Important Announcement Regarding Scopus Indexing Status

Dear Authors, Reviewers, and Readers,

We are writing to share an important and transparent update regarding the indexing status of the Iraqi Journal for Computer Science and Mathematics (IJCSM).

Following a recent re-evaluation by the Scopus Content Selection and Advisory Board (CSAB), IJCSM is no longer indexed in Scopus.

We understand that this news is important to our research community, and we want to clarify exactly what this means for both past and future submissions:

  • For Previously Published Papers: All articles published and successfully indexed in Scopus prior to this decision will remain permanently indexed in the Scopus database. Their citation tracking and inclusion in the database are not affected.
  • For Future Submissions and New Papers: Moving forward, any newly accepted or published papers will not be indexed in Scopus.
Our Next Steps and Continuous Commitment

While this marks a transition period for the journal, our core mission remains unchanged. IJCSM continues to operate as a peer-reviewed, open-access platform committed to publishing high-quality research in computer science and mathematics. We are actively refining our editorial workflows and internal policies to meet the highest global standards of publication ethics.

All newly published articles will continue to receive permanent Digital Object Identifiers (DOIs) via Crossref and will be fully indexed in Google Scholar and other digital repositories. Our team is dedicated to addressing the feedback received during the evaluation process to pave the way for future re-application to international indexing bodies.

We deeply appreciate your continued support, trust, and contributions to our scientific community.

Sincerely,

The Editorial Board
Iraqi Journal for Computer Science and Mathematics (IJCSM)
