ScoreMeaningRecommendation
+2Strong accept — significant contributionAccept
+1Accept — good quality and relevantAccept
0Borderline — requires improvementMajor revision
−1Reject — lacks clarity or contributionReject
−2Strong reject — out of scope / poor workReject

Key evaluation criteria

  • Originality & Novelty
  • Technical Soundness
  • Relevance to Conference Scope
  • Clarity of Presentation
  • Significance of Results

Final acceptance decisions are made by the Technical Program Chairs, based on reviewer feedback and recommendations.

Manuscript Scope

Papers should clearly articulate technical depth, quantitative analysis, and practical relevance, answering how and why the work represents a significant advancement.

Out of scope: purely qualitative papers — case studies, managerial impact without a technical basis, policy discussions, or economic models — will not be considered.

Types of Articles

  • Original Research Paper — a detailed manuscript covering new research findings with complete technical methodology and results.
  • Review Paper — a critical review of existing work offering insights and future directions within SET-2027 topics.

After Acceptance

  • Final submission: upload the camera-ready version incorporating reviewer suggestions; revisions should be within 10% of the manuscript content.
  • Copyright transfer: required via electronic submission; authors are notified of the process link by email.
  • Proceedings: final versions are compiled into the peer-reviewed conference proceedings, subject to meeting the conference's scope and quality requirements.
  • The organizers reserve the right to exclude a paper from the proceedings if it is not presented at the conference.

Authorship Guidelines

  • Co-authors: all authors must have contributed meaningfully; no author additions or removals are allowed post-acceptance unless approved.
  • Corresponding author: handles all submission-related communication and confirms that all co-authors have reviewed the manuscript.

Ethics & Integrity

  • All manuscripts are checked for plagiarism using CrossCheck (iThenticate).
  • Authors must avoid duplicate submission, plagiarism, and self-plagiarism.
