Authors submitting manuscripts to Quantica: International Journal of Applied and Computational Intelligence (QIJACI) are expected to ensure that their submissions are complete, well-structured, and linguistically accurate. Manuscripts should be carefully reviewed for clarity, grammar, and typographical accuracy prior to submission.
Online Submission Process
Manuscripts must be submitted through the journal’s online submission system (link to be provided on the official website). Authors are required to follow the steps outlined below:
Access the “Submit Manuscript” section and upload all required files as per the instructions
New users must complete the registration process before submitting a manuscript
Returning users may log in using their existing credentials
Ensure that all editable source files (e.g., Word documents, figures, tables) are included at the time of submission
Incomplete submissions may result in delays during review or processing
Upon successful submission, authors will receive an automated confirmation email containing a unique manuscript identification number, which should be used for all future correspondence.
Review and Decision Process
All submitted manuscripts undergo a structured evaluation process:
Initial Screening:
The editorial team reviews each submission to verify its relevance to the journal’s scope and its overall quality. Manuscripts that do not meet basic standards or contain significant language issues may be declined at this stage.
Peer Review:
Submissions that pass the initial screening are sent for a double-blind peer-review process, typically involving at least two independent reviewers.
Editorial Decision:
Based on reviewers’ comments, the editor may issue one of the following decisions:
Acceptance
Minor Revision
Major Revision
Rejection
Revision Process:
If revisions are requested, authors will receive detailed feedback. Revised manuscripts must be resubmitted within the specified timeframe. Failure to do so may lead to withdrawal of the submission.
(Optional: The journal may provide language editing and formatting support services to assist authors in improving manuscript quality.)

Authors will receive an official acceptance notification via email
The manuscript will undergo final proofreading and formatting
The final version of the article will be published online under the journal’s open-access model
