Each submission is checked for suitability when received by the editorial office, and may be rejected without review if it is outside the scope of the journal, is obviously of insufficient quality, or is missing important sections. 

The journal invites external experts (not only Editorial Board members) to review each article that is considered suitable for consideration. The publication decision is made by the Editor-in-Chief after receiving at least two external reviewer reports with recommendations. 

The journal uses single-blind peer review which means that, by default, author names are revealed to reviewers but reviewer names are withheld from the authors. Authors can request to “blind” their names. 

On receipt of at least two reviews, the Editor-in-Chief will make a decision of

1. Accept: the article is accepted to be published without having revision in substances.
2. Minor revision\ Major revision: When the decision of minor/major revision is made, and the authors do not revise their articles satisfactorily after receiving reviewer reports, then the Editor-in-Chief reserves the right to reject the article. When revised articles are received they will either be sent out for further review or the Editor-in-Chief will make a decision depending on the level of revision requested.
3. Reject: the article is rejected by the reviewer(considered less suitable to be published in the journal).
   The reasons for the decision will be communicated to the authors. 

The time to review and make a decision is extremely variable since it is sometimes difficult to find suitable reviewers, and there may be delays in receiving reviewer reports. The Editor-in-Chief and editorial office make all efforts to minimize the time from submission to first decision. The journal aims to make a first decision (after review) within 40–60 days, but cannot guarantee this.
