Author Guidelines

The Journal of Applied Mathematics and Modelling (JAMM) welcomes high-quality original research and review articles in applied mathematics and mathematical modeling. All authors must adhere to the following Author Guidelines to ensure a smooth submission and publication process.

1. Submission and Review Process

1.1. Online Submission via OJS

✅ All manuscripts must be submitted through the Open Journal Systems (OJS) 3.3 platform:

Submission Portal: https://ejournal.cibnusantara.org/index.php/jamm

✅ Authors must register and create an account before submitting their manuscript.

✅Submission Checklist (all items must be completed):

  • The manuscript follows JAMM’s formatting and structure requirements (see JAMM Template).
  • The submission is original, unpublished, and not under review elsewhere.
  • The manuscript is in English
  • All authors have agreed to the submission and declare no conflicts of interest.
  • Figures, tables, and equations are correctly formatted.
  • Ethical approval (if applicable) is included.

1.2. Peer Review and Editorial Process

JAMM follows a double-blind peer review process:

Step 1: Initial Editorial Screening

  • The editorial team checks the manuscript’s scope, formatting, and originality.
  • Plagiarism is screened using Turnitin (maximum similarity allowed: 30%).
  • Manuscripts failing this stage are desk rejected.

Step 2: Assignment to Reviewers

  • Two or more independent experts review the manuscript.
  • Reviewers provide detailed feedback within 4-6 weeks.

Step 3: Editorial Decision

  • Accepted (minor/no revisions).
  • Revisions Required (major/minor).
  • Rejected (not suitable for JAMM).

Step 4: Revision & Final Decision

  • Authors must submit a point-by-point response to reviewer comments.
  • Revised manuscripts undergo re-evaluation before final acceptance.

Step 5: Copyediting & Publication

  • Accepted papers undergo copyediting and formatting.
  • Articles are assigned a DOI and published in the next available issue.

3. Manuscript Formatting & Structure

3.1. Title Page

✔Title: Concise, informative, ≤20 words.

✔Author Information: Full names, affiliations, and ORCID (if available).

✔Corresponding Author: Name, email, and phone number.

3.2. Abstract & Keywords

✔Abstract (200-300 words):

  • Background research
  • Objective – Purpose of the study.
  • Methods – Key mathematical techniques used.
  • Results – Main findings.
  • Conclusion – Key insights and implications.

✔Keywords: about 5 words relevant to manuscript

3.3. Main Text

Manuscripts should follow this structured format:

1️⃣Introduction – Background, problem statement, and research objectives.

2️⃣Methods – Mathematical modeling, algorithms, and experimental setup.

3️⃣Results – Analysis, figures, and tables.

4️⃣Discussion – Interpretation of results, implications, and limitations.

5️⃣Conclusion – Summary of findings and future directions.

3.4. Figures, Tables, and Equations

✔Figures: High resolution (300 dpi minimum). Labeled sequentially (e.g., Figure 1).

✔Tables: Simple format with no vertical lines.

✔Equations: Use LaTeX or MathType, numbered sequentially (e.g., Eq. 1).

3.5. References

  • The bibliography is a system for writing citations/excerpts of a manuscript or literature using the American Psychological Association (APA) 7th Edition Style.
  • A Minimum of 15 references for each article, 80% are primary references such as journal articles, conference proceedings, and thesis/dissertation.
  • The references must be last 10 years, except for some references that coin theories or findings
  • The authors are highly encouraged to use reference managers such as Mendeley, Zotero, EndNote, and others

4. Ethical Guidelines

JAMM follows COPE Core Practices for ethical publishing. Authors must:

✔Ensure originality – Plagiarism >30% will result in immediate rejection.

✔Disclose conflicts of interest – Funding sources and affiliations must be declared.

✔Avoid duplicate submissions – Submitting to multiple journals simultaneously is unethical.

✔Ensure research integrity – Fabrication or manipulation of data will lead to retraction.

Ethical approval must be stated if the study involves human or animal subjects.

5. Open Access & Copyright Policy

✔Open Access Policy: JAMM follows the Budapest Open Access Initiative (BOAI). All articles are freely available to the public.

✔License & Copyright:

  • Published under Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 (CC BY 4.0).
  • Authors retain copyright and can share their work in repositories.

6. Submission Process Overview
