The Journal of Internet Services and Applications, a new quarterly journal to be launched in April 2010, will disseminate scientific knowledge and technological research to further the development of the internet. It will provide a platform for the discussion of state-of-the-art internet research and will focus on research and development initiatives for internet applications, services and technologies. International in scope, JISA will solicit papers from researchers, practitioners and industrial partners worldwide.
