① The reviewer shall submit his or her review along with a review outcome, which can be one of “Accept as is”, “Accept after revision”, “Re-review after revision”, or “Reject”, to this editing committee.

② When it is recognized that the paper should be revised, the reviewer shall specify in detail the content to be revised.

③ In case the thesis is judged to be “Reject”, the reviewer should specify in detail the reason for his or her opinion on the paper review.

④ When the paper review is finished, the reviewer shall destroy the review data such as the paper and its files.


Article 6. Review by an Editor in Chief

① Based on the review results by all reviewers, the editor-in-chief shall judge the paper in his or her opinion on the review outcome: “Accept as is”, “Accept after revision”, “Re-review after revision”, and “Reject”.

② When the judgment by the editor-in-chief is “Accept after revision”, revision of the paper and response to the review opinion shall be requested, the revised paper and response shall be submitted, and they shall be reviewed by the editor.

③ When the editor-in-chief judges that the paper should be “Re-review after revision”, revision of the paper and response to the review opinion shall be requested from the author. The revised paper and response shall be submitted to and reviewed by the reviewers who demanded revision and the chief editor.
