According to a recent analysis of Essential Science Indicators from Thomson Scientific, Professor Ji-Huan He has been named a Rising Star in the field of Computer Science. His citation record in this field includes 21 papers cited a total of 306 times between January 1, 1997 and December 31, 2007. He also has 25 papers cited a total of 881 times in Engineering, and 16 papers cited a total of 87 times in Materials Science. His citation record in the Web of Science includes 137 papers cited a total of 3,193 times to date.

He is a rising star...
And so much he is responsible  for raising th eimpact facor for the journal he edited International Journal of Nonlinear Science and Numerical Simulations (IJNSNS).
IJNSNS has topped the impact factor chart for applied maths journals for the last four years by a massive margin. In 2009 its impact factor was more than double that of the second in line, the esteemed Communications on Pure and Applied Mathematics (CPAM). A panel of experts, however, had rated IJNSNS in its second-to-last category: as having a "solid, though not outstanding reputation". In the experts' opinion IJNSNS comes at best 75th in the applied maths journal rankings, nowhere near the top.

A first step to understanding IJNSNS's high impact factor is to look at how many authors contributed substantially to the counted citations, and who they were. The top-citing author to IJNSNS in 2008 was the journal's Editor-in-Chief, Ji-Huan He, who cited the journal (within the two-year window) 243 times. The second top-citer, D.D. Ganji, with 114 cites, is also a member of the editorial board, as is the third, regional editor Mohamed El Naschie, with 58 cites. Together these three account for 29% of the citations counted towards the impact factor. For comparison, the top three citers to SIREV contributed only 7, 4, and 4 citations, respectively, accounting for less than 12% of the counted citations, and none of these authors is involved in editing the journal. For CPAM the top three citers (9, 8, and 8) contributed about 7% of the citations, and, again, were not on the editorial board.
Another significant phenomenon is the extent to which citations to IJNSNS are concentrated within the 2-year window used in the impact factor calculation. Our analysis of 2008 citations to articles published since 2000 shows that 16% of the citations to CPAM fell within that 2-year window, and only 8% of those to SIREV did; in contrast, 71.5% of the 2008 citations to IJNSNS fell within the 2-year window.
 Ji Huan he also authored a fairy-tale paper on the mathematic of Magic Carpet
