FAQ

Can this engineering shell be the final journal PDF?
No—it is for drafting. Switch to the target journal’s live template and check anonymity, section type, and reference style before submit.
How do I pick a concrete journal?
Match section scope to your question/method, then check recent topics, review time, and extension policy. Live calls beat hearsay lists.
Can a conference short expand to a Chinese journal?
Often yes with a clear delta; some journals refuse papers already in an ISBN proceedings. State the extension in the cover note.
