Submission Preparation Checklist

As part of the submission process, authors are required to check off their submission's compliance with all of the following items, and submissions may be returned to authors that do not adhere to these guidelines.
  • The submission has not been previously published, nor is it before another journal for consideration (or an explanation has been provided in Comments to the Editor).
  • The submission file is in OpenOffice, Microsoft Word, RTF or PDF document file format.
  • Where available, URLs for the references have been provided.
  • The text is single-spaced; uses a 12-point font; employs italics, rather than underlining (except with URL addresses); and all illustrations, figures, and tables are placed within the text at the appropriate points, rather than at the end. The lengthy mathematical proofs and programing languages codes can be placed at the end after references in appendix.
  • The text adheres to the stylistic and bibliographic requirements outlined in the Author Guidelines.

Author Guidelines

Submission of Manuscripts:

Authors may submit any paper on the understanding that the work has not been published before and has been read and approved by all authors. The submission of a manuscript by the authors implies that the authors automatically agree to assign exclusive copyright to Science Impact Publishers if and when the manuscript is accepted for publication. The paper should be submitted in PDF or MS Word formats. All manuscripts should be submitted online at

http://www.scienceimpactpub.com/journals/index.php/IJSDS/about/submissions/.

Please do not submit your paper directly to the publisher. The publisher does not acknowledge or forward articles to the Editorial Board.

Preparation of Manuscripts:

1. Authors should prepare manuscripts in LaTeX or MS Word format. Tables and Figures should be inserted in the text, rather than collated at the end of the paper or attaching as appendix. 
2. The title should reflect the contents of the manuscript and the abstract should be concise and descriptive. The name(s) of the author(s) along with the affiliation should be just below the title of the paper. The email address(es) of the author(s) should be placed at the end of the affiliation.
3. Displayed equations should be referenced and numbered consecutively by sections in the right margin. Footnotes are not allowed.
4. A short list of Keywords and phrases along with appropriate Mathematics Subject Classification (MSC) codes should be provided.
5. Bibliographic references should be numbered and listed at the end of the article.
6. Accepted manuscripts must be typed in LaTeX format as per the formatting requirments of IJDSS according to the LaTex Template. Here you can download a sample file named ijdss-sample.zip. After download, unzip it and keep ijdss-template.tex and ijdss.sty in the same folder for it to work.  

Indicative Review Processing Time
Normally the review process of submitted papers takes around three months. However, this is an indicative time as the actual time depends on the promptness of the reviewers. We encourage authors to help providing the name and email contact of four independent potential reviewers to speed up the review process.

Publication Cost
Initially there is no page charges for publication in IJSDS.
