Manuscript Submission Process

To submit a manuscript, authors must follow the instructions given below:

Types of Manuscripts

Research Articles:

Original research in the lab environment or field experience requires documentation which follows set of procedure results in research articles. These could be of full length papers, although authors are encouraged to make it concise as possible. Authors present research findings through documents with quality content and original illustrations.

Review Articles:

Authors present their research on a particular topic by searching other articles which could say secondary literature search. Ideally, the author searches for the topic from various sources and summarize them into a particular topic. It is a kind of search over the particular topic irrespective of own experimental findings.

Methodology Articles:

Research is always inconsistent in nature. It has been updated by incorporating advances in existing methods, test or procedure. Articles based on such research are called methodology articles. The method described may either be completely new, or may offer a better version of existing method.

It links the method with demonstrable advance on what is currently available. Articles should be described such a research which have been used well tested method, but not necessarily, used in a way that proves its value

The write up should not be more than 2500 words, and could include two figures or tables. It should have at least 8 references. Short communications are passed through peer review process.

Trends:

A Trends article is a brief description of timely topics. It highlights directions for research or practice. The write up should not be more than 2500 words and could include two figures or tables. It should have at least 8 references. Trends articles are by invitation only.

Case Study/ Case Reports:

Individual units such as a person, a group, and an event when followed by the thorough analysis is referred either case study or case report. It follows similar procedures for both social sciences and life sciences either descriptive or explanatory manner.

In medicine, a case report is a detailed report of the symptoms, signs, diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of an individual patient. Case reports may contain a demographic profile of the patient, but usually describe an unusual or novel occurrence.

Research Reports:

In an organization, an analyst makes research upon specific topics, a currency, commodity or fixed income instrument or even on a geographic region or country and prepares a final document which is referred as research report. The research report published by Cloud Journals will be available free of cost on open access basis.

Monographs:

A monograph is a work of writing upon a single subject, usually by a single author. It is often a scholarly essay or learned treatise, and may be released in the manner of a book or journal article.
