Generalized Idea Protcol (GIP) will allow us to track the evolution of ideas over time as well as quantify the similarity of two ideas. GIP will facilitate the efficient sharing of the ideas and prevent the community from reinventing wheels, thereby accelerating the pace of the scientific research.
The level of expertise or e-value of an entity (general individual, researcher, research group, organization, etc.) in a research domain D will be computed using e-function.
