This article outlines criteria you can use to determine if journals or conferences should be considered worthy of publishing your manuscripts or hosting your presentations. Your time and work are limited and valuable. Where you choose to showcase them is important to both you and to other professionals in your field. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
