IMPACT FACTOR
Published every year by Thomson Reuters, the Journal Citations Report® containts relevant information about more than 8,000 journals around the world. The journal impact factor is a measure of the frequency with which the "average article" in a journal has been cited in a particular year. The impact factor will help you evaluate a journal's relative importance, especially when you compare it to others in the same field. For more bibliometric data and information on this and other journal titles click here.
Advances in Electrical and Computer Engineering papers are indexed in ISI Web of Knowledge® starting with issue 1/2007, the first Impact Factor being calculated for 2009.

JOURNAL PERFORMANCE METRICS AND CITATIONS
The number of citations an article has received is a good measure of how much impact the paper has had. The same applies to every issue of a journal, and for the journal itself. In order to provide accurate information on the number of citations received for every paper, we developed the "Cited By" section, available for every paper published after 2007. Also, we provide information about "Top 10 most cited papers in Web of Science®" and "Top 10 most cited papers in SCOPUS®". The total number of citations for the papers published each year are displayed bellow:

AIMS AND SCOPE
The principal aim of the journal is to bring together the latest research and development in various fields of science and technology such as computers science, artificial intelligence, pattern recognition, knowledge engineering, process control theory and applications, distributed systems and computer networks, electronics, communications, data transmission, software engineering, energy converters, control of electric drive systems, non-conventional energy conversion, sensors, transducers modeling and design, electro-physics, and nanotechnology.
PEER REVIEWING PROCESS
The submitted papers are subject of a blinded peer review process, in order to select for publishing the articles meeting the highest possible standards in electrical engineering and computer science.
In a first step the editor sends the received papers, without the name and affiliation of authors, to two experts in the field, by usign the on-line web management system. The electronic evaluation form used by reviewers contains a checklist in order to help referees to cover all aspects that can decide the publication. In the final section of the evaluation form, the reviewers must include observations and suggestions for improvement that are send to the authors, without the names of the reviewers.
All the reviewers of a paper remain anonymous to the authors and act independently before, during and after the evaluation process. They have different affiliation, are usually located in different towns/countries, and they are not aware of each other's identities. If the decisions of the two reviewers are not the same (accept / reject), the paper is send to a third reviewer.
If the suggestions of reviewers for improving the paper are rejected by the author, the Editor-in-chief editor invites the author to reply to reviewers with the respect of anonymity, using the on-line support interface. Observing the dialog, the Editor-in-chief editor may send the paper to additional reviewers.
The final decision for publication is done by the Editor-in-chief based on the scrutiny of reviewers and the scope of the journal.
The Editor-in-chief editor is responsible for the quality and selection of manuscripts chosen to be published, and the authors are always responsible for the content of each article.
