“…First, a cross‐sectional design was used and the literature search was conducted at a single moment in time. The primary objective was to identify and analyze the 50 most cited publications in the Dental Traumatology journal based on the absolute citation count in the Scopus database only because it automatically excludes self‐citations and provides 20% more coverage than Web of Science . It is quite possible that other articles with higher citation counts among databases such as Web of Science and Google Scholar were not included in this study.…”

Second, the time factor would also have a definite impact as recently published articles are at a clear disadvantage because of insufficient time to accumulate a relatively greater number of citations irrespective of their content and quality.…”

Background/Aims The impact of a scientific article in its respective field is reflected by its citation count. The purpose of this review was to conduct a citation analysis in order to identify and analyze the top 50 most cited articles published in Dental Traumatology since its inception in order to highlight the contribution of the journal to the field of Dental Traumatology. Methods Elsevier's Scopus was used to search and analyze the 50 most frequently cited scientific papers. After the screening process, two reviewers arranged the articles in a descending order based on their citation counts. Each article was then cross‐matched with Google Scholar. The articles were analyzed, and information including citation counts, citation density, publication year, authorship, contributing institutions and countries, article topic, study design, and keywords was extracted. Results The literature search identified 2421 articles. The citation counts of the 50 selected articles varied from 117 to 580 (Scopus) and 206 to 1130 (Google Scholar). The year in which most top 50 articles were published was 2002 (n = 5). Among 105 authors, the greatest contribution was made by JO Andreasen (n = 12). Most of the articles originated from the United States (n = 12) with the greatest contributions from the University Hospital (Rigshospitalet), Copenhagen, Denmark (n = 6). Original research article was the most frequent study design (n = 34). The majority of the top 50 articles were focused on traumatic dental injuries. Among 131 unique key words, root resorption (n = 6) was the most frequently used. A non‐significant correlation occurred between citation count (correlation coefficient = 0.127, P = .378), citation density (correlation coefficient = 0.654, P = 2.493), and publication age. Conclusions This study identified the top 50 most cited articles published in this journal in the specialty of Dental Traumatology. The publication year of an article was not significantly associated with citation count nor citation density.

“…Our study has several limitations that are similar to other studies in citation classics [21]. These limitations include the presence of inherent problems in the citation process itself, for example, incomplete or inappropriate citations, biased citation [44,45,52,53]; changes in the list of citation classics with time making it a snapshot of the current state of research [54]; absence of articles with languages other than English which is mostly because authors are more likely to cite articles in their own language, and English articles are more likely to be cited overall [20]; and finally, missing of important studies because their findings became well known [55]. The latter point is relevant here because brucellosis was discovered in 1887 and it is possible that some important studies were not indexed in current database but their findings are now considered well known.…”

“…This is because the databases differ in reporting the citation count for a particular article. The variation in citation count between databases results from differences in journal coverage and quality [44]. Scopus includes a more expanded spectrum of journals than WOS, and its citation analysis is faster and includes more articles than the citation analysis of WOS [45].…”

Citation classics represent the highest impact work in a given field. We aim to identify and analyze the most frequently cited papers on brucellosis. We used the databases Scopus and Web of Science to determine the most frequently cited papers. The most cited fifty papers in each database were identified. We then ranked the papers according to the highest citation count recorded from any of the two databases. The most frequently cited paper received 964 citations and was by DelVecchio VG et al. reporting the complete genomic sequencing of Brucella melitensis. The papers were published in 30 journals led by the “Infection and Immunity” journal and the “Veterinary Microbiology” journal (each had 7 papers). Citation classics in brucellosis were all in English except one in French and were mostly of basic science type. In addition, we noticed that 12 articles that were identified among the highest fifty articles in one database were missed by the other database and vice versa. Therefore, we suggest that searching in more than one database would detect additional citation classics.

Companies are taking advantage of cloud computing to upgrade their business processes. Cloud computing requires interaction with many kinds of applications, so it is necessary to improve the performance of software tools that allow keeping information on all these applications consistent and synchronised. Integration platforms are specialised software tools that provide support to design, implement, run, and monitor integration solutions, which aim to orchestrate a set of applications so as to promote compatibility among their data or to develop new functionality on top of the current ones. The run-time system is the part of the integration platform responsible for running the integration solutions, which makes its performance the uttermost important issue. The contribution of this article is two-fold: a framework and an evaluation of integration platforms. The former is a framework composed of ten properties grouped into two dimensions to evaluate the run-time systems focusing on performance. Using this framework as reference, the second contribution is an evaluation of nine open-source integration platforms, which represent the state-of-the-art, provide support to the integration patterns, and follow the pipes-and-filters architectural style. In addition, as a result of this work, we suggest open research directions that can be explored to improve the performance of the run-time systems and at the same time may be useful to adapt them to the context of cloud computing. KEYWORDScloud computing, enterprise application integration, integration patterns, integration platform, run-time system Companies often need to use their software ecosystems 1,2 to support and improve their business processes. These ecosystems are composed of many applications, usually designed without taking into account their possible integration. The field of study known as Enterprise Integration Applications (EAI) seeks to provide methodologies, techniques, and tools for the design and implementation of integration solutions. 3 In general terms, an integration solution aims to orchestrate a set of applications to keep them synchronised or provide new features that can be built from those already developed. An integration solution is composed of processes that contain the integration logic and ports that encapsulate adapters with communication protocols to connect applications to the integration solution. . 341 language is focused on the elaboration of conceptual models for the integration solution, with a level of abstraction close to the domain of the problem. The development toolkit is a set of tools that allows the implementation of the solution, that is, the transformation of the conceptual model into executable code. The testing environment allows testing individual parts or the entire integration solution, with the aim of identifying and eliminating possible defects in the implementation. The monitoring tool is used to monitor, at run time, the operation of the integration solution and detects errors that may occur during message proce...
