[Amdnl] [IEEE-AMDTC] RE: First IEEE TAMD Impact Factor: 2.310 & TAMD Best Paper Award

[Gedeon Deák]

Actually, 2.3 is pretty good, when you consider that many decent
psychology or linguistics journals never pass 2.0. But when you
consider that it's only in its 4th year, it seems quite promising!
That is in large part due of your diligence and dedication, Zhengyou.
Thanks for all your hard work!
We can all help by working to solicit submissions and propose special
issues. I have been forwarding the TOCs and links to a big email list
at UCSD. Hopefully if we all do that sort of thing -- which takes
almost no time -- our submission numbers will continue to increase.
Good luck to us!
Gedeon

I want to thank everyone for your support and look forward to your continuous support. Please read, download, and cite, when appropriate, as many papers published in IEEE TAMD as possible, and encourage others to do so. Please also submit your own work to IEEE TAMD.
