Validating research performance metrics against peer rankings
A rich and diverse set of potential bibliometric and scientometric predictors of research performance quality and importance are emerging today — from the classic metrics (publication counts, journal impact factors and individual article/author citation counts) to promising new online metrics such as download counts, hub/authority scores and growth/decay chronometrics. In and of themselves, how...

متن کاملValidating a Peer-to-Peer Evolutionary Algorithm
This paper proposes a simple experiment for validating a Peer-to-Peer Evolutionary Algorithm in a real computing infrastructure in order to verify that results meet those obtained by simulations. The validation method consists of conducting a well-characterized experiment in a large computer cluster of up to a number of processors equal to the population estimated by the simulator. We argue tha...
متن کاملMetrics and Rankings: Myths and Fallacies
In this paper we provide an introduction to the field of Bibliometrics. In particular, first we briefly describe its beginning and its evolution; we mention the main research fora as well. Further we categorize metrics according to their entity scope: metrics for journals, conferences and authors. Several rankings have appeared based on such metrics. It is argued that these metrics and rankings...
متن کاملValidating Peer-to-Peer Storage Audits with Evolutionary Game Theory
This paper discusses the efficiency of audits as incentives for reducing free-riding in P2P storage applications, that is, lessening the number of peers that can store their data without contributing to the storage infrastructure. Audits are remote data verifications that can also be used to decide whether to cooperate with a given peer based on its behavior. We demonstrate how an audit-based s...
