Journal Information

ParadigmPlus is a peer-reviewed journal published by the ITI Research Group1 in collaboration with
Science Based Platforms for a global audience of professionals in computer science interested in dis-
seminating computer-based research in all knowledge areas.

empirical, conceptual, and experimental results in all areas of computer science. The journal will
address (but will not limit itself to the following areas: Algorithms and Analysis of Algorithms, Arti-
ficial Intelligence, Bioinformatics, Business Analytics, Brain-Computer Interface, Cloud Computing,
Computer-Aided Design, Computer Architecture, Computer Vision, Cryptography, Data Analysis,
Data Mining, Data Science, Decision Systems, Distributed and Parallel Computing, Enterprise Infor-
mation Systems Applications, Gamification and Serious Games, Geoinformatics, Health Care Infor-
mation Systems, Human-Computer Interaction, Interaction Design and Usability, IT Architectures,

Publication Frequency. ParadigmPlus publishes one volume per year and three numbers per
volume. The first number was published in April 2020.

Peer-review Policy. ParadigmPlus performs a double-blind peer-review process, where the re-
viewers do not know the names or affiliations of the authors and the reviewer reports provided to
the authors are anonymous. Every submission will be reviewed at least by two experts. Reviewers
will also be asked to indicate how innovative and significant the research is. The Editors will reach
a decision based on these reports. When a submission is accepted, the editor will include the names
and affiliation of the reviewers in alphabetical order by last name.

Open Access Policy. ParadigmPlus is open-access allowing free access to its content in order to
foster the interchange of global knowledge.

Publication Ethics and Malpractice Statement. ParadigmPlus ensures that all involved actors
i.e., authors, reviewers, and editors strictly follow the international rules on ethics in the publication
process. Thus, ParadigmPlus follows the ethics published by the Committee on Publication Ethics
(COPE) in their COPE Best Practice Guidelines for Journal Editors and the International Standards
for Editors and Authors, which includes the following aspects:

• General duties and responsibilities of the editorial board. Having overall responsibility for
the journal, the ParadigmPlus editorial board are committed to: working together to meet the
readers’ and authors’ needs, fostering the continuous improvement of the journal, ensuring
the quality of published material, ensuring freedom of expression, maintaining the academic
integrity of their content, and preventing commercial interests from compromising intellectual
standards, posting corrections, clarifications, retractions, and apologies when necessary.

• Relations with readers. Readers will be informed about research funders and their role in the
research.

• Relations with authors. ParadigmPlus is committed to ensuring the quality of its published
material, informing the goals and standards of the journal. The decision of editors to accept or
decline a submission for publication is based on the relevance of the work, originality, and perti-
nence of the study regarding the journal’s focus and scope. ParadigmPlus includes a description
of the process for peer evaluation of each work received and provides a guide for authors with
this information. The guide is up to date and contains a link to the code of ethics. Paradigm-
Plus recognizes the right of authors to appeal to editorial decisions. Editors will not change their
decision in accepting or declining submission unless extraordinary circumstances or irregular-
ities are detected. Any change in the composition of the editorial board will not affect decisions
already made, except in unusual cases where serious circumstances converge.

• Relations with reviewers. ParadigmPlus makes available to reviewers a guide to what is ex-
pected from them. During the review process, reviewers’ identity is protected at all times,
ensuring anonymity. Nevertheless, when a submission is accepted, reviewers’ information is
included in the published article.

• Claims. ParadigmPlus is committed to answering quickly to complaints, ensuring a smooth
process of resolution. Furthermore, if a claimant is still dissatisfied, ParadigmPlus considers
that they have the right to raise their protests to other instances.

• Promoting academic integrity. ParadigmPlus ensures that its published material conforms to
internationally-accepted ethical standards.

• Protection of individual data. ParadigmPlus guarantees the confidentiality of individuals’ in-
formation.

• Tracking malpractice. ParadigmPlus accepts the obligation to act appropriately in the event
of suspected malpractice or misconduct. The editors not only reject manuscripts when there
are doubts about possible misconduct, but they are also considered ethically obliged to report
suspected cases of misconduct. Every reasonable effort is made by ParadigmPlus to ensure that
works submitted for evaluation are rigorous in their methods and ethically appropriate.

• Integrity and academic rigor. Whenever there is evidence that a published work contains sig-
nificant misstatements, misleading, or distorted statements, it must be corrected immediately.
In the event of fraudulent content being detected, the work will be removed as soon as that
is known, and readers and indexing systems will be informed immediately. Practices that are
considered unacceptable will be reported.

• Conflict of interest. ParadigmPlus will establish the necessary mechanisms to avoid or resolve
potential conflicts of interest between authors, reviewers, and the editorial board.

Editorial

ParadigmPlus is an initiative that was born in the International Conference on Applied Informatics
(ICAI)2. Some members of the program committee that participated in ICAI 2018 and ICAI 2019
decided to undertake this journal in order to provide a new scenario for publishing high quality
articles. To achieve this, all submitted articles underwent a double blind peer review process, where
each article was reviewed by at least three experts from the Editorial Team.

ParadigmPlus is supported by the Editorial Team members, who are researchers that hold Ph.D.
degrees in computing areas. Editorial Team members come from the following countries: Argentina,
Brazil, Chile, China, Colombia, Cyprus, Ecuador, Germany, Greece, India, Japan, Luxembourg, Mo-
rocco, Netherlands, Spain, Switzerland, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom, and United States.

This number contains the articles reviewed and accepted from May to August 2020. In this pe-
riod, ParadigmPlus received 4 submissions. After a careful discussion, the Editorial Board decided to
accept the articles: Using Analog Ensembles with Alternative Metrics for Hindcasting with Multistations,
whose authors are from Portugal and Automated Fine Grained Traceability Links Recovery between High
Level Requirements and Source Code Implementations, whose authors are from Colombia.

We thank the Editorial Team members for their efforts.
