Electronic journal publication in the U. S.

Abstract

In order to collect information for developing JST's electronic journal system, J-STAGE, we visited American Physical Society (APS), American Institute of Physics (AIP), Association of Computing Machinery (ACM), American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE), and HighWire. We interviewed American Chemical Society (ACS) separately. SGML was used widely to develop electronic journals. Web-based manuscript submission and peer-reviewing were tried, but not extensively yet. Hearing results were summerized.
