Thanks for your replies. Obviously this is just one step in an ongoing
and thorough selection process.
Currently, we input an author into WoK, weed out the incorrect
publications (belonging to someone of the same name), which takes a lot
of time, and generate the H-index. Then we have to determine the impact
factor of each publication and add this up for a total impact factor. As
all applicants have sent in their publication lists, it's easiest to do
this by hand - at least you don't have to go through through the weeding
out process.
What I'm looking for is a database where each author has a unique
identifier, so publications belonging to someone with the same name are
automatically weeded out. Each publication should be listed with its
impact factor, so that these can be easily tallied. And of course, the
database should provide automatic h-factor calculation.
Sounds like these features don't exist in one package yet.
Greetings,
JAL
