Abstract: The progressing bloom in the tome of scientific literature available today debars researchers from efficiently shrewd the relevant from irrelevant content. Researchers are persistently engrossed in impactful papers, authors, and venues in their respective fields. Impact of an article depends on the citation received but just a citation count can’t give readers in-depth information about the article. That is the reason some articles are quantified unfairly on the basis of a citation count. In this paper, Global Citation Impact (GCI) is proposed which addresses the issue of considering citations of papers equally. Intuitively, the papers citing a paper are not of the same worth. The proposed index not only considers the number of citations (popularity) like many existing methods did but also considers the worth of citations (prestige). Results and discussions show that researcher whose work is cited by other prestigious papers gets higher rank which is quite fair crediting for research impact.
