Abstract
The SI programme has resulted in coherent, high-quality collections of papers that are easy to locate.
We welcome proposals for Special Issues from potential Guest Editors, but emphasise that papers in Special Issues undergo the same degree of review and scrutiny as regular papers.
We have an exciting SI schedule for 2025, and we encourage our readers and authors to browse the journal website and submit their papers to these.
In 2025 the IET RSN journal is moving to a continuous publication model. This means that articles are published in one volume/one issue each year and so papers will not be grouped into separate multiple issues within a volume.
Articles will be published in either ascending or descending order of the date of publication. Articles assigned to a Special Issue will be published in the issue when ready and grouped together in a virtual collection.
The change to a continuous publication model complements our transition of the journal to Gold Open Access in 2020.
The editors of the IET RSN journal have always striven to maintain a reputation for rapid processing and publication. Statistics for 2024 (to the end of November) show that the median time from submission to first decision is 25 days, and from acceptance to e-first publication is 29 days. This achievement has depended on rapid responses by our reviewers, and we express our gratitude to the reviewers for their time, expertise and hard work in refereeing papers and maintaining the reputation of the journal, both for quality and for rapid publication. This is an essential part of the publication process, but necessarily the reviewers must remain anonymous. This editorial is one place where we can acknowledge their contribution and record our thanks to them.
