Announcement!
Transitioning to Continuous Publication in 2027
Beginning January 2027, this journal will adopt continuous publication, with one volume per calendar year and no issue numbers.
Continuous publishing’s main benefit is faster publication: each article will be published as soon as review, editing, typesetting, proofreading, and final production checks are complete, without waiting for a scheduled issue.
Articles published before 2027 will retain their original volume, issue, and citation details and remain accessible in the journal’s archives.
