AUTHOR GUIDELINES

 

Log in or Register to make a submission.

The papers should be prepared using MS Word 2003 or a later program version. All contributions to the journal are published in the English language. The paper must not exceed 6000 words, including the main title, abstract, keyword, tables, references, figure captions, and endnotes. Designations such as DOI, UDC, date of paper submission, date of paper acceptance, and bilingual information are entered by the journal Editors. AGG+ uses the IEEE citation style. The papers should be submitted in the following MSWord template according to the technical guidelines.

All papers are subject to the double-anonymous peer-review process and plagiarism check. After the paper has been approved by the Editors, as suitable for the journal, it will be peer-reviewed by at least two independent, anonymous expert referees. The choice of reviewers is at the Editors’ discretion. The Editors-in-Chief and Section Editors will match the papers with reviewers who are experts in the field of research and do not have recent joint publications with any of the authors. The reviewers of the same paper act independently and are not aware of each other’s identities. In case the review reports contain the opposite decision (accept/reject) or categorization of the article, the Editors-in-Chief and Section Editors may assign additional reviewers.
