International Journal of Sensor Networks focuses on Wireless sensor network, Computer network, Wireless network, Key distribution in wireless sensor networks and Real-time computing. The Wireless sensor network works featured in International Journal of Sensor Networks incorporate elements from Distributed computing, Energy consumption, Node (networking), Algorithm and Efficient energy use. Most of the works presented in International Journal of Sensor Networks deals with Distributed computing but it intersects with the subject of Cluster analysis.
The studies on Computer network discussed can also contribute to research in the domains of Wireless and Wireless ad hoc network. The Wireless ad hoc network study featured in International Journal of Sensor Networks draws connections with the study of Mobile ad hoc network. It addresses concerns in Wireless network which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Computer security, Distributed algorithm, Sensor array and Embedded system.
International Journal of Sensor Networks aims to address concerns in Key distribution in wireless sensor networks, specifically in the areas of Mobile wireless sensor network, Sensor node, Visual sensor network and Brooks–Iyengar algorithm. While International Journal of Sensor Networks focused on Wireless Routing Protocol, it was also able to explore topics like Link-state routing protocol and Dynamic Source Routing. The Dynamic Source Routing study featured in the journal draws parallels with the field of Static routing.
The journal publications are organized to address concerns in the fields of Wireless sensor network, Wireless network, Computer network, Key distribution in wireless sensor networks and Efficient energy use. The most cited articles explore topics in Wireless sensor network which can be helpful for research in disciplines like Distributed computing, Energy consumption, Real-time computing, Sensor array and Embedded system. While work presented in the published articles provide substantial information on Wireless network, it also covers topics in Algorithm, Software deployment, Reliability (computer networking) and Network packet.
International Journal of Sensor Networks is organized to address concerns in the fields of Wireless sensor network, Computer network, Real-time computing, Artificial intelligence and Node (networking). In addition to Wireless sensor network research, International Journal of Sensor Networks aims to explore topics under Wireless, Energy (signal processing), Base station, Algorithm and Efficient energy use. The presented Real-time computing research provided insight into the related
Node (networking) research featured in it incorporates concerns from various other topics such as Kalman filter, Energy balanced and Routing protocol. The featured Routing protocol studies mainly concentrate on End-to-end delay but also cover areas of interest in Wireless network and Wireless ad hoc network. The presented research on Wireless network deals specifically with Relay but it also addresses topics in Physical layer.
A key indicator for each journal 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 in International Journal of Sensor Networks (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top authors publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top authors.
Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered
The top affiliations publishing in International Journal of Sensor Networks (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top affiliations publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top affiliations.
The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions in the journal edition to all articles published within that journal. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the journal.
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, 17.86% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 8.70% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 2.17% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 6.52% of all publications and 82.61% were from other institutions.
A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal 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 journal 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 in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, 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.
