Journal of Computer Science & Systems Biology (JCSB), a broad-based journal was founded on two key tenets: To publish the most exciting researches with respect to the subjects of Applied Computer Science & Systems Biology. Secondly, to provide a rapid turn-around time possible for reviewing and publishing, and to disseminate the articles freely for research, teaching and reference purposes. |
| • |
Systems Biology is a sustaining and prolonging effort to discover and alter human knowledge and understand number of trends in bioscience research. It is a “field of study” as well as “the paradigm”. The former is the study of the interactions between the constituent element of biological systems, and how these acts or processes of interaction give rise to the function and behavioral conduct of that system. Later is about incorporating the “ systems science ” and the “ biological sciences”. Computer science is the canvas of the conjectural foundations of information and computation, and of interoperable techniques for their implementation and application in computer systems. |
| • |
JCSB under the open access category publishes peer-reviewed papers focusing on novel, cutting-edge research reports in computational and systems biology. JCSB aims to make a path between and merging the computer intelligence and bioinformatics. |
| • |
JCSB in Open Access category publishes innovational and germinal research papers with relevant case studies. The Open Access Journals are those which are freely available and accessible online to the reader. They neither have financial nor legal barriers. Specific accent stress is put on the use of computer science and systems biology on the path to improve life sciences. JCSB mainly consists of integrating biology, computations, innovative biologics and various technologies. |
| • |
The objective of JCSB is to provide a global forum for commuting results of germinal research thoughts and perceptions in both computer science and systems biology in the fields of biomedicine, computational science and healthcare. JCSB focuses on articles that report new and refreshing approaches of wide healthcare importance “in and with” the fields of support systems, medical and clinical diagnosis, data and knowledge mining, artificial intelligence and information technology. |
| • |
JCSB is using online manuscript submission, review and tracking systems of Editorial Manager® for quality and quick review processing. Review processing is performed by the editorial board members of JCSB or outside experts; at least two independent reviewers approval followed by editor approval is required for acceptance of any citable manuscript. |
| • |
JCSB promotes the scientific knowledge helps the readers by advance research and education in the upcoming field of computer science and systems biology to quest for high-impact synergy with industrial companies handling biomedical, biochemical, pharmaceutical, clinical and bioinformatics research. |
| • |
OMICS Publishing Group is ardent to open access. We strongly believe that removing barriers to research published online will greatly aid to the progress in omics scientific and technical disciplines. |
| • |
JCSB will keep up to date with latest advances in the field and papers published in JCSB will reach the readers directly by email for free of cost. |
| • |
Distributed widely through the Internet. |
| • |
Archived online in the transactions of the OMICS Publishing Group, which provides the international scientific community with immediate and permanent access to individual papers. |
| • |
JCSB accepts online letters to the editors, brief comments that contribute to the previously published articles or other relevant findings in systems biology. |
| • |
Open Access is a publication model that enables the dissemination of research articles to the global community without restriction usually through the internet. Thus, all articles published under open access can be accessed by anyone with internet connection. JCSB strongly supports the Open Access initiative. Abstracts and full texts (HTML, PDF and XML format) of all articles published by JCSB are freely accessible to everyone immediately after publication. |

Definition of Open Access Publication |
| • |
An Open Access Publication is one that meets the following two conditions: |
|
The author(s) and copyright holder(s) grant(s) to all users a free, irrevocable, worldwide, perpetual right of access to, and a license to copy, use, distribute, transmit and display the work publicly and to make and distribute derivative works, in any digital medium for any responsible purpose, subject to proper attribution of authorship, as well as the right to make small numbers of printed copies for their personal use. |
|
A complete version of the work and all supplemental materials, including a copy of the permission as stated above, in a suitable standard electronic format is deposited immediately upon initial publication in at least one online repository that is supported by an academic institution, scholarly society, government agency, or other well-established organization that seeks to enable open access, unrestricted distribution, interoperability, and long-term archiving (for the biomedical sciences, PubMed Central is such a repository) |
|
Notes: |
| • |
Open access is a property of individual works! |
| • |
Community standards, rather than copyright law, will continue to provide the mechanism for enforcement of proper attribution and responsible use of the published work, as they do now. |
