Management Structure

Editorial Process

OJS moves submissions to the journal and will then be managed by one or more editors as follows:

1. After receiving the manuscript we will send the author a submission of acknowledgement E-Mail.
2. Plagiarism Checker Software will check manuscripts.
3.  Primary quality will be Checked by the Editor.
4. The manuscript will be sent for Double Blinded Review.
5. Based on the Double Blinded Review editor will make a Decision and the decision will be communicated to the author. Decisions can be three types like accepted without revision, resubmitted with major/minor revisions, or rejected.
6. After the final review process if the paper will be accepted, we will send a payment request to the author.
7. The author needs to deposit the publication fee after the payment request.
8. After submission of copyright and fee articles, the submission is assigned to an issue for publication.
