IJSPR is the first journal dedicated to publishing peer-reviewed reports on the research and design process, validation and implementation of student-conducted projects in the fields of computing science, engineering, architecture and related areas. The journal also publishes short communications, letters to the Editor and reviews of textbooks in the same areas. A Best Paper Award, sponsored by Maplesoft, is awarded annually.
Topics covered include
- Capstone projects
- Honors projects
- Student club projects
- Student competitions
- Industry sponsorship
- Engineering design and analysis
- Architectural design
- Computer-aided design
- Computer programming
- Prototyping and implementation
- Testing and validation
- Teamwork
- Team leadership
Objectives
The objective of IJSPR is to provide a forum in which students can present the results of their work, and to act as a source of useful ideas for student teams engaging in new projects, including contributions concerning possible mistakes, which will be detailed in the Lessons Learned section of each paper. While teams reporting on their senior design or club projects are expected to be the main contributors to this journal, submissions based on individual student project reports will also be considered, provided that the sequence problem statement, conceptual and detailed design, prototyping, testing and implementation details are provided.
Readership
IJSPR readership includes undergraduate and graduate students, their educators, academic administrators, student project sponsors, organisers of student competitions, and so on.
Contents
IJSPR primarily publishes technical reports of student-conducted projects in all branches of engineering, computing science and computer-generated architecture. Special issues are also published with selections of reports from student competitions.

The international music industry is a multibillion-dollar enterprise that makes a few people a lot of money and lots of people very little. The companies seem to hold all the cards, taking the larger percentage of any profit that might be made. Independent songwriters and artists always struggled to reach the point where they might be compensated well for their work. Even the advent of streaming and download sites has not changed that much for the less well-known, where even a large number of "plays" on a streaming service might generate only a few dollars. One issue is the perhaps deliberately outdated and convoluted systems that manage music royalties. The system is outmoded and leads to delays, errors, and even financial losses for many. A new system described in the International Journal of Student Project Reporting might address some of the issues. Yichen Jiang and Stephanos Matsumoto of Olin College of Engineering, in Needham, Massachusetts, USA, and Thitipong Bisch of the University of Zurich, Switzerland, describe the Trustworthy and Auditable Royalty Processor (TARP), which uses blockchain technology [...]
