Information for Authors

We invite tutorial articles that provide a new perspective on traditional topics or emerging/interdisciplinary areas. We do not host papers presenting previously unpublished results. The first step is to submit an article white paper, following the article white paper instructions; upon approval of the white paper, the second step is to submit a full article for review, following the full article submission instructions.

An article proposal consists of a short writeup (up to three pages single column 11 point font size). This should include information on authors (short bio), title, short description of the main topic and its timeliness, specific papers covered (references) and structure of the proposed full tutorial article.
