Overview

This comprehensive ranking showcases the leading scientific conferences in the field of Computer Science, reflecting a meticulous evaluation process spearheaded by Research.com. As one of the most respected platforms in the scientific community, Research.com has provided authoritative data on research contributions across all major disciplines, including Computer Science, since 2014.

The ranking positions are determined by a unique bibliometric score, specifically developed by Research.com, which combines an estimated h-index with the number of leading scientists participating in each conference over the previous three years. This innovative scoring methodology ensures an objective assessment grounded in the academic impact and scientific excellence of each event.

All Impact Score values presented are based on data collected as of 2024-11-27, ensuring accuracy and relevance. The creation of this ranking involved a thorough review of more than 2,742 conferences, which were carefully selected through detailed analysis and rigorous examination of over 148,739 scientific documents published within the last three years by an esteemed group of 13,184 leading scientists in Computer Science.

Our detailed and transparent approach underscores the depth and complexity of the evaluation conducted by experts in the field. For a comprehensive explanation of the metrics and analysis that underpin this ranking, 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 Distributed Simulation and Real-Time Applications (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Azzedine Boukerche (18 papers) published 2 papers at the last edition the same number as at the previous edition,
  • Robson Eduardo De Grande (10 papers) published 2 papers at the last edition the same number as at the previous edition,
  • Stephen John Turner (8 papers) published 1 paper at the last edition the same number as at the previous edition,
  • Georgios Theodoropoulos (8 papers) published 1 paper at the last edition,
  • Wentong Cai (7 papers) published 1 paper at the last edition the same number as at the previous 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 Distributed Simulation and Real-Time Applications (based on the number of publications) are:

  • University of Ottawa (21 papers) published 2 papers at the last edition the same number as at the previous edition,
  • Nanyang Technological University (12 papers) published 2 papers at the last edition, 1 more than at the previous edition,
  • National University of Defense Technology (11 papers) published 6 papers at the last edition, 5 more than at the previous edition,
  • University of Salford (9 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • IBM (7 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 2015 edition, 10.71% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 48.00% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing at the conference. Another 8.00% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 24.00% of all publications and 20.00% 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.
