All manuscripts are reviewed by an editor and members of the editorial board or qualified outside reviewers. As soon as we receive an article, the editorial office will pre-screen your manuscript. The officer will check whether the manuscript is valid and language is fluent and necessary factors are all included. The editor reserves the right to return manuscripts that do not conform to the instructions for manuscript preparation and artwork instruction, as well as papers that do not fit the scope of the journal, prior to refereeing. Following is a formal review process accomplished by other official reviewers. 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. It should be noted that our refereeing process, common to many other publishers, is single-blind, that is, the referees remain anonymous and their identities are not released to authors. The referees, however, are informed of the authors’ names and affiliations. All submitted papers will be reviewed in about 4 ~ 6 weeks.

Open Access provides free, unrestricted online access to the scholarly literature to anyone in the world. At JRTE, we are convinced that everyone – not only scientists – can benefit from research results, and we publish all our articles exclusively under open access distribution. Readers have the right to use, distribute, and reproduce in any medium, provided the source is properly cited.
