New home for Electronic Journal of Probability and Electronic Communications in Probability

The Electronic Journal of Probability (EJP) and Electronic Communications in Probability (ECP) are electronic journals, jointly sponsored by the IMS and the Bernoulli Society. These journals have a new online home.

Since their inception in 1995, the content of EJP and ECP has been freely available to individuals. Until recently, the published versions of the journals were hosted on servers at the Department of Mathematics, University of Washington. Due to computing environment changes at UW and editorial management needs associated with continued growth of the journals, the contents have recently migrated to new websites at http://ejp.ejpecp.org/ and http://ecp.ejpecp.org/ (the old websites automatically forward to these sites).

The servers for these sites are maintained by the Public Knowledge Project (PKP) at Simon Fraser University in Canada. PKP is also the provider of the open source software (OJS) used for editorial management and publishing of the journals. The IMS and the Bernoulli Society are sharing the modest costs.

We encourage you to visit the new websites, to consider submitting an article to EJP or ECP, and ask you to please consider making a donation to the open access fund in support of our open access journals.
