In January 2004, the Editor-in-Chief (EiC) Vladimir Lumelsky passed the IEEE Sensors Journal (SJ) to H. Troy Nagle (North Carolina State University). At that time, the administrative support for the SJ was by the staff of the IEEE Signal Processing Society (SPS). Its initial success had generated a large queue of manuscripts in the review process and the queue was growing monthly. Paper copies of manuscripts were being distributed by the postal service and follow-up checking was very difficult. This prompted the SJ Editorial Board to explore online manuscript processing using the ScholarOne tools. The IEEE Lasers and Electro-Optics Society (LEOS) had previously moved all its journals to that platform. We requested their help and the LEOS staff answered and took charge of the SJ administration. With their help, the submitted manuscript backlog reversed course and began diminishing. After about 18 months, the queue reached a minimum, and then slowly returned to expansion as the SJ gained popularity with the academic and industrial sensor community.

IEEE Sensors Journal 的学龄期（2004 年至 2011 年）


2004 年 1 月，主编 (EiC) Vladimir Lumelsky 将 IEEE Sensors Journal (SJ) 交给了 H. Troy Nagle（北卡罗来纳州立大学）。当时，SJ 的行政支持由 IEEE 信号处理协会 (SPS) 的工作人员提供。它最初的成功在审稿过程中产生了大量的稿件，而且队列每月都在增长。手稿的纸质副本由邮政部门分发，后续检查非常困难。这促使 SJ 编辑委员会探索使用 ScholarOne 工具进行在线稿件处理。 IEEE 激光和电光协会 (LEOS) 此前已将其所有期刊转移到该平台。我们请求他们的帮助，LEOS 工作人员回答了并负责 SJ 的管理。在他们的帮助下，提交的手稿积压发生了逆转，并开始减少。大约 18 个月后，队列达到最低限度，然后随着 SJ 在学术和工业传感器社区中越来越受欢迎，队列慢慢恢复扩张。
