Peer Review Process

Articles submitted to the Journal of Electrical Engineering, Energy, and Information Technology (J3EIT) will be reviewed independently by 2 reviewers through a double-blind review process. The review process will take approximately 1-2 weeks after the article is submitted to the editor. Decisions for publication, amendment, or rejection are based on reviewer reports/recommendations.

After being reviewed, there will be four kinds of editor's decisions based on the reviewer's recommendations: Accept Submissions: Submissions will be accepted without revision. Revisions Required: Submissions will be accepted after minor changes have been made. Resubmit for Review: Submissions need to be reworked, but with significant changes, may be accepted. However, that will require a second round of review. Reject Submissions: Submissions will not be published in the journal.

The author is expected to improve the submitted article according to input from the two appointed reviewers.

Reviewers Guidelines

1. Contribution to Editorial Decisions

Reviewers assists editors in making editorial decisions and may assist authors in improving their manuscripts via the review report. Peer review is an essential component of formal scholarly communication and lies at the heart of scientific endeavor. J3EIT shares the view of many that all scholars who wish to contribute to the scientific process have an obligation to do a fair share of reviewing.

2. Promptness

Any invited referee who is assigned Review work must report the Editorial office withing 2-3 days.If the referee find itself unsuitable for Review then also he/she must inform the Editorial office within stimulated time period.

3. Confidentiality

Any manuscripts received for review are confidential documents and must be treated as such; they must not be shown to or discussed with others except if authorized by the Editor-in-Chief (who would only do so under exceptional and specific circumstances). This applies also to invited reviewers who decline the review invitation.

4. Standards of Objectivity

Reviews should be conducted objectively and observations formulated clearly with supporting arguments so that authors can use them for improving the manuscript. Personal criticism of the authors is inappropriate.

5. Acknowledgment of Sources

Reviewers should identify relevant published work that has not been cited by the authors. Any statement that is an observation, derivation or argument that has been reported in previous publications should be accompanied by the relevant citation. A reviewer should also notify the editors of any substantial similarity or overlap between the manuscript under consideration and any other manuscript (published or unpublished) of which they have personal knowledge.

6. Disclosure and Conflicts of Interest

Any invited referee who has conflicts of interest resulting from competitive, collaborative, or other relationships or connections with any of the authors, companies or institutions connected to the manuscript and the work described therein should immediately notify the editors to declare their conflicts of interest and decline the invitation to review so that alternative reviewers can be contacted. Unpublished material disclosed in a submitted manuscript must not be used in a reviewer’s own research without the express written consent of the authors. Privileged information or ideas obtained through peer review must be kept confidential and not used for the reviewer’s personal advantage. This applies also to invited reviewers who decline the review invitation.

Publication Ethics

Journal of Electrical Engineering, Energy, and Information Technology (J3EIT) is a peer-reviewed online international journal. The Journal is dedicated to maintaining a high standard regarding ethical values, and quality reserach. J3EIT Journal refers to the COPE’s Best Practice Guidelines (https://publicationethics.org/guidance/Guidelines) and accordingly revises its guidelines for the authors, reviewers, and other stakeholders from time to time as needed.

1. Duties of Authors:

1.1 Reporting Standards

Authors of original research should present an accurate account of the work performed and the results, followed by an objective discussion of the significance of the work. The manuscript should contain sufficient details like image citation, tabular data and references to cite the existing work. Fraudulent or knowingly inaccurate statements constitute unethical behavior and are unacceptable to the journal.

1.2 Data Access and Retention

Authors may be asked to provide the raw data of their study together with the manuscript for editorial review. They should be prepared to make the data publicly available if practicable. The authors should ensure accessibility of such data to other competent professionals for at least ten years after publication (preferably via an institutional or subject-based data repository or other data center), provided that the confidentiality of the participants can be protected and legal rights concerning proprietary data do not preclude their release.

1.3 Originality and Plagiarism

Authors should ensure that they have written and submitted only entirely original works, and if they have used the work and/or words of others, that this has been appropriately cited. Publications that have been influential in determining the nature of the work reported in the manuscript should also be cited. Plagiarism takes many forms, from "passing off" another's paper as the author's own to copying or paraphrasing substantial parts of another's paper (without attribution), to claiming results from research conducted by others. Plagiarism in all its forms constitutes unethical publishing behavior and is unacceptable.

1.4 Concurrent Submission/Publication

Papers describing the same research should not be published in more than one journal or primary publication. Hence, authors should not submit for consideration a manuscript that has already been published in another journal. Submission of a manuscript concurrently to more than one journal is unethical publishing behavior and unacceptable.The publication of some kinds of manuscripts (such as clinical guidelines, translations) in more than one journal is sometimes justifiable, provided that certain conditions are met. Examples include: translations or a manuscript that is intended for a different group of readers.

1.5 Authorship of the Manuscript

Only persons who meet following authorship criterias should be listed as authors in the manuscript as they must be able to take public responsibility for the content:

All persons who made substantial contributions to the work reported in the manuscript (such as technical help, writing and editing assistance, general support) but who do not meet the criteria for authorship must not be listed as an author, but should be acknowledged in the "Acknowledgments" section after their written permission to be named as been obtained. The corresponding author should ensure that all appropriate coauthors (according to the above definition) and no inappropriate co-authors are included in the author list and verify that all coauthors have seen and approved the final version of the manuscript and agreed to its submission for publication.

1.5 Disclosure and Conflicts of Interest

Authors should at the earliest stage possible (generally by submitting a disclosure form at the time of submission and including a statement in the manuscript) disclose any conflicts of interest that might be construed to influence the results or their interpretation in the manuscript. Examples of potential conflicts of interest that should be disclosed include financial ones such as honoraria, educational grants or other funding, participation in speakers' bureaus, membership, employment, consultancies, stock ownership, or other equity interest, and paid expert testimony or patent-licensing arrangements, as well as non-financial ones such as personal or professional relationships, affiliations, knowledge or beliefs in the subject matter or materials discussed in the manuscript. All sources of financial support for the work should be disclosed (including the grant number or other reference number if any).

1.6 Acknowledgment of Sources

Authors should ensure that they have properly acknowledged the work of others, and should also cite publications that have been influential in determining the nature of the reported work. Information obtained privately (from conversation, correspondence or discussion with third parties) must not be used or reported without explicit, written permission from the source. Authors should not use information obtained in the course of providing confidential services, such as refereeing manuscripts or grant applications, unless they have obtained the explicit written permission of the author(s) of the work involved in these services.

1.7 Fundamental errors in published works

When authors discover significant errors or inaccuracies in their own published work, it is their obligation to promptly notify the journal's editors or publisher and cooperate with them to either correct the Manuscript in the form of an erratum or to retract the Manuscript. If the editors or publisher learns from a third party that a published work contains a significant error or inaccuracy, then it is the authors' obligation to promptly correct or retract the Manuscript or provide evidence to the journal editors of the correctness of the Manuscript. 

2. Duties of Editors:

2.1 Fair Play and Editorial Independence
Editors evaluate submitted manuscripts exclusively on the basis of their academic merit (importance, originality, study’s validity, clarity) and its relevance to the journal’s scope, without regard to the authors’ race, gender, sexual orientation, ethnic origin, citizenship, religious belief, political philosophy or institutional affiliation. Decisions to edit and publish are not determined by the policies of governments or any other agencies outside of the journal itself. The Editor-in-Chief has full authority over the entire editorial content of the journal and the timing of publication of that content.

2.2 Confidentiality
Editors and editorial staff will not disclose any information about a submitted manuscript to anyone other than the corresponding author, reviewers, potential reviewers, other editorial advisers, and the publisher, as appropriate.

2.3 Disclosure and Conflicts of Interest
Editors and editorial board members will not use unpublished information disclosed in a submitted manuscript for their own research purposes without the authors’ explicit written consent. Privileged information or ideas obtained by editors as a result of handling the manuscript will be kept confidential and not used for their personal advantage. Editors will recuse themselves from considering manuscripts in which they have conflicts of interest resulting from competitive, collaborative, or other relationships/connections with any of the authors, companies or institutions connected to the Manuscripts; instead, they will ask another member of the editorial board to handle the manuscript.

2.4 Publication Decisions
The editors ensure that all submitted manuscripts being considered for publication undergo peer-review by at least two reviewers who are expert in the field. The Editor-in-Chief is responsible for deciding which of the manuscripts submitted to the journal will be published, based on the validation of the work in question, its importance to researchers and readers, the reviewers’ comments, and such legal requirements as are currently in force regarding libel, copyright infringement and plagiarism. The Editor-in-Chief may confer with other editors or reviewers in making this decision.

2.5 Involvement and Cooperation in Investigations
Editors (in conjunction with the publisher and/or society) will take responsive measures when ethical concerns are raised with regard to a submitted manuscript or published Manuscript. Every reported act of unethical publishing behavior will be looked into, even if it is discovered years after publication. HKJN editors follow the COPE Flowcharts when dealing with cases of suspected misconduct.
