It lasted 9 months. The first round a major revision was required, and the review comments were pertinent. Then there were 3 rounds of AQ; the main reason was that Associate Editor still mentioned some minor issues which were about the standardization of some terms. In general, in terms of the professionalism and responsibility of the review process, TIFs are equipped with the elements of top journals. Hope it gets better and better!

The field of information security and anti-counterfeiting is an emerging field, and the journals are also very new, but they are rising rapidly. Professionalism is strong, focusing on security, anti-counterfeiting and other fields. I have recently published one article. The first review is about 4 months.

The first trial is taking too long, now it seems that the journals have also slowed down.

On March 17th, I inquired about the status and was informed that it was already under review and assigned to an associate editor. The system now shows "in peer review" and the feedback is still pending.

@gogo Hello, friend, have you received the first review feedback?

Do your systems display AE and SAE? Why is it that when I log into the submission system, I only see EIC DE ADE and not AE and SAE?

Same question! After eight months of waiting, I finally got my AD status! Now, it's been three days, and I don't know how much longer I'll have to wait for the next steps!

So, big shot, how many days have you been running your ad?

Hello, has the status of your paper in peer review changed?

Hello everyone, I would like to ask: Is resubmission distributed slowly like the initial review, waiting a long time for DE, AE, etc., or is it allocated quickly to the original AE?

4.7 means awaiting AE decision
4.8 then back in peer review

What does it mean?

(0) Thank | thu369

Is it convenient to disclose the reason? Is it because the reviewer has changed?

I was also rejected for major repairs, which lasted nearly eleven months and involved two rounds of major repairs.

Will it still be rejected after the major overhaul?

Before, AE was quite fast, but this time the status keeps changing back and forth, so it has slowed down a lot.

How long does AE take to provide editorial comments? It has been over a month already.

It has been over a month and a week since AE, and we still haven't received the review comments. How long does it usually take for you to return the review comments?

I am a first-round minor revision and after the modifications, both AD and in peer appeared in the past two days. Just now, I only saw AD left. Is this journal so magical? I am too nervous.

My paper also underwent major revisions in the first round of review, and within about three days of awaiting a decision from the Associate Editor, it was reverted back to being in peer review.

(0) Thank | 躺不平又卷不动

So amazing? How can you have two states appear at the same time?

(0) Thank | 会飞的咸鱼456

My AD is also down, and now there are two states appearing, one is AD and the other is in peer. Both states are active at the same time, causing a lot of panic.

Are you sure? I heard that TDSC is very unreliable.

(0) Thank | 秀xxx儿

Did you submit it to a peer review again? It's possible. Generally speaking, if you reply to each comment based on the reviewer's feedback, there shouldn't be any major issues.

My article "Awaiting AE Decision" has been reverted back to "in peer review." It seems like there are opinions of rejection. This article is probably hanging by a thread for graduation.

No, I had two reviewers at the time, one accepted it and the second one just asked me to add an experiment, and finally, the only issue was that it took too long because of the large volume of submissions.
