For Editors

Editors, including Editors-in-Chief, associate editors, editorial board members, and guest editors, are expected to maintain and develop the journal's profile and reputation wherever possible. Editors should ensure that the journal's aims&scope and publication respond to any changes of direction in the field of study to incorporate newly-emerging work. Editors will work closely with the journal's Editorial Office to ensure that it is strategically developed in line with market evolution. Both Editors and Editorial Office will make recommendations in this regard, based on Editors’ expertise and sources of information.

Special Issues

Special Issues (SIs) are topic-themed collections of papers focusing on specific subject area of the journal and edited by Guest Editors who are solicited or propose. A Special Issue is not an issue of the journal. These Guest Editors typically invite or commission submissions to the special issue and oversee the peer review process.

All submissions that meet the journal's criteria for peer review will undergo the journal's standard peer review process. If any conflicts of interest arise between the Guest Editor and authors, other editors from Editorial Board will be assigned to handle them to ensure the evaluation of these submissions is objective.
