Peer Review Process

The ICES conference follows a double-blind review process for papers received for the conference. All papers are initially checked for similarity by the Turnitin Plagiarism Software, and all articles that pass the plagiarism checking will be submitted through the Scientific Committee members to 2–3 reviewers for rating based on specific reports. Includes important questions that are used by many publishers to rate the papers that are submitted to them based on our reviewers’ reporting forms and decisions, and the editor decides whether the paper is either accepted, accepted with a minor or major review, or rejected.

FULL PAPER SUBMISSION GUIDELINES

Use Times New Roman: 10 pts fonts for the main text and all additional parts except endnotes and index (where you should use 8pts), and paper headings (see below). All text should be single-spaced. The paper length should be up to 5000 words, including abstract and references.

To ensure that there are no extra spaces in the document, use your software’s find and replace command to substitute all double spaces for single spaces. Repeat this procedure until no double spaces are found.

The referencing system you use should comply with the Harvard reference system style.
It is recommended that you use JPEG files for producing grayscale images or photographs with a resolution of 150 dpi. All images, including photographs, must be included in the main Word or other files submitted. Take into account the size of the page when including images (115mm x 180mm). Your image will have to be resized if it is too large or too small, and this can prove problematic in certain cases.

Following the conference, all papers will pass through the DOUBLE-BLIND PEER REVIEW process. After the review process, which usually takes up to two weeks, you will get feedback from our reviewers. In case of positive feedback, you will get further registration instructions via e-mail. In case of a reviewer’s appeal for the paper modification, you are granted two weeks to apply the required changes.
