The International Journal of Emerging Digital Systems and Engineering (IJEDSE) recognizes peer review as an essential component of scientific quality assurance, research integrity, and responsible scholarly publishing. The journal’s peer-review framework is designed to evaluate the originality, technical validity, methodological rigor, and academic relevance of manuscripts submitted in digital systems, computer engineering, intelligent technologies, and related engineering disciplines.
The journal’s editorial procedures are informed by internationally recognized principles of scholarly publishing, including relevant guidance from the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE). Manuscript evaluation emphasizes scientific objectivity, confidentiality, editorial independence, and constructive scholarly assessment.
All submitted manuscripts undergo an initial editorial assessment before being considered for external review to verify scope alignment, scientific contribution, and compliance with ethical standards.
Independent technical experts evaluate submitted engineering manuscripts across seven principal criteria:
The novelty, significance, and distinct academic contribution of the proposed engineering research.
The accuracy and correctness of engineering designs, computational models, algorithms, and system architectures.
The appropriateness of research methods, experimental procedures, simulation techniques, and analytical frameworks.
The adequacy of performance metrics, validation procedures, comparative assessments, and statistical analyses.
The clarity and completeness of system configurations, implementation procedures, datasets, and experimental setups.
Compliance with data protection, participant privacy, intellectual property, and scientific integrity standards.
The clarity, logical coherence, structural accuracy, and completeness of the manuscript text, figures, and references.
| Accept | The manuscript satisfies the journal’s scientific, technical, and editorial requirements for immediate publication processing. |
| Minor Revision | Limited modifications are necessary to improve technical clarity, structural presentation, or scientific reporting before final approval. |
| Major Revision | Substantial revisions are required to address methodological, experimental, analytical, or interpretive concerns, subject to re-evaluation. |
| Reject | The manuscript does not meet the journal’s standards for originality, technical validity, scientific quality, or ethical compliance. |
Reviewers are expected to maintain scientific integrity, objectivity, and strict confidentiality throughout the evaluation process:
Authors may submit reasoned appeals concerning editorial decisions when substantive scientific misunderstandings or procedural irregularities are identified. Appeals must include clear explanations supported by relevant technical or scientific evidence.
Editorial decisions are based strictly on scientific merit, technical accuracy, methodological quality, ethical compliance, and scope alignment. Publication charges, commercial considerations, or personal affiliations never influence acceptance outcomes.
Commitment to Peer Review Quality: The International Journal of Emerging Digital Systems and Engineering seeks to maintain a fair, confidential, and scientifically rigorous peer-review process that supports the responsible dissemination of research in digital systems and engineering technologies.
