As you may know, I’m a columnist<\/a> for IEEE Internet Computing<\/a> (IC), and I’m also on their editorial board<\/a>. Our annual board meeting is coming up, so to help with planning, we’ve issued a call for special issue proposals<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The topics that typically come up in this blog and others it connects to are pretty much all fair game as special issue topics: REST and the programmatic web, service definition languages, scalability issues, intermediation, tools, reuse, development languages, back-end integration, etc. Putting together a special issue doesn’t take a lot of work, either. It requires you to find 3-4 authors each willing to contribute an article, reviewers to review those articles (and IC can help with that), and a couple others to work with you as editors. As editors you also have to write a brief introduction for the special issue. I’ve done a few special issues over the years and if you enlist the right authors, it’s a lot less work than you might think.<\/p>\n

As far as technical magazines go, IC is typically one of the most cited, usually second only to IEEE Software, as measured by independent firms. I think one reason for this is that it has a nice balance of industry and academic articles, so its pages provide information relevant to both the practitioner and the researcher.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
