Scope and background
The Computer Journal is soliciting submissions based on an open call for
papers for a Special Issue on Discovery Science (DS), to provide a
leading forum for timely, in-depth presentation of recent advances in
algorithms, theories, and applications in the field of DS, which first
started as a national project for investigating the automated discovery
process with scientific approach in Japan involving more than 100
researchers in 1998.
This project gave birth to a series of international conferences with
the same name, which have been held successfully twelve times over a
dozen years. This special issue capitalises on the success of the DS
conferences, but also provides an open competition for all researchers
who wish to present relevant research results.
Domain of Interest
Papers are solicited concerning automatic scientific knowledge
discovery, data mining, machine learning, intelligent data analysis, theory of
learning, and their application to knowledge discovery.
The Computer Journal
The Computer Journal started in 1958 and is thus one of the
longest-established journals serving all branches of the academic
computer science community.
The Journal has an impact factor of 1.000 and is published on behalf of
The British Computer Society with more than 70,000 members and from the Oxford University Press.
It is currently published in Section A: Computer Science, Methods and
Tools (e.g., theory, algorithms, software engineering, data structures,
and complexity) and Section B: Networks and Computer Systems (e.g.,
architectures, mobile and wireless computing, network protocols,
security, reliability and performance optimisation). A third section, to
be launched in 2010, is: Section C: Computational Intelligence builds on
artificial intelligence, robotics and machine intelligence (e.g., data
mining, image processing, knowledge-based systems and the semantic web).
The special issue belongs to the Section C of the Computer Journal.
