Hi Themis,

you can do this by applying a function to level 1:

ij = {{1, 1}, {1, 2}, {1, 3}, {1, 4}, {2, 1}, {2, 2}, {2, 3}, {2,
   4}, {3, 1}, {3, 2}, {3, 3}, {3, 4}, {4, 1}, {4, 2}, {4, 3}, {4, 4}}

In[5]:= Apply[f, ij, 1]

Out[5]= {f[1, 1], f[1, 2], f[1, 3], f[1, 4], f[2, 1], f[2, 2],
 f[2, 3], f[2, 4], f[3, 1], f[3, 2], f[3, 3], f[3, 4], f[4, 1],
 f[4, 2], f[4, 3], f[4, 4]}

Or, which is the same,

In[6]:= f @@@ ij

Out[6]= {f[1, 1], f[1, 2], f[1, 3], f[1, 4], f[2, 1], f[2, 2],
 f[2, 3], f[2, 4], f[3, 1], f[3, 2], f[3, 3], f[3, 4], f[4, 1],
 f[4, 2], f[4, 3], f[4, 4]}

Regards,
Leonid
