Open accessDouble-blind peer reviewContinuous publication

Reviews in Emerging Technology and Applications (RETA) is a peer-reviewed, open-access journal dedicated exclusively to publishing high-quality systematic reviews, meta-analyses, and state-of-the-art scoping articles. The journal serves as a premier multidisciplinary platform mapping the rapid evolution of next-generation technologies and their critical applications across engineering, applied sciences, and interdisciplinary fields. RETA does not accept standalone original experimental papers, focusing entirely on comprehensive literature synthesis that consolidates existing knowledge, evaluates technological progress, and uncovers underlying research gaps, practical challenges, and future engineering directions.
