Evaluation Procedures and Statistical Data
Papers Selection Procedure
(Composed by e-discussion with the previous ISIICT’ PC Members)
Normally, each paper is evaluated by three different reviewers. Candidate papers are those having at least two acceptances. These candidates are classified, and the best top N papers are selected. N is fixed according to the total of received submissions and to the conference quality norms and constraints. For ISIICT09, the number of retained submission is 63. Only a maximum of 31% will be accepted (i.e., at most 20 papers).
Before starting the selection process, the last version of the papers selection procedure is sent to the actual PC members for advising and enhancement. The obtained version is applied, and the PC members are informed about this last version and its outcome (selected papers).
The main directives of the selection procedure are outlined bellow:
- Each paper must have at least two independent evaluations, for calling it "Completely Evaluated Paper" (CEP).
- Any CEP having two or more rejects will be summarily rejected.
- For any non summarily rejected CEP (NSRCEP), its mark is calculated as it follows:
(evaluation 1 * Reviewer1's self evaluation +
evaluation 2 * Reviewer2's self evaluation +
evaluation 3 * Reviewer3's self evaluation) / 3
Where:
Evaluationi = Totali (of the revieweri)
Reviewer's self evaluation = {low, medium, high} = {1, 2, 3} - The NSRCEP are then classified in two lists:
- Zero reject (ZR)
- One reject (OR)
- The N best papers are selected from the list ZR.
- If there is room, others papers are selected from the best of OR, in order to complete the fixed number (N).
- The authors will be intimated about the result immediately.
- Registration of a selected paper by at least one concerned authors in person is a fundamental requirement for publication in the proceedings and in eWiC Journal. So, consent may be sought by the Program Committee Chair from the authors of the selected papers whether they will register and present the paper or not. In case consent is negative for one or more authors, corresponding number of new selected papers may be accommodated to update the list of accepted papers.
