International editorial boards. Publicly verifiable. Publicly accountable.
Every editor publicly listed with consent. Every term start and end date documented. Every ORCID iD linked and verifiable. No inflated boards. No phantom names.
Each Datarsoft journal operates under a four-tier editorial structure designed to balance scholarly rigor, geographic diversity, and operational efficiency.
Editorial Structure
Tier 1 — Editor-in-Chief (1 per journal)
The senior editorial leader. Sets scope, defines policy, makes final accept/reject decisions, represents the journal externally.
Tier 2 — Associate Editors (4 to 8 per journal)
Subject-area editors handling submissions in their specialty. Geographically distributed across India, Asia-Pacific, Europe, North America, and Africa.
Tier 3 — Editorial Advisory Board (8 to 15 per journal)
Senior scholars providing strategic advice. Do not handle individual submissions but advise on scope, ethics, and direction.
Tier 4 — Reviewer Pool (50 to 200+ per journal)
Active reviewers matched to manuscripts via subject expertise tagging. Recruited from international academic and research communities.
Geographic Composition Targets
To meet international quality criteria and Scopus / Web of Science diversity expectations, each Datarsoft journal targets the following composition:
| India | 30 to 40% of editorial board |
| Asia-Pacific (ex-India) | 20 to 25% |
| Europe | 15 to 20% |
| North America | 10 to 15% |
| Africa, Middle East, Latin America | 10 to 15% |
These ratios are reviewed annually and adjusted to reflect the journal's actual author base.
Editorial Board Listings
Each journal has its own editorial board page at /[journal-acronym]/editorial-board. The page lists every editor with:
- Full name and academic title.
- Institutional affiliation (with ROR link).
- Country of primary affiliation.
- Areas of expertise.
- ORCID iD (clickable, verified).
- Google Scholar profile (clickable).
- Editorial role (EiC, AE, EAB).

Annual Editorial Board Refresh
Each year, the Editor-in-Chief, in consultation with the Publishing Director, reviews the editorial board composition. Members whose terms have ended either renew or step down. New members are recruited to fill gaps in expertise or geography. The full refresh is documented and published in the journal's annual editorial letter.
