Review Process

Systematic manuscript evaluation and editorial standards

πŸ’» Integrated Conference Management System

For ICoTriCE 2026, the FrappeHub system is used as an integrated conference management platform to facilitate the entire manuscript handling process, beginning with abstract submission, followed by full paper submission, peer review, revision, and final acceptance.

Authors can submit their abstracts through the system, after which the organizing committee conducts an initial screening or evaluation. Upon abstract acceptance, authors are invited to upload their full papers for further assessment.

The submitted manuscripts are then assigned to reviewers through the platform, enabling a systematic peer-review process. Reviewers provide their comments and recommendations, which are compiled by the committee to determine whether the paper should be accepted, revised and resubmitted, or rejected.

The system also supports the submission of camera-ready manuscripts and related conference documentation, ensuring efficient management of the entire publication workflow.

Publication Workflow Stages

To ensure the highest publication standards, all manuscripts will undergo the following process:

Stage 1

Initial Editorial Screening

  • Scope suitability assessment
  • Originality evaluation
  • Compliance checking
Stage 2

Peer Review

  • Single-reviewer evaluation
  • Minimum two independent reviewers per manuscript
Stage 3

Revision

  • Authors revise manuscripts based on reviewer comments
  • Editorial assessment of revised submissions
Stage 4

Language Editing

  • Professional proofreading
  • Grammar and language verification
Stage 5

Final Formatting

  • Reference verification
  • Figure and table quality checking

πŸ” Plagiarism Checking Policy

A plagiarism screening policy shall be implemented using the Turnitin platform (Turnitin.com). Authors are required to attach a Turnitin similarity report with each manuscript submission.

Acceptable Range: A similarity index of 0–20% is considered acceptable.
Over 20% Limit: Manuscripts with a similarity index greater than 20% shall be returned to the authors for revision to reduce the similarity index before further consideration.

πŸ€– Generative AI, Figures & Artwork Policy
