Selected Journal Publications
B.Thummadi, S.Paruchuri, “Presence of Location-Based Agglomeration Effects in Open Source Communities: An Empirical Test on GitHub”, Academy of Management Discoveries (AMD), 2022 (ABS Ranking: 3) (Equal contribution).
AMD is a premier quarterly journal published by Academy of Management and publishes phenomenon-driven empirical research that theories of management and organizations neither adequately predict nor explain.
AMD, because it is on the ESCI (Emerging Source Citation Index), has been granted a JCI (Journal Citation Indicator), which is a new three-year normalized metric from Clarivate. AMD ranking of 1.26 is similar to OBHDP, Management Science, and Organization Science. (Source: https://aom.org/research/publishing-with-aom/author-resources/submitting-to-discoveries#FAQ)
AMD debuted on the 2021 ABS journal list as a 3. AMD is on the ABDC journal list as an A.
