Use when targeting IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications (JSAC) or deciding whether a communications-and-networking manuscript fits this venue. Encodes the journal's call-driven fit, the high-impact-and-topical bar, the route-by-active-call logic, house style, official-submission re-check, and desk-reject heuristics.

# IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications (ieee-journal-on-selected-areas-in-communications) ## Journal positioning IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications (JSAC) publishes high-impact work at the systems and networks frontier of communications, organized largely around **topical special issues defined by current calls for papers** — next-generation wireless, networking, security, optical and quantum communication, and machine-learning-for-communications, among others. Unlike a broad-scope transaction, JSAC's fit is set by the active call: a paper must match a specific issue's theme and clear a bar of impact and timeliness, not merely be technically correct. Routine, incremental results — even sound ones — that do not advance a call's frontier are a poor fit. This skill is a **fit / venue-selection / re-framing** tool. It does not replace the journal's current official author guidelines or any call's specific instructions. Before submitting, re-check the live JSAC author information and the target call for papers. ## When to trigger - The author names JSAC for a communications/networking manuscript and wants to check fit against an active or upcoming special-issue

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill ieee-journal-on-selected-areas-in-communications --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills, a repository with 984 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
