ConferenceRank

ConferenceRank is a unified platform for discovering, evaluating, and tracking computer science conference and journal venues. It aggregates public ranking and bibliometric data into an accessible, interactive interface backed by programmatic APIs.
Key Features
- Conference & Journal Rankings — Complete CORE / ICORE rankings (A*, A, B, C) with historical tier tracking, side-by-side with SCImago Journal Rank (SJR) quartiles (Q1–Q4), H-index, and FoR discipline categories.
- Venue & Journal Suggester — Abstract-matching engine using TF-IDF and discipline lexicons to recommend stretch, target, and safe venues for an upcoming paper.
- Deadlines & Watchlist — Submission countdowns normalized to Anywhere on Earth (AoE), with 1-click Google Calendar sync,
.icsexport, and zero-login local browser watchlists. - Acceptance Rate Trends — Decades of acceptance statistics (submitted, accepted, rates) for leading venues across systems, AI/ML, security, databases, theory, and graphics.
