Aims & Scope

The Journal of Emerging Paradigms in Computing Systems (JEPCS) is a peer-reviewed, open-access scholarly journal that publishes high-quality theoretical, methodological, experimental, and applied research across contemporary and emerging areas of computing.

JEPCS provides an interdisciplinary platform for researchers, practitioners, and academics working on advances in computational methods, intelligent systems, computing infrastructures, architectures, networking technologies, software, data-driven systems, and next-generation computing environments. The journal particularly encourages research that integrates multiple computing disciplines or introduces new paradigms capable of addressing complex scientific, industrial, and societal challenges.

Areas of interest include, but are not limited to:

  • Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning
  • Generative AI and Large Language Models
  • Deep and Reinforcement Learning
  • Explainable, Trustworthy, and Responsible AI
  • Computer Networks and Communications
  • Wireless, Mobile, and 5G/6G Networks
  • Software-Defined Networking and Network Function Virtualization
  • Semantic and Intelligent Communications
  • Distributed and Parallel Computing
  • Cloud, Edge, Fog, and Continuum Computing
  • Mobile and Multi-access Edge Computing
  • High-Performance Computing
  • Cybersecurity, Privacy, and Secure Computing
  • Internet of Things and Cyber-Physical Systems
  • Digital Twins and Intelligent Digital Systems
  • Autonomous and Multi-Agent Systems
  • Data Science, Knowledge Systems, and Big Data Analytics
  • Software Systems and Software Engineering
  • Resource Allocation, Optimization, and Scheduling
  • Federated and Distributed Learning
  • Quantum and Emerging Computing Technologies
  • Human-Centered and Intelligent Computing
  • Sustainable and Green Computing
  • Multidisciplinary Applications of Computing Technologies

JEPCS welcomes research that advances fundamental computing concepts as well as work demonstrating meaningful applications of computing technologies in domains such as smart cities, healthcare, transportation, agriculture, industry, energy, education, communications, and environmental sustainability.

Types of Contributions

The journal considers:

  • Research Articles presenting substantial original contributions.
  • Review Articles critically synthesizing established and emerging research.
  • Survey Articles providing structured and comprehensive analysis of a research area.
  • Short Communications reporting concise but significant technical findings or emerging ideas.
  • Editorials addressing important developments, perspectives, and journal initiatives.

Evaluation Criteria

Manuscripts submitted to JEPCS should demonstrate a clear contribution to the computing literature. Depending on the nature of the work, submissions should provide appropriate methodological rigor, theoretical justification, experimental validation, simulation results, comparative evaluation, reproducibility information, or practical evidence supporting the reported conclusions.

The journal particularly values work that is original, technically sound, reproducible, interdisciplinary, and relevant to emerging directions in computing systems.
