Submission Process

The International Journal of Computing, Engineering and Management (IJCEM) uses a fully online Editorial Management System (EMS) for manuscript submission and tracking. Follow the steps below:

01

Prepare Your Manuscript

Before submitting, ensure your manuscript is complete, original, and adheres to the journal's formatting guidelines. Download the Manuscript Template from our website and structure your work with all required sections: Title, Abstract, Keywords, Introduction, Methodology, Results and Discussion, Conclusion, and References. Ensure your manuscript is free of plagiarism and formatted using the journal's preferred reference style.

02

Draft a Cover Letter

Compose a cover letter addressed to the Editor-in-Chief, including: (1) A statement declaring the manuscript's originality and that it is not under consideration elsewhere, (2) A brief explanation of the manuscript's significance and alignment with the journal's scope, (3) Names, affiliations, and contact details of all co-authors, (4) Declaration of no conflict of interest.

03

Create Your Author Account

Register once at the IJCEM login portal as an Author and verify your email with the 6-digit OTP. After signing in, open Submit New Manuscript in your Author Dashboard to upload the Main Manuscript File (PDF/DOC/DOCX/ZIP, max 10 MB), supplementary files, co-author details, and your cover letter.

04

Instant Acknowledgment & Manuscript ID

As soon as the online form is submitted, the EMS generates a unique Manuscript ID (for example IJCEM-2026-0001) and stores your paper securely in the editorial database. The ID and live status are always visible in your Author Dashboard — no waiting for an email confirmation.

05

Double-Blind Peer Review via EMS

The Handling Editor screens your manuscript and forwards it to expert reviewers through the EMS. Reviewers accept the invitation, download the anonymised paper, and submit structured evaluation reports (scores, comments to the author, and a recommendation). You can watch each stage progress live in your dashboard.

06

Editorial Decision, Revision & Publication

The Editor issues the official decision in the EMS. If revision is requested, upload your revised manuscript plus a point-by-point response directly from your dashboard. Accepted articles proceed to proofreading, DOI assignment, and publication in the upcoming issue.

Need Assistance?

For any queries related to the submission process, please contact us at ijcem@rvit.edu.in or call +91-9951222238/68. We look forward to receiving your submissions and sharing your research with the global community through IJCEM.

Peer-Review Process

The International Journal of Computing, Engineering and Management (IJCEM) employs a rigorous and transparent double-blind peer review process to ensure the highest standards of academic and scientific integrity.

Double-Blind Review: Both reviewers and authors remain anonymous throughout the review process, ensuring unbiased evaluation based solely on the manuscript's merit.

1. Initial Screening

Upon receiving a manuscript, the editorial team performs a preliminary evaluation to ensure it aligns with the journal's scope and adheres to submission guidelines. Manuscripts are checked for plagiarism using specialized software. Submissions with high similarity indices or non-compliance with ethical standards may be rejected at this stage.

2. Reviewer Assignment

Manuscripts that pass the initial screening are assigned to two or more independent reviewers with expertise in the relevant field. The double-blind review process ensures anonymity: Reviewers do not know the identity of the authors, and authors do not know the identity of the reviewers.

3. Review Criteria

Reviewers evaluate the manuscript and provide detailed feedback on the strengths and weaknesses, suggesting improvements where necessary.

4. Review Outcomes

Based on reviewers' evaluations, the editorial team will communicate one of the following decisions: Accepted, Minor Revisions, Major Revisions, or Rejected. Authors will receive the reviewers' comments and recommendations along with clear instructions for revisions if applicable.

5. Revision and Resubmission

Authors must address all reviewer comments and submit a revised manuscript within the specified timeline. A detailed response document outlining how each comment was addressed should accompany the revised submission.

6. Final Review and Editorial Decision

Revised manuscripts undergo a final review to ensure that all reviewer suggestions have been adequately addressed. The editorial team makes the ultimate decision on publication based on reviewers' recommendations and the revised manuscript's quality.

7. Post-Acceptance

Accepted manuscripts are formatted and proofread for publication. Authors review the final proofs before publication.

Review Criteria

Reviewers evaluate manuscripts based on the following criteria:

Originality

Is the research novel and innovative? Does it contribute new knowledge to the field?

Scientific Rigor

Are the methods robust and appropriate for the study? Is the research methodology sound?

Relevance

Does the study align with the journal's scope and audience? Is it significant to the field?

Clarity

Is the manuscript well-organized and clearly written? Are arguments logical and coherent?

Ethical Compliance

Does the study adhere to ethical research guidelines and best practices?

Data Quality

Is the data presentation accurate, complete, and properly analyzed?

The peer review process at IJCEM is designed to uphold the journal's commitment to academic excellence, fostering a platform for high-quality research that contributes meaningfully to the global knowledge community.
