e-Informatica Software Engineering Journal (EISEJ) is an international, fully open access (CC-BY 4.0 without any fees for both authors and readers), blind peer-reviewed computer science journal using a fast, continuous publishing model (papers are edited, assigned to volume, receive DOI & page numbers, and are published immediately after acceptance without waiting months in a queue to be assigned for a specific volume/issue) without paper length limit. Our aim is to focus on empirical software engineering, as well as data science (AI/ML methods) in software engineering.
The journal is published by Wrocław University of Science and Technology under the auspices of the Software Engineering Section of the Committee on Informatics of the Polish Academy of Sciences.
Aims and Scope
The purpose of e-Informatica Software Engineering Journal is to publish original and significant results in all areas of software engineering research.
The scope of e-Informatica Software Engineering Journal includes methodologies, practices, architectures, technologies and tools used in processes along the software development lifecycle, but particular stress is laid on empirical evaluation using effective statistical and data science, AI/ML methods, as well as on secondary studies in software engineering (see, e.g., [1, 2, 3]).

e-Informatica Software Engineering Journal is published online and in hard copy form. The online version is from the beginning published as a gratis, no authorship fees, open-access journal, which means it is available at no charge to the public. The printed version of the journal is the primary (reference) one.
