Every year, Clarivate gives impact factors for its Web of Science-indexed journals. Journals with an impact factor of less than 3 are considered low-impact factor journals. In this blog post, we list Computer Science journals having low impact factors. The Computer Science journals having impact factors of less than 3 and more than 1 are listed.
