Abstract :
I am pleased to inform all readers about the first appearance of IEEE Industrial Electronics Magazine (IEM) in the Journal Citation Report. Among 245 journals, our magazine is in 60th place in the electrical and electronics engineering category with a very high impact factor of 1.75 (the fourth highest impact factor among all IEEE magazines). This year marks the first time that IEM has appeared in the ISI Master Journal List. I would like to thank the past Editor-in-Chief Marco Liserre and all of the associate editors whose efforts helped build the high professional position of IEM.
