The h Index for Computer Science
Source: http://www.cs.ucla.edu/~palsberg/h-number.html
In this paper, J. E. Hirsch, Dept of Physics, UCSD, proposes "the index h, defined as the number of papers with citation number higher or equal to h, as a useful index to characterize the scientific output of a researcher."
Here is a partial list of computer science researchers who each has an h index of 40 or higher according to Google Scholar. The list has more than 500 entries and includes 1 Nobel Laureate, 27 Turing Award winners, 65 members of the National Academy of Engineering, 7 members of the National Academy of Sciences, and 220 ACM Fellows. Send comments, corrections, and new entries to Jens Palsberg (UCLA). I made the most recent update on Jan 21, 2012.
I do maintain the list: mostly, I add people and update numbers upon request and when I happen to notice a high h index. Most of the numbers on this page are the results of counting efforts by the listed people themselves. I have computed some of the numbers myself by comparing output from Google Scholar with other listings of research papers, such as from personal webpages or DBLP. Whenever I notice that a person listed on this page has an entry on Google Scholar Citations, I create a link to that entry.
