Call for Papers

The 18th International Conference on Availability, Reliability and Security (“ARES – The International Dependability Conference”) will bring together researchers and practitioners.

ARES

…will highlight the various aspects of dependability – with special focus on the crucial linkage between availability, reliability and security.

…aims at a full and detailed discussion of the research issues of dependability as an integrative concept that covers amongst others availability, safety, confidentiality, integrity, maintainability and security in the different fields of applications.

…will emphasize the interplay between foundations and practical issues of dependability in emerging areas such as e-government, location-based applications, ubiquitous computing, autonomous computing, changes of grid computing etc.

…is devoted to the critical examination and research challenges of the various aspects of Dependable Computing and the definition of a future road map.

The acceptance rate of the ARES 2022 conference was 21,73% (full papers only). ARES 2022 was published by the International Conference Proceedings Series published by ACM (ACM ICPS).

Overview

The ranking presented on this page offers a comprehensive listing of scientific conferences within the field of Computer Science. Developed by Research.com, one of the leading platforms for science research across all major disciplines—including Computer Science—this ranking reflects the commitment to providing reliable and accurate data on scientific contributions since 2014.

Conference positions in this ranking are determined by a distinctive bibliometric score formulated by Research.com experts. This score is calculated by considering two primary metrics: the estimated h-index, and the number of leading scientists who have participated in each conference over the past three years. This rigorous approach ensures that only conferences demonstrating consistent excellence and scholarly impact are highlighted.

The Impact Score values featured in this ranking were gathered on 2024-11-27, ensuring that the information is current and reflective of recent academic activity. The process of assembling this ranking involved an extensive analysis of more than 2,742 conferences, which were carefully selected following an in-depth review of over 148,739 scientific documents published in the last three years by 13,184 highly respected scientists specializing in Computer Science.

This ranking is the result of a thorough and sophisticated evaluation process, emphasizing the breadth and expertise applied by the team at Research.com. For more comprehensive details regarding the methodology employed in computing these ranking scores, please visit 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 Availability, Reliability and Security (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Martin Gilje Jaatun (19 papers) published 1 paper at the last edition, 1 less than at the previous edition,
  • Kristian Beckers (14 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Edgar Weippl (14 papers) published 2 papers at the last edition, 1 less than at the previous edition,
  • Andreas Holzinger (13 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Günther Pernul (12 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 Availability, Reliability and Security (based on the number of publications) are:

  • SINTEF (37 papers) published 2 papers at the last edition, 2 less than at the previous edition,
  • Norwegian University of Science and Technology (25 papers) published 3 papers at the last edition,
  • Vienna University of Technology (24 papers) published 2 papers at the last edition the same number as at the previous edition,
  • Technische Universität Darmstadt (22 papers) published 12 papers at the last edition, 10 more than at the previous edition,
  • Fraunhofer Society (19 papers) published 2 papers at the last edition, 1 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 2017 edition, 10.00% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 25.56% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing at the conference. Another 10.00% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 7.78% of all publications and 56.67% 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.
