_M-Bed(sm): A Registry of Embedded Multimedia Electronic Journals_
I am pleased to announcement the formal establishment of
a new registry of electronic journals that incorporate or integrate
embedded multimedia within their e-articles. The registry is
entitled:
_M-Bed(sm): A Registry of Embedded Multimedia Electronic Journals_
and is accessible from
http://www.public.iastate.edu/~CYBERSTACKS/M-Bed.htm
Currently the registry is only an alphabetical listing of identified
e-journal titles. As time permits, I will be preparing specialized indexes by
type of multimedia and plug-in as well. The registry
also contains a General Bibliography of key works on the topic of multimedia in
e-journals.
I have prepared a 2,000 word newsletter article on "Embedded
Multimedia in Electronic Journals" that is scheduled to be published within the
newsletter of the Special Interest Group on
Visualization, Images, and Sound (VIS) of the American Society for Information
Science (ASIS) in the near future. The address for the ASIS SIG VIS is
http://www.asis.org/SIG/SIGVIS/news.html
I would greatly appreciate learning of additional multimedia e-journals as
well as receiving citations/sitations to any high-relevant literature not
currently listed for expanded article I will be preparing this summer for a Fall
deadline.
I wish to express my gratitude to all who contributed nominations for this
listing as well as
relevant citations from my previous queries.
Thanks again to all!
