Review Process
The review covers the following issues:

Review is conducted double "blind". Reviewers (two) do not know the author of the reviewed article, and the name of the reviewers is unknown to the author of the article.

In the presence of negative reviews of the manuscript from two different reviewers or one negative on its revised version, the article is rejected without consideration by other members of the editorial board.
The maximum period of review - between the dates of receipt of the manuscript to the editorial board and the issuance of the editorial board of the decision - is two months.
