Title: A Journal of the Committee on Data for Science and Technology (CODATA) of the International Council for Science (ICSU)


1
  • A Journal of the Committee on Data for Science
    and Technology (CODATA) of the International
    Council for Science (ICSU)
  • http//www.datasciencejournal.org.

  • The issues that confront builders and suppliers
    of scientific and engineering databases usually
    occur across many fields, yet there is virtually
    no mechanism for sharing new knowledge across
    disciplines. The Data Science Journal is designed
    to foster such communication and convey new
    insights and progress to the scientific data
    community, regardless of discipline.
  • CODATA, the Committee on Data for Science and
    Technology of the International Council of
    Scientific Unions is sponsoring this new
    peer-reviewed, on-line journal devoted to
    scientific and engineering data.
  • An international editorial board has been
    appointed. The Editor-in-Chief is Professor FJ
    Smith OBE MRIA FIMA of Queens University
    Belfast. The first issue was published on-line at
    the end of April 2002.

  • Scope of the Data Science Journal
  • The focus will be on data management and delivery
    issues rather
  • than contents of specific databases in Science
    and Technology.
  • Data
  • Data capture, synthesis, analysis, evaluation
    metadata data generation
  • Data structures data storage, indexing,
    retrieval
  • Data exchange and sharing
  • Data display and manipulation
  • Data dissemination strategies printing, CD-ROM,
    internet
  • Data quality, data consistency, data standards

  • Scope of the journal (continued)
  • Database
  • Database planning, design, maintenance
    archiving
  • Interfacing databases to the internet to other
    systems, to data products interoperability
  • Database standards compatibility federated
    databases
  • Data mining, data science
  • Human-computer interfaces visualisation in
    databases
  • Use of database packages, commercial issues
    distributed databases
  • Legal issues, intellectual property rights data
    policy data access
  • Financial management, pricing, charging,
    marketing, selling e-commerce
  • Applications
  • Industrial applications, industrial requirements
  • Adding intelligence to data systems, data
    modelling
  • Novel applications case studies
    interdisciplinary systems

  • Submitting papers to the journal
  • Anyone interested in submitting a paper to the
    journal should email a copy to the
    Editorin-Chief, Professor FJ Smith, at
