Overview

This ranking presents a comprehensive evaluation of scientific conferences in the field of Computer Science. Developed by Research.com, one of the leading platforms for science research across all major disciplines and a trusted provider of scientific data since 2014, the ranking aims to offer a reliable reference for the assessment of academic venues within Computer Science.

Conference positions in this ranking are determined using a unique bibliometric score, meticulously designed by the experts at Research.com. This score integrates both the estimated h-index and the number of leading scientists who have contributed to the conference over the preceding three years, providing a nuanced and robust metric to gauge scholarly impact.

The current edition of the ranking incorporates up-to-date Impact Score values, gathered as of 2024-11-27. The ranking process entailed the thorough examination of more than 2,742 conferences, following a detailed analysis of over 148,739 scientific documents published by 13,184 highly regarded scientists in the Computer Science domain over the past three years. Only conferences meeting the highest standards of academic excellence and influence were considered.

This rigorous approach underscores the commitment of Research.com to ensuring accuracy and reliability in conference evaluation, thus supporting informed decision-making for researchers, institutions, and stakeholders in the global scientific community.

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 European Dependable Computing Conference (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Johan Karlsson (7 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Jean-Charles Fabre (7 papers) published 1 paper at the last edition,
  • Alexander Romanovsky (6 papers) published 1 paper at the last edition,
  • Raul Barbosa (6 papers) published 1 paper at the last edition the same number as at the previous edition,
  • André van Hoorn (5 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 European Dependable Computing Conference (based on the number of publications) are:

  • University of Coimbra (14 papers) published 3 papers at the last edition, 2 less than at the previous edition,
  • Chalmers University of Technology (9 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Newcastle University (8 papers) published 1 paper at the last edition the same number as at the previous edition,
  • University of Stuttgart (5 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • University of Erlangen-Nuremberg (5 papers) published 1 paper at the last edition the same number as 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, 10.71% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 36.00% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing at the conference. Another 20.00% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 16.00% of all publications and 28.00% 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

For students interested in expanding their expertise beyond traditional computer science, several related fields offer promising online degree options. Pursuing a data analytics masters is a valuable step for those looking to harness large datasets and improve decision-making processes using advanced skills in statistics and programming.

For those committed to research and advanced study, an online PhD data science program provides opportunities to specialize deeply in machine learning, artificial intelligence, and big data technologies. These programs prepare graduates for academic positions, industry research roles, and leadership in data-driven innovation.

Another interdisciplinary pathway lies in bioinformatics, where computational methods are applied to biological data. Understanding what to do with a bioinformatics degree highlights careers in healthcare, pharmaceuticals, and genetics, blending biology with computing power.

Additionally, the healthcare industry increasingly integrates technology, and several online medical degrees offer flexible routes for students wanting to combine computing skills with medical knowledge, opening doors to innovative roles in medical informatics and health technology development.
