Decision-Making Process
ECRL prioritizes technical accuracy and rapid dissemination through a structured evaluation of all engineering and computing manuscripts.
1. Initial Submission Screening
-
Check: Formatting, technical diagrams, and Turnitin index (<15% similarity).
-
Scope: The Section Editor verifies relevance to current engineering and computing challenges.
2. Peer Review Process
-
Assignment: Double-blind review by technical experts in the relevant sub-discipline.
-
Criteria: Technical depth, innovation, replicability, and ethical citation practices.
3. Editorial Evaluation and Final Decision
-
Synthesis: The editor reviews the technical consensus to issue an informed final decision.
4. Revisions and Resubmission
-
Rigor: Technical revisions may undergo a second round of review to verify software or mathematical results.
5. Appeals: Technical appeals are reviewed by a specialized member of the board.
6. Post-Acceptance: Professional proofreading ensures mathematical and technical accuracy before final release.
7. Ethical Oversight: Commitment to data integrity and the transparent reporting of experimental results.
