style="text-align: justify;">Peer-reviewing is of vital importance to ensure the scientific quality of conference papers. Papers submitted to ICSTTE are subject to transparent, unprejudiced and efficient peer review, which is carried out by dedicated editors (assumed by Program Chair, Program Co-Chair and committee members appointed by Conference Chair) and reviewers. <br/></p><p style="text-align: justify;">The editorial process of a paper consists of two parts: Initial Check and Peer Review. Note that, only full paper will be assigned for peer review. Abstracts submitted to ICSTTE are assessed by the Program Chair(s) to decide whether accept for the conference presentation.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">The paper will be sent to an editor for initial check. Once passing the initial check, it will be assigned to three reviewers of the relevant research areas for peer review. A minimum of three reviewers will carefully review the manuscript and report their recommendations to the editor. After authors’ revisions (if requested by the editor), the editor will make the ultimate acceptance or rejection decision for the paper. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">During the editorial process, conference support team take the responsibility of coordination between the publisher and authors, copyediting work and other necessary publication support.</p><p><br/></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Statements of Originality</strong></p><p><br/></p><p style="text-align: justify;">The conference firmly resists the plagiarism, self-plagiarism and other unethical behaviors. Any act of plagiarism is unacceptable, which is considered as a serious breach of professional conduct, with potentially severe ethical and legal consequences. Before submission, prospective authors are suggested to make a cross check to ensure that the similarity of manuscript is under 20% (better less than 15%). Meanwhile, please make sure that the similar contents are properly reused based on the checking report. Plagiarism is commonly defined as 'the use of others prior ideas, processes, results, or words without explicitly acknowledging the original author and source'. </p><p><br/></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Initial Check</strong></p><p><br/></p><p style="text-align: justify;">All submitted papers will undergo a thorough screening process to check for plagiarism, self-plagiarism, appropriate paper length, structure, relevance, and language proficiency. Only those papers that pass the Initial Check will proceed to the double-blind peer-review stage. Typically, authors can expect to receive Initial Check feedback within three working days.</p><p><br/></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Double-Blind Peer Review</strong></p><p><br/></p><p style="text-align: justify;">The authors' names, affiliations, acknowledgments and other related personal information will be separated from main content before the manuscript is sent to double-blind peer review.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Each paper will be reviewed by at least three reviewers, but usually by three or more to review 'Novelty and Originality, Scientific Soundness, Importance and Impact on the Research Area, Relevance to the Conference and Completeness of Presentation'.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Each reviewer will be assigned to not exceed 5 papers and given 2-4 weeks for one paper reviewing.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">The reviewer is accountable for their reviewing recommendation by providing the sufficient, substantial and well-founded comments that may help the authors to optimize the paper. In addition, the reviewer is also probably asked to answer a series of questions by Program Committee relevant to the review. After receiving the review comments, the authors are entitled to the rebuttal and its feedback. </p><p><br/></p><p></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Criteria</strong></p><p><br/></p><p style="text-align: justify;">Papers accepted to the conference will be involved in the conference proceedings and publish with a collaborative publisher. Although publishable criteria may have slight difference among publishers, widely-accepted sets of criteria have been enforced in the conference for paper selection and publication to ensure high-quality publication.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Language</strong></p><p style="text-align: justify;">The manuscripts submitted to the conference should be written in English, which is required to be inclusive, appropriate and understandable for editors, reviewers and future readers.
