ADVANCED ENGINEERING INFORMATICS

Submitted in the middle and late March, reviewed by the editor after half a month, and sent for review in mid-June. The notice of the review results was given in mid-June. The first review lasted nearly 3 months. The revision deadline was 2 months, and I returned close to the deadline. The revised paper was sent for review the next day, and the notice of the second review results was given exactly 1 month later. Due to busy work, I returned after 5 weeks of minor revisions and submitted it on the same day. I received the acceptance notice 3 weeks later. The entire review process lasted from mid to late March to early November, undergoing one major revision and one minor revision, taking approximately 7 and a half months in total. The first review lasted nearly 3 months, the second review lasted 1 month, and the third review lasted 3 weeks. Due to busy work during the usual time, the paper modification process took a long time (2 months for major revisions and 5 weeks for minor revisions), thus extending the overall review period.
