quantity of publication output by each TEI and its share in the total output of the category "TEIs" –over the period 2006-2010–. "TEIs" were ranked in a descending order as follows: ΤΕΙ of Athens 480 (21.2%), ΤΕΙ of Crete 373 (16.5%), ΤΕΙ of Thessaloniki 331 (14.6%), ΤΕΙ of Larissa 170 (7.5%), ΤΕΙ of Piraeus 142 (6.3%), ΤΕΙ of Western Macedonia 131 (5.8%).
