Research Briefs on Information & Communication Technology Evolution (ReBICTE) (ISSN: 2383-9201) is an international, peer-reviewed, open-access journal dedicated to advancing research and critical thinking on how information and communication technologies (ICT) are designed, built, deployed, and transformed over time. The journal welcomes work that explains not only what technologies do, but also why they evolve technically, operationally, and societally so that researchers and practitioners can better understand ICT trajectories and make informed decisions.

ReBICTE publishes original contributions spanning the full ICT lifecycle: theoretical foundations, engineering innovations, applied systems, and rigorous evaluation of real-world implementations. The journal emphasizes research that is technically strong and methodologically sound work that can be replicated, compared, and built upon while also encouraging interdisciplinary insight where ICT interacts with human, organizational, policy, and economic realities.

A key strength of ReBICTE is its balanced scope across core ICT (e.g., computing, networks, security, data/AI, software systems) and applied/industrial ICT (e.g., smart infrastructure, resilient systems, cyber-physical applications, digital services, and impact assessment). Submissions are expected to contribute either (i) new methods, architectures, or algorithms, (ii) robust system designs and implementations, or (iii) evaluation studies that generate actionable evidence about performance, reliability, security, scalability, usability, or societal impact.

ReBICTE is positioned as a timely and academically rigorous venue: manuscripts are editorially screened for scope and scientific standards before peer review, and the journal aims for an efficient decision process while maintaining strong editorial and ethical controls. This makes it suitable for researchers who want their results disseminated promptly without compromising scholarly rigor.

The journal operates under a diamond open-access model meaning authors are not charged APCs and published work is openly accessible to the global community. This publishing approach supports equitable participation, enabling strong research to reach readers regardless of institutional funding and improving visibility and reuse across academia and industry.

ReBICTE ultimately serves a broad audience: academics developing new ICT theory and systems, engineers and industry practitioners implementing solutions, and decision-makers looking for evidence-based insights into technology adoption and impact. By focusing on both innovation and evolution, the journal aims to be a practical reference point for how ICT changes and how we can design, secure, and govern it responsibly in a rapidly shifting digital world.
