Welcome to the first issue of BITR!
June 2003

Welcome to The Bulletin of Information Technology Research, a new publication from CITRUS and the National Advisory Committee on Computing Qualifications (NACCQ). The Bulletin is an editorially reviewed journal published online up to four times a year. The aim of BITR is to publish works in progress and scholarly writings from new and emerging researchers, primarily in New Zealand. The focus of the journal is very much on the application of information and communications technologies to our everyday world, whether this is business, education or society in general. As such the journal welcomes submissions from researchers in this area and the editors would particularly like to encourage submissions from post-graduate students in this field.

BITR welcomes submissions from writers and researchers in the field of applied information and communications technology. In particular we would like to encourage submissions from new and emerging researchers, especially from practitioner/academics working within the NACCQ sector and from students, particularly those in postgraduate study who are also working in the field. Discussions on research in progress and emergent research will also be accepted. Submissions will normally be between 3,000 and 5,000 words. Are you interested in submitting a paper to BITR?

BITR is published by CITRUS, the National Centres for Information Technology Research, a co-ordinated network of physical and virtual research clusters across New Zealand with a focus on applied ICT research. It is an initiative of the NACCQ's Research Support Working Group, which is charged with support existing and emerging researchers in the field of applied ICT. NACCQ also publishes the Journal of Applied Computing and Information Technology (JACIT) and hosts an annual conference, which is now in its 16th year.
