Comment (by breun):

 I downloaded both the versions for Mac OS X and the one for 'other
 systems'.

 Running `VOSviewer.app` indeed shows a dialog saying `Unable to load Java
 Runtime Environment.` and then quits.

 The download for 'other systems' is just a JAR file and that one works
 fine (although it does log an error message about CoreSVG):

 {{{
 ~ % echo $JAVA_HOME
 /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/openjdk8/Contents/Home
 ~ % java -jar Downloads/VOSviewer_1.6.16_jar/VOSviewer.jar
 }}}

 So, I guess there might be a bug in the logic in `VOSviewer.app` that
 tries to locate the Java Runtime Environment. This might be something to
 report to the developer.
