This ranking presents a comprehensive list of scientific conferences within the field of Computer Science. Compiled by Research.com—a recognized authority in science research and data curation since 2014—the ranking embodies a rigorous and scholarly approach to evaluating scientific impact. Research.com is renowned for offering trusted data on scientific contributions across all major fields, notably advancing the field of Computer Science with reliable and insightful evaluations.
The position of each conference within the ranking is determined by a proprietary bibliometric score developed by Research.com. This score is calculated by combining the estimated h-index of the conference with the number of leading scientists who have contributed to the conference during the three most recent years. By leveraging these robust indicators, the ranking provides an authoritative measure of each conference’s scientific influence within the academic community.
The Impact Score values featured in this ranking were meticulously gathered on 2024-11-27. To ensure precision and credibility, the evaluation process involved a thorough examination of over 2,742 conferences. This selection was guided by a detailed inspection and rigorous analysis of more than 148,739 scientific documents published in the last three years, representing the work of 13,184 distinguished scientists in Computer Science.
This disciplined methodology underlines the complexity and expertise underpinning the ranking system, setting a new standard for the evaluation of scientific conferences. For a more comprehensive explanation of the methodology and the procedures for computing the ranking scores, please refer to our Methodology Page.
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 Mobile Ad-hoc and Sensor Networks (based on the number of publications) are:
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 Mobile Ad-hoc and Sensor Networks (based on the number of publications) are:
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.
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 2018 edition, 41.67% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 47.62% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing at the conference. Another 4.76% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 23.81% of all publications and 23.81% were from other institutions.
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.
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.
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:
The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.
Pursuing a degree in Computer Science opens up various related fields that complement and expand career opportunities. Many students explore an accelerated psychology bachelor's degree online to integrate knowledge of human behavior with technology, enhancing fields like user experience design and AI development.
For those interested in affordability, an online degree psychology can provide foundational insights that benefit tech roles focused on human-computer interaction and cognitive science applications.
Careers in entertainment technology are also growing, with many students opting for a video game development degree to merge creativity with programming skills. This pathway is ideal for those looking to enter the fast-paced gaming industry.
Security remains a critical concern in computing. An online cyber security degree offers students in-depth knowledge to protect data and systems, a vital area within Computer Science that is continually evolving.
