8.2. Editorial assessment
Once your manuscript has passed the initial manuscript check, it will be assigned to an Assistant Editor, and then the
Editor-in-Chief, or an Editorial Board member in the case of a conflict of interest, will be notified of the submission
and invited to review. Regarding Special Issue paper, after passing the initial check, the manuscript will be successively
assigned to an Assistant Editor, Guest Editor, and then to the Editor-in-Chief, or an Editorial Board member in the case
of conflict of interest for the Editor-in-Chief to review. The Editor-in-Chief, or the Editorial Board member may reject
manuscripts that they deem highly unlikely to pass peer review without further consultation. Once your manuscript has
passed the editorial assessment, the Assistant Editor will start to organize peer-review.

8.3. Process
CDR operates a single-blind review process. The technical quality of the research described in the manuscript is assessed
by a minimum of two independent expert reviewers. The Editor-in-Chief is responsible for the final decision regarding
acceptance or rejection of the manuscript. For controversial manuscripts, the Editor-in-Chief is responsible for making the
final decision.

8.4. Decisions
Your research will be judged on scientific soundness only, not on its perceived impact as judged by Editors or referees.
There are three possible decisions: Accept (your study satisfies all publication criteria), Invitation to Revise (more work
is required to satisfy all criteria), and Reject (your study fails to satisfy key criteria and it is highly unlikely that further
work can address its shortcomings).
