Overview

The Computer Science Conference Ranking presented on this page is a comprehensive and authoritative assessment of scientific conferences within the field of Computer Science. This ranking has been meticulously developed by Research.com, one of the leading platforms for science research across all major academic disciplines. Since 2014, Research.com has provided the scientific community with trusted data and rigorous analyses of scientific contributions, supporting scholars and professionals in identifying impactful research venues.

The ranking methodology is founded on a unique bibliometric score, purpose-built by Research.com to accurately reflect the influence of each conference. This score is computed by analyzing both the estimated h-index and the number of leading scientists who have actively participated in the conference over the past three years. By synthesizing these factors, the ranking offers a robust indicator of each conference’s academic impact and its significance within the Computer Science research community.

For the 2024 edition, Impact Score values have been gathered as of 2024-11-27, ensuring that the information presented is both current and highly relevant. The evaluation process for this ranking involved a thorough examination of more than 2,742 conferences. These conferences were carefully selected following detailed scrutiny and a rigorous review of over 148,739 scientific documents published during the preceding three years by 13,184 leading and well-respected scientists specializing in Computer Science.

This exhaustive and systematic approach underscores the depth and reliability of the ranking, reflecting the expertise and analytical rigor of the Research.com team. Readers interested in learning more about the precise methodology used for computing the ranking scores are encouraged to consult 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 Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Daniël Paulusma (9 papers) published 1 paper at the last edition, 1 less than at the previous edition,
  • Rolf Niedermeier (8 papers) published 2 papers at the last edition,
  • Petr A. Golovach (7 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Krishnendu Chatterjee (7 papers) published 2 papers at the last edition,
  • Vikraman Arvind (6 papers) published 1 paper at the last edition, 1 less than at the previous 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 Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Paris Diderot University (22 papers) published 4 papers at the last edition, 2 less than at the previous edition,
  • University of Warsaw (22 papers) published 4 papers at the last edition, 1 more than at the previous edition,
  • RWTH Aachen University (21 papers) published 3 papers at the last edition, 1 more than at the previous edition,
  • University of Oxford (20 papers) published 4 papers at the last edition, 3 more than at the previous edition,
  • Institute of Mathematical Sciences, Chennai (17 papers) published 3 papers at the last 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 2016 edition, 7.07% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 28.26% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing at the conference. Another 15.22% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 26.09% of all publications and 30.43% 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.
