MIET in Collaboration with UMKC jointly started the publishing of International Journal of Next-Generation Computing (IJNGC), a peer-reviewed journal aimed at providing a platform for researchers to showcase and disseminate high-quality research in the domain of next-generation computing. With the introduction of new computing paradigms such as cloud computing, IJNGC promises to be a high-quality and highly competitive dissemination forum for new ideas, technology focus, research results and discussions in these areas. The Journal was selected for indexing in the Emerging Sources Citation Index (ESCI) by Thomson Reuters under the Web of Science offering. IJNGC is one of the few computer science journals from India to be selected for indexing in ESCI. MIET is the only technical institution in J&K to publish a high-quality international research journal with a high-profile editorial board comprising Professors from the leading international universities across the world (http://ijngc.perpetualinnovation.net)
