The review cycle is very pleasing: submitted (11.27), firstly the editor reviewed it, then it was under review, and then we waited for reviewers to be assigned (12.24). Then, Awaiting Reviewer Scores (started from 12.24). This was equivalent to spending one month for the external review and scoring.

I had two articles reviewed here. The first one was assigned for review in May 2018, submitted in July 2018, and revised in December 2018; the second review notice received in January 2019, review comments returned in March 2019, and review comments received in July 2019. Two reviewers; manuscript accepted. The second paper was assigned for review in March 2018, submitted in June 2018, and revised in September 2018; the second review notice received in September 2018, review comments returned in November 2018, and review comments received in July 2019. Four reviewers; manuscript rejected. This journal can be said to be extremely slow, with the second review for 7 to 8 months.

Very difficult. From submission to acceptance, it lasted for one year and three months, with four revisions. The editor played an arbitration role. The journal focuses on novelty, practicality, and emphasizes the contrast with articles of the same theme.

Has anyone recently heard from SE to EIC? I have been waiting for 10 days and still haven't received any updates.

I see that some have to wait 1-2 months, the efficiency is very low.

All reviewers must accept it before it can move on to the next reviewer waiting for their score.

Can anyone tell me why this status is taking so long? Are there not enough reviewers available?

How long does it generally take for SE? I am in the third round, and I have been waiting for SE for 7 days.

@chengyanghi, I have been a software engineer for 6 days now, but I feel slow in every round. I see everyone else working quickly.

Jump to the first day of SE.

(0) Thank | chengyanghi

I'm not sure, maybe we don't need to give it to the reviewers? How long have you been working as an SE?

(0) Thank | AllAccepted

What does it mean when it goes directly from "Under Review" to "Awaiting SE Recommendation" after rework?

This is my third round. Thank you, bro.

Just wait a little longer, it's actually faster than most people's. Wishing you a good outcome~

My TE4 issue has been resolved, but my SE has been unchanged for another five days. Sigh.

Yes, it is common for holidays to be generally slower.
