Submission Policy

Author’s responsibilities

As the author of the submitted work, it is your responsibility to ensure that the manuscript presents a technically as well as grammatically correct copy. A well-prepared manuscript will help to speed up the peer review process as less time will be spent by reviewers annotating technical inefficiencies of the paper and more time evaluating the intellectual content.

Authors are required to prepare their manuscripts according to the format given in every journal’s Author Guidelines. For general format and style, consult recent issues of the journal. Manuscripts submitted not in accordance to the journal format will be significantly delayed during the production stage.

All manuscripts should be written in good English. This is the responsibility of the authors, not the editors. Papers below the standard for the Journal will be returned to the authors for rewriting and can be rejected for this reason alone. SyncSci Publishing offers its own professional editing services. Please contact us at editorial@syncsci.com if you need us.

Mathematical formulae and equations have to be presented professionally according to standard format. For general format and style, consult recent issues of the journal. Detailed information on the preparation of mathematical formulae and equations is given in the LaTex and Word guidelines. Word’s built-in “Equation Editor” or the full MathType product should be used for authors who use Microsoft Word to prepare manuscripts.

Manuscripts submitted are first screened by the editors; only those on subject matters within the scope of the Journal are sent to expert referees for evaluation. This two-tier screening process helps to ensure an appropriate focus as well as high scientific quality of the Journal.
