Paper Selection and Publishing Process:

a. Submission Acknowledgement
When you submit a manuscript, the editor or editorial assistant sends an e-mail confirmation to the submission's author within one to three working days. If you fail to receive this confirmation, please check your bulk email box or contact the editorial assistant by official email.
b. Basic Review
The editor or editorial assistant determines whether the manuscript fits the conference's focus and scope. Next a check for the similarity rate is done, any manuscripts out of the conference's scope or containing plagiarism, including self-plagiarism, are rejected.
c. Peer Review
We use a double-blind system for peer review; both reviewers' and authors' identities remain anonymous. The submitted manuscript will be reviewed by at least two experts: one editorial staff member as well as one to three external reviewers. The review process may take about 1 month.
d. Decision Is Made
The decision to accept or reject an article is based on the suggestions of reviewers. If differences of opinion occur between reviewers, the editor-in-chief will weigh all comments and arrive at a balanced decision based on all comments, or a second round of peer review may be initiated.
e. Notification of the Result of Review
The result of review will be sent to the corresponding author through email.
f. Registration Fee Is Paid
If the submission is accepted, the authors revise paper and pay the registration fee.
g. Final Manuscript Proofreading
Final manuscript will be sent to all registered authors for proofreading through email. Once the final manuscript is proofed and confirmed, no more changes are allowed. If authors fail to check and reply the proofreading emails within the required period, the Editors reserve the right to edit or make necessary changes on the manuscripts.
h. Plagiarism Detection
All confirmed manuscripts will be checked using CrossCheck or Turnitin. There will be high risk of being rejected for publication for manuscripts with 30% or higher duplication rate. Please avoid multiple, redundant or concurrent submission and high duplication rate of your manuscript.
i. E-copy Proceedings Are Mailed
After publication, one E-copy of the conference proceeding will be sent to the corresponding author.

The authors and readers will be notified and invited to visit our website for the newly published articles.
