ICMAC Editorial Process
Peer Review Process
All manuscripts are reviewed first by the Editor and Associate Editors, who will decide if the paper:
- Follows the Aim and Scope of ICMAC. Manuscripts which do not follow the Aim and Scope of ICMAC will be rejected.
- Meets the requirements of the Paper Submission guidelines. Manuscripts that do not meet the requirements will be returned to the corresponding authors for revisions.
Manuscripts that fulfil these two conditions will be sent anonymously to two external reviewers of the Conference Proceedings for review. All manuscripts received will be reviewed through a double-blind peer review system.
Review Process
- Manuscripts as assessed for originality, topicality, quality, academic rigour and relevance.
Manuscripts may be rejected, accepted with revisions or accepted without revisions:
- Minor Revisions Manuscripts will be accepted with no further revisions as soon as revisions are completed.
- Major Revisions Manuscripts will be re-evaluated by one of the first reviewers within 30 days of the revised submission.
- Rejection Manuscripts that are rejected for plagiarism (containing 20% or more text copied verbatim) will not be re-considered. Manuscripts that are rejected for other reasons will be re-considered at editorial discretion.
Average Review Time will be 30-45 days from the date of submission. Articles that are accepted will be scheduled for publication in the next annual issue of the Conference Proceedings.
