To maintain the highest possible standards of quality, and based on a goal of timely publication, only a small fraction of submitted papers can be expected to be accepted. The journal strives for a fast turnaround in the review process. Papers are assigned to an Associate Editor, who makes a publication recommendation on the basis of a detailed and careful evaluation by at least two referees. Evaluation criteria used include originality, substance, and quality of exposition.
For additional information see the separate page Aim and Scope; Editorial Board.

A typical paper submitted to MCSS consists of about 20 pages of LaTeX in 11 points article style with a maximum of 25 of such pages, 50 double-spaced typewritten pages, or an equivalent. If a paper is longer than the maximum number of pages then the authors are requested to provide a justification for the added length in their cover message. Associate Editors and reviewers are instructed to pay careful attention to conciseness as an important characteristic of good mathematical exposition.
Authors wishing to inquire about the scope of the journal or the suitability of a particular topic are encouraged to contact the Editors informally, preferably by electronic mail, prior to submission.
