DUTIES OF REVIEWER

Contribution to Editorial Decisions
Peer review helps editors in making editorial decisions and through editorial communication with authors can also help authors in correcting problems.

Objectivity Standard
The review should be conducted objectively. Personal criticism of the author is inappropriate. Referees should express their views clearly with supporting arguments.

Source Recognition
Reviewers should identify relevant published works that have not been cited by the authors. Any statement that an observation, derivation or argument has been previously reported should be accompanied by the relevant citation. A reviewer should also bring to the editor's attention any substantial similarity or overlap between the manuscript under consideration and other published papers of which they are personally aware.
