Article processing charge (APC)

The authors are expected to pay a publication charge for each paper, which covers the costs of the publishing process and will be processed following paper acceptance. The journal in general charges up to 1320 EUR/5400 PLN as a publication fee, which is calculated precisely depending on paper length.

The style of papers submitted to AMCS is determined by a special LaTeX class, which is described in detail in our Instructions for Authors.

Peer review

Papers submitted for possible publication in AMCS are initially evaluated by the editors with regard to their suitability for the journal. This refers most of all to the content and its scientific quality. Papers with insufficient contribution to our fields of interest and/or poor organisation and/or not prepared in the required style are rejected without delay so that the authors can improve or submit their work elsewhere. The manuscripts that are ultimately registered are submitted to 3-4 qualified, impartial reviewers for half-blind thorough scientific evaluation via the AMCS online editorial system. Papers are accepted unconditionally if the reviewers agree that they may be published in their present form. Otherwise, the reviews are forwarded to the authors for paper revision and comments on the reviewers' remarks. Paper revisions are submitted for re-review if requested by the reviewers or justified by the editors. The final decision on paper publication (accept/reject) is made by the editors and is not subject to appeal nor justification. The full review process takes approximately 4 months, but the editors do not set a deadline for the final decision. A general list of all reviewers for a given volume will be published on the journal website and in the closing issue. Details are available at https://www.amcs.uz.zgora.pl/?action=guide.

Publications ethics

The journal publishes only full-length research papers that are original and have not been submitted elsewhere. Also, we require that any and all contributions of institutions and/or individuals to the submitted work be clearly stated in the paper. Any cases of ghostwriting or guest authorship will be disclosed and properly reported. Additionally, we use the Similarity Check system for comprehensive manuscript screening, aimed to eliminate plagiarism and provide a high standard and quality peer-review process.
