Articles evaluation and publishing process

All the observations in regard to the article (from the Editorial Committee and the two evaluators) must be considered by the author to introduce changes and modifications. The authors will have a maximum of fifteen (15) days to send back the corrected versions of their texts.

The Editorial Committee has the last word regarding the publication of the articles and the publication issues, decision that will be communicated to the author as soon as possible. The fulfillment of the date proposed is directly restrained to the dully supply of all the information required from the author. The journal reserves the right to do minor style changes.

During the publication process, the authors can be consulted by the editors in order to solve any question(s) that arise(s). The e-mail is the way to establish and maintain communication with the authors.
