3rd ICISDE has conference submission system developed by Universitas Muhammadiyah Yogyakarta (conference.umy.ac.id). Participants could download templates of the manuscript in system. All reviews and correspondence with the authors are conducted through the system. The reviews were double-blind. Each submission was examined by at least 2 (two) reviewers. 

The submissions were first screened for generic quality and suitableness. After the initial screening, they were sent for peer review by matching each paper’s topic with the reviewers’ expertise, taking into account any competing interests. A paper could only be considered for acceptance if it had received favourable recommendations from the two reviewers.

Authors of a rejected submission were given the opportunity to revise and resubmit after addressing the reviewers’ comments. The acceptance or rejection of a revised manuscript was final.

All articles’ authors are hidden automatically by the system to ensure the anonymity and thus review is done carefully, scientifically, with zero conflict of interest.

Reviewers were instructed to assess the quality of submissions solely based on the academic merit of their content along the following dimensions:

• Topic Relevance (how the topic discussed in the paper related with the scope/theme of the Conference)
• Originality/Novelty (To what extent is the topic original or does the paper suggest novelty)
• Depth of Analysis (To what extent do the authors analyze the research finding)
• Significance (How does the paper contribute to the field?)
• Methodology (How does the methodology used by the author relevant with the proposed aims and resulted in good findings?)

All of the articles are checked for textual overlap in an effort to detect possible signs of plagiarism by the publisher. 3rd ICISDE uses Turnitin for all papers before review. Only articles with similiarity index below 15% are tolerated.
