This allows the scientific community to view, download, distribution of an article in any medium, provided that the original work is properly cited, under the term of “Creative Commons Attribution License”.

The process includes our maintenance, submission and peer review systems and international editing, publication and submission to global indexing and tracking organisations and archiving to allow instant access to the whole article and associated supplementary documents.
