What you'll find

A journal for wireless, multimedia, and applied computer science.

JOWIM welcomes original research articles, review papers, and short communications across the full stack of modern electronic systems — from cellular networks and antennas to web security and FTTH planning.

Aims & scope

Computer science, computer engineering, IT, wireless & multimedia.

We publish across the full overlap of these fields. Work that crosses disciplinary boundaries — networking combined with applied security, antenna design for specific protocols, multimedia QoS on real networks — is especially welcome.
