BUJICT manuscript types and submission guidelines are as follows:

• Regular paper – 10 pages (including reasonably-sized figures and references)
• Short paper – 3 pages (including reasonably-sized figures and references)
• Tutorial/Survey Paper – 15 pages (including reasonably-sized figures and references)
• Special Issue Paper (consent of the special issue editor)

Submissions must include all of the following elements: title of the paper, abstract, index terms, illustrations, and bibliography. References should adhere to the specific standards, which have already been defined in the template of BUJICT. Figures and tables must be sized as they are to appear in print. Figures should be placed exactly where they are to appear within the text. Figures not correctly sized will be returned to the author for reformatting. All papers have to be submitted by online service: http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=bujict2008

Preliminary Published/Conference Version(s):

If any portion of your submission has appeared or will appear in a conference or workshop, you should inform us of this and make sure that the submission references the conference publication and supply a copy of the conference paper to us. Also, please provide a brief description of the differences between the submitted manuscript and the preliminary paper.
Please be aware that editors and reviewers are required to check the submitted manuscript to determine whether a sufficient amount of new material has been added to warrant publication in BUJICT. Our one of the key requirements is that authors should only submit original work that has neither appeared elsewhere for publication, nor which is under review for another refereed publication. If authors have used their own previously published material as a basis for a new submission, they are required to cite the previous work(s) and very clearly indicate how the new submission offers substantively novel or different contributions beyond those of the previously published work(s). Any manuscript not meeting this criterion will be rejected. Copies of any previous published work affiliated with the new submission must also be included as supportive documentation upon submission.

Concurrent Submission:

All submissions must represent original and novel material. We discourage submitting to more than one publication at one time. If it is determined that a paper has already appeared in anything more than a conference proceedings, or appears in or will appear in a submission to any other publication before the editorial process is completed, the paper will be automatically rejected and respective author (s) would be banned for any further submission in future.

Review Process:

The length of the review process may vary between papers, and many factors affect the time it takes to review a paper. The time it takes for an Associate Editor to be assigned and for qualified referees to be located who are available to handle the review of a paper depends on the complexity and the type of material submitted for review. BUJICT makes a concerted effort to keep the review time to a minimum that is consistent with keeping BUJICT’s reputation for quality and integrity. Each submission placed into review is sent to at least two reviewers, making one submission correspond to roughly two review requests. Based on this information, the review process may take approximately three to six months to be completed.
