Submissions templates and instructions:
Games are structured contexts where players have clear objectives, with victory as end goal. In a game, players must overcome challenges and face opponents (real or game characters) but always respecting a clearly-defined set of rules. Failure to follow these rules implies a punishment or penalty. Games can involve one player acting alone, two or more players acting cooperatively, or players or teams of players competing between themselves. Computer games are played through a computer, on a standalone or networked form. They are highly interactive and motivating products.
The use of games for learning is effective because they create rich contexts where educational objectives can be defined and theoretical concepts can be applied in practical situations. Furthermore, educational games promote the development of personal and social skills because they favor cultural awareness, socialization, respect for others, teamwork, leadership, decision making and collaborative learning. It is therefore possible to get a convergence of games and learning in three distinct areas: training (professional and social context); formal education (classroom and school context), non-formal education (outside the school context).
However, there is still a limited use of game-based learning in formal education. This has mainly to do with social concerns and stereotypes about the relation of games and education. Other issues relate to physical and cost barriers, hardware and license cost, access (for online games), maintenance and support, teachers’ confidence in using the game for a specific curriculum goal. But this limited use is also related to the lack of extended evidence of effective application. Therefore a dedicated journal is necessary to demonstrate the validity of this learning methodology.
The EAI Endorsed Transactions on Game-Based Learning is a multidisciplinary approach to the presentation of research, theory, application, practice and validation in the field of Game-Based Learning for any level and any area of education. As such it will cover areas like cognition, psychology, technology-enhanced education, evaluation and assessment, multimedia and information technology. By Game-Based Learning, are considered all forms of formal or informal learning which are supported by digital (or not) simulations, games, modeling, virtual and augmented reality, new interaction devices, toys and playthings.

As the world moves steadily to become a knowledge-based economy, education and learning have never been more important. Technology is playing an increasingly crucial role in the delivery of education, which in turn is driving research into finding ever better technological solutions. Each wave of technological advance has opened new opportunities for teachers and students. First the arrival of personal computers popularized computer aided learning, next the internet introduced eL now the age of intelligent environments is bringing such pedagogical advances as smart classrooms, intelligent campuses, immersive reality, affective learning, mobile learning, intelligent learning clouds and personalised intelligent avatar-like tutors to revolutionize current learning practices, and to challenge the traditional notion of a university or school. Intelligent Environments have been heralded as a technology to radically transform our society, and the nature of teaching and learning. There is an urgent need for a journal that acts as a focus for researchers and practitioners to pool knowledge together and to advance the science and art of
teaching, learning, and pedagogical practice, making it more efficient, cost-effective, and fun.
To achieve the above outcomes, this Journal (TOFIEE) will focus on showcasing new technologies that can help to make a difference to teaching and learning experiences, by enriching the learning process and the teaching infrastructure.
Central to our forum will be enriched physical and environments such as smart classrooms, virtual / mixed reality environments, intelligent learning clouds or mobile and augmented reality systems that can interact with students and teachers at a pedagogical level, so as to bring true innovations to education. We will also include the systems that support the learning of practical skills, such as those typified by science and engineering laboratories that are critical to students following technology courses. The journal will also include consideration of the wider campus infrastructure which can also impact the cost and effectiveness of education. Examples include smart signage that can guide people around a campus or smart applications for timetabling or managing the environment of the teaching facilities. Education is increasingly global and multicultural in nature and thus, the cultural dimension is a topic we would seek to include.
This Journal will serve as a forum for researchers and practitioners to discuss the latest intelligent technologies that can support the development of new educational technologies and environments around the world.
Given the multi-disciplinary nature of the areas involved, the journal aims to promote participation from several different communities covering a variety of topics: pedagogical strategies, technical (infrastructure), social- interaction, inclusion, and socialization in intelligent educational environments and systems, etc.
The journal will aim to attract reports on research and development related to a number of areas, including:

This journal will provide a venue for publishing the latest research and developments in the area of ubiquitous environments.
Marc Weiser’s original vision of an ubiquitous computing environment may not be fully realized yet. However, several significant strides have been made in the past decade in bringing us closer to realizing this vision. The journal will deal with contributions in the topics of smart spaces with ambient intelligence where sensors in the environment help a system to appropriately react to people, context-aware pervasive computing systems where the current context enables the system to guide the user’s tasks, home area networking systems that can intelligently monitor, track and control a home’s environment, and vehicular sensor networks, where a collection of sensors monitor and control the vehicle’s well-being.
The journal in particular welcomes contributions that deal with the various aspects of computing and communications that help achieve this goal. These include Ubiquitous Environments Infrastructure Design and Implementation, Operating Systems and Programming Environments for Smart Mobile Devices, Embedded Systems and Networking Support for Ubiquitous Environments, Middleware, Security and Privacy Support for Ubiquitous Environments, and Hardware/Software Co-design principles.
Papers that describe innovative applications and test-beds that demonstrate the utility of ubiquitous environments, and tools that enable development of novel applications are also welcome.

Education is one domain that has accompanied civilization throughout the centuries, adapting its tools to fulfill the expectations of students and the needs of teachers. Such tools can be as obvious and traditional as pencils and notebooks, or as complex and innovative as websites or multi-user virtual environments. Typical in-person learning environments, such as classrooms and meeting rooms, are at times not the best solution to enable and maximize a student’s ability to learn. Although they do fulfill their purpose of giving students the opportunity to understanding course material and to of reaching their instructors, they sometimes can create barriers that cannot be easily overcome.
Web-based instruction and multi-user virtual environments allow more freedom in terms of time restraints and the physical limitations innate to typical lectures and classroom settings. Through these innovative mediums we can explore concepts while being a part of a learning community through socialization and collaboration online.
Many universities, public institutions and private businesses are projecting themselves on the Internet and in virtual worlds to reach the customer at any time, giving them the notion of a virtual presence that cannot be delivered through a simple website. This observation sparks the idea that is at the very foundation of this publication with a focus on e-learning and e-education.
This journal’s aim is to become a central repository of information about the utilization of on-line education through web-based instruction and multi-user virtual environments. With this journal we wish to create a one-stop resource to teachers, researchers and practitioners who wish to access information of high quality and broad coverage. Topics to be discussed in this journal focus on (but not limited to) the following concepts:
Teaching/Educational Models and Frameworks
Accessibility and usability of web-based instruction in the classroom
Best Practices
Developing courses and content to be used in on-line educational environments
Student engagement
Experiments
Impacts of on-line on traditional teaching and learning strategies
Cost analysis
Teaching, Multi-User Virtual Environments, Learning, Classroom Extension, Teaching Practices, Education Research, Distance Learning, Instructional Technologies, Computer-Based Training, On-line Education

Submissions templates and instructions:
Growing threats and increasingly also failures due to complexity may compromise the security and resilience of network and service infrastructures. Applications and services require security of data handling and we need new security architectures and scalable and interoperable security policies for this.
There is a need to guarantee end-to-end security in data communications and storage, including identity management and authentication. Moreover, we need technology to enable network security monitoring and tracing and to assess the trustworthiness of infrastructures and services. It must ensure the protection of personal data and privacy and to properly assign liability and risks, together with the appropriate governance models needed to do so. Furthermore this is applied to the settings of Public Safety in general.
