Guidelines for Authors

Manuscript Submission: Prepare and submit your manuscript per the detailed instructions.

The manuscript should follow the JE&AS format available from this link.

The manuscripts should present original work in the scope of the journal, must be exclusively submitted to this journal, must not have been published before, and must not be under consideration for publication elsewhere. The extended and expanded versions of papers published in conference proceedings can also be submitted with detailed descriptions of the additional parts. Three manuscripts are considered: regular, short, and survey/tutorial papers. 

Access And Charges: JE&AS is a broad-based, peer-reviewed, open-access journal that publishes original research of the most recent scientific importance. JE&AS aims to provide its authors an opportunity for the most rapid review and publication process with no fees to publish their articles. On the other hand, the vision of this group of journals is to provide free access to the journals without financial restrictions to readers using the open-access publication model. We strongly hope that both authors and readers throughout the globe will appreciate our goals of disseminating scientific research.

Page Limits: Regular papers are limited to 12 journal pages. Short papers are limited to 4 pages. For surveys/tutorial papers, contact the editor-in-chief in advance.

Highlights: Outlined are the key highlights, limited to 5 bullet points, each containing no more than 80 characters (including spaces). These succinctly encapsulate essential aspects of the work. The provided highlights are slated for a thorough review and subsequent publication.

Graphical Abstract Guidelines: Each article in JE&AS Journals requires a graphical abstract. Authors are requested to submit a single visual representation summarizing their work's main ideas and concepts. The dimensions for the graphical abstract should be 4.5 inches by 3 inches. Importantly, the visual should convey information without the inclusion of any textual description. This visual abstract is a concise and impactful snapshot of the article's key elements.

Conflict of Interest: All authors are requested to disclose any actual or potential conflict of interest or the lack of such.

Authors must acknowledge the support from any funding agency, and the authors have received permission from the funding agency if required.
