IJCIS to Become Rolling Publication Journal from 2017

December 13th, 2016

The International Journal of Computational Intelligence Systems (IJCIS) is set to adopt a rolling publication principle (RPP) from 2017. RPP is a new publishing model in which final versions of articles (i.e. with pagination and complete citation information) are published and allocated to a rolling volume as and when they are ready (as opposed to waiting until a journal issue has been completed). With an increasing focus on online publishing, there is a growing need for innovative publication models which are geared towards individual articles instead of the print-based issue model. RPP means that final citation data is assigned on an article-by-article basis and decoupled from the compilation of the journal issue itself. Until now IJCIS published 6 issues per yearly volume (Volumes 3-9), but as a result of this switch the journal will publish one rolling volume consisting of a single issue per calendar year starting from 2017 (Volume 10).
