Style
IREASE accepts
papers in Microsoft Word (.doc) electronic form only.
Please note that
papers must be correctly formatted in order to be published.
Formatting
instructions can be found on Author guidelines and must be strictly
followed or else your paper will not be published.
Submission for Review
Unpublished papers and extended
versions of papers presented at conferences may be submitted for possible
publication. Responsibility for the content of a paper lays on the Authors
and not on the Editors or the Publisher. Surveys or tutorial papers are
particularly welcome.
Articles submitted to the Review
should be original contributions and should not be under consideration for any
other publication at the same time. Authors who submit articles for publication
have to
warrant that their work does not infringe any existing copyright and they have
to
indemnify the publisher against any breach of such warranty.
The submitting author is responsible
for obtaining agreement of all coauthors as well as any sponsors' required
consent
before submitting a paper. IREASE strongly discourages courtesy authorship.
Authors are obliged to cite relevant prior work and they should consider the
following points:
1) Technical papers submitted for
publication must advance the state of knowledge and must cite relevant prior
work.
2) The length of a submitted paper
should suit its importance, or it should be appropriate to the complexity of
the work.
3) Authors must convince both peer
reviewers and the editors about the scientific and technical merit of a paper;
knowing that, the standards of proof are higher when extraordinary or unexpected results are
reported.
4) As any scientific progress
requires replication, papers submitted for publication must provide
sufficient information to allow readers to perform similar experiments or
calculations and as well as to use the reported results. Although not everything
is needed to be
disclosed, a paper must contain new, useable, and fully described information.
5) Unintelligible English is a valid
reason for rejection.
Every paper and contribution will
become the legal copyright of the publisher unless it is otherwise agreed, in
order to have an easily dissemination and to ensure proper policing of use.
Manuscripts
should be sent via e-mail as attachment in .doc format to:
editorialstaff@praiseworthyprize.com
Each
submitted paper is subjected to the following review procedures:
-
It is
reviewed by the Editor-in-Chief for general publication suitability;
-
If it is
judged suitable, three Reviewers are selected from the editorial board and a
review process takes place;
-
Taking care of the recommendations of the
Reviewers, the Editor-in-Chief then decides whether
the particular article may be accepted as it is, or it may be revised or rejected.
The IREASE
guarantees a very short review process. Any paper will be published, within two months from the submitted date, if
it has been accepted.
The regular paper
page length limit is defined at 15 formatted Review pages, including
illustrations, references and author(s) biographies. Pages 16 and above are
charged 10 euro per page and payment is a prerequisite for publication.
Once your article
has been accepted, we will require you to complete, sign and return, a copy of the
copyright form
that will be sent you via e-mail, by fax and by mail . We will not be able to publish
your paper without the copyright form.
