Open Access Policy
The International Journal of Informatics Knowledge Pattern and Applications (IJIKPA) is committed to promoting the dissemination of knowledge by providing open access to all its published content. Our open access policy is guided by the following principles:
- Free and Immediate Access: All articles published in IJIKPA are freely accessible to everyone immediately upon publication. There are no subscription fees or paywalls, ensuring that researchers, practitioners, educators, and the general public can access and benefit from the latest research findings without any financial barriers.
- Creative Commons Licensing: Articles are published under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0) license. This allows authors to retain copyright while granting others the right to freely use, distribute, and reproduce the work, provided the original author and source are properly cited. This license promotes the wide dissemination and use of research, facilitating greater visibility and impact.
- Author Rights: Authors retain the copyright of their work and have the freedom to share their published articles on personal or institutional websites, repositories, and other platforms. This ensures that authors can disseminate their research widely and fulfill any requirements for open access mandates by funding agencies.
- No Article Processing Charges (APCs): IJIKPA does not charge any fees for article submission, processing, or publication. We believe that the financial cost should not be a barrier to the publication and dissemination of high-quality research.
- Archiving and Preservation: To ensure the long-term accessibility of published content, IJIKPA employs digital archiving practices. All articles are stored in trusted digital repositories and are indexed in major academic databases, guaranteeing their preservation and continued availability to the academic community and beyond.
- Ethical Publishing Practices: IJIKPA adheres to the highest standards of ethical publishing. We follow guidelines established by the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) to ensure the integrity and quality of the research we publish. All submitted manuscripts undergo a rigorous peer review process to maintain the scholarly value of our journal.
By adopting an open access policy, IJIKPA aims to remove barriers to knowledge sharing, enhance the visibility and impact of research, and support the global academic community in advancing the fields of informatics, knowledge management, and pattern recognition.
