  • personal data

8)      Articles accepted for publication are given to language and technical editors.

9)      The Author is contacted by one of the editors to make necessary corrections.

10)   The Author should correct his/ her paper following the reviewers’ and editors’ comments. The time and scope of necessary corrections is agreed between the editor and the author.
