Hi Bhaskar and all,
Please also consider the looking into the CODATA Data Science Journal
when looking into journals. Briefly, the CODATA Data Science Journal is
an open access journal that focuses on data science and is described in
detail at the http://datascience.codata.org/ URL. Several ESIP and RDA
members serve on the DSJ Editorial Board, including me.
Thanks,
Bob
