Aims and Scope

The Journal of Systems and Software publishes papers covering all aspects of software engineering and related hardware-software-systems issues. All articles should include a validation of the idea presented, e.g. through case studies, experiments, or systematic comparisons with other approaches already in practice. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

• Methods and tools for, and empirical studies on, software requirements, design, architecture, verification and validation, maintenance and evolution
• Agile, model-driven, service-oriented, open source and global software development
• Approaches for mobile, multiprocessing, real-time, distributed, cloud-based, dependable and virtualized systems
• Human factors and management concerns of software development
• Data management and big data issues of software systems
• Metrics and evaluation, data mining of software development resources
• Business and economic aspects of software development processes

The journal welcomes state-of-the-art surveys and reports of practical experience for all of these topics.

Verified Reviews

Note: Verified reviews are sourced from across review platforms and social media globally.

A few days ago, the required review was completed with not many comments from three reviewers. It lasted for about a month and a few days. The main reason might be that the editor felt that there were too few comments from the first two reviewers, so there were hardly any changes required. The status date for the completed required review was updated on October 13th, and I believe that was when the third reviewer's comments were received. Overall, the entire review process took about two months and a few days.

A few days ago, the review was released with few comments from three reviewers. The required review process lasted for about a month, maybe a few more days. The main reason is probably that the editor felt that there were too few comments from the first two reviewers, so there were hardly any changes required. The status date of the "required review completed" was updated on October 13, and I believe that was when the feedback from the third reviewer was received.
