The Research Journal of Maaref University of Applied Sciences (RJMU) presents its Second Edition (Vol. 2, Issue 1, February 2026) as a clear move from “launch” to continuity—a journal that intends to remain, publish regularly, and earn trust through consistent standards. As a peer-reviewed, biannual, open-access journal, RJMU emphasizes double-blind review, strong publication ethics, and research that is transparent, citable, and useful beyond the moment of publication. 
This edition includes 28 peer-reviewed contributions across engineering, computing and cybersecurity, education and language studies, management, and applied health/lab research. Readers will find studies on human–robot communication, autonomous robotics and control (including PSO-PID approaches), Android malware detection using machine learning, and AI-supported decision policies using big-data analytics. It also features work on digital accounting transformation, responsible procurement in e-commerce, legal education in an AI-driven future, and several papers on educational linguistics, online language teaching, and World Englishes—showing the journal’s interdisciplinary range.
