SJR Q1
What the numbers say
More papers are appearing but individual citedness has dropped.
Field-weighted citation impact moved from 2.47 to 0.65. If you aim for high citedness, expect lower average visibility here than before. Output grew sharply while citation impact fell. Consider whether publishing more papers aligns with your goals for citation impact. Quantum Computing Algorithms and Architecture rose from 0.0% to 6.0% of what the journal runs. If your work is on quantum computing systems, this journal is publishing more of that material. Authors from CN went from 18.3% to 29.8%. If you collaborate with authors in China, you will find a larger representation among recent authors.
