Ringkasan	Web of Science (WoS) is the oldest and most established multidisciplinary citation database, maintained by Clarivate Analytics since 1964. It indexes over 21,000 peer-reviewed journals, conference proceedings, and books across sciences, social sciences, and humanities. WoS provides researchers, librarians, and administrators with comprehensive citation tracking, publication metrics, and research evaluation tools essential for literature review, impact assessment, and research strategy.	The h-index, or Hirsch index, is a quantitative metric proposed by physicist Jorge Hirsch in 2005 to measure researcher productivity and citation impact simultaneously. A researcher has an h-index of h if they have published at least h papers, each cited at least h times. For example, an h-index of 20 means the researcher has 20 papers each cited at least 20 times. The h-index is widely used in research evaluation, hiring, and promotion decisions, though experts debate its limitations. It provides a single number balancing quantity of publications against quality of citations, offering an intuitive summary of research career impact.
