In Figure 10 eight CSETs and major themes are shown. Factor 1 counterposes computer engineering (left) to biosciences (right). Factor 2 counterposes software on the positive end to hardware on the negative end. This 2-dimensional map encapsulates 64% (for factor 1) + 29% (for factor 2) =
93% of all information, i.e. inertia, in the dual clouds of points. CSETs are positioned relative to the thematic areas used. In Figure 11, sub-themes are additionally projected into the display. This is done by taking the sub-themes as supplementary elements following the analysis as such: see Appendix for a short introduction to this. From Figure 11 we might wish to label additionally factor 2 as a polarity of data and physics, associated with the extremes of software and hardware.

In Figure 12 CSET budgets are shown, as ¤ million over 5 years, and themes are also displayed. In this way we use the map to show characteristics of the CSETs, in this case budgets.

Figure 13 shows 12 SRCs (Strategic Research Clusters) that started at the end of 2007. The planar space into which the SRCs are projected is identical to Figures 10–12. This projection is accomplished by supplementary elements (see Appendix).

Figure 14 shows one property of the SRCs, their budgets in ¤ million over
