Fast Editorial Execution and Review Process (FEEReview Process):

Acceptance of manuscripts is driven entirely by handling editorial team considerations and independent peerreview, ensuring the highest standards are maintained no matter the route to regular peerreviewed publication or a fast editorial review process. The handling editor and the article contributor are responsible for adhering to scientific standards. The article FEEReview process of $99 will not be refunded even if the article is rejected or withdrawn for publication.

The corresponding author or institution/organization is responsible for making the manuscript FEEReview Process payment. The additional FEEReview Process payment covers the fast review processing and quick editorial decisions, and regular article publication covers the preparation in various formats for online publication, securing fulltext inclusion in a number of permanent archives like HTML, XML, and PDF, and feeding to different indexing agencies.
