If found suitable, we convey our decision to the author to complete follow-on formalities, i.e. signing authorship-cum-publishing agreement (provisional), copyright declarations, provision of full-text content, review timeline, etc. Once the full-text is reviewed and accepted for its publication, the signed provisional authorship-cum-publishing agreement becomes final and operative.
