We are pleased to inform you that Springer’s SN Computer Science Journal has approved the topical/special issue proposal titled “Frugal, Sovereign, and Human-Centered AI”.
High-quality papers from BRAINCON 2026 will be invited for submission to this prestigious special issue. We expect a thorough and competitive paper review and selection process to ensure that only high-quality papers are accepted for publication.
Submission & Review Process
- The peer-review process will be handled via the Editorial Manager (EM) submission portal.
- All manuscripts reporting primary research will be peer-reviewed by at least 2 competent reviewers to ensure validity and lack of bias.
- Papers must fall strictly within the scope of the Topical Issue.
- There is no word/page limit in the journal.
- Manuscripts can be submitted in Word or LaTeX formats.
Important Guidelines for Guest Editors & Authors
- Conflicts of Interest: Editors must disclose any financial or non-financial interests that may influence their decisions. Editorial Board members are not involved in the decision-making process for manuscripts they have authored.
- Peer Review Integrity: Reviews should provide constructive critical evaluations, particularly regarding methodology, results accuracy, and conclusions. Editorial decisions will be based on these substantive criteria.
- Libelous Content: Editors are expected to seek advice if a manuscript contains potentially libelous or defamatory content.
The Topical Issue aims to include a balanced set of authors from different organizations and countries to foster global research collaboration.
