Proceedings of the IEEE is the leading journal to provide in-depth review, survey, and tutorial coverage of the technical developments in electronics, electrical and computer engineering, and computer science. Consistently ranked as one of the top journals by Impact Factor, Article Influence Score and more, the journal serves as a trusted resource for engineers around the world.

The Proceedings publishes approximately ten Special Issues and two regular paper issues per year.

Special Issues are led by distinguished Guest Editor teams and contain articles, typically surveys, reviews or tutorials, from leading experts in the technology area being covered. They serve as a guide to the state-of-the-art and are highly valued by the core research community, as well as specialists in other areas, looking to quickly come up to speed on the latest and more promising advances in areas outside of their own expertise.
Regular Issues consist of three to four papers on more focused topics, giving readers background and insight into emerging areas.
Papers published in the Proceedings are usually reviews, surveys, or tutorials.

Review or survey papers that have a common goal to critically examine a technology, highlighting its pros and cons, issues, ramifications, applications, and potential as well as describing its future technological prospects. Surveys should provide a comprehensive coverage of the entire technology from its inception, while reviews should cover in depth one or more of its most important aspects.
Tutorial papers explain a technology and may give practical information for implementing it. These papers are written for the purpose of informing non-specialist engineers about a particular technology.
