Call for Papers

The symposium seeks original algorithmic contributions for problems with relevant theoretical and/or practical applications. Papers with a strong emphasis on the theoretical analysis of algorithms should be submitted to Track A, while papers reporting on the results of extensive experimental evaluations and/or providing original contributions to the engineering of algorithms for practical applications should be submitted to Track B. Submissions that prove or explain known results in a much clearer, simpler or more elegant way than done before should be submitted to track S. There will be a Best Student Paper Award as well as a Best Paper Award, both sponsored by EATCS. In order for a paper to be considered for the Best Student Paper Award, all of its authors are required to be students.

Overview

This ranking presents a comprehensive evaluation of scientific conferences within the field of Computer Science, offering a reliable reference for researchers, academics, and institutional stakeholders. Developed by Research.com—a leading platform dedicated to science research across major fields and recognized for providing authoritative data on scientific contributions since 2014—this ranking highlights conferences distinguished by the influence and participation of top scholars.

The position of each conference in this ranking is determined using a unique bibliometric score formulated by Research.com. This score is meticulously computed based on two critical metrics: the estimated h-index of the conference and the number of leading scientists who have participated in the event during the previous three years. The Impact Score values reflected in this ranking were gathered on 2024-11-27, ensuring the representation of recent and relevant scientific activity.

The selection process for ranked conferences involved the detailed assessment and rigorous examination of over 2,742 conferences. Notably, this analysis incorporated insights from more than 148,739 scientific documents published in the past three years by 13,184 acclaimed and well-respected scientists specializing in Computer Science. This thorough approach underlines the depth and credibility of the ranking, ensuring that it captures the leading venues advancing the field.

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 Symposium on Algorithms (based on the number of publications) are:

  • María Patricia Fernández Cuevas (14 papers) published 4 papers at the last edition, 1 less than at the previous edition,
  • Monika Henzinger (10 papers) published 3 papers at the last edition, 1 more than at the previous edition,
  • Fedor V. Fomin (9 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Dan Halperin (9 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Kevin Buchin (9 papers) published 1 paper 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 Symposium on Algorithms (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Universidad Autónoma del Estado de Hidalgo (45 papers) published 11 papers at the last edition, 3 less than at the previous edition,
  • Max Planck Society (42 papers) published 3 papers at the last edition, 4 less than at the previous edition,
  • Tel Aviv University (39 papers) published 6 papers at the last edition, 4 more than at the previous edition,
  • Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (24 papers) published 4 papers at the last edition, 1 less than at the previous edition,
  • University of Bergen (22 papers) published 2 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 2017 edition, 24.79% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 35.16% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing at the conference. Another 10.99% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 19.78% of all publications and 34.07% 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.
