摘要：The purpose of this Editorial is to introduce a significant change in the way that EJKM will publish articles. As ofthis issue, the EJKM is entering into what is known as a “continuous publishing” mode, whereby we publishaccepted papers as soon as possible in the current journal issue. Hence, this new issue begins with just twopapers. As we accept more papers, we will add them to this issue for up to three months. Additionally, we willalso start publishing more special issues and releasing them as soon as they become available as an articlecollection.For our authors, the change benefits them because soon after we accept your paper, it will undergo aproofreading and typesetting phase, and soon appear in an issue. For most academics, the time that theirarticle appears in print is the time that it counts for their university and national performance managementsystems. Thus, the changes we are making will help speed up the process from when an author submits apaper to when it appears in print.
