Editorial Introduction
With
the release of the latest edition of 2015, we begin the countdown to the New
Year. As it can be seen in the data and the graphs below, 2015 is being a year
of improvement, achievements and accomplishments for our Journal and for all
the colleagues who believed in this project.
We also would like to wish you all
our Season's Greetings.
This
issue of the Independent Journal of Management & production (IJM&P)
features a selection of articles submitted and revised until October 2015.
Observed that works are the fruit of research and publications of
undergraduate, postgraduate and entrepreneurs.
It is important to mention that all the
works are showed without any kind of payment. All of them are published free
from payments or taxes.
The
publication also counts on the work of researchers from various parts of the
world, which have undergone a process of peer review.
As
chief editor of IJM&P, I am indebted to all members of the editorial board
and reviewers, which contributed to achieving a very decent job during the
evaluation and revision. Moreover, that has contributed to the Journal in
recognition of the international scientific community.
In
addition, with all the authors, who trusted the results of their research and
publications to the scrutiny of editors and reviewers who are part of our
Journal.
The
first table presents how our collaborators, by their categories of study and
sex are.
