SWS Peer Review Process. Upholding Excellence in Scientific and Scholarly Publishing

Every submitted abstract, manuscript, and scholarly work undergoes a rigorous, double-blind peer review process via our internal Abstract & Manuscript Management Syste (AMMS). This ensures academic integrity, ethical transparency, and the highest standards of scientific publishing—whether for conference proceedings or peer-reviewed journals.

Full Paper Submission & Second-Stage Review

Authors must upload their full papers using the official SWS template, in all required formats, via the My Article section in their profiles.
Submissions that:
       - Do not correspond to the accepted abstract
       - Fail to follow formatting or ethical guidelines
       - Lack sufficient scientific quality or structure
       → may be returned or rejected.
Each full paper undergoes a second peer review, focusing on:
       - Scientific coherence
       - Referencing standards
       - Language clarity
       - Structural integrity
       - Ethical and academic rigor
Authors may be asked to revise and resubmit their paper based on reviewer recommendations.

Copyediting & Proof Approval

Once accepted, manuscripts are professionally copyedited for grammar, consistency, formatting, and clarity. Authors will be provided with proofs and may suggest final corrections.
The SWS editorial team reserves the right to:
       - Perform style-editing and formatting
       - Enforce page limits and structural requirements
       - Finalize the publication layout for both digital and print editions

Conference Presentation Policy (Applicable for Conference Proceedings Only)

For conference-related publications, all accepted papers must be presented in person by the registered Lecturer (corresponding author) at the respective event.
       - Co-Lecturers or Co-Authors are welcome to join, provided they are also registered and actively involved in the research.
       - Authors are responsible for the scientific and visual quality of both their publication and oral/poster presentation.

We believe that peer review is not just a process—it is a responsibility. It safeguards the integrity of our scientific discourse, encourages constructive dialogue, and honors the collective mission of our global academic and artistic community. Whether published in our conference proceedings or peer-reviewed journals, your work will be reviewed, refined, and presented with the dignity it deserves.
