Submission of Special Issue Proposals

Prospective organizers of a Special Issue are invited to submit a proposal to the Editor-in-Chief of IEEE Transactions on Haptics (ToH), including the following information:

  1. Proposed title of the Special Issue
  2. Aims, scope, and target audience
  3. Motivation for the proposal, such as a workshop, symposium, or other event held or planned in connection with the topic
  4. List of similar Special Issues published in other relevant journals over the past 10 years, with comments on how this proposal differs from or advances beyond those prior works
  5. List of at least six proposed papers, including prospective authors (with tentative titles and abstracts)

If the Special Issue proposal is accepted, the Guest Editors will be responsible for preparing a draft Call for Papers to be posted on the ToH website and distributed through appropriate mailing lists and community channels. Upon publication of the Special Issue, the Guest Editors are expected to write an Editorial article introducing the topic and summarizing the contributions of the included papers.
