  2. Plans for 2014 • Attracting more high quality papers: • In 2013 we attracted 107 submissions, which represents about a 45% increase over JACIC in 2012, even though the JAIS was launched in Jan 2013. • Focus on both domestic and international markets. • Facilitating more interaction between the readership and the authors via moderated content. • Further improving time to decision metrics (note 2013 numbers were still heavily affected by unaddressed backlog from very old JACIC papers).

  3. Building JAIS • JAIS is an inherently interdisciplinary journal focusing on the theoretical aspects and practical applications of information systems in the aerospace domain. As a new journal we have focused on sourcing papers that provide novel contributions in these areas through a variety of mechanisms. • Paper Sourcing Strategy • Special Issues: 5 special issues in development in areas as diverse as UAVs, software verification and validation, resilient and distributed operation of aerospace systems, uncertainty quantification, human-automation interaction, and information security in the ATM. • AIAA Conferences: AIAA Aviation, Infotech (about 50 papers sourced per year). EIC goes through all papers and invites authors to submit. Papers go through standard review process and should provide further substantive developments beyond the conference paper. Excellent support from AIAA (Heather, Craig, and their teams) in sending invitations to large numbers of authors quickly and efficiently. • Former Authors of JACIC: We approached many authors that had contributed to JACIC before.

  4. Acknowledgment • The Associate Editors and Editorial Advisory Board have been invaluable in advising on Special Issues, referring authors, and providing timely and thorough editorial coverage for JAIS. The sourcing strategy’s success is due to their efforts.

  5. Moderated Content • In Q2-Q3 of 2013 we began experimenting with an EIC-moderated commenting feature for JAIS papers. Registered members are given the opportunity to comment on papers. • As of today this feature hasn’t been used most likely due to the fact that it is a new capability virtually unheard of in the aerospace domain. • EIC is fully supportive of this capability for JAIS and would like to work with the Publication Committee to broadly inform the readership of this new capability.

  6. Market Potential • JAIS has a significant long-term market potential and will track the growth of interdisciplinary research between Aerospace Engineering and Computer Science. • This new and focused venue should help develop this important area which will have significant impact in both fields. • The EIC believes that joint activities with AIAA conferences focusing on areas within the scope of the journal will further develop this market.
