Bentham Online Journal Management System (MPS) Back
Online Manuscript Submission and Tracking System:
The Manuscript Processing System (MPS) is a web-based submission and tracking platform developed by Bentham Science Publishers for efficient, fast, and cost-effective processing of submitted manuscripts. MPS has been designed to enable step-by-step online processing and tracking of manuscripts for authors, editors, and the publisher, from submission to acceptance and final reproduction.
MPS
Introduction
MPS is a user-friendly system that can be conveniently operated. The system allows rapid and easy submission of original and revised manuscripts and indicates their status throughout the submission process. Authors who want to submit a paper must register and create an MPS account, selecting their desired journal from the available list during registration
Authors may also search for a journal by typing relevant keywords into the search bar (as indicated by the arrow on the homepage).
Each manuscript submission will be followed by a confirmation e-mail to the corresponding author. Authors can log onto the MPS at any time to view the status of their manuscripts. The system will notify the corresponding author by e-mail once a decision has been made on the peer-reviewed manuscript.

Peer-Reviewing and Editorial Decision:

Interested reviewers can accept or decline the offer. Reviewers who accept to review the manuscript can submit their comments online.
Authors receive a peer-review completion notification with the editorial decision by e-mail. The authors may retrieve the reviewers' comments from the MPS.
