Soft Computing Journal (SCJ) also publishes extended abstracts as short papers in a rapid publication cycle on advances in the state-of-the-art of soft computing methods and applications. Both theoretical contributions (including new techniques, concepts, and analyses) and practical contributions (including system experiments and prototypes, and new applications) are encouraged.

An extended abstract should have 2-4 pages. Note that papers prepared in less than 2 pages, more than 4 pages, or out of the style of the journal, will be rejected. Moreover, papers that were already published with the same content or simultaneous submission of the same paper to other journals or conferences will not be considered for publication in our journal and will be immediately rejected. Authors who are less familiar with Persian or English languages are advised to seek assistance from proficient scholars to prepare manuscripts that are grammatically and linguistically free from errors.
