A Google-like Portal of the World's Leading Scientists
by Bibhuti Bhusan Sahoo 28 Jul '03

28 Jul '03

ISIHighlyCited.com calls itself "an expert gateway to the most highly influential scientists and scholars worldwide," using similar techniques to Google's PageRank to identify these intellectual leaders. This free search tool makes it easy to identify individuals, departments and laboratories that have made fundamental contributions to the advancement of science and technology over the past several decades. Google's PageRank algorithm uses many of the same techniques involved in citation analysis to get a sense of the most important pages on the web, based on the number and quality of links pointing to them. ISIHighlyCited.com plans to include the top 250 preeminent individual researchers in 21 subject categories who have demonstrated great influence in their field as measured by citations to their work. Bibliography with links to the full bibliographic information indexed in the ISI Web of Science. ISIHighlyCited is similar to ResearchIndex, an academic computer science search engine that also does a lot of extensive citation analysis. Both tools are excellent resources for tracking research trends through literature references. To learn more about citation analysis and how it reveals useful information about who's who and what's what, see the article "How Does ISI Identify Highly Cited Researchers? follow the link http://isihighlycited.com/isi_copy/Comm_news08.htm -- ================================ Bibhuti Bhusan Sahoo JRF, DRTC, Indian Statistical Institute 8th mile, Mysore Road R.V.College P.O.
