Computer and Knowledge Engineering
The journal Computer and Knowledge Engineering (CKE), established by the Department of Computer Engineering at Ferdowsi University of Mashhad, has recently been recognized as a "Scientific-Research" level publication by Iran's Ministry of Science, Research, and Technology. CKE is an English-language journal that invites original research across all areas of computer science and engineering, including but not limited to algorithms, programming languages, software and hardware engineering, artificial intelligence, networking, and cybersecurity. With a distinguished international editorial board, CKE emphasizes its commitment to global research contributions. As a peer-reviewed, open-access journal, it ensures immediate accessibility to accepted papers and maintains an updated website featuring the latest publications. The journal seeks innovative research that advances computer science and its applications for societal benefit.
