Journal of Open Source Software

The Journal of Open Source Software (JOSS) is a developer friendly journal for research software packages.

This business network defines:

Participant person

Asset paper

Transaction Submit Feedback Usage

Initially a paper asset is submitted to JOSS by an author person. The editor person must asign the reviewer(s) person using the Feedback transaction. This Feedback transaction can be re-used to capture the communication and any changes in the paper, that is changes in state or any change in the field, for example asigning a proper DOI. After the paper has been accepted then the transaction usage will keep track of the number of times the submitted software has been used by a third party. This usage can provide feedback statistics for the editor and the author on the popularity of the software.
