Peer Review Policy
SASI will publish the only paper strictly following guidelines and manuscript preparation. All submitted manuscripts are going through a double anonymous peer review process. Those papers are read by editorial members (on the field of specialization) and will be screened by the Managing Editor to meet the necessary criteria for publication in two weeks. Every submitted manuscript that passes this step will be checked by iThenticate to identify any plagiarism. Manuscripts will be sent to two reviewers, based on their historical experience in reviewing manuscripts or based on their field of specialization. The time period for review is three weeks. SASI has reviewed forms in order to keep the same items reviewed by two reviewers. Then editorial board will make a decision upon the reviewers comments or advice. Reviewers will give their assessment on originality, clarity of presentation, and contribution to the field/science, SASI has four kinds of decisions:
- Accepted, as it is
- Accepted by Minor Revisions (let authors revised with stipulated time)
- Accepted by Major Revisions (let authors revised with stipulated time)
- Rejected (generally, on grounds of the outside of scope and aim, major technical description problems, lack of clarity of presentation)
The detailed Journal peer review process is based on the following chart:
