OJ-ITS Special Issues

Do you want to develop a Special Issue in the IEEE Open Journal of Intelligent Transportation Systems?

We welcome proposals for Special Issues on the basis of conferences and workshops, around emerging topics or based on major research programs and projects. All contributions are submitted to the regular IEEE OJ ITS peer review process, managed by 2-3 experienced Guest Editors. A special issue will have at least 5 accepted papers. Each paper will be published directly after acceptance as a topic in

IEEE Xplore. The Guest Editors are invited to write a 1 page editorial after acceptance of 5 papers.

Papers in special issues based on conferences and workshops need to contain substantial novelty compared with the work already published in proceedings. A combination of an extended summary in the proceedings with full papers in an IEEE OJ ITS Special Issue is a good approach to achieve synergy between your conference or workshop with IEEE OJ ITS.

Proposals for special issues can be sent to the Editor in Chief Prof. Bart van Arem, and contain: {name, topic, guest editors, motivation, submission deadline and your approach to attract papers}.
