Summary:

"I've been reviewing bibliography for a territorial management project, and I've found a paper that could be useful for the methodology section. However, it's been published at an Open Access journal I am not familiar with (my first language is Spanish and I tend to keep to OA journals in that language, as it is easier to figure out if they are a scam or a predatory journal)."

[...]

" So, my question is: Does anyone know if the Oriental Journal of Computer Science & Technology is a predatory journal?"
