Abstract
Many indexes concerned with measuring the quality of the scientific scholars’ output have appeared with the beginning of the internet due to several reasons such as: the diversity of the internet applications (or web applications), the increase in the digital publishing of open access sources, and the multiplicity of websites. These indexes take the network measurements as an application hub. This study, tries to diagnose the strength and weakness points of the approved indexes. It also suggests new index that combines all the traditional indexes’ characteristics and overcomes their weakness points. This unified index is used to evaluate the scientific outcomes of scientists and scholars. After applying and comparing the unified index, the researcher concluded that the value of the new index was more accurate and objective than the values of other traditional indexes. Moreover, the possibility to overcome some negatives points of the other indexes was shown, as well.
