 We were surprised to see the following on the ScholarOne webpage:

*ATTENTION: * *The Transactions on Emerging Topics in Computing is an Open
Access only publication.*  

 New Open Access Pricing:

$1,350 12 or fewer published pages
$200 Per page 12+ published pages


Open Access (OA) provides unrestricted access to peer-reviewed journal
articles via the Internet. In lieu of paid subscriptions, authors are
required to pay a publication fee after their paper has been accepted.

This is unfortunate that journals (specifically IEEE ones) are asking the
authors to pay such a high fee for having their work published.
