Table 4. Comparison of journal ranking by Brown and Ramaswamy [19] with rankings of the same journals created using PQ1(t,d).
Numbers of structures considered from a given journal are shown in parentheses. The top three journals according to B&R are highlighted in green, the bottom three journals are highlighted in red.
