Where should this paper go?
Paste your abstract. You get up to ten journals and conferences that publish work like yours, each with a reason, its citation measures and whether it is open access.
Your abstract is processed within the EU to find its topics and is not stored. Privacy Policy · Terms.
Picked a venue? Before you submit, DeskReady checks the paper against itself: every number against the tables, claims against the results, figures against their captions, references against the databases. The first check is free.
Check your paperHow it works
The finder reads your abstract and works out which research topics it belongs to and what kind of paper it is: a trial, a new method, a survey, an experiment. It then looks up the journals and conferences that published most on those topics in the last three years, with their citation measures, and chooses the ones that fit your paper, with a short reason for each. It only suggests venues that really publish on your topics; it does not invent any.
A good match means work like yours appears there, not that your paper will be accepted. Read each venue's scope and author guidelines, look at a few recent issues, and ask colleagues. To compare the venues, see how venues are ranked, or browse journals and conferences by field.
Questions
How does it choose venues?
It works out which research topics your abstract is about, finds the journals and conferences that published most on those topics in the last three years, and then chooses the ones that fit your paper best, considering your discipline and the kind of paper, with a short reason for each.
Is my abstract stored?
No. The abstract is processed in the EU to produce the suggestions and is neither stored nor logged. The bibliographic lookups only see the topics, not your text.
Does it work outside computer science?
Yes. It covers every field indexed in open bibliographic data: medicine, the life sciences, chemistry, physics, engineering, mathematics, economics, the social sciences, education, the humanities and more.
Can it tell me whether my paper will be accepted?
No. It suggests where work like yours is published. Read each venue's scope and author guidelines before you submit, and ask colleagues in your field.
