------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Electronic Publishing:  Origination, Dissemination and Design (EP-odd) is an
International journal that publishes refereed papers on all aspects of
electronic publishing.  A broad interpretation of the topic is taken and we
wish to encourage articles in areas such as structured editors, authoring
tools, hypermedia, document bases, production of concordances and indexes,
document display on workstations, electronic documents over networks,
integration of text and illustrations, typeface design, imaging hardware
relevant to electronic publishing, etc.  (although this list is far from
exhaustive).  The major requirement is that the paper should address some
aspect of publishing in the electronic era, with computers being
involved---however tenuously---in one or more of the themes mentioned in the
journal's subtitle.

The overlap of electronic publishing with areas such as graphics, databases
and computer networks is recognized and acknowledged.  The journal
encourages articles that help to integrate techniques from these and other
areas into the mainstream of electronic publishing, but it is not the
intention to publish papers that are so closely focused on the related area
that they belong more properly in specialist journals for that field.
Articles may take the form of research papers on some particular topic, case
studies describing the evolution and implementation of systems, surveys of
the state-of-the-art in some area of electronic publishing or tutorials on
topics that are part of current practice but which have hitherto been
inadequately documented.  Articles may vary from short notes of about two
pages to weighty papers as long as forty pages (for some detailed survey,
perhaps) but we expect the average paper to be in the range of ten to twenty
pages.

In addition to research papers, EPodd occasionally includes a column called
"EP-odds and Ends," which is edited but not formally refereed.  Instead of
having a fixed set of columnists and topics, the columns range through the
broad range of topics that make up EP.  The column is be a place where
positions can be taken, news passed along, topical issues considered, etc.,
without requiring the formal structure associated with the refereed research
papers that make up the rest of the issue.  Columns should have a cohesive
point to make and should be persuasively written.  They are generally
expected to be in the range of 2 to 4 EP-odd pages in length, although we
have run longer ones when the topic warrants.

As we enter volume 5, we thought it appropriate to reiterate our continuing
call for papers.  Papers may be submitted (four copies) to either Professor
D. F. Brailsford, Department of Computer Science, University of
Nottingham, University Park, Nottingham NG7 2RD, UK (epodd@cs.nott.ac.uk),
or Professor R. K. Furuta, Department of Computer Science, University of
Maryland, College Park, MD 20742, USA (furuta@cs.umd.edu).  (Once a paper is
accepted for publication, we also request the electronic form version of the
paper.)  Further information, and a copy of the Transmittal Form/Publishing
Agreement, can be obtained from the editors.
