摘要:This looks into some issues appearing in scientific journals evaluation based on their impact factor (IF). An analysis of the publicly available data on journals IFs results in finding that there exist a significant number of journals publication years missing their IF data. Therefore, this article proposes the IF based rules enabling the determination of the journals category for the publication years with no IF available. Application of the proposed rules is illustrated through the example of the scientific fields of mathematics, computer science and mechanics. Finally, the examples of the evaluation completed by applying the proposed rules are given. Application of the proposed rules is automated within the CRIS system of the University of Novi Sad (CRIS UNS) using the data available in the database of this system.
