Understand the Editorial Benefits of Publishing with IEEE

IEEE is by far the most-cited publisher in new patents, according to recent studies by 1790 Analytics LLC. IEEE journals and conference proceedings received more than 96,000 patent citations - more than 4 times the number of citations of any other publisher.  

IEEE Publishing connects brilliant minds like yours with other leading voices in technology specialties. Peer review, CrossRef and other tools help manage your workflow and make it easy to collaborate, reference, and deliver your writing to readers and researchers.

The peer review process is designed to enhance the quality of every article submitted to and published by IEEE.

The peer review process benefits the author, editor, and the reader. Journal, magazine, and conference papers undergo a thorough peer review process before acceptance for publication or presentation, ensuring only the highest quality information is published or presented at conferences. All IEEE books are peer-reviewed prior to publication as well. The author benefits from the feedback received, while the peer reviewer is able to further develop his or her own skills. The reader or conference attendee is assured the research published is strong and credible.

As a member of CrossRef, the IEEE is proud to include outbound reference links to other publisher content registered in the CrossRef system. CrossRef links appear in IEEE journal and magazine article reference lists in AbstractPlus records. Selecting the CrossRef link directs you to the publisher's destination Web address via a unique and persistent Digital Object Identifier (DOI). Access to content in the destination publisher's site depends on your subscription rights.

IEEE also participates in the CrossRef Search Pilot with other leading publishers. Google has indexed the full text of scholarly documents on the publishers' websites through a CrossRef gateway. This effort focuses users’ searches and reduces the noise produced by general web searches. Access to articles is determined by each publisher and your institution's subscriptions.
