World ranking web of university:
CSIS - Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas, the largest public research body in Spain -published last week the new ranking of open access repositories.
The original aim of the Ranking was to promote Web publication. Supporting Open Access initiatives, electronic access to scientific publications and to other academic material are our primary targets. However web indicators are very useful for ranking purposes too as they are not based on number of visits or page design but on the global performance and visibility of the universities.
Four indicators were obtained from the quantitative results provided by the main search engines as follows:
- Size (S). Number of pages recovered from Google (10%)
- Visibility (V). The number of external links received (inlinks) multiplied by the referring domins for these inlinks, according to Majestic SEO historical data (50%).
- Rich Files (R). After evaluation of their relevance to academic and publication activities and considering the volume of the different file formats, the following were selected: Adobe Acrobat (.pdf), Adobe PostScript (.ps & .eps), Microsoft Word (.doc & .docx) and Microsoft Powerpoint (.ppt & .pptx). These data were extracted using Google (10%).
- Scholar (Sc). The data is a combination of items published between 2007 and 2011 included in Google Scholar and the global output (2003-2010) obtained from Scimago SIR (30%).
IMT obtained the 75° position in the Italian ranking (a total of 211 universities/institutions).
