The dataset contains all standard bibliographic information for each paper indexed plus year by year and total citation counts for each paper. There is a linked file of expected citation rates for each paper, based on the journal title, publication year and document type (article, review, editorial, etc.). Optional files of all Citing and/or Cited Papers may be ordered; these contain the same type of bibliographic data as the source papers. These data are generated from the mainframe computer at Thomson Scientific from a file not available to the public.

Data for each paper include: all author names, regardless of order of position; addresses with separate data elements for institutional name, department, section, lab, city, state, province, country; article title; journal title, including volume, beginning page number, year; document type; category; and of course, annual and total citation counts.

With this type of database detailed bibliographic and citation data on every paper the data can be searched, grouped, summarized, and ranked using any data elements, such as author names (all author names), institution, discipline, year, citation count, collaborating institutions or nations, etc. These data, in this database structure, allow virtually any type of analysis of output of papers and influence in terms of total citations or average citations per paper.

The data are delivered on CD in MS Access format with a custom Windows-based, or Web interface.
