Abstracting and Indexing
Abstracting and Indexing, or
secondary publishers, are independent
third parties who are generally focused
on a specific discipline and
have independent editorial and business
terms.
Currently, we are working to
establish formal relationships,
allowing us to provide direction for
deeper coverage of IEEE
content, particularly for conference
proceedings. Each A&I
partner makes its own editorial decision
on what content it will
index. IEEE cannot guarantee that an
abstract or index entry will
be included in any database.
The IEEE Conference
Acquisition Program makes every
reasonable attempt to ensure
abstracts and index entries of content
accepted into the program
are included in databases provided by
independent abstracting and
indexing services, such as Elsevier's Ei
Compendex, IET's Inspec and
Thomson Reuters' Web of Science.
For Elseview’s EI
Compendex, abstracts and index entries
for article submission are
only considered for inclusion if (1)
your submission is available
as a full-text article in PDF format
(submissions converted from multimedia
formats such as Microsoft
PowerPoint do not constitute full-text
article); and (2) your
submission includes an author-submitted
abstract.
So that your authors may be
made aware of this process and comply
with the agreed-upon format, please make
this information available
to your authors via your website and
Call for Papers.
