                  The Manuscript Processing System (MPS) is a web-based manuscript submission and tracking system developed by Bentham Science Publishers for efficient, fast and cost effective processing of submitted manuscripts. MPS has been designed with the objective to ensure step-by-step online processing and tracking of manuscripts for authors, editors and the publisher; from submission to acceptance and final reproduction.

                  Most journals generally convey the editorial decision on the submission within two to three months from the initiation of the peer-review process. Time duration of the peer-review process varies due to factors such as availability and promptness of the reviewers approached to carry out reviewing of the submission. For the duration of the review process, the submission appears in the “In Review” section of the Manuscript Processing System (MPS).

                  The peer review of a manuscript is a strictly confidential process. Reviewers should therefore keep the whole process completely confidential. They should consult the EIC/Senior editor and take permission before consulting another colleague for help in the peer-review of the submitted manuscript. Reviewers should not disclose any information whatsoever to anyone before the publication of the manuscript.
