SIC welcomes original contributions on all aspects of research and practice in IT. Authors should not submit to SIC material that is under consideration elsewhere. Papers should preferably not exceed 15 standard typewritten pages. However, while concision improves chances of publication, serious consideration will be given to articles in which the nature and quality of the content justify greater length. Articles should be sent if possible in disk form, accompanied by two printouts and a cover letter signed by the (principal) author to the following address: National Institute for R&D in Informatics, Publishing Department, 8-10 Averescu Blvd., Bucharest, 011455, Romania.

Typesetting a SIC document using Word. Please use the following sample file to correctly typeset a submission to Studies in Informatics and Control Journal.

We always acknowledge receipt of contributions submitted to us. After a preliminary triage to eliminate submissions that are unsuitable for the SIC journal, the remaining science-based papers, will enter a review process which typically takes 4-6 weeks from the time we acknowledge the receipt of the paper. Following the confirmation to the corresponding author of acceptance for publication of the submitted article (presumably sent as a hard copy), a quick editing and printing work would be possible if agreed to provide a soft copy, on diskette or via e-mail, under Windows (Microsoft Word 2003).

It is a condition of publication in SIC that authors grant an exclusive licence to the Journal, which is operated on the Journal's behalf by the Publisher, by completing a copyright licence form. This ensures that requests from third parties to reproduce articles are handled efficiently and consistently and will also allow the article to be as widely disseminated as possible. When an article is published, a PDF of the final version is emailed to the corresponding author. It is the author's responsibility to obtain permission to reproduce verbal or visual material from copyright sources.
