Submitting a paper

Send your paper by e-mail to the Managing Editor, André Kündgen (akundgen AT csusm DOT edu), in either Postscript or PDF format. (Do not send zip, tar, Word or TeX files.) Please include the names of all authors as well as the title of the paper in the body of the e-mail.

Your paper should include an abstract.

If receipt of your paper is not acknowledged within two weeks, please write to the Managing Editor again.

Our editorial process

  1. The Managing Editor assigns your paper to one of the Editors-in-Chief.
  2. If your paper appears potentially acceptable, the Editor-in-Chief will send it to one or more referees. In some cases, several rounds of refereeing may be required and you may be asked to make changes. This step can take from days to months, depending on the referees.
  3. If your paper still appears potentially acceptable when the refereeing process is complete, the Editor-in-Chief will ask you to provide a new edition on the basis of the reports, in the format of the journal. At this stage, source files in TeX or LaTeX will be required.
  4. The committee of all Editors-in-Chief will then consider your paper and make a final decision on whether to accept it or not. This step usually takes about one week.
  5. If your paper is accepted, it will be published as soon as we receive a publication release form. Note that we do not require you to assign copyright to the journal.
