Editorial Board reserves the right to reject the paper or require its revision/modification. Manuscripts can be rejected without reviewing if Editor-in-Chief determines that they do not fall within the aims and the scope of the Journal, or do not meet the Journal’s quality standards, or they are of limited scientific merit and are not appropriate for the Journal's readership. Before making a decision on publication, Editor-in-Chief can consult the members of Editorial Board or peer-reviewers.
