Reviewing procedure

REVIEWING PROCEDURE

Reviews

Only the articles, which obtained  positive reviews, will be published.

 Steps of reviewing procedure

  1. The procedure of reviewing articles is in accordance with the recommendations described in the brochure “Good practices in reviewing procedures in science”.
  2. Authors, delivering their articles for a publication in the journal, express their consent to have their articles reviewed.
  3. Delivered articles are subject to a general assessment by the Editorial Office and then they are evaluated by reviewers.
  4. At least two independent reviewers, employed at different institutions than the author/authors are appointed. The reviewers guarantee independent opinions, lack of conflict of interest, lack of personal and business relationships with the article authors and observing the confidentiality principles.
  5. The recommended form of a review is a model, in which the author/authors do not know their identities (so called “double – blind review process”).
  6. The results of the review are sent to Open Journal Systems 3.4.0.4, which is open source journal management and publishing software developed, supported, and freely distributed by the Public Knowledge Project (PKP) under the GNU General Public License, which our publishing house uses.
  7. The reviewer delivers a review in which he states explicitly if the article is approved for a publication or that it is rejected.
  8. The final decision about a qualification for a publication is taken by the Editorial Staff.

The Editorial Staff of the “Mining Machines” Quaterly expresses gratitude to all the reviewers for taking duties of reviewing scientific and technical articles. We would like to thank you for your clear-sightness, scrupulosity and punctuality of delivering reviews. Your reviews guarantee keeping high level of our publications and support a scientific development of many authors who publish in our magazine.

PUBLICATION ETHICS

The principles of the publication ethics of the “Mining Machines” Editorial Office are based on the best guidelines in accordance with the guidelines of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) for editors of journals.

In the case of any suspicion of the fraud or neglect connected with the research process, a preparation of the text and its publication, the journal Editorial Office uses the means aiming at an elimination of such behaviour.
The procedures applied by the Editorial Office encompass, for  example, a request for an explanation, a rejection of the article. In the case when it lacks the authors’ explanations as regards the suspisions,  the Editorial Office can apply for assistance to the institutions dealing with such issues.
