Double-Blind Reveiw

The authors' names, affiliations, acknowledgments and other related personal information will be deleted or covered before the papers are sent to double-blind peer review. 

The papers will be reviewed by at least two reviewers, but usually by three or more to consider their: Relevance, Originality, Technical Quality, Significance and Presentation.

Generally speaking, each reviewer will be assigned to not exceed 3 papers, and each reviewer will be given 2-4 weeks for one paper. 

The reviewers are also asked to answer a group of questions that may help the authors to improve the paper, should it be accepted, and the reviewer can provide some free text observations which was given to the authors and also some free text private observations.  After receiving the review comments, the authors reserve the right of rebuttal, and the rebuttal will be given feedback. But the final decision will not be changed because of that.

Prague

Prague, City of a Hundred Spires, a UNESCO monument and one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Get to know it in person!

The Old Town Hall with the famous Prague Astronomical Clock. The winding lanes of the Jewish Quarter, which you know from the novels of Franz Kafka, steeped in the legend of the Golem. Cafes enticing you to come and have a seat, boutiques and sight-seeing cruises on the Vltava. The Gothic Charles Bridge and Church of St. Nicholas in the Lesser Town, the most beautiful Baroque church in Prague. The Palace Gardens set away from the bustle of the city, Petřín with a lookout tower reminiscent of a small Eiffel Tower and Prague Castle … Each of Prague’s districts has its own characteristic atmosphere and unique charm. Prague presents itself to you as a changeable city, which likes to alternate styles: it is romantic and successful, ancient and modern, but above all it is a city that is cosmopolitan through and through, and is used to welcoming foreigners. It is time to get acquainted.

Oral Presentation Guidline

15 mins(including 2-3 mins Q&A) 

The main points to pay attention to in delivery are the quality of your voice, your rapport with the audience, use of notes and use of visual aids. Voice quality involves attention to volume, speed and fluency, clarity and pronunciation. The quality of your voice in a presentation will improve dramatically if you are able to practise beforehand in a room similar to the one you will be presenting in. 

Rapport with the audience involves attention to eye contact, sensitivity to how the audience is responding to your talk and what you look like from the point of view of the audience. These can be improved by practising in front of one or two friends or video-taping your rehearsal.
