Journal Guide

This journal addresses the accessibility, usability, and, ultimately, acceptability of Information Society Technologies by anyone, anywhere, at anytime, and through any media and device. Universal Access in the Information Society (UAIS) focuses on theoretical, methodological, and empirical research, of both a technological and non-technological nature, that addresses equitable access and active participation of potentially all citizens in the information society. It features papers that report on theories, methods, tools, empirical results, reviews, case studies, and best-practice examples. The Journal's primary objectives are to: - provide an archival publication channel for the discussion and advancement of theoretical and practical aspects of universal access in the information society - facilitate the rapid and wide diffusion of scientific and technological results that promote universal access in the information society - stimulate cross-fertilization between the different contributing disciplines.

The aim of the journal is to disseminate research and provoke discussion in the area of Virtual Reality. The multidisciplinary nature of the field means that submissions will be welcomed on a wide range of topics including, but not limited to, the following: Virtual Reality Technology and Software Systems Design of VR systems and VEs Human Factors Virtual Reality Applications Assessment of Virtual Reality Systems Philosophical and Ethical Issues Advances Relevant to Virtual Reality The journal also welcomes research contributions on specific application areas including, but not limited to, the following: Business and Commerce Defence and Military Education and Training Entertainment and Gaming Fashion, Heritage Medicine Telecommunications Visualisation Since readers may be unfamiliar with the technical detail of the specific topic being discussed, emphasis will be placed on clear, well-written, and accessible articles which will appeal to a multidisciplinary audience.
