The Proceedings uses an internal university system “e-University platform of the Technical University of Sofia” to manage the peer-review process. If you haven't submitted a paper to this journal before, you will need to create an account by click on the word "Registration". Please read the guidelines given in Section Instruction for Authors and then submit your manuscript by click on the word "Login". The manuscripts submitted electronically are distributed by the Editor-in-Chief to the Associate Editors, who are responsible for the selection of reviewers and for the reviewer reports in the corresponding thematic areas. Each manuscript is reviewed by two independent reviewers. In case of inconsistent review results, Associate editors may invite additional reviewers. When preparing revised versions of their manuscripts, the authors have to mark in a different color in the texts the corrections made, according to the remarks and recommendations of the reviewers. Also, at the end of each revised manuscript, the authors have to provide a response to all remarks and/or recommendations of each reviewer. This will greatly facilitate the work of the reviewers and improve the quality of the published papers.

The final decision to publish is made by the Editor-in-Chief. Moreover, the Proceedings of the Technical University of Sofia is an internationally renowned peer-reviewed journal with rapid-communication, that returns a response to the authors regarding the publication of original research papers within two weeks.
