Special issues

Call for Papers

The Journal of Telecommunications and Information Technology invites Guest Editors to participate in the process of preparing a Special Issue (SI) focusing on various current topics related to communications, networking and information technology. Each SI may serve as a platform promoting the exchange of knowledge and experience among researchers and practitioners specializing in the individual fields of science. The Guest Editors are responsible for promoting the SI using their own advertising channels, and for ensuring a proper balance between research- and application-oriented papers, as well as overview articles.

Important notes

SI proposals comprising a collection of papers originating from a single institution or country shall not be accepted. In order for a Special Issue proposal to be considered, at least 5 articles need to be submitted to the Editor-in-Chief for initial evaluation. Without the initial set of papers, the application will be rejected.

The Call for Papers will be published only after the SI proposal has been accepted.

All publications submitted will be subjected to a blind review process by the Guest Editors (two or three reviews per paper in each review round). Having completed the review, the Guest Editors will suggest whether to accept/reject the specific articles and will submit them to the JTIT Editor for final decision.

Important note! We would like to kindly inform you that in 2024 we will no longer accept applications because we have no more free publishing slots.

Below is the list of upcoming special issues in JTIT.

New technologies and services for cybersecurity opportunities and threats

The issue will focus on the threats to both the infrastructure of operators and service providers and to the services themselves in an era of increasing cybersecurity threats. The potential authors include employees of service providers and telecom infrastructure operators from many European countries, who perceive the security threat from their unique perspective. Therefore, a look at the threat landscape and methods of addressing it, including the development of generic solutions, will be the thematic and qualitative distinguishing factor of this special issue. The special issue is primarily addressed to participants of the 63rd FITCE (Federation of Telecommunications Engineers of the European Community) International Congress, which will take place on 26-28 September 2024 in Krakow, Poland. We also invite all authors who are not involved in the event to contribute to this special issue.

Topics covered in the Special Issue: 

• Artificial intelligence in cybersecurity,
• IoT security in the era of 5G,
• Automotive cybersecurity threats,
• Cloud security challenges and solutions,
• Building a security-aware culture,
• Regulatory and compliance challenges.
