This paper presents a current overview of the main productive and influential countries around the world in the computer science field. Research in the computer science field has experienced significant growth in recent years. This study develops a bibliometric overview of all journals that have been indexed in the Web of Science (WoS) database over the past 25 years (1995-2019), according to several bibliometric indicators in the seven categories of computer science research. The study shows that United States is the leading country in the computer science field. Other countries, such as the United Kingdom, China, Canada and Germany, also obtain high positions in the ranking. The average country that performs research in computer science is European, has English-speaking researchers, is highly developed and has a high income. However, there is a wide range of countries that perform research in computer science, including South American and Arabic countries, meaning that computer science traverses many countries and cultures.
