  By taking into account the effects of leading particles, we discuss the
pseudorapidity distributions of the charged particles produced in high energy
heavy ion collisions in the context of evolution-dominated hydrodynamic model.
The leading particles are supposed to have a Gaussian rapidity distribution
normalized to the number of participants. A comparison is made between the
theoretical results and the experimental measurements performed by BRAHMS and
PHOBOS Collaboration at BNL-RHIC in Au-Au and Cu-Cu collisions at sqrt(s_NN)
=200 GeV and by ALICE Collaboration at CERN-LHC in Pb-Pb collisions at
sqrt(s_NN) =2.76 TeV.
