Systems Engineering aims to foster the development of research in Mathematical optimization, Systems engineering, Microeconomics, Econometrics and Operations research. Discussions in it are anchored in the subject of Mathematical optimization and the similar topic of Algorithm. Many of the studies tackled connect Systems engineering with a similar field of study like Process (engineering).
The Microeconomics study featured in Systems Engineering draws parallels with the field of Supply chain. The study on Econometrics presented is investigated in conjunction with research in Financial economics. The in-depth study on Financial economics also explores topics in the intersecting field of Stock market.
The most cited publications generally zeroe in on subjects such as Systems engineering, Operations research, Process (engineering), System of systems and Systems design. The works on Systems engineering tackled in the most cited articles bring together disciplines like Context (language use), Complex system, Systems architecture, Engineering design process and Flexibility (engineering). While work presented in the most cited publications provide substantial information on Systems design, it also covers topics in Identification (information), Mathematical optimization, Management science and Systems modeling.
Systems Engineering generally zeroes in on subjects such as Software engineering, Model-based systems engineering, Distributed computing, Systems design and Systems Modeling Language. While Software engineering is the focus of Systems Engineering, it also provided insights into the studies of Container (abstract data type), Requirement prioritization, Obsolescence and Software requirements. The work on Model-based systems engineering tackled in the journal brings together disciplines like Government, Modularity (networks), Software and Categorization.
Some problems in Distributed computing that were presented in it overlapped with concepts under Resilience (network), Dynamic programming, Order (exchange), Vertical integration and System of systems. The research on System of systems tackled can also make contributions to studies in the areas of Ontology (information science), Proposition, Ecology (disciplines), Degree (graph theory) and Product-service system. The studies on Systems design discussed can also contribute to research in the domains of State (computer science), Human–computer interaction, Analytics, Data science and Engineering design process.
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 Systems Engineering (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 Systems Engineering (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, 9.09% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 13.33% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 6.67% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 30.00% of all publications and 50.00% 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.
