IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics (TVCG) has published more papers in 2013 than in any previous year. TVCG continues to be in an excellent state. For the first time, the entire proceedings of IEEE VAST 2013 papers became part of the VIS special issue of TVCG. At the start of October 2013, TVCG had received more than 265 regular submissions, more than last year at the same time. This year we also observed a healthy number of 150 and 402 submissions to the IEEE VR Conference issue and the VIS conference issue that contains the Proceedings of the IEEE Information Visualization, Scientific Visualization, and Visual Analytics Science and Technology 2013 Conferences, respectively. We are expecting a total of nearly 900 submissions to TVCG by the end of 2013. A total of 137 articles were published in the first 10 regular issues with 1,769 printed pages, and the VR and VIS special issues containing 21 and 101 conference papers, respectively. All submissions in both special issues went through a rigorous two-round journalquality review process. Practically all the 2012 papers have also been decided. From the 293 regular submissions (including 20 extended versions of Best Papers from several top venues in graphics and visualization), 76 regular papers and all 20 special section papers were eventually accepted; 86 out of 333 SciVis plus InfoVis conference submissions were published in the VIS special issue. TVCG continues to offer authors a remarkably effi cient processing of submitted manuscripts: The average time from submission to fi rst decision is about three months and the average time from submission to publication as a preprint in the digital library is about seven months. Its 2012 impact factor is 1.895 with the largest number of total publications appeared two years prior. During 2013, the authors of TVCG regular papers were invited to give an oral presentation of their recent work at TVCG���s partner conferences. A total of 35 TVCG papers were presented at the IEEE Virtual Reality Conference, ACM SIGGRAPH Symposium on Interactive 3D Graphics and Games, ACM SIGGRAPH/Eurographics Symposium on Computer Animation, Pacifi c Graphics, and IEEE VIS 2013.
