Reviews were conducted by expert referees according to the professional and scientific standards expected of a proceedings journal.

• Type of peer review: Single-blind peer review
• Conference submission management system: University repository and e-mail

• Additional information on the review process: In the first review round, two reviewers are assigned to each paper to conduct a single-blind review. If both reviewers recommend rejection, the paper is rejected. Reviewers’ comments are compiled and communicated to the authors for revision. In the second review round, one reviewer is assigned to assess whether the authors have adequately addressed all comments. If the revisions are found satisfactory, the paper is forwarded to the Academic Editor, who makes the final decision on its acceptance for publication in the conference proceedings, and to the Volume Editor for final communication.
