Computer Science Journal of Moldova
(ISSN 1561-4042, E-ISSN 2587-4330, DOI prefix: doi.org/10.56415)

The "Computer Science Journal of Moldova" (CSJM) has been published since 1993. It is a single-blind peer-reviewed international journal. The Editorial Board consists of 23 world-recognized researchers, 15 of them being from 9 foreign countries and 8 – from Moldova.

The Vladimir Andrunachievici Institute of Mathematics and Computer Science of Moldova is the publisher for CSJM (holder of publisher rights).

The journal’s issues are published regularly three times a year: in April, August, and December.

Aims and Scope. We aim to bring important research work in the Computer Science domain to a wide international audience.

Fields of research. The journal publishes original research articles and short communications on Computer System Organization, Software, Theory of Data, Theory of Computing, Computing Methodologies and Applications, Discrete Mathematics (concerning Computer Science), Operations Research and Management Science (concerning Computer Science), Artificial Intelligence, and related topics.

Reviews of new monographs, abstracts of dissertations, and chronicles of scientific events are also published. The editorial board of the journal will temporarily not accept survey articles for publication, since a decent survey requires a large volume. However, recently the editorial office of our journal has received a large number of articles, and the volume of the printed version and format of the journal does not allow for publishing lengthy articles, including surveys.

Submission. Papers are submitted taking into consideration that the subject matter has not been previously published and is not being submitted elsewhere.

The subject of research in the submitted article should correspond to the subject of the journal (see above).

The submitted papers should be presented to the Editorial Board in the form according to the requirements of the journal (see Instructions for Authors).

If the submitted article meets all the requirements of the journal, it is considered “accepted for consideration”. In this case, the authors are notified about this, and the Editorial Board asks them to send a "Copyright Transfer Form" (CTF) where all the co-authors are indicated and which is signed by at least one of the co-authors (the corresponding author). After receiving the signed CTF, the manuscript is sent to reviewers for analysis.

In order to provide access to the publication of articles in CSJM for more authors, two and more articles of the same author are not accepted for consideration at the same time and are not published within one year.

We also do not publish articles by the same author in the same issue (even if they are with different co-authors).

Plagiarism in Manuscripts. Submitted manuscripts that are found to contain plagiarized text are rejected. Manuscripts are verified using plagiarism detection software to find out the overlaps. CSJM allows an overall similarity of 10% for a manuscript to be considered for publication.

Copyrights. The "Computer Science Journal of Moldova" retains the copyright to the published works. The main condition for the submitted manuscript publication is that it has not been published anywhere and will not be simultaneously submitted elsewhere. The authors are allowed to incorporate the article into one or more collective works and to reproduce the article as incorporated in collective works as long as the original work is properly cited.

The "Computer Science Journal of Moldova", after obtaining the signed CTF, becomes the copyright holder of the submitted manuscript.

All manuscripts go through a two-step review process:

  1. Internal Review. Each manuscript is evaluated by Editorial Board (as a preliminary condition of acceptance) for the purpose of meeting the basic requirements of the journal, that it is of sufficient quality to merit external review, and attempts of plagiarism. Manuscripts that do not meet these requirements are not sent out for further review.
  2. External Review. Submissions that meet the basic requirements are then sent out for single-blind peer-review by experts in the field. Following the external review, the authors are sent copies of the external reviewers’ comments and are notified as to the decision (accept as is, accept pending changes, revise and resubmit, or reject).

The language of publication is English. Publication of papers is free-of-charge.

Authors are strongly recommended to have their manuscripts proofread by an editor familiar with English academic prose. Both American and British English spelling conventions are acceptable. Authors are responsible for the accuracy of all references and citations.
