IEEE Access- Impact Score, Overall Ranking, h-index, SJR, Rating, Publisher, ISSN, and Other Important Metrics

Aim and Scope

IEEE Access is a multidisciplinary, open access (OA), applications-oriented, all-electronic archival journal that continuously presents the results of original research or development across all of IEEE's fields of interest.

IEEE Access will publish articles that are of high interest to readers, original, technically correct, and clearly presented. Supported by article processing charges (APC), its hallmarks are a rapid peer review and publication process with open access to all readers. Unlike IEEE's traditional journals, reviews are "binary", in that reviewers will either Accept or Reject an article in the form it is submitted in order to achieve rapid turnaround.

Scope:

• Multidisciplinary topics, or applications-oriented articles that do not fit within the scope of IEEE's traditional journals.
• Applied engineering articles discussing new experiments or measurement techniques, interesting solutions to engineering, including negative results.
• Development of new or improved fabrication or manufacturing techniques.
• Traditional novel research articles.
• Reviews or surveys of new or evolving fields aimed at increasing others’ understanding of these emerging topics.

About IEEE Access

IEEE Access is a journal covering the technologies/fields/categories related to Computer Science (miscellaneous) (Q1); Engineering (miscellaneous) (Q1); Materials Science (miscellaneous) (Q1). It is published by Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.. The overall rank of IEEE Access is 4581. According to SCImago Journal Rank (SJR), this journal is ranked 0.927. SCImago Journal Rank is an indicator, which measures the scientific influence of journals. It considers the number of citations received by a journal and the importance of the journals from where these citations come. SJR acts as an alternative to the Journal Impact Factor (or an average number of citations received in last 2 years). This journal has an h-index of 158. The best quartile for this journal is Q1.

The ISSN of IEEE Access journal is 21693536. An International Standard Serial Number (ISSN) is a unique code of 8 digits. It is used for the recognition of journals, newspapers, periodicals, and magazines in all kind of forms, be it print-media or electronic. IEEE Access is cited by a total of 178284 articles during the last 3 years (Preceding 2021).

IEEE Access Impact Score 2021-2022

The impact score (IS) 2021 of IEEE Access is 4.34, which is computed in 2022 as per its definition. IEEE Access IS is decreased by a factor of 0.14 and approximate percentage change is -3.13% when compared to preceding year 2020, which shows a falling trend. The impact score (IS), also denoted as Journal impact score (JIS), of an academic journal is a measure of the yearly average number of citations to recent articles published in that journal. It is based on Scopus data.

IEEE Access Impact Score 2022 Prediction

IS 2021 of IEEE Access is 4.34. If the same downward trend persists, impact score may fall in 2022 as well.

IEEE Access h-index

 

IEEE Access has an h-index of 158. It means 158 articles of this journal have more than 158 number of citations. The h-index is a way of measuring the productivity and citation impact of the publications. The h-index is defined as the maximum value of h such that the given journal/author has published h papers that have each been cited at least h number of times.

IEEE Access ISSN

The ISSN of IEEE Access is 21693536. ISSN stands for International Standard Serial Number.

An ISSN is a unique code of 8 digits. It is used for the recognition of journals, newspapers, periodicals, and magazines in all kind of forms, be it print-media or electronic.

IEEE Access Rank and SCImago Journal Rank (SJR)

Abbreviation

The IS0 4 standard abbreviation of IEEE Access is IEEE Access. This abbreviation ('IEEE Access') is well recommended and approved for the purpose of indexing, abstraction, referencing and citing goals. It meets all the essential criteria of ISO 4 standard.

ISO 4 (International Organization for Standardization 4) is an international standard that defines a uniform and consistent system for abbreviating serial publication titles and journals.

How to publish in IEEE Access

If your research field is/are related to Computer Science (miscellaneous) (Q1); Engineering (miscellaneous) (Q1); Materials Science (miscellaneous) (Q1), then please visit the official website of this journal.

Acceptance Rate

IEEE Access has a typical acceptance rate of about 30%, which is comparable to other IEEE journals.

The acceptance rate/percentage of any academic journal/conference depends upon many parameters. Some of the critical parameters are listed below.

• The demand or interest of researchers/scientists in publishing in a specific Journal/Conference.
• Peer review complexity and timeline.
• The mix of unsolicited and invited submissions.
• The time it takes from manuscript submission to final publication.
• And Many More.

It is essential to understand that the acceptance rate/rejection rate of papers varies among journals. Some Journals considers all the manuscripts submissions as a basis of acceptance rate computation. On the other hand, few consider the only manuscripts sent for peer review or few even not bother about the accurate maintenance of total submissions. Hence, it can provide a rough estimation only.

The best way to find out the acceptance rate is to reach out to the associated editor or to check the official website of the Journal/Conference.
