EDITORIAL POLICIES AND PEER REVIEW

All manuscripts will be subjected to a single-blind peer review process, involving two independent reviews.

During the review process, author(s) may obtain all necessary information about the status of the review of the manuscript by accessing their EasyChair account.

The submitted full paper will be reviewed by at least two independent reviewers on: suitability for one of the topics of the conference; scientific content and level, the relevance of presented results; correspondence with the template, English usage, and grammar.

Review comments will be communicated to the author(s). The author(s) must make the required changes and send a final draft as requested before the prescribed day.

The editorial board will take into account the reviewers comments when deciding the publication of the manuscripts.

When a manuscript is rejected by only one reviewer, the editors will contact a third reviewer to request his opinion about the manuscript.

The corresponding author is responsible for ensuring that the article's publication has been approved by all other co-authors and takes responsibility for the paper during submission and peer review.
