Improvement of Traditional Methods of Evaluation of the Scientific Activities Using Innovative Approaches

The problems of evaluating the research conducted by the scientific organization, groups of scientists and individual scientists and other actions related to their scientific activities have always been and still remain a serious challenge in modern scientific circles. Dataware and software issues for evaluating the scientific activities are discussed in this paper. Along with the traditional methods of evaluation, altmetrics – a new way of assessing research beyond citation, is taken into account. According to the basic idea of altmetrics, the evaluation of the scientific results should be based not only on the number of published articles and their citations, but also on the responses to the papers published in various sources. This principle gives rise to the idea that the altmetric methodology of dataware can play a crucial role in solving various problems arising in the process of scientific work. Therefore, for overcoming the existing problems in the sphere of research and evaluating scientific results, the information on the involvement of scientists in the context of emerging/existing problems, for which the appropriate recommendations have been elaborated, should be taken into account.
