The editorial process consists of two stages:

1. Preliminary Review

Submissions are screened by the editorial team to ensure relevance to the conference scope, formatting compliance, language quality, originality, and plagiarism screening. Papers failing these criteria will be rejected.

2. Peer Review

Manuscripts passing preliminary screening are evaluated by 2–3 independent reviewers based on:

• Technical quality and scientific rigor
• Originality and contribution to the field
• Clarity of presentation and structure
• Relevance to conference themes

Possible decisions include:

• Accept
• Accept with Minor Revisions
• Major Revisions Required
• Reject

Authors must address reviewer comments thoroughly and include them at the end of the revised manuscript. Additional review rounds may be conducted where necessary.
