Call for Special Issues

Guest Editors are cordially invited to submit proposal for special issues to the Editor-in-Chief Dr. Franz. I. S. Ko (franzjdcta@aicit.org). We invite guest editors to submit a proposal of 1-2 pages, Free Format, A4, MS-WORD. Supply complete address, fax/phone number and e-mail address of the guest editor. General Information about Special Issues JDCTA encourages the submission of collections of papers on topics of interest for the journal. Such Special Issues, introduced by an Editorial by the Guest Editor, will be published in issues containing in additional regular articles. Proposals from researchers significantly involved and recognized in their field will be considered. Members of the Editorial Board are especially welcome to guest edit a Special Issues/ Section. Special Issues may originate from a conference or workshop, or may offer a selection of papers devoted to a specialized topic. Thus authors may either be invited to contribute, as in the case of selected conference papers, or else may be alerted to the possibility to submit their papers by a Call for Papers, that may also be added to the journal's website. The Call for Papers must include a rationale for the Special Section, keywords for relevant topics, and a time schedule for the reviewing process, including a deadline for submission of papers. Proposals consisting of a draft of the Call for Papers, or a description of the scientific event on which the Special Issue is based, a time schedule and the mode of selection of papers, should be submitted to the JDCTA's Editor-in-Chief Dr. Franz. I. S. Ko: franzjdcta@aicit.org Responsibilities of the Guest Editor Once the Special Section is agreed upon, the Guest Editor (GE) will be in charge of inviting papers or receiving submissions, and of supervising the refereeing process. Authors should submit their Special Section papers by e-mail. Each paper must be refereed by at least two experts in the field, and must undergo revision steps when necessary.
