Research Metrics: Quality, Quantity, and "ATSUMI" Indexes

Introducing Superior Cultivars of Gladiolus by Important Quality and Quantity Indexes

Suitable selection of cultivars, is one of the important determinant factors that affects on quantity and quality of bulb flowers at the climate of Iran. In order to, introducing superior cultivars of gladiolus for cultivation in temperate regions of Iran, the experiment was carried out in a complete randomized block design (CRBD) in three replications with five cultivars of gladiolus including...

Quality versus quantity: assessing individual research performance.

Evaluating individual research performance is a complex task that ideally examines productivity, scientific impact, and research quality--a task that metrics alone have been unable to achieve. In January 2011, the French Academy of Sciences published a report on current bibliometric (citation metric) methods for evaluating individual researchers, as well as recommendations for the integration o...

Composite indexes as metrics of cooperative activity

This paper proposes a method based on composite indexes to reflect the level of computer–supported cooperative activity. This approach is innovative in the sense that it extends a purely quantitative approach with some qualitative contextual elements. Indeed, the indexes integrate two basic features of the computer-supported interactions within a group: the number of occurrences and the coopera...
