The
International Journal of Design Computing is a refereed journal that is
published on the World Wide Web and will be archived by the University
of Sydney Library. The objective of the journal is to promote research
and technology transfer in design computing through the publication of
interactive, multimedia journal articles within the general topic of design
computing.
The journal articles
are peer reviewed and have a forum for discussion for a period of six months
after the article is published. Articles will be available immediately
after acceptance, eliminating the large lead time for publication. The
journal, including original articles plus discussions, will be archived
on an annual basis. The annual volume will be available as a CD.
The IJDC is a
participant of the National Library of Australia's PANDORA (Preserving
and Accessing Networked Documentary Resources of Australia) project. PANDORA's
aim is to implement procedures for managing the archiving and provision
of long term access to online publications.
