| Thanks! Naturally I was curious about the big looming question "ok, so what is the cost/page for the new ACM TALG, then"? I surfed the journal's pages (at http://talg.acm.org/index.cfm) for a while but was unable to come up with an answer. A subcription to just the journal is $360, I assume that's yearly. But the number of issues per year seems to vary, and I failed completely to figure out the page count for a typical issue. I hope it's cheaper than before! :) Also, I love that the journal has submission rules that limit authors to max one paper regarding P != NP per 24 months: No author may submit more than one paper to J. ACM, ACM Trans. on Algorithms, ACM Trans. on Computation Theory, or SIAM J. on Computing in any 24 month period, purporting to resolve the P versus NP question or related long-standing questions in complexity theory, except by invitation of the Editor-in-Chief. I wonder if such limitations are needed/common in other fields, or if it's more of an in-joke. Also, there's a typo in Knuth's address on the Editors page. :) |
