Information and communication technology (ICT) refers to all technology used to handle telecommunications,

broadcast media, intelligent information management systems, audio-visual media processing and transmission

systems, and network-based control and monitoring functions. In this modern era of many key applications and

technological developments are going around Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) such Internet of

things (IoT), edge computing and AI applications.

[1-3]

In this transformation, Information and Communication

Technologies (ICT) have played a fundamental role in developing and advancing Artificial Intelligence (AI) by

providing essential infrastructure, data, and tools.

ICT plays important role in education, engineering, medical and

agriculture.

Journal of Information and Communications Technology: Algorithms, Systems and Applications (https://gr-

journals.com/Ictasa/index.php) (accessed 25 June 2025) is an open-access, quarterly, peer-reviewed journal that

publishes high-quality research articles covering all aspects of ICT, ranging from key enabling technologies like micro-

and nanoelectronics, advanced materials, and photonics, to transformative applications in robotics, bioengineering,

and cyber-physical systems. Also, it covers, advances in cross-cutting transformative applications of ICT in the field

of robotics, bioengineering and cyber–physical systems, through to progress in data processing and computing. The

journal serves as an advanced platform for the development of cutting-edge ICT systems, technologies, and their

associated services, applications, and emerging trends. Its goal is to highlight how ICT can play an increasingly pivotal

role in addressing global challenges and unlocking new frontiers in fields such as science, medicine, and engineering.

This journal welcomes a variety of article types, including original research papers, comprehensive reviews, and

impactful case studies, offering a dynamic space for scholarly exchange and professional insights.

This first issue (June 2025) brings together a diverse collection of high-quality research articles. Barhate et al. reviewed

various machine learning techniques for cyberbullying with comparative analysis. Salve et al. Introduced the cutting-

edge anti-collision drone traffic control system, employing swarm technology, represents a breakthrough in ensuring

the secure operation of autonomous aerial vehicles. Asane et al. security system using face recognition technique and

machine learning using a facial recognition model coupled with Support Vector Machine (SVM) classification. Rathod

et al. reported intelligent formulation recommendation system in order to make the process of choosing the best

Ayurvedic formulations based on symptoms, patient characteristics, and contraindications easier. Bidve et al. reported

email aliasing to provide helpful information to people and businesses looking to improve email management

procedures by clarifying how email aliasing contributes to increased email security and efficiency.

As a newly launched journal in this transformative era of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML),

Edge computing, and Internet of Things (IoT), we are dedicated to providing a leading platform to advancing research

in the multifaceted domain of ICT. We are committed to uphold the rigorous and efficient peer review process ensuring

that every published work meets the highest standards.

On behalf of the Editorial Office, we extend a heartfelt welcome to all our readers, authors, and reviewers. Your

participation and engagement are critical to the success of this journal. We encourage you to contribute your work,

share your insights, and help us to shape this journal into a leading forum for innovation and discovery.
