Decisions on which articles to be published are the responsibility of the editors who also have a responsibility to ensure the good quality of the manuscripts.
The appointment of the Editorial Board is the duty of the Editor-in-Chief and associate editors.

The editor, who is at the same time the publisher of the journal, is responsible for ensuring that the journal meets international standards for technology, archiving, data protection and ethical policies.
