The Journal of Open Source Software (JOSS) is an open access, peer-reviewed scientific journal published by Open Journals.[1] It covers open-source software from any research discipline.[2][3] The editor-in-chief is Arfon Smith (Space Telescope Science Institute) who launched the journal in May 2016.[4] The journal is a sponsored project of NumFOCUS and an affiliate of the Open Source Initiative.[5] One unique feature is that the journal uses GitHub as publishing platform.[6]
In its first year, starting in May 2016, JOSS published 111 articles, with more than 40 additional articles under review.[1]. Examples include papers described software developed at LBNL[7] and the Sanger Institute[8].
The journal has been discussed in several peer reviewed papers which describe its publishing model and its effectiveness.[9].
Abstracting and indexing
The journal has been included and indexed in two substantial repositories; the DOAJ which applies criteria designed to select high-quality open-source journals[10] and the subject-specific Astrophysics Data System, the NASA archive responsible for providing indexes of scholarly publication to astronomers.
