Proposed Renumbering of Papers in Volume 23

We have normally been incrementing the Volume Number for JCSE on the 1^st of January each year, but owing to software and other problems this has not happened since 2020. This has resulted in a large number of papers in Volume 23. Consequently we are considering moving papers submitted in later years into new volumes. We intend to do this in such a way that existing references and links to papers will still function correctly, so a reference to JCSE Volume 23, Paper 55 (the first paper to be renumbered) will still find the moved paper at JCSE Volume 24 Paper 1 (or whatever paper number we assign to the moved paper). To guide our decision about whether to proceed with this change, and how to handle paper numbering, we have prepared a one-page question on Google Forms:

This question will remain open until the end of October.

JCSE Volume Listing

The following lists the volumes that are currently available. In the early years of the journal volume names were changed on a rather arbitrary basis, particularly whenever a special volume was issued. More recently volumes have covered one year, with special issues being incorporated into the annual volume. In each case click on the volume number to view the list of papers in that volume.

Please note that papers are published in preprint form as PDF files while they are being refereed. Papers may also be published in preprint form when they have been submitted to other Journals. In either case readers should appreciate that a preprint is not a formal publication, and it should not normally be referenced until the final paper has been published.
