Instructions for Authors

The International Journal of Innovative Research in Technology and Science (IJIRTS) is an international journal published bi-monthly by Revista Publication, India, since 2013, and it holds the online ISSN 2321-1156. We warmly welcome authors for submitting papers within the domains of Computer Science and Engineering, Information Technology, Electrical and Electronics Engineering, and Electronics and Telecommunication.

The Journal covers a wide spectrum of innovative research topics within these disciplines. All published papers undergo a rigorous peer-review process facilitated by international and competent researchers and scientists. Our review process employs a full, double-blind, international refereeing mechanism. Subsequently, papers are sent to reviewers for their evaluations, determining acceptance, acceptance with changes, resubmission with significant changes, or rejection.

For papers requiring modifications, the same reviewers are engaged to ensure the revised paper meets the required quality standards. The Editor-in-Chief reserves the right to refuse any manuscript, whether submitted on invitation or otherwise and may propose suggestions or modifications before publication.

Authors are invited to submit papers electronically for the regular issues of the Journal throughout the year at submit.IJIRTS@gmail.com. After a detailed review process, papers are promptly published online upon final acceptance. However, the assignment of the paper to a specific Volume or Issue of the Journal is deferred to the Editorial Board, and authors are duly informed.

For Theme-Based Special Issues, a time-bound Special Call for Papers will be announced, applicable only for that specific issue.

Submission of a paper implies that the work described has not been previously published (except in the form of an abstract or academic thesis) and is not under consideration elsewhere. All authors must consent to the paper’s submission. Once accepted, the authorities overseeing the work’s origin must refrain from publishing it elsewhere in the same form. Papers submitted to IJIRTS Journal / Revista Publication cannot be withdrawn unless ultimately rejected.

Manuscript Submission

Submission of a manuscript implies that the work described has not been published before; that it is not under consideration for publication anywhere else; that all co-authors have approved its research article, if any, as well as by the responsible authorities – tacitly or explicitly – at the institute where the work has been carried out. The publisher will not be held legally responsible should there be any compensation claims.

Permissions 
 Authors wishing to include figures, tables, or text passages that have already been published elsewhere are required to obtain permission from the copyright owner(s) for both the print and online format and to include evidence that such permission has been granted when submitting their papers. Any material received without such evidence will be assumed to originate from the authors.

Full-text papers in formats such as .doc, .pdf, and LaTeX are accepted and should be submitted via email to submit.IJIRTS@gmail.com using the IJIRTS Journal Paper Template.

5. Introduction:

State the objectives of the work and provide an adequate background with a detailed literature survey or a summary of the results.

A Theory Section should extend, not repeat, the information discussed in the Introduction. In contrast, a Calculation Section represents a practical development from a theoretical basis.

7. Result:

Results should be clear and concise.

8. Discussion:

This section should explore the importance of the results of the work, not repeat them. A combined Results and Discussion section is often appropriate.

9. Conclusion and Future Scope:

The main findings of the research may be presented in a short Conclusion Section. In this section, the author(s) should also briefly discuss the limitations of the research and the Future Scope for improvement.

10. Appendix:

If there are multiple appendices, they should be identified as A, B, etc. Formulae and equations in appendices should be given separate numbering: Eq. (A.1), Eq. (A.2), etc.; in a subsequent appendix, Eq. (B.1) and so on. Similar nomenclature should be followed for tables and figures: Table A.1; Fig. A.1, etc.

11. Acknowledgment:

If desired, authors may provide acknowledgements at the end of the article, before the references. The organizations/individuals who provided help during the research (e.g., providing language help, writing assistance, proofreading the article, sponsoring the research, etc.) may be acknowledged here.

12. References:

Citation in text - Ensure that every reference cited in the text is also present in the reference list (and vice versa). The references in the reference list should follow the standard IEEE reference style of the Journal and citation of a reference. Web references - The full URL and the date when the reference was last accessed should be given. Any further information should also be given if known (DOI, author names, dates, reference to a source publication, etc.). Web references can be listed separately (e.g., after the reference list) under a different heading if desired or can also be included in the reference list. Reference style - Indicate references by number(s) in square brackets in line with the text. The actual authors can be referred to, but the reference number(s) must always be given. Example: ‘….. as demonstrated [3,6]. Barnaby and Jones [8] obtained a different result ….’ List - Number the references (numbers in square brackets) in the list, according to the order in which they appear in the text. Example: [1] G. O. Young, “Synthetic structure of industrial plastics (Book style with paper title and editor),” in Plastics, 2nd ed. vol. 3, J. Peters, Ed. New York: McGraw-Hill, 1964, pp. 15–64.

Mathematical Formulae

Present formulae using the Equation editor in the line of standard text. Number consecutively any equations that have to be referred to in the text

Captions and Numbering for Figures and Tables

Ensure that each figure/table has been numbered and captioned—supply captions separately, not attached to the figure. A caption should comprise a brief title and a description of the illustration. Figures and tables should be numbered individually but consecutively by their appearance in the text.

Colour illustrations 

Online publication of colour illustrations is free of charge. There are no extra charges.
