About this journal
Aims and scope
The aim of the Journal of Organizational Computing and Electronic Commerce (JOCEC) is to publish quality, fresh, and innovative work that will make a difference for future research and practice rather than focusing on well-established research areas.
JOCEC publishes original research that explores the relationships between computer/communication technology and the design, operations, and performance of organizations. This includes implications of the technologies for organizational structure and dynamics, technological advances to keep pace with changes of organizations and their environments, emerging technological possibilities for improving organizational performance, and the many facets of electronic business.
Theoretical, experimental, survey, and design science research are all welcome and might look at:
• E-commerce
• Collaborative commerce
• Interorganizational systems
• Enterprise systems
• Supply chain technologies
• Computer-supported cooperative work
• Computer-aided coordination
• Economics of organizational computing
• Technologies for organizational learning
• Behavioral aspects of organizational computing
Submissions will be screened for suitability and, once the author has been notified of the screening result, accepted submissions will then be evaluated by two to four referees. The double-anonymized refereeing of submissions is directed by the Editor-in-Chief, a Senior Editor, or an Associate Editor.

Understanding and using journal metrics
Journal metrics can be a useful tool for readers, as well as for authors who are deciding where to submit their next manuscript for publication. However, any one metric only tells a part of the story of a journal’s quality and impact. Each metric has its limitations which means that it should never be considered in isolation, and metrics should be used to support and not replace qualitative review.
We strongly recommend that you always use a number of metrics, alongside other qualitative factors such as a journal’s aims & scope, its readership, and a review of past content published in the journal. In addition, a single article should always be assessed on its own merits and never based on the metrics of the journal it was published in.
For more details, please read the Author Services guide to understanding journal metrics.
