Due to the importance of the field, standardization organizations such as WS-I, W3C, OASIS and Liberty Alliance are actively developing standards for Web services. The International Journal of Web Services Research (JWSR) is the first refereed, international publication featuring only the latest research findings and industry solutions dealing with all aspects of Web services technology. The overall scope of this journal will cover the advancements in the state of the art, standards, and practice of Web services, as well as to identify the emerging research topics and define the future of Services computing, including Web services on Grid computing, Web services on multimedia, Web services on communication, etc. In conclusion, the JWSR provides an open, formal publication for high quality articles developed by theoreticians, educators, developers, researchers and practitioners for professionals to stay abreast of challenges in Web services technology Instructions to Authors Guidelines for Submission: Originality Prospective authors should note that only original and previously unpublished manuscripts will be considered. Furthermore, simultaneous submissions are not acceptable. Submission of a manuscript is interpreted as a statement of certification that no part of the manuscript is copyrighted by any other publication nor is under review by any other formal publication.

Direct quotations of another author's work should be followed by the author's name, date of publication, and the page(s) on which the quotation appears in the original text. Example 1: Brown (2002) states that "the value of information resources is realized by most organizations"(p. 45). Example 2: In most organizations, "information resources are considered to be a major organization asset"(Smith, 2003, pp. 35-36) and must be carefully monitored by the senior management. For more information please consult the APA manual. Review process To ensure the high quality of published material, JWSR utilizes a group of experts to review submitted manuscripts. Upon receipt of the manuscript, two reviewers are selected from the Editorial Review Board of the Journal. The selection is based upon the particular area of expertise of the reviewers, matched to the subject matter of the submission. An additional ad-hoc reviewer is also selected to review the manuscript. Therefore, each submission is accordingly blind reviewed by at least three reviewers. Revised manuscripts will be reviewed again by the original review panel with the addition of one new reviewer. Return of a manuscript to the author(s) for revision does not guarantee acceptance of the manuscript for publication. The final decision will be based upon the comments of the reviewers, upon their second review of the revised manuscript. Copyright Authors are asked to sign a warranty and copyright agreement upon acceptance of their manuscript, before the manuscript can be published. All copyrights, including translation of the published material into other languages are reserved by the publisher, Idea Group Inc. Upon transfer of the copyright to the publisher, no part of the manuscript may be reproduced in any form without written permission of the publisher, except for noncommercial, educational use such as for classroom teaching purposes. Submission Authors are asked to submit their manuscripts for possible publication by e-mail as a file attachment in Microsoft Word or RTF (Rich Text Format) to zhanglj@us.ibm.com. The main body of the e-mail message should contain the title of the paper and the names and addresses of all authors. Manuscripts must be in English. The author's name should not be included anywhere in the manuscript, except on the cover page. Manuscripts must also be accompanied by an abstract of 100-150 words, precisely summarizing the mission and object of the manuscript. Length The length of the submitted manuscript must not exceed 20-25 double-spaced, typed pages. Discussion and analysis should be complete but not unnecessarily long or repetitive. Correspondence The acknowledgment letter regarding the receipt of the manuscript will be promptly sent. The review process will take approximately 8-16 weeks, and the author will be notified concerning the possibility of publication of the manuscript as soon as the review process is completed. All correspondence will be directed to the first author of multi-authored manuscripts. It is the responsibility of the first author to communicate with the other author(s). Authors of accepted manuscript will be asked to provide a final copy of their manuscript in either Word or RTF text format stored on a 3 1/2" disk, zip disk or CD-ROM, accompanied by a hardcopy of the manuscript and the original signed copy of the Warranty and Copyright Agreement. The accepted manuscript will be edited by the Journal copyeditor for format and style. Book Reviews JWSR invites prospective book reviewers to submit their review of either textbooks or professional books for possible inclusion in the Journal. Reviewers should focus on the following guidelines when developing the book review: Book reviews must not exceed 1500 words Reviews should summarize the book and indicate the highlights, strengths, and weaknesses of the book. Reviews should evaluate the organizational and managerial applications of the material discussed in the book relevant to information resources and technology management. Reviews should critique and constructively evaluate the author's work and not merely list the chapters?contents. The writing style, accuracy, relevance, and the need for such a work in the discipline should be analyzed. The review must include the title of the book, author, publishing company, publication date, number of pages, cost (if listed), and ISBN number. Each submission must be accompanied by a short biography of the reviewer. Case Studies: JWSR also encourages submission of case studies based on actual cases related to different issues and aspects of Web services technologies and solutions. Case studies must provide adequate information regarding the organization upon which the case is based, discussion of the issues involved, coverage of any experiments or trials of techniques or managerial approaches, and finally, discussion of any lessons learned or conclusions drawn from this study. Special Issue Proposal JWSR publishes special issues on the recent trends in Web services technologies and solutions. A short proposal containing the title of proposed special issue, tentative list of invited authors, suggested date of publication and a call-for-papers should be sent to zhanglj@us.ibm.com for review.
