Ethical & Integrity Standards

Camera Ready Verification

• Accepted papers undergo a final layout and reference check by the Editorial Office.
• Non-compliance with template or formatting will result in delays or removal from proceedings.

Presentation & Publication Requirements

• A maximum of six authors are permitted per paper.
• At least one author must register and present the paper (onsite or online) for inclusion in the proceedings.
• No-show papers will not be forwarded to the publisher.

ITSEMC-2026 is committed to maintaining the highest standards of scholarly publishing through a rigorous peer-review process. All submissions undergo a double-blind peer review to ensure integrity, quality, and academic relevance.

Review Process

• Initial Screening: All manuscripts are checked for compliance with submission guidelines and scope. Plagiarism is screened using Turnitin (allowed similarity <15%). Content should not appear AI-generated.
• Double-Blind Review: Each manuscript is reviewed by at least two independent reviewers. Authors' and reviewers' identities are concealed from each other. A third reviewer is appointed in case of a significant conflict.
• Review Criteria: Reviewers evaluate manuscripts based on originality and novelty, technical quality and methodological rigor, relevance to conference themes, clarity, structure and language quality, and references to recent relevant literature.
• Review Decisions: Each manuscript is assigned one of: Accept (Minor Revision), Revise & Resubmit (Major Revision), or Reject.
• Revision & Resubmission: Authors must address reviewer comments in a detailed response. Revised manuscripts undergo final editorial scrutiny before acceptance.

Reviewer Ethics & Responsibilities

• Maintain confidentiality and neutrality throughout the review process.
• Disclose any conflict of interest to the editorial team.
• Provide constructive, evidence-based, and respectful feedback.
• Avoid using manuscript content for personal benefit.

Editorial Oversight

• All decisions are coordinated by the ITSEMC-2026 Editorial Committee.
• The Chief Editors ensure quality control and adherence to ethical standards.

Appeals & Re-Reviews

ITSEMC-2026 upholds strict ethical standards and does not tolerate plagiarism or academic misconduct in any form. All submissions must represent original work that has not been published or submitted elsewhere.

Plagiarism Screening Procedure

• Detection Tool: All manuscripts will be screened using Turnitin.
• Similarity Threshold: The acceptable similarity index is less than 15% (excluding references, quotes, and bibliography). Content should not appear AI-generated.
• Immediate Rejection: Submissions with similarity index >25% will be automatically rejected. Identified cases of copied content from previously published works (including self-plagiarism) will not be allowed.

Types of Academic Misconduct

• Direct plagiarism — copy-paste from other sources without citation
• Self-plagiarism — reusing own previously published work without proper referencing
• Fabrication or falsification of data
• Improper paraphrasing without attribution

Author Responsibilities

• Authors must ensure that their manuscripts are free from plagiarism and properly cite all sources.
• Authors are required to declare that their submission is original and unpublished.
• If third-party content (figures, tables, etc.) is used, authors must obtain necessary copyright permissions.

Consequences of Plagiarism

Appeals Process

Authors who disagree with a plagiarism decision may appeal in writing within 7 days of notification. Appeals will be reviewed by the Editorial Committee, and their decision will be final.

Poster and technical sessions carry equal standing. Assignment to a poster session is not a lower tier of acceptance. Papers in poster sessions and papers in technical (oral) sessions are treated identically for submission to Advances in Computing, Control, and Telecommunication Technologies, and both are subject to the same condition: the paper must be presented at the conference by a registered author.

The two formats differ only in how the presentation is delivered:
• Technical Session — one scheduled presentation to a seated audience, followed by questions.
• Poster Session — A full 45-minute session at the poster board, during which the presenter gives a short 3–5 minute walkthrough repeatedly to successive visitors, allowing extended one-to-one discussion of the work.

Purpose:These instructions apply to all papers assigned to poster presentation sessions at ITSEMC 2026. Authors are requested to follow the requirements below to ensure a consistent, professional, and interactive poster session.

1. Poster Format and Size

Posters must be prepared in A0 size (84.1 cm × 118.9 cm / 841 mm × 1189 mm) in portrait orientation.

• Each poster must be printed as one single sheet. Multiple A4/A3 sheets assembled on the board are not permitted.
• Authors are requested to use the official ITSEMC 2026 Poster Template provided by the Organizing Committee.
• Lightweight matte paper suitable for mounting is recommended. Rigid materials such as foam board should not be used unless approved in advance by the Organizing Committee.

2. Poster Content

The poster should provide a concise and visually clear presentation of the work reported in the accepted paper. It should complement, rather than reproduce, the full manuscript. The following information must be displayed prominently:

• Paper title
• Authors’ names and institutional affiliations
• Paper ID
• Contact information of the corresponding or presenting author

3. Readability and Design

The technical content should normally include the research motivation or background, objective, methodology, key results, discussion, and major conclusions. Authors are encouraged to use figures, diagrams, tables, photographs, and other graphical elements instead of large blocks of text.:

• Text, figures, tables, and captions should be clearly readable from approximately 1.5–2 metres away.
• Use clear headings and a logical visual flow.
• Use high-resolution figures and concise captions.
• Highlight the main contribution, key findings, and conclusions clearly.
• As a general principle, a conference participant should be able to understand the main contribution and conclusions of the work within approximately five minutes of viewing the poster.
• All poster content must be prepared in English.

4. Poster Board Assignment

Each poster will be assigned a specific Poster ID / Board Number according to the ITSEMC 2026 technical programme. Presenters must use only the board allocated to their paper.
The poster board number, session date, presentation time, and display area will be announced in the final conference programme and/or at the poster presentation area.

5. Poster Installation and Mounting

Presenters are responsible for printing and bringing their posters to the conference venue. Posters must be installed on the assigned poster board before the beginning of the scheduled poster session.

• The Organizing Committee will provide double-sided adhesive tape or other approved mounting material at the poster area.
• Nails, push pins, staples, screws, glue, or any material that may damage the poster boards are strictly prohibited.
• Conference staff will provide reasonable assistance during poster installation.

The poster session is intended to be an interactive scientific discussion rather than a formal oral presentation.

6. Attendance and Poster Presentation

At least one registered author or approved presenter must be present at the assigned poster board during the scheduled poster session.

• Remain available at the poster during the assigned session.
• Briefly introduce the work to interested participants and respond to questions.
• Participate actively in technical discussions with conference delegates.
• Prepare a concise 3–5 minute verbal overview covering the motivation, methodology, principal results, and main contribution of the work.

The poster session is intended to be an interactive scientific discussion rather than a formal oral presentation.

7. ITSEMC 2026 No-Show Policy for Poster Presentations

• Engage professionally and courteously with conference participants.
• A paper classified as a no-show will be handled in accordance with the ITSEMC 2026 conference publication policy and will not be submitted for inclusion in Advances in Computing, Control, and Telecommunication Technologies after the conference.
• If the designated presenter is unable to attend, the authors should arrange for a co-author or another qualified substitute presenter and notify the Organizing Committee as early as possible.
• Requests for exceptional arrangements due to documented emergency circumstances will be considered by the Organizing Committee on a case-by-case basis. Approval must be obtained; simply displaying the poster without an attending presenter does not automatically constitute an approved exception.

8. Poster Session Etiquette

At least one registered author or approved presenter must be present at the assigned poster board during the scheduled poster session.

• A poster paper may be classified as a no-show if the poster is not displayed and/or no registered author or approved presenter is present during the assigned poster session.
• Supplementary materials, QR codes, or links to research resources may be included when directly related to the presented work and when they do not obscure essential poster content.
• If the designated presenter is unable to attend, the authors should arrange for a co-author or another qualified substitute presenter and notify the Organizing Committee as early as possible.

9. Poster Removal

Authors are responsible for removing their posters after completion of the designated poster display period. Posters should not be removed before the end of the assigned poster session.
The final removal deadline will be communicated by the Organizing Committee. Posters remaining after the specified deadline may be removed by conference staff, and the Organizing Committee cannot guarantee storage or return of posters left at the venue.

10. Printing Responsibility

Each presenter is responsible for arranging the printing of the poster and bringing the printed poster to ITSEMC 2026. Unless otherwise announced by the Organizing Committee, authors should not assume that an on-site printing service will be available at the conference venue.

Final reminder. Presenters are advised to check the ITSEMC 2026 Final Programme for their Paper ID /  board assignment  (3 Digit Code next to Presenter) , session date, presentation time, and poster display area.
