Abstract

Olivia Bratt*

I am pleased to mention that during the year 2019, all issues of volume 8 were published online well within the time and the print issues were also brought out and dispatched within 30 days of publishing the issue online. JMS also brought out an online special issue in 2019. JMS Published 7 research Article 5 editorial and 2 short communication 2019. In 2018 JMS Published 4 Research Article, 5 Review Article and 1 short communication. The H-index of the journal, however, increased to 10. During the calendar year 2019, Jms received a total of 28 papers, out of which 14 articles (50%) were rejected in the preliminary screening due to plagiarism or being out of the format. During 2019 around 20 articles were subjected to the peer-review process and 14 of those were accepted. In the 8 Volume 14 published during the year 2019, a total of 14 articles were published (at an average of 5 articles per issue) of which, 50 % articles were by foreign authors. A total of 5 research scientists from India and abroad reviewed the 10 articles published in volume 7. Average publication lag time of an article was further reduced to 6-8 weeks. I take this opportunity to acknowledge the contribution of Liang-Kung Chen,during the final editing of articles published and the support rendered by the editorial assistant, Olivia Bratt bringing out issues of JMS in time. I would also like to express my gratitude to all the authors, reviewers, the publisher, the advisory and the editorial board of JMS, the office bearers and staff of IPA secretariat for their support in bringing out yet another volume of JMS and look forward to their unrelenting support to bring out the Volume 8 of JMS in scheduled time.
