Each
year, the Journal Citation Reports (JCR) from
Thomson ISI examine the impact of academic
journals by determining how often journals'
articles are cited by later research.
The 2007
study, released in June 2008, shows that IEEE
journals maintain a healthy and growing lead
in their field. The JCR ranks journals by
their impact factor, defined as the average number
of times articles published in a specific
journal in the previous two years were cited in a
particular year.
According to the JCR, IEEE publishes:
- 18 of the top 20 journals in Electrical
and Electronic Engineering
- 9 of the top 10 journals in
Telecommunications
- 6 of top 10 journals in Computer
Science, Hardware & Architecture
- 5 of top 20 journals in Computer
Science, Information Systems
- 8 of top 20 journals in Computer
Science, Software Engineering
- and high-ranking journals in several
additional fields of technology
According
to Thomson ISI, the JCR "presents quantifiable
statistical data that provides a systematic,
objective way to evaluate the world's leading
journals and their impact and influence in the
global research community."
