Background

Multimedia University (MMU) has organized the International Conference on Robotics, Automation and Sciences (ICORAS) in 2016 and 2017. Those two conferences are the largest technical events on Robotics, Automation and Sciences in Melaka in the year 2016 and 2017. To elevate the status of ICORAS based on its success, it is due time that we introduce an MMU Journal on its reputation. This will help to promote MMU in the areas of robotics, automation and sciences. It will include the multi-disciplinary engineering disciplines such as Electrical, Electronics, Mechatronics, Biomedical Engineering, General Sciences and others related fields. This journal is named the International Journal on Robotics, Automation and Sciences (IJORAS).

IJORAS published its first volume in November, 2019. IJORAS continued to publish volume 2 and volume 3 in November 2020 and 2021. In 2022, due to technical concerns, IJORAS changed publication month from November to July and published volume 4 in July 2022. In 2023, IJORAS decided to have 2 issues per volume and hence the month of publication is rescheduled to April for issue 1 and September for issue 2. In 2025, IJORAS increased the number of issues per year to 3 to attract more paper submissions. The month  of publication therefore is rescheduled to March for issue 1, July for issue 2 and November for issue 3.

Readerships
The readerships for IJORAS are worldwide researchers and specialists who are peers of the contributors. A general but educated and well-read audience are intended audience for this journal.

Rationale
This journal can support the goals of our university and research Centre. This journal target global researchers to publish their quality research work for science advances. The kind of recognition, both national and international, that a new journal can bring are of utmost important to research administrators. This journal can demonstrate the ability of our institution to compete with other research agencies in the production of knowledge, while also forming the basis of new collaborations, between local, regional, or international researchers, research departments, and institutions.
