Correspondence Courses

Among various lecture notes for basically all my lectures, I have written more elaborate correspondance courses:

  • Managers Introduction to Information Technology, Correspondence Course for the Henley Management College, Henley-On-Thames, Oxfordshire, UK (2000).
  • Mathematical Foundations of Public Policy, Correspondence Course, University of Erfurt 2002.

More Generic Information on Publishing and Metrics

Average citation rates up to 2010 in Mathematics for articles written between 2000 and 2010 1) - meaning that an article written in 2000 has 6.76 citations on average until 2010:

2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010
6.76 6.05 5.99 5.39 4.80 4.19 3.36 2.51 1.67 0.86 0.14

leading to an average citation per article of 3.48 in a decade.

For the full research articles below in 1/2022 around 2635 citations are recorded by Scopus, which is an average of more than 21 citations per article (121 documents) with an h-index of 26. Google Scholar records 4803 citations (1689 since 2017), an h-index of 35 (20 since 2017) and an i10-index of 78 (45 since 2017). The map on the right indicates the location of institutions citing the articles. MathSciNet in 01/2022 shows 1295 citations by 691, compare image.

Today, often citation metrics play an important role in judging scientists. But we need to understand that citation counts rather reflect the activity in some layer of science or some particular field rather than the quality of the science of a researcher. In the last years, my work is moving step by step towards enabling scientists to do their work, getting the money in for them to do the research and to shape the programs which enable them to make progress.
