Instructions
to
authors
Submission of revised
manuscript
Revised versions of
manuscripts should also be submitted using the Editorial Manager.
The formatting instructions for the revised manuscript are as for a
fresh submission. The only additional instructions given here are
for framing the point-by-point reply to the reviewers' comments.
Reply to each reviewer's comments separately and include the reviewer's
comments in the reply. The reply should be framed as follows.
Comment 1: [Text of comment 1 from reviewer 1.]
Reply 1: [Text of your reply.]
Comment 2: [Text of comment 2 from reviewer 1.]
Reply 2: [Text of your reply.]
This helps the reviewer and the editor because they do not have to look
at another sheet for the comments. Avoid statements like
'corrected' or 'necessary corrections have been made'. Instead,
state clearly, but briefly, what has been done in response to the
comments. Give a brief description of the changes made in response to
the comment, and give the reviewers and editor a pointer to the changes
in the revised manuscript.
Along with the revised manuscript, authors may be asked by the handling
editor to provide an annotated
version that highlights the changes made to the earlier version of the
manuscript. This can be done easily with the "track changes" or
"record changes" option available in modern word processors.
