An analysis of an academic network reveals interesting insights into the prevailing research domains. The scientometrics analysis of an academic network mainly focuses to find the top authors and top journals using Bibliometircs. There are few work identify the top conferences to help the scholars to know about the current trends in computer science and helps them to participate in the conferences to extend their interactions with other researchers. In this paper, we aim to find the top conferences in the computer science research domain. We present a novel algorithm, ConferencRank by adapting the state of the art Pagerank algorithm to rank the conferences. We use the various features as weights to rank the conferences as well. The proposed algorithm has been applied on a very large data set of the DBLP and the results confirm that the proposed algorithm is helpful to find the top conferences and ranks the conferences in a proper manner. As a future work, we will like to extend this work by finding topicsensitive ranking of the conferences.
