Call for Papers

The 2022 IEEE Industry Applications Society Annual Meeting will address the technical interests related to industrial applications of electrical energy. Note that while the 2022 IAS Annual Meeting and the 2022 Energy Conversion Congress and Exposition will be collocated in Detroit, Michigan, the technical programs at these conferences will be separate and will complement each other. Annual Meeting papers are solicited on subjects pertaining to the scope of the participating Technical Committees of the IEEE Industry Applications Society, as listed below. Your papers, draft manuscripts (NOT abstracts or digests alone) should be submitted using the submission links in one of the technical categories listed below. Proposals for Tutorials (which may range from 1-4 hours) should include a detailed outline as well as a list of presenters and their credentials.

Overview

The ranking presented on this page showcases a comprehensive list of scientific conferences in the field of Engineering and Technology, offering an authoritative reference for researchers and professionals seeking the highest-impact venues for scholarly exchange. This ranking has been meticulously prepared by Research.com, a leading website recognized for delivering trusted data on scientific contributions across all major disciplines, including Engineering and Technology, since 2014.

The position of each conference in this ranking is determined by a proprietary bibliometric score uniquely developed by Research.com. This score is calculated based on the estimated h-index, combined with the number of leading scientists who have participated in each conference over the previous three years. The data underpinning the Impact Score values was collected on 2024-11-27, ensuring that the insights provided are both current and relevant.

To ensure the accuracy and relevance of this ranking, the evaluation process involved a rigorous review of more than 2,262 conferences, which were carefully selected following an in-depth assessment of over 26,934 scientific documents published within the past three years. Contributions were assessed from a distinguished cohort of 9,385 leading and well-respected scientists active in the domain of Engineering and Technology. This exhaustive approach underscores the depth of research and the methodological complexity adopted by our expert team.

For a detailed explanation of the bibliometric methods and criteria employed in computing the conference ranking scores, we invite readers 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 IEEE Industry Applications Society Annual Meeting (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Thomas A. Lipo (125 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Wei-Jen Lee (88 papers) published 5 papers at the last edition, 1 less than at the previous edition,
  • Seung-Ki Sul (88 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Robert D. Lorenz (78 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Kashem M. Muttaqi (72 papers) published 17 papers at the last edition, 6 more 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 IEEE Industry Applications Society Annual Meeting (based on the number of publications) are:

  • University of Wisconsin-Madison (256 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Texas A&M University (128 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • University of Oviedo (116 papers) published 5 papers at the last edition, 1 less than at the previous edition,
  • University of Western Ontario (106 papers) published 1 paper at the last edition,
  • Centre national de la recherche scientifique (90 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 2020 edition, 4.02% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 13.95% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing at the conference. Another 10.70% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 18.60% of all publications and 56.74% 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.
