Questions about CACM collection

406 Views Asked by At

I'm using CACM document collection. I tried to search more information on this collection online but unfortunately I didn't find what I was looking for. If I've understood correctly, this collection contains documents from a paper journal. As far as this is concerned, I don't understand why every document always cites itself (see only the links of type 5). I don't understand either why if document x cites document y, then document y cites document x (see only the links of type 5).

There is a Cornell Computer Science Technical Report written at the time the collection was created that describes the collection. See: http://hdl.handle.net/1813/6401
