This page presents a comprehensive ranking of scientific conferences in the field of Engineering and Technology, meticulously prepared by Research.com. As one of the leading platforms for science research data across all major academic disciplines, Research.com has been providing trusted insights into scientific contributions since 2014.
The ranking is based on a unique bibliometric score, specifically developed by Research.com, which integrates two key factors: the estimated h-index and the number of leading scientists associated with each conference over the past three years. This robust approach ensures that the ranking accurately reflects the scientific influence and reputation of each conference.
The Impact Score values featured in this ranking were collected as of 2024-11-27, guaranteeing currency and reliability of the presented data. The evaluation process was both exhaustive and rigorous—over 2,262 conferences were examined, following a detailed inspection of more than 26,934 scientific documents published within the last three years. Contributions from 9,385 distinguished scientists in the domain of Engineering and Technology were taken into account to ensure the comprehensiveness of the analysis.
For further details regarding the methodology and the calculation of the ranking scores, interested readers are encouraged to consult our Methodology Page, where the complete evaluation process is described in depth.
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 ACM SIGIR Conference on Research and Development in Information Retrieval (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 International ACM SIGIR Conference on Research and Development in Information Retrieval (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 2021 edition, 5.21% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 23.56% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing at the conference. Another 19.37% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 15.45% of all publications and 41.62% 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.
Exploring Computer Science in the USA opens doors to diverse fields often supported by advanced degrees. For instance, pursuing a masters in data analytics equips students with vital skills for handling big data and driving business decisions, which is highly sought-after across industries.
For those interested in deeper specialization, an online doctorate data science can provide cutting-edge research opportunities and prepare professionals for leadership roles in academia or industry.
Additionally, interdisciplinary fields like bioinformatics blend computer science with biology. Careers with a bioinformatics degree offer unique prospects in healthcare and genetics, making it an exciting pathway for tech-savvy learners passionate about life sciences.
Online healthcare programs are also becoming more prevalent, allowing students to gain medical qualifications remotely. Exploring online healthcare programs can broaden your understanding of health technology and informatics, which increasingly intersect with computing.
These related degrees and career pathways highlight the flexible and expanding opportunities available for tech professionals beyond traditional computer science roles.
