Moving forward from the impact factor, it will cover usage (download) measurements from the MESUR project; author level indices such as the Hirsch index and derivatives; and eigenvector (PageRank) style metrics such as the EigenFactor and the SCImago Journal Rank Indicator. <BR/><BR/>www.alpsp.org/ngen_public/article.asp?aid=44958Alison Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05995053767165290334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1761272933624963742.post-52928110034019395302009-02-19T11:41:00.000+00:002009-02-19T11:41:00.000+00:00A useful summary - thank you!Ruth JA useful summary - thank you!<BR/><BR/>Ruth JAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
