Overview

The scientific conference ranking presented on this page provides a comprehensive evaluation of leading conferences in the field of Engineering and Technology. This ranking has been meticulously developed by Research.com, a recognized authority in science research that has been supplying reliable and trusted data on scientific contributions across all principal disciplines—including Engineering and Technology—since 2014.

The rank positions are established using a distinctive bibliometric score, uniquely formulated by Research.com, which incorporates both the estimated h-index of conference publications and the number of leading scientists who have participated in each conference during the preceding three years. This rigorous methodology ensures a multidimensional assessment of both the academic impact and the community engagement of each conference.

The current ranking reflects Impact Score values collected as of 2024-11-27. The evaluation process was highly selective: more than 2262 conferences were scrutinized through a thorough process involving detailed inspection of over 26934 scientific documents published within the last three years by an expert cohort of 9385 leading and well-respected scientists specializing in Engineering and Technology.

This extensive and sophisticated analysis underscores the credibility and authority of the conference rankings featured here. For an in-depth description of the methodology used to compute the ranking scores, please refer to 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 International Conference on Infrared, Millimeter, and Terahertz Waves (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Lianhe Li (9 papers) published 9 papers at the last edition,
  • Edmund H. Linfield (9 papers) published 9 papers at the last edition,
  • Daniel M. Mittleman (8 papers) published 8 papers at the last edition,
  • Manfred Thumm (7 papers) published 7 papers at the last edition,
  • Enrique Castro-Camus (7 papers) published 7 papers 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 International Conference on Infrared, Millimeter, and Terahertz Waves (based on the number of publications) are:

  • University of Electronic Science and Technology of China (15 papers) published 15 papers at the last edition,
  • National Institute of Information and Communications Technology (13 papers) published 13 papers at the last edition,
  • Russian Academy of Sciences (12 papers) published 12 papers at the last edition,
  • Centre national de la recherche scientifique (12 papers) published 12 papers at the last edition,
  • University of Leeds (11 papers) published 11 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, 6.89% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 26.53% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing at the conference. Another 14.29% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 25.51% of all publications and 33.67% 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 Electronics and Electrical Engineering opens doors to various interdisciplinary career paths.
