Journal of Real-Time Image Processing

Although there are many journals addressing the subject of image processing, the Journal of Real-Time Image Processing (JRTIP) is the only one that is solely dedicated to the real-time aspects of image and video processing such as computational complexity, frame processing rate of operation, real-time hardware implementation, real-time software optimization, etc.

It is often the case that an image processing algorithm is developed and proven theoretically sound, presumably with a specific application in mind, but its practical applications and the detailed steps, methodology, and trade-off analysis required to achieve its real-time performance are not explored. JRTIP is thus intended to bridge the gap between the theory and practice of image and video processing, serving the greater community of researchers, practicing engineers, and industrial professionals who deal with designing, implementing or utilizing real-time image and video processing systems.

The median time indicated below is computed over all the submitted manuscripts including the ones that are not put into the review pipeline at the onset of the review process. A typical review time for manuscripts that go through the review pipeline is about 100 days.

Topics covered in the journal include:

• Real-time image and video processing algorithms
• Real-time embedded image/video processing systems
• Real-time image and video processing hardware and architecture including FPGA, DSP, GPU, GPP, ASIC, System-on-Chip (SoC), and System-in-a-Package (SiP) implementations
• Real-time software optimizations and related design paradigms for image/video processing
• Real-time hardware/software co-design for image and video processing
• Real-time image and video processing applications including digital, cell-phone, and smart cameras, machine vision, industrial inspection, surveillance and security, image and video compression for transmission and for database storage and retrieval, biomedical imaging, spectral imaging, etc.

The editorial board consists of a dedicated team of experts from academia and industry who have played a major role in promoting the area of real-time image and video processing. The Editor-in-Chief and the editorial board members have an established track record in this area. The Editor-in-Chief  brings several years of experience from his previous involvement with the journal Real-Time Imaging (RTI), which preceded JRTIP publishing real-time image and video processing papers.

ANNOUNCEMENT: A 12-page limit including references and bio (double column pages as per the journal format) will be applied to all manuscript submissions. It should be noted that manuscripts not abiding by this page limit and the journal double column format will be returned to authors and will not be placed in the review pipeline. You can find more information, including a LaTeX template, under "Instructions for Authors.”
