However, the development of ICT has enabled modern man to make science much more accessible to him/ her. For that reason, today, there are many more scientists who are trying to change the world for the better with their activities. In the race for new knowledge and original discoveries, scientists want to be better than others. Different metrics are used to measure quality among scientists.
