Special Issue Process
The special issue process starts off with defining a current research theme and is followed up with a Call for Papers. The manuscript submission is subjected to Editorial Screening, which determines its relevance, originality, scientific merit, and adherence to the requirements of the journal.
These manuscripts, therefore, undergo peer review among the peers. Changes are anticipated to be made by the authors following the comments received from the peer review and the final decision made by the editorial board.
Scientific information is ensured to be present in all the issues without compromising the editorial standard of the journal.
