Indexing

Google Scholar is a free online search engine designed to index scholarly content such as journal articles, theses, books, conference proceedings, and patents. It offers wide-ranging access to academic literature across multiple fields and sources. Notable features include citation tracking and research metrics, making it a valuable resource for locating academic work and assessing its influence and significance within the scholarly community.

Open Access refers to the free, immediate, and unrestricted online availability of scholarly research. It allows users to read, download, share, and reuse academic content without financial, legal, or technical barriers. Open Access enhances the visibility, accessibility, and impact of research by making it available to a wider audience, including researchers, students, professionals, and the general public. It plays a crucial role in promoting knowledge sharing and accelerating scientific and academic progress across disciplines.

An ISSN (International Standard Serial Number) is an eight-digit code used to uniquely identify serial publications such as journals, magazines, and periodicals. It serves as a standardized identifier that simplifies cataloging, referencing, and database management. Each ISSN is specific to a particular format (print or online) of a publication and helps libraries, researchers, and indexing services accurately track and access serial content. The ISSN system enhances the visibility and discoverability of academic and professional publications worldwide.

The Crossref DOI (Digital Object Identifier) is a unique alphanumeric string assigned to scholarly content, such as journal articles, books, and conference papers, that is registered through Crossref, an official DOI registration agency. AIJEIC has a DOI Prefix "doi.org/10.63056". It provides a permanent and reliable link to digital content, ensuring easy citation, access, and long-term preservation. By using DOIs, researchers and publishers can enhance the discoverability, accessibility, and citation tracking of academic work. Crossref DOIs are widely used in academic publishing to maintain the integrity and connectivity of scholarly communication.
