Call for papers for Human Computation – A new, interdisciplinary and open-access journal

[apologies for cross postings]
**************************
Dear all,

we would like to introduce to you Human Computation (HC) – an international and interdisciplinary, open-access journal for high-quality scholarly articles in all areas of human computation. We aim to bring together the human computation expertise of researchers and practitioners from a wide area of disciplines, one important field being Semantic Web (SW) technologies. Topics related to SW include – among others:

* Applications - novel or transformative applications using human computation
* Algorithms - wisdom of crowds, aggregation, reputation, crowdsourced analysis in the context of the Semantic Web
* Infrastructure - relevant networks, protocols, state space, and services related to human computation and the Semantic Web

For a full list of topics, please visit http://hcjournal.org. 

Top human computation researchers and practitioners from a variety of disciplines compose the journal’s editorial board and supporting advisory board, reflecting the journal’s credo to be truly interdisciplinary.

We are now accepting submissions.  The first issue will be published in Summer 2014 (open access and no author fees). Find more information on the submission guidelines and process on http://hcjournal.org. 

If you would like to keep up to date on our activities and calls, you can follow us on https://twitter.com/HCjnl, or join us on https://www.facebook.com/hcjournal and https://www.linkedin.com/groups/Human-Computation-interdisciplinary-journal-7488802 .

We look very much forward to your submissions and to talk to you about human computation!

With best regards, 

Pietro Michelucci, editor-in-chief
Elena Simperl, co-editor-in-chief
