During the group meeting, the teacher mentioned some unfamiliar words, such as globecom (I thought it was globalcom at first), WCNC, etc. I didn't understand the meaning of these words at the time, and thought it might be some journals In the process of searching, I also found the words IEEE, EI, and SCI, so I sorted out these concepts. Please correct me if there is anything wrong

1. IEEE
1. What is IEEE
Instituteof Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) American Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers. The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) is an international association of electronic technology and information science engineers and one of the largest professional technical organizations in the world.
2. Scope
IEEE has more than 300 local chapters in more than 150 countries. IEEE is committed to the development and research of electrical, electronic, computer engineering and science-related fields. It has formulated many industry standards in the fields of space, computer, telecommunications, biomedicine, power and consumer electronics, and has now developed into a An international academic organization with great influence.
3. Publication content
As a prospective graduate student, I am most concerned about its journals, conferences and other publications.
IEEE still has a relatively large selection space for publishing papers. Many journals, conferences, letters and magazines have been published. Academic journals generally have journals, transactions, and letters in their names, which are the main ways to publish research articles. Letters is a letter, which publishes short research articles, generally 3 to 4 pages, and journal and transaction mainly publish long research articles. Another type that is different from journals, transactions, and letters is called magazines (technical magazines), which do not publish research articles, but mainly publish articles on popular science or applications, suitable for reading to understand the overall development of a certain technology or industry .
4. Periodical search
For specific journals and magazines, you can go to the IEEE official website to view
https://www.ieee.org/conferences/index.html
and click on the newspapers and periodicals you want to view. There are impact factors, feature factors, etc., and then some articles below
Two, EI
1. What is EI
EI is the abbreviation of The Engineering Index. EI enjoys a high reputation in the global academic, engineering, and information circles. It is an important search tool commonly recognized by the scientific and technological community. It mainly collects important literature in the field of engineering technology, including journals, conference literature, scientific reports, monographs, etc., and SCI, ISTP is collectively referred to as the three major international core journals.
EI journals refer to the periodicals indexed by EI. In the process of searching for information, I found that published EI papers may not necessarily be retrieved. The reason may be that EI papers have not been published publicly, the retrieval time has not yet arrived, article retrieval is affected by abstracts, and EI journals have been kicked out of the journal catalog Or purely missed.
2. Periodical search
How to search for periodicals indexed by EI on HowNet:
First, enter the official website of HowNet, click Publication Search 
How to click on the publication source navigation in turn, select the journal navigation, and
you can see the specific publication information on the right, and you can view the EI journals that suit you.
3. SCI
1. What is SCI
The full name of SCI is Scientific Citation Index, that is, "Science Citation Index", which is a citation index journal edited and published by the Institute of Scientific Information (ISI), so SCI is not a journal, and it can directly refer to core journals, but It is a retrieval tool, just like the professional academic version of Baidu Search (equivalent to Baidu Academic). Papers that enter the SCI journal are SCI papers.
2. Scope
SCI is an international search publication, including: natural science, biology, medicine, agriculture, technology and behavioral science, etc., mainly focusing on basic science.
3. Periodical search
Same as EI, you can find it through CNKI
