All fields of science and technology have made tremendous progress in the
past few decades which will continue to grow in the 21 st century. This
puts significant burden on existing routes for disseminating new research
developments. Present predominant publication models are based on
printed journals and restricted subscription-based access to their
published content. This considerably limits the speed at which the latest
research reaches interested scientists and the public, and most often it
means that by the time one reads an article, the presented data may
already be a few months old.

Thus there is increasing pressure to provide new and accelerated ways to
publish scientific and technological advances. The advent of internet has
brought a new dimension to scientific publishing and has the ability to
overcome the conventional publication and access hurdles by delivering
scientific results at a speed never before realised. We believe that to meet
demands of the new scientific world, internet-based publishing providing
free, immediate online open access to published material is the way
forward for the 21 st century.

With more and more publishers moving into open access publishing this
trend is likely to grow in the future making open access publishing a more
attractive proposition than journals that demand page charges yet have a
restricted subscriber readership.

In our publishing model:-

  • Authors pay a small charge – only a small fraction of what they
    spent on their research – for publishing in our journals.
  • We provide an immediate free access to published articles through
    the journal website and/or through a central electronic repository.
  • Anyone anywhere in the world is free to use, distribute and print
    reasonable number of copies of published articles for academic and
    non commercial purposes.

Why should authors pay publication charges?

Publishers are unable to recover costs involved in free-access publishing
that they would normally do through journal and article subscriptions.
Therefore, authors are asked to pay a small publication charge for
publishing in our journals. Our publication charges under the open access
publication model are not for profit, yet highly reasonable, and aim only to
make the publishing model self-sustainable and progressive. However, we
fully appreciate that not all authors may have adequate funds available to
pay for publication charges - in particular those from the DEVELOPING
NATIONS. Therefore, we offer considerable discount on publication charges
in such cases and, in exceptional cases, a complete waiver of publication
charges.

Please join us in our commitment to advancing latest scientific research to
every corner of the world and support us by sending your articles under
the open access publishing model.
