 The proposal should list the title of the State-of-the-Art Review and include a list of authors and
their affiliations.
 The proposal should be in a single-column format.

Content:

A State-of-the-Art Review proposal should define the field being covered and represent a new
perspective to the readers. Authors should explain their expertise and the depth and breadth of
coverage in the article they hope to write.

The following items should be addressed in the proposal:

 Define the area of the field covered.


 Does this review represent a new perspective?
 Explain expertise of authors on the topic/define knowledge area.
 Explain depth and breadth of coverage that you expect to summarize.
 Does the review discuss future applications of the area covered?
 Is the review organized by members of a task committee?

Article Description:

State-of-the-Art Review articles are full-length papers that provide timely, in-depth treatment of specific
issues relevant to the journal topics. These reviews must provide a complete survey of the state of
practice being examined as well as leave the reader feeling as though they are up to date on the current
practices in the field on the given topic. A State-of-the-Art Review should include an extensive literature
review of the most recent and relevant studies as well as perspective on the history of practice and the
importance of the field.

Authors submitting State-of-the-Art Review articles must submit a proposal for the article initially to be
reviewed by the chief editor or a member of the editorial board, and if approved, authors will be invited
to submit the full article to go through peer review.
