Overview

The scientific conference ranking presented on this page offers an authoritative evaluation of conferences in the field of Engineering and Technology. This comprehensive ranking has been meticulously prepared by Research.com, a leading platform recognized for providing trusted data on scientific contributions across all major disciplines—including Engineering and Technology—since 2014.

The conference positions are determined by a unique bibliometric score devised by Research.com. This score is computed by integrating the estimated h-index of conference publications with the number of leading scientists who have participated in each conference over the most recent three-year period. The included Impact Score values were gathered as of 2024-11-27, ensuring the ranking’s currency and relevance.

The ranking process encompassed an in-depth review of more than 2,262 conferences. These were selected following a rigorous and detailed examination of over 26,934 scientific documents published during the previous three years. The analysis took into account the contributions of 9,385 leading and well-respected scientists within the Engineering and Technology sector. This multi-layered approach underscores the depth of research and expert analysis applied in assembling the ranking, reflecting a commitment to accuracy, integrity, and the promotion of academic excellence.

For those interested in understanding the comprehensive methodology used to compute the ranking scores, a detailed overview is available on our Methodology Page.

Papers citation over time

A key indicator for each conference is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.

The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.

The top authors publishing at International Conference on Control and Automation (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Lihua Xie (33 papers) published 4 papers at the last edition, 3 less than at the previous edition,
  • Ben M. Chen (29 papers) published 3 papers at the last edition, 5 less than at the previous edition,
  • Tong Heng Lee (20 papers) published 1 paper at the last edition the same number as at the previous edition,
  • Tri Tran (18 papers) published 2 papers at the last edition the same number as at the previous edition,
  • Jian-Xin Xu (17 papers) absent at the last edition.

The overall trend for top authors publishing at this conference is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the conference for top authors.

Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered

The top affiliations publishing at International Conference on Control and Automation (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Nanyang Technological University (125 papers) published 14 papers at the last edition, 8 less than at the previous edition,
  • National University of Singapore (115 papers) published 9 papers at the last edition, 4 less than at the previous edition,
  • Zhejiang University (79 papers) published 6 papers at the last edition, 3 more than at the previous edition,
  • Beihang University (76 papers) published 26 papers at the last edition, 12 more than at the previous edition,
  • Tsinghua University (56 papers) published 18 papers at the last edition, 14 more than at the previous edition.

The overall trend for top affiliations publishing at this conference is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the conference for top affiliations.

Publication chance based on affiliation

The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions at the conference edition to all articles published within that conference. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the conference.

The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.

During the most recent 2019 edition, 8.96% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 21.76% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing at the conference. Another 15.03% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 14.16% of all publications and 49.05% were from other institutions.

Returning Authors Index

A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of conferences they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same conference from year to year.

The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the conference in relation to all participants in a given year.

Returning Institution Index

The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.

The experience to innovation index

Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing at a conference. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a conference, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).

The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:

  • Novice - P < 5 or C < 25 (the number of publications less than 5 or the number of citations less than 25),
  • Competent - P < 10 or C < 100 (the number of publications less than 10 or the number of citations less than 100),
  • Experienced - P < 25 or C < 625 (the number of publications less than 25 or the number of citations less than 625),
  • Master - P < 50 or C < 2500 (the number of publications less than 50 or the number of citations less than 2500),
  • Star - P ≥ 50 and C ≥ 2500 (both the number of publications greater than 50 and the number of citations greater than 2500).

The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.

Related Online Degrees & Career Pathways

Exploring online education options can be a smart move for those interested in Electronics and Electrical Engineering.
