Proceedings Scholar Metrics: H Index of proceedings on Computer Science, Electrical & Electronic Engineering, and Communications according to Google

📝 Abstract

The objective of this report is to present a list of proceedings (conferences, workshops, symposia, meetings) in the areas of Computer Science, Electrical & Electronic Engineering, and Communications covered by Google Scholar Metrics and ranked according to their h-index. Google Scholar Metrics only displays publications that have published at least 100 papers and have received at least one citation in the last five years (2010-2014). The searches were conducted between the 8th and 10th of December, 2015. A total of 1501 proceedings have been identified

INTRODUCTION

PROCEEDINGS SCHOLAR METRICS is a ranking that displays proceedings (conferences, workshops, symposia, meetings) indexed in Google Scholar Metrics (GSM) on the areas of Computer Science, Electrical & Electronic Engineering, and Communications for the period 2010-2014.

It is a well-known fact that conference proceedings play a major role as a means of scientific communication in all areas concerning Computer Engineering, Electronics, and Communications. The rapid rate at which knowledge is generated in these fields required the creation of a more dynamic system to communicate and publish research results. Conferences have historically fulfilled this role.

Therefore, it is not surprising that these publications take up an important place in researchers’ curriculum and that it is an object of special consideration in researchers’ performance evaluation programmes.

The various databases that have been traditionally used for evaluative purposes (Web of Science, Scopus) cover these types of publications with varying degrees of exhaustiveness, but never optimally. In fact, this has been one of the reasons why there have already been various attempts at creating classifications that identify and rank these types of publications.

The creation of Google Scholar in 2004, an academic search engine dedicated to crawling the Web in search of scientific literature, revolutionized the world of scientific information search systems. Particularly, it had very positive effect on those disciplines where publication habits were not limited to publishing in scientific journals, i.e. Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical & Electronic Engineering, and Communications.

Publications in these disciplines, for which the Internet is the natural environment, are splendidly represented on the Web. That is why Google Scholar is especially useful in these fields.

The development of Google Scholar Metrics, launched on April 2012 with the goal of providing a ranking of scientific publications indexed on Google Scholar (journals, proceedings, repositories), provided that they had published at least 100 papers and received at least one citation in the last five years, has been a crucial step towards knowing the impact of conferences, which are so important in these areas.

In GSM, publications rankings are sorted by impact (h index) and they can be browsed by languages, each of these showing the 100 publications with the greatest impact. For publications written in English, this tool allows user to browse publications by subject categories and subcategories. Computer Science, Engineering and Communications can be found on the “Engineering & Computer Science Category”, which comprises 58 subcategories. For each of these subcategories, only the top 20 publications with a highest H Index are displayed. There are a total of 190 unique conference proceedings across these subcategories. Categories and subcategories are not available for the other
