There are many ways of measuring the influence of scientific journals. We will survey most of these measures but in this talk we will focus on two important measures of journal impact (EF and SJR) both employing a similar algorithm to the PageRank algorithm. We will explain in detail how these indicators are computed and provide axiomatic characterizations to underline their employments. Finally, we will discuss where and how these indicators are applied, and speak in general about journal and university rankings.
