Reviewers Guide

The International Journal of Advanced Logistics, Transport and Engineering (IJALTE) has accepted single-blind peer review of articles:

Reviewing is carried out by members of the Editorial Board.

Reviewers must be recognized experts on the subject of peer-reviewed materials and have an h-index (Hirsch index), an academic degree of candidate of technical sciences or doctor of philosophy, and also have at least one article in publications included in the international databases Web of Science,  Scopus, over the past three years.

The following guidelines may be of assistance for reviewing a paper submitted to IJALTE:

 Technical quality: It should be judged based on novelty, originality, and clarity of presentation.

Interest for readers: It should fall within the scope of the journal and it should be of interest, from an academic or industrial point of view, for the readers of the journal.

Need for modification: Even though the paper is well written in general, it may need to be improved (technically, spelling, punctuation, grammar, etc.).

Acceptability for publication: An overall judgement is required. The paper may be accepted as presented, require major or minor modifications or it should be rejected.

General comments: the paper can be well written and technically correct; however, comments made by the reviewer can improve the quality of the manuscript. Regardless the reviewer’s recommendation (accepted, major revision required, minor revision required, rejected), we encourage to include them.
