- Initial check: the editorial office checks scope, formatting, metadata, ethics, and completeness.
- Editor assignment: the Editor-in-Chief or section editor assigns manuscript handling.
- Peer review: reviewers evaluate the manuscript according to the journal review policy.
- Decision: editors issue a decision such as revision, resubmission, acceptance, or rejection.
- Revision: authors respond to reviewer and editor comments.
- Production: accepted manuscripts enter copyediting, layout, proofreading, DOI/metadata checking, and publication.
- Publication: articles are published online with complete metadata and article files.
