The journal is organized to address concerns in the fields of Computer network, Vehicular ad hoc network, Wireless ad hoc network, Intelligent transportation system and Network packet. The journal holds forums on Computer network that merges themes from other disciplines such as Wireless and Dissemination. While Vehicular ad hoc network is the focus of it, it also provided insights into the studies of Computer security, Reliability (computer networking), Distributed computing and Dedicated short-range communications.
The main emphasis of Vehicular Communications is the subject of Computer security, focusing on Authentication. While it focused on Wireless ad hoc network, it was also able to explore topics like Overhead (computing) and Cluster analysis. The journal addresses concerns in Intelligent transportation system which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as IEEE 802.11p and Real-time computing.
Real-time computing research discussed connects with the study of CAN bus. In the journal, Transmission (telecommunications) and Throughput are investigated in conjunction with one another to address concerns in Network packet research. The journal is concerned with the study of Routing protocol and Routing (electronic design automation) in general.
Vehicular ad hoc network, Computer network, Computer security, Wireless ad hoc network and Intelligent transportation system are the main subjects of interest in the most cited publications. The published papers explore issues in Vehicular ad hoc network which can be linked to other research areas like Quality of service and Reliability (computer networking). Dissemination and Dedicated short-range communications are some topics wherein Computer network research discussed in the most cited papers has an impact.
Vehicular Communications focuses on Computer network, Vehicular ad hoc network, Wireless ad hoc network, Real-time computing and Network packet. While work presented in the journal provided substantial information on Computer network, it also covered topics in Transmission (telecommunications) and The Internet. Topics in Vehicular ad hoc network were tackled in line with various other fields like Intelligent transportation system, Reliability (computer networking), Authentication, Routing protocol and Reinforcement learning.
The journal links adjacent topics like Wireless ad hoc network with Cluster analysis. Real-time computing is the main point of discussion in the journal but it also connects with fields such as
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 Vehicular Communications (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 Vehicular Communications (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, 6.82% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 14.63% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 6.10% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 20.73% of all publications and 58.54% 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.
