Submissions to the journal are assessed by independent referees who make recommendations on the suitability of the articles for publication. We are committed to providing timely assessment of articles and authors are informed of the publication decision as soon as possible.

It should be noted that our refereeing process, common to many other publishers, is double blind, that is, the referees remain anonymous and their identities are not released to authors.

The referees, however, are not informed of the authors’ names and affiliations.

The evaluation process for submitted papers and possible acceptance or rejection of articles is shown in the bellow gaphical diagram.
