Overview

This comprehensive ranking presents a carefully curated list of scientific conferences within the field of Engineering and Technology. Developed by Research.com, a leading authority in providing reliable data on scientific accomplishments and research contributions since 2014, the ranking is designed to serve as a trusted resource for the global academic community.

Each conference’s position in the ranking is determined using a unique bibliometric score constructed by Research.com. This score integrates both the estimated h-index and the number of distinguished scientists who have participated in the conference during the past three years, reflecting not only the impact but also the prestige of each event. The most recent Impact Score values included in this ranking were collected as of 2024-11-27.

The ranking process involved a rigorous and exhaustive evaluation of over 2,262 conferences, selected through a detailed investigation of more than 26,934 scientific documents published within the preceding three years. These documents represent the research output of 9,385 highly regarded experts and leading scientists in the field of Engineering and Technology. The criteria for inclusion ensures that only the most reputable conferences, demonstrating significant scientific influence and participation by top-tier researchers, are featured in this list.

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 Dependable Autonomic and Secure Computing (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Ahmed Al-Dubai (6 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Kun Yang (6 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Lu Liu (6 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Jianhua Ma (5 papers) published 1 paper at the last edition, 1 less than at the previous edition,
  • Rami Qahwaji (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 Dependable Autonomic and Secure Computing (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Liverpool John Moores University (21 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Shanghai University (13 papers) published 2 papers at the last edition, 5 less than at the previous edition,
  • Dalian University of Technology (11 papers) published 7 papers at the last edition, 6 more than at the previous edition,
  • University of Bedfordshire (11 papers) published 2 papers at the last edition,
  • University of Central Florida (10 papers) published 10 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, 16.16% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 15.06% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing at the conference. Another 9.04% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 18.07% of all publications and 57.83% 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.
