POINTS TO PONDER ON RP
• Sources of data: Institutions and Third Party Sources
In the absence of a reliable and comprehensive database that would supply
all relevant data required for computing the scores ranking, registered
institutions were invited to submit the required data through an online Data
Capturing System (DCS). Publications and citations data pertaining to research
output of applicant were taken from Scopus and Web of Science. Data on
patent published and grant was taken from Derwent Innovation. Moreover,
number of papers that appeared in the top 25 percentile of cited papers in
the world for a given disciple was taken as sub parameter for evaluating
research performance of institutions.

number of research articles published and citations received by them in last 3 years.
• Science Citation Index – Expanded (SCI- Expanded)

HEURISTIC MODEL
Points to Ponder
DF Using NT as a base and based on performance bench marks expected performance can be
generated for all the parameters.
The existing data against all parameters can be analyzed based on expected performance.
Acquire insights about how to quantify the data to better align areas of score improvement
Heuristic model can be developed based on existing data and statistical modeling to have an
estimate on the score.
In depth insight can be obtained about Institutions can take future policy decisions
