We invite submissions for special issues on subjects that align with the journal’s focus. These issues concentrate on a specific topic of current relevance and should be curated by authorities in the relevant field to attract top-tier contributions.
In today’s world, there is a growing demand for solutions to complex optimization problems across various fields, including industry, science, and engineering. To meet this demand, MNK Publication offers two types of special issues. The first is the standard Special Issue, overseen by members of the journal’s editorial or review board or a Guest Editor, who manages all aspects of the issue from submission to publication. The second type is the conference special issue, which features a collection of papers selected by conference organizers and published as a single issue.
Editorial Board - To strengthen their research profile and to support their research funding.
Conference Organizers - To give extra credit to conference publications.
Supervisors - To publish papers of their students in bulk under one specific topic at discounted publication rate.
Anyone - Any research scholar, scientists and industrialists who intend to collaborate with MNK Publication Journals network of professional.
Researchers, who are interested in organizing a Special Issue, should submit a proposal to the journal’s editorial office. The proposal should include:
All proposals are sent to the journal's editorial office where they are subject to approval by Senior Editorial Board Members. Once accepted, a Call-for-Papers will be posted on the journal's website.
To ensure the success of a Special Issue, a minimum of 20 manuscripts are required for publication. Otherwise, the manuscripts will be sent for publication in a regular issue.
Guest Editors are required to manage the peer-review process of the submitted manuscripts. Guest Editors will need to read through the manuscript and decide whether it is suitable for publication in the Special Issue. If it is they will then assign it to several reviewers to thoroughly evaluate the manuscript.
Reviewers then submit their results along with their recommendations as one of the following actions:
If a manuscript has been accepted unconditionally, it is sent for further processing.
In the case of conditional acceptance, authors are requested to review their manuscript according to the reviewer's suggestions and submit the revised version of their manuscript for another evaluation.
If reviewers recommend rejecting a manuscript, we immediately reject the manuscript.
We have a single blinded peer-review process in which the reviewers know who the authors of the manuscript are, but the authors do not have access to the information of who the peer reviewers are. We acknowledge the researchers who have performed the peer-review and without the significant contributions made by these researchers, the publication of the journal would not be possible.
