Visualization is an interdisciplinary imaging science devoted to making the invisible visible through the techniques of experimental visualization and computer-aided visualization. This official journal of the Visualization Society of Japan presents the latest visualization technology and its applications. It is published in full color in order to realize its mission of promoting a better understanding of complex phenomena. The journal consists of papers, such as short paper, review paper, regular paper, and report.
The Journal of Web Semantics is an interdisciplinary journal based on research and applications of various subject areas that contribute to the development of a knowledge-intensive and intelligent service Web. These areas include: knowledge technologies, ontology, agents, databases and the semantic grid, obviously disciplines like information retrieval, language technology, human-computer interaction and knowledge discovery are of major relevance as well. All aspects of the Semantic Web development are covered. The publication of large-scale experiments and their analysis is also encouraged to clearly illustrate scenarios and methods that introduce semantics into existing Web interfaces, contents and services. The journal emphasizes the publication of papers that combine theories, methods and experiments from different subject areas in order to deliver innovative semantic methods and applications.The Journal of Web Semantics addresses various prominent application areas including: e-business, e-community, knowledge management, e-learning, digital libraries and e-sciences.The Journal of Web Semantics features a multi-purpose web site, which can be found at: http://www.semanticwebjournal.org/. Readers are also encouraged to visit the Journal of Web Semantics blog, at http://journalofwebsemantics.blogspot.com/ for more information and related links.The Journal of Web Semantics includes, but is not limited to, the following major technology areas:• The Semantic Web• Knowledge Technologies• Ontology• Agents• Databases• Semantic Grid and Peer-to-Peer Technology• Information Retrieval• Language Technology• Human-Computer Interaction• Knowledge Discovery• Web StandardsMajor application areas that are covered by the Journal of Web Semantics are:• eBusiness• eCommunity• Knowledge Management• eLearning• Digital Libraries• eScienceEach of these areas is covered by an area editor who supports the editors-in-chief. Furthermore, area editors manage the review process for submitted papers in the respective areas.The Journal of Web Semantics publishes four types of papers:• Research papers: Research papers are judged by originality, technical depth and correctness, as well as interest to our target readership. Research papers are recommended to have 15 - 25 pages in double column format.• Survey papers: We rarely accept survey papers, and beyond a sheer enumeration of relevant methods and systems, we expect a substantial technical insight to be gained by a survey paper. Survey papers are recommended to have 15 - 25 pages in double column format. • Ontology papers: We publish community-oriented description of ontology papers, if they generate interests from real-world users and semantic Web experts. Ontology papers are recommended to have 6 - 8 pages in double column format. Interested authors may here find a detailed Call-for-Ontology papers• System papers: Widely adopted semantic systems and systems that generate a far above average amount of interest in the Semantic Web community, may be explained in systems papers. Systems papers are recommended to have 6 - 8 pages in double column format.Shorter or longer papers are allowable, if the objectives of a paper warrant deviating length. Descriptions that are either unnecessarily short or long will negatively impact chances of acceptance.
The Journal of the ACM (JACM) provides coverage of the most significant work going on in computer science, broadly construed. It is a peer-reviewed journal, published six times a year by ACM.We publish original research papers of lasting value in computer science. To be accepted, a paper must be judged to be truly outstanding in its field and to be of interest to a wide audience. We are particularly interested in work at the boundaries, both the boundaries of subdisciplines of computer science and the boundaries between computer science and other fields.
The Journal of the Association for Information Systems (JAIS), the flagship journal of the Association for Information Systems, publishes the highest quality scholarship in the field of information systems. It is inclusive in topics, level and unit of analysis, theory, method and philosophical and research approach, reflecting all aspects of Information Systems globally. The Journal promotes innovative, interesting and rigorously developed conceptual and empirical contributions and encourages theory based multi- or inter-disciplinary research.
JBCS is a formal quarterly publication of the Brazilian Computer Society. It is a peer-reviewed international journal which aims to serve as a forum to disseminate innovative research in all fields of computer science and related subjects. Theoretical, practical and experimental papers reporting original research contributions are welcome, as well as high quality survey papers. The journal is open to contributions in all computer science topics, computer systems development or in formal and theoretical aspects of computing, as the list of topics below is not exhaustive. Contributions will be considered for publication in JBCS if they have not been published previously and are not under consideration for publication elsewhere. Topics of interest for paper submissions include, but are not restricted to: computer architecture high-performance computing database management and information retrieval computational biology computer graphics data visualization image and video processing VLSI design, software-hardware codesign embedded systems software engineering geoinformatics human computer interaction artificial intelligence games, entertainment and virtual reality programming languages algorithms and theory of computing natural language processing computer networks and distributed systems robotics collaborative systems multimedia and hypermedia systems secure and fault-tolerant systems mobile and ubiquitous computin, g computers and applications (e.g. health, education, agriculture and music)
The Journal of the Optical Society of America A (JOSA A) is devoted to developments in any field of classical optics, image science, and vision. JOSA A includes original peer-reviewed papers on such topics as atmospheric optics, image processing, scattering and coherence theory, machine vision, statistical optics, diffraction and gratings, polarization, thin films, signal processing, color, physiological optics, clinical vision, and visual optics.
In the development of multimodal interfaces, this journal offers a standard reference for multidisciplinary work.
As implied by the word Interfaces rather than Interactions in the title, the journal seeks to illustrate verifiable realisations over purely theoretical musings. The journal focuses on multimodal interfaces developed with an emphasis on user-centric design. Thus, usability and architectural considerations are also key targets.
Kinetics and Catalysis (Kinetika i Kataliz) is the only Russian journal that currently publishes theoretical and experimental materials on homogeneous and heterogeneous kinetics and catalysis. Other topics addressed include the mechanism and kinetics of noncatalytic processes in gaseous, liquid, and solid phases, quantum chemical calculations in kinetics and catalysis, methods of investigating catalytic processes and catalysts, the chemistry of catalysts and adsorbent surfaces, the structure and physicochemical properties of catalysts, preparation and poisoning of catalysts, macrokinetics, and computer simulation in catalysis. The journal publishes information on scientific conferences held in the Commonwealth of Independent States, as well as surveys by leading researchers on contemporary problems in kinetics and catalysis. Kinetics and Catalysis was founded in 1960 by the Russian scientist Academician G.K. Boreskov, along with other outstanding specialists in kinetics and catalysis.
