Research activities are considered prominent part of innovation and consequent wealth generation
in any advanced country, thus the need for policy makers and wider public to get insight into the quality of
research outputs is legitimate. However, qualitative evaluation techniques meet a number of difficulties. This
paper addresses a novel quantitative methodology to indicate a measure of the performance of research chairs
in King Saud University (KSU). It proposes an Evaluation Criteria (EC) assures sustainable competition among
different Research Chairs (RCs). The best RC - if compared to the remaining RCs - is the one achieves more
considerable scientific events (activates) with less cost and within shorter period of time. The study aims to be
a further contribution to the assessment of a road map toward an equal internationally shared, quantitative
evaluation system.
Key words: Bibliometric indicators, King Saud University (KSU), non-bibliometric indicators, performance evaluation, quantitative indicators, Research Chairs (RCs),
