Submission Guidelines

Submission

The manuscript should be submitted by one of the authors through the online system. A manuscript submitted by anyone other than one of the authors will not be processed for publication. The submitter takes responsibility as a corresponding author during submission, the peer review process, copyediting, and author proofreading.

In submission, the submitter will be guided stepwise through creating and uploading the various files. All correspondence, including notification of the Editor's decision and requests for revision, takes place by e-mail and via the author's homepage, removing the need for a hard-copy paper trail. When submitting a revised manuscript, please upload only the revised manuscript files. The handling Editor has access to the original manuscript files; therefore, there is no need to upload these files again along with the revised manuscript.
