Our journal invites a variety of contributions, including research articles, review articles, and short communications.

This information will be announced on our website's Editorial Office section.

It's important to note that any manuscripts you submit must not have been published previously, nor should they be concurrently under review for publication elsewhere (with the exception of conference proceedings papers). The review process we employ is single-blind and rigorous to ensure the quality of the content we publish.
