Abstract

Article presents a proposition and evaluation of a new method of scientific output evaluation. Presented method may be considered as complementary to publication evaluation. It uses up-to-date findings of BigData in order to explore local databases. Proposed method is scalable, it may be successfully applied for scientific evaluation of individual scholars, research teams and units, up to university size.
