Publications

Quality of Venues*: Conferences are usually considered more prestigious than journals in the Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) discipline [See reference here]. The top two conferences in this area are CHI and CSCW, published in Proceedings of the ACM on Human-Computer Interaction (PACMHCI). In the ICTD field, the top conferences are ICTD and COMPASS (DEV).
