DOAJ is a membership organisation and membership is available in 3 main categories: Publisher, Ordinary Member and Sponsor. A DOAJ Membership is a clear statement of intent and proves a commitment to quality, peer-reviewed open access. DOAJ is co-author to the Principles of Transparency and Best Practice in Scholarly Publishing (Principles) and DOAJ members are expected to follow these principles as a condition of membership. DOAJ reserves the right to reject applications for membership, or revoke membership if a member or sponsor is found to contravene the Principles. Read more about membership here.
DOAJ is a community-curated list of open access journals and aims to be the starting point for all information searches for quality, peer reviewed open access material. To assist libraries and indexers keep their lists up-to-date, we make public a list of journals that have been accepted into or removed from DOAJ but we will not discuss specific details of an application with anyone apart from the applicant. Neither will we discuss individual publishers or applications with members of the public unless we believe that, by doing so, we will be making a positive contribution to the open access community.
DOAJ publishes Information for Publishers on this site to help Publishers adhere to the Principles and to assist them in completing an application. DOAJ also publishes a list of FAQs relevant to all members of the publishing community, particularly libraries and authors. All information on this site is available to both members and non-members.
Aims & Scope
The aim of the DOAJ is to increase the visibility and ease of use of open access scientific and scholarly journals, thereby promoting their increased usage and impact. The DOAJ aims to be comprehensive and cover all open access scientific and scholarly journals that use a quality control system to guarantee the content. In short, the DOAJ aims to be the one-stop shop for users of open access journals.

A tal fine, in questo scritto si propone una metodologia di analisi che permetta di
Analisi dei cicli del mercato immobiliare: un applicazione sui dati italiani
Utilizzando i dati italiani, sulla base dell'approccio teorico del ciclo "a nido d'ape" proposto da Janssen, Kruijt e Needham nel 1994, questo articolo propone un ulteriore contributo allo studio delle
dinamiche del mercato immobiliare italiano.
Utilizzando alcuni indicatori del mercato, si presentano i grafici del ciclo a nido d'ape per tutte le regioni e per le principali città. Tecniche di cluster analysis sono utilizzate per raggruppare le regioni che mostrano andamenti simili.

La trasformazione dal DATUM catastale ai DATUM Roma 1940 e ETRF2000
Nell’articolo verrà esposta una procedura geodetica di trasformazione dal DATUM catastale, verso il DATUM Roma 1940 oltre che ETRF2000, messa a punto presso il Politecnico di Torino – DIATI. Essa è stata applicata nella Regione Piemonte, realtà particolarmente complessa per la consistente presenza di sistemi d’asse di piccola estensione (circa 540), dopo una sperimentazione eseguita nell’ambito di una collaborazione scientifica tra l’Agenzia del Territorio e il Politecnico di Torino – DIATI e in base ad un accordo
tra Politecnico di Torino, Regione Piemonte e CSI Piemonte.
