Research Assessment

Trying to get my head around what the best venues for publication would be.
ArnetMiner has a ranked list of conferences and journals.

This is the closest I could get to an RAE definition of how publications are assessed,

Section 2: Generic statement on criteria and working methods

"Assessment process

...

19. This is an expert review exercise. Sub-panel members will exercise their knowledge, judgement and expertise to reach a collective view on the quality profile of research described in each submission, that is the proportion of work in each submission that is judged to reach each of five quality levels from 4* to Unclassified (see Annex 1). The definition of each level relies on a conception of quality (world-leading) which is the absolute standard of quality in each UOA. Each submission will be assessed against absolute standards and will not be ranked against other submissions."
