Overview

The ranking presented on this page highlights the leading scientific conferences in the field of Electronics and Electrical Engineering. This comprehensive list has been meticulously prepared by Research.com, a recognized authority and one of the leading platforms offering reliable insights and data on scientific research across all major disciplines, including Electronics and Electrical Engineering. Since 2014, Research.com has been dedicated to providing trusted metrics on scientific contributions and achievements.

The position of each conference in this ranking is determined by a distinctive bibliometric score, specifically developed by Research.com. This score is calculated using a combination of the estimated h-index and the number of top scientists who have participated in each conference over the previous three years. The Impact Score values featured here were compiled as of 2024-11-27, ensuring a current and relevant assessment.

To ensure a robust and reliable evaluation, the ranking process involved an exhaustive review of more than 2,204 conferences in the field. These conferences were selected following a meticulous and rigorous examination of over 95,378 scientific documents published during the last three years, contributed by 6,160 leading and highly respected scientists in Electronics and Electrical Engineering. This extensive analysis underscores the depth of research and the complex methodology employed by the experts at Research.com.

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 Hardware-Oriented Security and Trust (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Mark Tehranipoor (12 papers) published 2 papers at the last edition, 2 less than at the previous edition,
  • Domenic Forte (11 papers) published 2 papers at the last edition, 1 less than at the previous edition,
  • Ingrid Verbauwhede (10 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Yier Jin (10 papers) published 4 papers at the last edition, 2 more than at the previous edition,
  • Ken Mai (10 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 Hardware-Oriented Security and Trust (based on the number of publications) are:

  • University of Florida (21 papers) published 9 papers at the last edition, 3 more than at the previous edition,
  • Intel (16 papers) published 2 papers at the last edition, 1 more than at the previous edition,
  • Nanyang Technological University (13 papers) published 7 papers at the last edition, 4 more than at the previous edition,
  • Virginia Tech (13 papers) published 2 papers at the last edition, 2 less than at the previous edition,
  • Katholieke Universiteit Leuven (12 papers) absent 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 2019 edition, 0.00% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 53.06% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing at the conference. Another 4.08% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 16.33% of all publications and 26.53% 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.
