ITARC June-2021Review Process

1. Subject to the condition that the paper submitted is in line with the guidelines provided for authors theConference Chair (s) will review its suitability given the aims and objectives of the conference. 
2.  If the initial outcome is positive the paper will be sent for blind reviews to one external reviewer. However, in some cases it may be sent to two external reviewers.
3. A decision will be taken as to the acceptability of the paper on the basis of the recommendation of the external reviewer (s).
