Aims and Scope
Information Sciences will publish original, innovative and creative research results. A smaller number of timely tutorial and surveying contributions will be published from time to time.

The first time, it only took one month for the editor to put it under review. It was a pleasant surprise, but then the "required review completed" process may last for another month, so this journal is still quite slow. Encountered an extremely difficult reviewer who repeatedly asked unrelated questions and said the article was confusing. I almost wanted to send an email to the editor, but in the end, this reviewer only asked two minor questions, which were completely ignored by the editor and the article was directly accepted. Even the editor couldn't bear it. Thumbs up to the editor!! Hope the impact factor can steadily increase!
Wishing everyone smooth and successful acceptances!!
The first submission was made on September 14, 2020 and November 30, 2020, but it was rejected. The reasons were that some references were missing, the grammar was poor, and the readability was very low.
Then, a round after round of revisions began. In fact, it was resubmitted at the end of March, but there was a system error at that time, and the co-author did not receive the confirmation email. They were constantly negotiating with the editor, who had a good attitude. Finally, the system showed the resubmission date as May.
The resubmission was made on March 4, 2021, but the system showed May 4, 2021.
The first feedback date was July 5, 2021, requiring major revisions. The revised version was submitted on August 15.
They waited for the editor's feedback on September 15.
The second feedback date was October 3, requiring minor revisions. The revised version was submitted on November 5.
They received the awaited editor's feedback on November 12.
They agreed to accept it on December 12.
They agreed to the related documents on December 16.
The journal website still showed the unmodified format of the paper on December 18.
The proof was submitted on December 21.
