Some publishers of traditional journals for which submission is free but readers must pay a subscription have shied away from open-access journals because it was not clear whether they would be profitable.
To celebrate this, we organized a special issue in which all submissions are from our board members, and an open invitation for editing special topics is valid through all this year.
A possible reason for this is the way in which submission types are assigned and the fact that review criteria are tailored to each submission type.
Before Hong Kong's transfer of sovereignty, between 20 May 1987 and 31 March 1988, a contest was held amongst Hong Kong residents to help choose a flag for post-colonial Hong Kong, with 7,147 design submissions, in which 4,489 submissions were about flag designs.
The first scoring method involved the use of a published network inference algorithm (Mitsos et al., 2009) to generate a 'silver standard' network against which all submissions were evaluated.
The memorial competition, which attracted 5,201 submissions, was conducted apart from the other planning for Ground Zero.
More than 11,500 submissions were made, which Cooper Clarke then used as inspiration to create the final poem, released in time for National Poetry Day on 8 October.
The first is "quid pro quo," in which submission to the conduct is made a condition of, say, a promotion or continued employment.
The first part of the questionnaire concerned the time at which submission of consent forms was required, how long they were stored, and reasons given for requiring them.
It works like Digg.com in having users make submissions, which are then voted on by readers.
