About Computer (Magazine)
Computer, the flagship publication of the IEEE Computer Society, publishes peer-reviewed articles written for and by computer researchers and practitioners representing the full spectrum of computing and information technology, from hardware to software and from emerging research to new applications. The aim is to provide more technical substance than trade magazines and more practical ideas than research journals.
Computer seeks to deliver useful information for all computing professionals and students, including computer scientists, engineers, and practitioners of all levels.
Computer publishes diverse types of editorial content. Our Cover Features, Computing Practices, Perspectives, and Research Features provide a strong mix of case studies, opinion pieces, and solutions to technical problems. Authors can submit manuscripts for publication as Computing Practices, Perspectives, or Research Features on any topic within
Computer‘s scope at any time.
Submission Guidelines
For author information and guidelines on submission criteria, please visit the
Computer Author Information page. Please submit papers through the ScholarOne system, and be sure to select the special issue name. Manuscripts should not be published or currently submitted for publication elsewhere. Please submit only full papers intended for review, not abstracts.
Important Submission Instructions:
As of 19 November 2024,
Computer Magazine will use the
IEEE Author Portal for all new submissions.
- If you have not yet started the submission process, please use the IEEE Author Portal to submit your article.
- If you have started a draft of your submission OR if you submitted your paper prior to the IEEE Author Portal launch, you will finish the peer review life cycle of submission(s) currently under review through https://ieee.atyponrex.com/journal/sw-cs. You do not need to submit a new manuscript. All new and future submissions will be submitted entirely through the IEEE Author Portal.
- In addition to submitting your paper to Computer, you are also encouraged to upload the data related to your paper to IEEE DataPort. IEEE DataPort is IEEE's data platform that supports the storage and publishing of datasets while also providing access to thousands of research datasets. Uploading your dataset to IEEE DataPort will strengthen your paper and will support research reproducibility. Your paper and the dataset can be linked, providing a good opportunity for you to increase the number of citations you receive. Data can be uploaded to IEEE DataPort prior to submitting your paper or concurrent with the paper submission. Thank you!
