Study on computer systems and applications are an important trend for future information technologies. The IJCSA is a refereed journal which is a forum for publication of current research in computer systems and applications. It is devoted to the publication of high-quality papers on theoretical developments in computer systems science, and corresponding applications in computer engineering and technology. The journal is targeted to be read by academics, scholars, educators, advanced students, practitioners, and those seeking an update on current status and future prospects in relation to all aspects computer science in general but specific to computer systems and applications. Original survey and review articles, short reviews and technical notes are invited for publication in this journal.
IJCSA includes the intense research activity that is being carried out in the systems field in both theoretical and practical hardware and software problems, together with the substantial amount of work being carried out within various areas. Papers that appear in IJCSA will tend either to present new theories, techniques and concepts or to report on experiences and experiments with actual systems. Insights useful to system designers, builders, and researchers will be emphasized. Among the topics within the scope of IJCSA are as the following:
Design of entire systems and system components
Storage management
Communication management
Information flow and management
Data organization and management
System-user interface
Reliability and Security
Implementation techniques
Performance models and analysis
Protocols and emerging standards
Fault tolerance and failure diagnosis
System verification
Novel applications
E-Science and E-Commerce applications
High Performance and convergence computing
Complex application workflows
Scientific, industrial and social implications
The research areas in IJCSA also cover traditional subjects such as: program and algorithm design, Artificial intelligence; Automata theory. Additionally, IJCSA also includes special issues covering specific topics in all areas of computer science in order to enlarge the scope of regular issues.
