THE COMPUTER GAMES JOURNAL
CALL FOR PAPERS VOLUME 4 EDITION 1
CALL OPENED: AUGUST 2014
CALL CLOSES: DECEMBER 2014
FINAL COPY AGREED: JANUARY 2015 PUBLICATION: MARCH 2015
Following the purchase of The Computer Games Journal title by Springer Science+Business Media we are pleased to announce a general call for papers for 2015 publication.
As this represents a new-start for The Computer Games Journal, authors have a singular opportunity to have their work appear quickly in a rated publication through a leading publishing house. All work published will be widely available across all relevant online research databases and will be co-distributed with leading academic publications, including Lecture Notes In Computer Science, going free in 2015 to the world’s leading research centres and beyond.
For the first Springer/Apress editions, Vol.4 Nos.1-4, we are seeking significant ground-breaking work which will set a trend for later editions, and perhaps also future special editions. The 2015 onwards editions of The Computer Games Journal will continue with the aims from the first tCGJ publication in early 2012: publishing work which is of good quality, interesting for a readership in research and in development, and which has something new to say to this mixed audience.
Expressions of interest, abstracts and full papers are invited to be submitted to editor@computergamesjournal.com. As has always been the case with the Computer Games Journal, all submissions will be acknowledged quickly and we will aim to respond in detail with feedback on reviews of full paper submissions within 2-3 weeks.
Topics may include, but are not limited to, programming, software engineering, design, music, artificial intelligence, advergames, marketing, business modelling, financing, artwork, simulation, narrative, socialisation, games as a creative industry, and, gender issues.
