Editorial management time

It is estimated a time of 3 days, from the reception of the document in the OJS platform to the issuance of the section editor's concept and communication to the authors.
The evaluation process depends directly on the availability of the evaluators. The time limit between the request and the evaluator's response is 5 days. If there is no response within these days, a request for evaluation is sent to another peer reviewer.
Once the peer reviewer agrees to review the document, the evaluation form is sent to the peer reviewer. The peer reviewer has a maximum of 30 days to complete and submit the review.
After receiving the evaluation, if there are suggestions for changes, the authors are notified and have a maximum of 7 days to make changes in form and 15 days to make substantive changes.
After obtaining the corrected version of the document, a final revision with change control is made, to be sent to layout. The correction time varies according to the number and degree of complexity of the corrections, as well as the speed of response of the authors.
Once the document has been diagrammed, the author has the option to review the latest version before it is published. After approval, the document is published in its printed or digital version.
