1 Manuscript Registration

After successful submission, the system will automatically give the manuscript number and send an email to the author.

2 Preliminary Review

After the manuscript is registered, the journal will conduct the preliminary review of the manuscript, which mainly includes the selection of the topic, innovation, academic quality, writing quality, and the rate of checking the weight of the manuscript. Any manuscript that is considered to be of poor academic level or not in line with the scope of the journal or with too high weight check rate after the preliminary review will be directly withdrawn from the journal and the author will be provided with a brief opinion on the withdrawal of the manuscript; if it is considered that the structure of the manuscript is not reasonable and there is a basis for modification, the author will be provided with the opinion on the withdrawal of the manuscript for modification; manuscripts that have passed the preliminary review will be submitted to the external review experts for a blind review. The first review is very fast, generally one or two working days.

3 External Review

Our journal implements double-blind review, and the peer review opinion is an important reference for deciding whether the manuscript is accepted or not. The time of external review determines the processing time of the paper, and the time of external review depends on the speed of the experts' review.

4 Final Review

    After the external review, the editor-in-chief will provide a comprehensive review of the manuscript based on the peer review comments and notify the authors of the review results. There are 4 types of final review results: (1) acceptance; (2) publication after revision; (3) re-review after revision; and (4) withdrawal of the manuscript. For the latter three review results, the journal will give more detailed revision comments for the authors' reference. If the authors have sufficient reasons to refute the review comments, the journal accepts the authors' comments and will submit the manuscript for re-review according to the comments. 

5 Authors Return the Revised Manuscript

    According to the revised comments provided by the journal, authors need to transmit the revised manuscript to the editorial system within the specified time. Submitting revision instructions and marking the revised parts in the revised manuscript will help to speed up the review time of the manuscript.

6 Review

   The editor-in-chief will review the revised manuscript and revision instructions sent back by the authors according to the review comments, and will notify the acceptance of the revised manuscript if it is perfected; manuscripts that have not been revised according to the requirements without sufficient reasons will be returned; if it is necessary to ask for experts to review the manuscript, it will be sent to the external review again; if it is necessary to revise the manuscript, it will be submitted to the retrospective again.
