The International Journal of Software Innovation (IJSI) covers state-of-the-art research and development in all aspects of evolutionary and revolutionary ideas pertaining to software systems and their development. The journal publishes original papers on both theory and practice that reflect and accommodate the fast-changing nature of daily life. Topics of interest include not only application-independent software systems, but also application-specific software systems like healthcare, education, energy, and entertainment software systems, as well as techniques and methodologies for modeling, developing, validating, maintaining, and reengineering software systems and their environments.
Mission & Scope:
The mission of the International Journal of Software Innovation (IJSI) is to provide a comprehensive body of innovative knowledge in a variety of software system domains. The journal stipulates the sharing of research results, surveys, and practical experience in every phase of the software lifecycle—from inception, through systems and requirements engineering, system/software architectural...

However, through Green OA, IGI Global supports a Fair Use Policy, enabling authors to Post the final
typeset PDF (which includes the title page, table of contents and other front materials, and the copyright
statement) of their chapter or article (NOT THE ENTIRE BOOK OR JOURNAL ISSUE), on the author or
editor's secure personal website and/or their university repository site. See the Fair Use Policy for sharing allowances conducive to Green Open Access.
- Open Access Publishing: If the author choses to publish under OA, the authors receive the
Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0) licensing arrangement. The copyright for the
work remains solely with the author(s) of the article. Others may distribute, remix, tweak, and build upon
the work, even commercially, without asking prior permission from the publisher or author and so long as
