Journal Guide

Journal of Cloud Computing: Advances, Systems and Applications (JoCCASA) is a peer-reviewed open access journal published under the brand SpringerOpen. It publishes research spanning all aspects of Cloud Computing. Principally focused on core elements, including Cloud applications, Cloud systems and the advances that will lead to the Clouds of the future, the journal will also present review and survey papers that offer up new insights, and lay the foundations for further exploratory and experimental work.

The journal disseminates research that imparts advanced theoretical grounding and practical application of Clouds and related systems, as enabled by combinations of internet-based software, development stacks and database availability, and virtualized hardware for storing, processing, analysis and visualizing data. Coverage will examine Clouds alongside such other paradigms as Peer to Peer (P2P) computing, Cluster computing and Grid computing. Coverage extends to issues of management, governance, trust and privacy, and interoperability of Clouds.

Journal of Enterprise Information Management publishes high quality articles of significant intellectual interest and commercial relevance to managers, consultants, academics and students operating within an information intense business driven enterprise.

The Journal of Grid Computing explores an emerging technology that enables large-scale resource sharing problem solving within distributed, loosely coordinated groups sometimes termed 'virtual organizations'. Coverage includes protocols, security, scaling and more. Although the advantages of this technology for classes of applications have been acknowledged, research in a variety of disciplines is needed to broaden the applicability and scope of the current body of knowledge. This journal fills the need, covering such topics as protocols, middleware, and services, security, discovery, sharing, scaling, and more. Discussion extends to advanced technologies for collaborative work, information sharing and problem solving.

The Journal of Heuristics provides a forum for advancing the state-of-the-art in the theory and practical application of techniques for solving problems approximately that cannot be solved exactly. It fosters the development, understanding, and practical use of heuristic solution techniques for solving business, engineering, and societal problems. It considers the importance of theoretical, empirical, and experimental work related to the development of heuristics. The journal presents practical applications, theoretical developments, decision analysis models that consider issues of rational decision making with limited information, artificial intelligence-based heuristics applied to a wide variety of problems, learning paradigms, and computational experimentation. Officially cited as: J Heuristics
