Type
of contributions
Authors are invited to contribute
with three types of contributions: Papers,
Notes, and Reviews
of books, conferences and activities relevant to the aims of the
journals. Translated papers from other languages into english can also
be
invited or selected by the editors in the form of paper or note. Submission of papers will be taken to
imply that they present original, unpublished work not under consideration
for other publication.
Refereeing process
All
papers and notes are subject to a double blind refereeing
process according to the established tradition and standards of
scientific journals, after having first screened by the editors. The
executive editor will acknowledge the receipt of contribution
informing the author(s) as soon as possible about the decisions
concerning the submitted papers. The authors must be expected to wait
up to three months before notification of acceptance, encouragement to
revise and re-submit or rejection.
Submission of
contributions
Contributors
are submitting in MS doc format papers,
notes or reviews
to the editors [Falchetta @ ],
[Livieratos @ ],
[Monti @ ],
[Tolias @ ]
and, in cc, to the executive editor [Koussoulakou @ ] in digital form via e-mail. The relevant
WORD format is given on e-mail request by the executive editor. The
full-paper length is from 10 pages up
to 25
pages in the given format,
including figures,
images, tables, notes and references. Lengthier papers can be accepted
as
particular cases by the editors. A note should not exceed the
10 pages including figures, images, tables, notes and references. A
list of five keywords and a summary not exceeding a hundred words
should accompany each full-paper and short-note.
In the special case when animation(s) are
included into the text, the animation (preferably in animated gif)
should be given in a separate htm
page and numbered regularly as a figure. This htm page is linked properly to the original
page. In this case the author should take care of all the appropriate
rules concerning the resolution and the size of the animations and of
all the necessary assembling of files and folders containing the text,
the images and the animations.
References follow the
internationally accepted standards.
In the e-mail message to which the
contribution is attached, the
authors should include a short biographical note including affiliation
and e-mail address for correspondence.
Text
processing
The editors are authorized to provide
linguistic revisions when necessary but in principle it is the author's
responsibility to take good care of the English or French language
quality. When
quotations in other language are required a translation into the text's
main language should appear in the text or in a footnote. A copy-edited
version of
the contribution will be sent to the authors prior to publication.
Footnotes, as few as possible, should be placed to the bottom of the
relevant page. Figures, images and tables should be included into the
text in the desired place but should also be sent on separate files in
distinct folders (fig, img, tab)

By submitting a text, the authors agree
that the exclusive rights to reproduce the article, when accepted for
publication, have been granted to the editors and the publishers
according to the terms of an Agreement
for the transfer of copyright. Authors are kindly requested to
