Peer-Review Process

PEER REVIEW

1    THE REVIEW PROCESS

Submitted manuscripts are via an online submission system (http://www.infotech.ac.cn). Articles in DAKD are thoroughly peer reviewed. Generally, a minimum of 2 peer reviewers are chosen for the peer review. DAKD’s review process is as follows:

·  The online submission system will automatically send an e-mail to authors if successful submission of a manuscript.

·  The review process currently averages at 60 days from submission to acceptance. All submissions to DAKD can be tracked via the online submission system.

·  The corresponding author will receive an email from DAKD that asks to revise the manuscript. Authors should be required to submit the revised version and a description document online before the deadline. The description document should address each peer reviews’ comments and specify what corresponding changes you made in the revised version of your paper.

·  Some of the revised version should be double-reviewed.

·  As per DAKD policy, no peer review charge to publish your articles in DAKD. Publication fee in DAKD should be full compliance with the National Policy, and it is payable once the article has been accepted for publishing. Meanwhile authors will get paid for the publication.
