Reviewer Appointment
Reviewers are appointed by the Conference Scientific Committee based on their academic qualifications, research expertise, publication record, and professional experience relevant to the conference themes and tracks.
Each manuscript is normally assigned to at least two independent reviewers. Where additional expertise is required or reviewer recommendations differ significantly, the Conference Scientific Committee may appoint an additional reviewer or Associate Editor to ensure a balanced and informed evaluation.
Reviewers are expected to accept assignments only when they possess the necessary expertise and can complete the review objectively and within the specified timeframe.
Artificial Intelligence Policy for Reviewers
ICIEDI recognises that artificial intelligence tools may assist reviewers in improving the clarity or grammar of their review reports. However, reviewers remain fully responsible for the content, accuracy, and professional judgement reflected in their evaluations.
Reviewers must not upload confidential manuscripts, supplementary files, or unpublished research data into publicly accessible generative AI platforms or any system that may retain, reuse, or disclose submitted content.
Artificial intelligence must not be used to generate scientific evaluations, publication recommendations, or independent scholarly judgement. The assessment of originality, methodology, scientific contribution, ethical compliance, and publication suitability must always represent the reviewer's own independent academic judgement.
Reviewer Recognition
ICIEDI recognises the valuable contribution of reviewers to the advancement of high-quality research and scholarly excellence. To acknowledge their contribution, reviewers may receive:
- Official Certificate of Reviewing
- Recognition as an ICIEDI Reviewer
- Eligibility for the Outstanding Reviewer Award
- Consideration for appointment to future Scientific Committees and Editorial Boards
- Opportunities to contribute to future ICIEDI conferences and collaborative research initiatives
