ONLINE MANUSCRIPT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
Project Domain / Category
Web Application
Abstract/Introduction
This system allows easy handling and transparency for all submissions of research papers. It
includes the facilitation of peer review of submitted research papers. System is customizable for
each journal and will generate reports and statistics on the editorial process. System is able to
provide a suite of customizable manuscript tracking for authors, reviewers, editors and journal
office staff from submission to peer review and production of research papers and journals.
System is designed to accommodate easy and rapid publishing of international open access
journals that are dedicated to various allied sciences. Editors can focus on bringing out quality
scholarly issues for the academic and scientific community.

Functional Requirements: 1. Manuscript /Paper data consists of paper title, abstract, keywords, paper file, and paper
source file. A paper is described by paper category (like case study, technical note, etc.) 2. Your system will allowed different users to use the web application having different roles
and rights. Like authors, reviewers, editors and journal office staff. Author is the main
writer of the research paper. Reviewer will review and identify the changes required in
research journal/paper. Role of editor is to keep track the list of all the submitted
manuscript from submission to publishing. 3. The new paper submission procedure consists of three steps. In the first step, authors
supply data about paper, including title, abstract and keywords. The next step consists of
supplying authors’ personal data. In the last step, the authors submit the paper file. 4. In the revised paper submission process username and password are used to log into the
system and view the paper status. From that area, revised paper or source files of
accepted papers can be submitted. Authors are also allowed to edit their personal data.
This is also the place where the reviews will be published so that the authors can read
them. 5. Each new paper has an editor who is in charge of overseeing the review process and
recommending the decision about the submitted paper. If the submitted paper clearly
does not meet the requirements and the editorial policy of the journal, it may be rejected
by the editor without the review. 6. A paper is associated with different states (received, accepted, rejected, to be revised).
System will keep record of all the research papers that are rejected and are not up to the
required standard. Editor can see the status of all the papers/journal that are under the
review process. A paper may have multiple reviews. Each review is related to the reviewer
(person conducting the scientific review of the paper). 7. Our mobile friendly websites is able to handle open access of scientific and academic
journals that is optimized for different Search Engines. 8. The most difficult requirement on scientific journals is reduction of time from manuscript
submission to publishing. To reduce this time it is necessary to efficiently conduct the
review process and this can only be done by efficiently assigning the submitted
manuscript to each reviewer to speeds up the exchange of information. 9. The editor can add new reviewers and can send e-mail reminders of overdue papers to
reviewers. The editor is allowed to browse papers assigned to other editors in case
consultation is required.
