Applied Computing and Informatics is an open access, peer-reviewed scholarly journal, focusing on the knowledge and use of IT applications. The journal serves a forum for both applied and theoretical understanding and encourages submissions from both within and beyond academia.
Aims and scope
When submitting a manuscript, authors will be taken to a service called Paperpal Preflight, an AI-driven tool that checks manuscripts against the journal’s author guidelines. Authors are free to use or bypass this step and submit directly to ScholarOne.

Applied Computing and Informatics (ACI) aims to timely disseminate leading-edge knowledge to researchers, practitioners, and academics interested in the latest developments in applied computing and information systems concepts, strategies, practices, tools, and technologies. In particular, the journal encourages research studies that significantly contribute to the continuous development and improvement of IT practices worldwide.

The journal attempts to bridge the gap between the academic and industrial communities and, therefore, welcomes theoretically grounded, methodologically sound research studies that address various IT-related problems and innovations of an applied nature. The journal will serve as a forum for practitioners, researchers, managers, and IT policymakers to share their knowledge and experience in the design, development, implementation, management, and evaluation of various IT applications.

Contributions should deal with one or more of the following subjects:

Applied Artificial Intelligence (AI)
Machine Learning and Deep Learning
Big Data and Data Analytics
Digital transformation
Internet of Things (IoT) Applications
Applied Networking and Sensors
Software Engineering Techniques and Tools
Ethical in AI
Databases and web technologies
Applied Cybersecurity
Health Informatics
Neural Networks Applications
Applied Intelligent Systems and Autonomous robotics
Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and User Interface (UI)
Cloud Computing
The articles submitted for publication in ACI need to be a coherent and fluent expression of the findings of authors’ research or review, as the case may be. The papers published in ACI are clearly focused towards the IT-related aspects of applied research or review.

Repetition needs to be avoided and citations should be used rather than to describe the earlier published findings. The introduction concisely introduces the background and takes stock of recent research published in quality journals. Focus remains on discussion enriched by quality citations. The conclusion is merely a take-home message for the reader rather than a repetition of the results.

The papers by non-native English-speaking authors should be language edited by professional language editors, as appropriate.
