The purpose of these instructions is to clarify your responsibilities as author. Please read and follow them carefully. Doing so will ensure that the publication of your manuscript is as rapid and efficient as possible. The Publisher reserves the right to return manuscripts that are not prepared in accordance with these instructions.

Work submitted for publication must be original, previously unpublished, and not under consideration for publication elsewhere.

Before submitting, please also consult the author checklist to make sure you are submitting a complete and final manuscript.
