Research in Dance Education aims to inform, stimulate and promote the development of research in dance education and is relevant to both learners and teachers. The desire to improve the quality and provision of dance education through lively and critical debate, and the dissemination of research findings is uppermost.The journal sets out to include contributors from a wide and diverse community of researchers. This extends to all aspects of dance in education, providing opportunities for both experienced and less experienced researchers. The journal encourages a wide range of research approaches and methods, in a forum for debate. An international audience will be attracted to the comparative study of dance teaching and learning, which the journal encompasses. Issues of pedagogy and subject content are addressed in relation to creating, performing and viewing dance in various contexts. The role and value of Dance as part of Arts Education and the connections with other Arts practitioners is also addressed.The research field of Research in Dance Education includes: all phases of education, pre-school to higher education and beyond; teaching and learning in dance, theory and practice; new technology; professional dance artists in education; learning in and through dance; aesthetic and artistic education; dance and the arts; dance and physical education; training dance teachers: initial teacher education, continuing professional development, dance degrees, and professional dance training; examination dance; dance therapy; special educational needs; community dance and youth dance; dance in society: gender, ethnicity, class, religion, economics; psychological issues: self esteem, motivation, body image, creativity, philosophy and the arts, and research methods and methodologies.The Perspectives section aims to re-publish significant work, which may no longer be available in print, to a wider readership. Articles are either of historical interest per se, or the issues addressed are so fundamental they remain relevant today. The section Editor welcomes suggestions of specific articles that you would like to see reproduced in future volumes of the journal. Recommendations should be accompanied by a photocopy of the article (with full reference) and a brief statement explaining why it is proposed for reprinting. The main purpose of the Dancelines section is to showcase outstanding student writing and to offer a supportive environment in which comparatively inexperienced student or recently graduated authors could gain confidence and develop their writing skills. One of the main intentions is to encourage scholarship and enthusiasm to write about dance and thus Dancelines is seen as acting as a seedbed for future writers. Both undergraduate and postgraduate work, normally between 3000 and 6000 words long is welcomed - the key criterion being that the work is publishable in an academic journal.Viewpoints is a section in which contributors can share opinions, comment critically on published papers, frame and explore topical issues, contribute short notes, questions, letters, or comments in response to material already printed in the journal. Brief notes of 500 words to considered pieces of up to 1,500 are invited.

Computer and Communications networks are key infrastructures of the information society with high socio-economic value as they contribute to the correct operations of many critical services (from healthcare to finance and transportation). Internet is the core of today's computer-communication infrastructures. This has transformed the Internet, from a robust network for data transfer between computers, to a global, content-rich, communication and information system where contents are increasingly generated by the users, and distributed according to human social relations. Next-generation network technologies, architectures and protocols are therefore required to overcome the limitations of the legacy Internet and add new capabilities and services. The future Internet should be ubiquitous, secure, resilient, and closer to human communication paradigms.Computer Communications is a peer-reviewed international journal that publishes high-quality scientific articles (both theory and practice) and survey papers covering all aspects of future computer communication networks (on all layers, except the physical layer), with a special attention to the evolution of the Internet architecture, protocols, services, and applications. Topics include, but are not limited to:Emerging technologies for next generation networkLAN/WAN/MANFuture Internet architecture, protocols and servicesContent- and service-centric architectureMobile and ubiquitous networksSelf organizing/autonomic networkingGreen networkingInternet content searchQoS and multimedia networkingOpportunistic networkingOn-line social networksInternet of thingsPublic safety communication networksNetwork applications (web, multimedia streaming, VoIP, gaming, etc.)Trust, security and privacy in computer and communication networksModeling, measurement and simulationComplex network modelsInternet socio-economic modelsExperimental test-beds and research platformsAlgorithmic aspects of communication networksNetwork scaling and limitsBenefits to authorsWe also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.

Journal of Popular Music Studies features work on popular music in its historical, cultural, aesthetic, and political registers. Its purview encompasses all genres of music that have been dubbed popular. The journal is also concerned with such issues as popular music's intersections with other arts, its relationships with old and new media, and its status as a field of research and critical writing. We welcome and encourage unconventional approaches (i.e. different from the standard scholarly essay) to these areas of inquiry. Each number of JPMS features book reviews, as well as occasional reviews of performances and recordings, and we regularly publish special issues co-ordinated by a guest editor or editors. We are currently inviting new submissions for future issues. Email submissions@thejpms.net for queries, and to submit manuscripts.

The neurobiology of learning and memory is entering a new interdisciplinary era. Advances in neuropsychology have identified regions of brain tissue that are critical for certain types of function. Electrophysiological techniques have revealed behavioral correlates of neuronal activity. Studies of synaptic plasticity suggest that some mechanisms of memory formation may resemble those of neural development. And molecular approaches have identified genes with patterns of expression that influence behavior. It is clear that future progress depends on interdisciplinary investigations. The current literature of learning and memory is large but fragmented. Until now, there has been no single journal devoted to this area of study and no dominant journal that demands attention by serious workers in the area, regardless of specialty. Learning & Memory provides a forum for these investigations in the form of research papers and review articles.

Providing a much-needed forum for interdisciplinary discussion, GLQ publishes scholarship, criticism, and commentary in areas as diverse as law, science studies, religion, political science, and literary studies.
