What is e-Version FirstTM

e-Version First is a feature offered through our journal platform. It allows PDF version of manuscripts that have been peer reviewed and accepted, to be hosted online prior to their inclusion in a final printed journal. Readers can freely access or cite the article. We aim to publish accepted manuscripts in e-Version First in two weeks' time after the final draft completed.

Paper Selection and Publication Process

a) Upon receipt of a submission, the editorial assistant sends an e-mail of confirmation to the submission’s author within 1-3 working days. If you fail to receive this confirmation, your submission/e-mail may have been missed. Please contact the editorial assistant in time for that.

b) Peer review. We use a double-blind system for peer-review; both reviewers and authors' identities remain anonymous. The paper will be reviewed by at least two experts: one editorial staff member and at least one external reviewer. The review process may take 4-10 weeks.

c) Notification of the result of review by e-mail.

d) The authors revise paper and pay Article Processing Charge (200.00 USD).

e) A PDF version of the journal is available for download on the journal’s website, free of charge.
