The 9th edition of Research.com ranking of the best universities in the field
of Computer Science was created using data derived from
a wide range of data sources including OpenAlex and CrossRef. The bibliometric data for
evaluating the citation-based metrics were acquired on 21-12-2022.
Position in the ranking is based on a sum of D-indexes (Discipline H-index) of all ranking
scientist's affiliated with a given institution. D-index
takes into account only publications and citation
metrics for an examined discipline.

The scope of our Computer Science research
Research.com’s best universities ranking is a credible list of
leading researchers from the area of Computer Science ,
established by means of a meticulous examination
of 166,880 scholars determined from
a variety of bibliometric data sources. For the field of
Computer Science, as many as 14402 scientists were
examined.
What is D-index acceptance threshold for Computer Science
The D-index threshold for approving a scientist to be
considered is set to 30 if
the majority of of their publications are in the field of Computer Science. The
approval requirements for scholars to be
considered into the ranking of top researchers are based on the D-index,
ratio of the publications made within the selected
discipline as well as the awards and achievements of the
scholars. The D-index threshold for listing best
scholars is set as an increment of 10 depending on the total number of
scholars assessed for each
scientific field whilst making sure that the top 1% of
best researchers are considered into the list.
We estimate a proximity of 30% or less between a
scholar’s general H-index and their D-index.
Additional verification methods
Because our main goal is to ensure that only
actual scientists are listed in
the ranking we believe that metrics are never
meant to be a full means to assess the
work of scientists. For that reason
we manually verify every profile and cross-correlate it against publications in a
varied range of reliable sources. Even though it’s not a
element defining a scholar’s position in
our ranking, the number of documents published in
well-known journals and conference proceedings should constitute a
reliable secondary implication of their contribution to research in a
given field of study. Position in the ranking is
determined by every scholar’s D-index
with the help of data compiled from OpenAlex and
CrossRef, which are the most trustworthy and well-known bibliometric
databases of this kind open to the scientific community. A
thorough definition of our research procedures
can be found on our
methodology page.
Our agenda
Our goal is to inspire researchers,
companies and administrative bodies
worldwide to investigate where leading experts are heading
and to provide a way for the entire research community to
get to know who the leading experts in specific
fields of research, in various countries, or even within research
institutions are.
