Overview

The scientific conference ranking presented on this page showcases the most prominent events within the field of Computer Science. Compiled by Research.com, a leading platform recognized for its authoritative coverage and trusted data on scientific research contributions since 2014, this ranking is designed to provide an objective evaluation of conference impact and prestige.

The position of each conference in the ranking is determined using a unique bibliometric score developed by Research.com. This score is calculated based on two key factors: the estimated h-index of the conference, and the number of leading scientists who have contributed to the conference during the three most recent years. As a result, the ranking offers a comprehensive perspective that reflects both the quality and influence of conferences in the global Computer Science research community.

For this edition, the Impact Score values were collected on 2024-11-27. The ranking is the outcome of an extensive and meticulous process whereby more than 2,742 scientific conferences were examined. These conferences were shortlisted following a rigorous evaluation of over 148,739 scientific documents published in the three-year period by 13,184 of the most recognized and respected scientists in Computer Science. This robust approach ensures that only the most impactful and representative conferences are included and appropriately ranked.

To learn more about the comprehensive methodology and the precise calculation of the bibliometric scores underpinning this ranking, please visit our Methodology Page. This resource provides in-depth information on the analytical procedures and selection criteria employed in establishing the ranking.

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 Applied Cryptography and Network Security (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Jianying Zhou (9 papers) published 3 papers at the last edition, 2 more than at the previous edition,
  • David Pointcheval (7 papers) published 1 paper at the last edition,
  • Mark Manulis (7 papers) published 2 papers at the last edition,
  • Goichiro Hanaoka (6 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Kazuki Yoneyama (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 Applied Cryptography and Network Security (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Chinese Academy of Sciences (16 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Technische Universität Darmstadt (15 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Ruhr University Bochum (12 papers) published 1 paper at the last edition the same number as at the previous edition,
  • Institute for Infocomm Research Singapore (12 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • École Normale Supérieure (11 papers) published 1 paper 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, 2.56% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 15.79% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing at the conference. Another 5.26% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 42.11% of all publications and 36.84% 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

Exploring online degrees in computer science opens doors to diverse career pathways, each with its unique demands and opportunities. One of the main considerations for many students is the cost of computer science degree. Affordable programs make it easier to access quality education without incurring overwhelming debt, especially important for those balancing work or family responsibilities.

Veterans interested in technology can find tailored options through the best online cybersecurity degree programs for veterans. These programs acknowledge military experience and often offer flexible pathways to integrate veterans into high-demand cybersecurity roles.
