Scopus Introduction

Scopus
Scopus is an interdisciplinary citation and abstract database covering (as of July 2016) more than 21,500 peer-reviewed journals, tracking cited and citing literature.

Scopus can be used to identify highly cited authors and institutions, authors writing in specific journals in a field, and much more. It can also be used as a quality filter in research for finding "highly cited" papers that match your keywords, using the feature of sorting results by the number of times cited in other scientific papers.
