PEER REVIEW PROCESS

Peer Review Process

The Indonesian Journal of Electronics, Electromedical Engineering, and Medical Informatics (IJEEEMI) uses a double-blind system. Every article that goes to the editor will be selected in advance on the scope and feasibility by the editorial board. Then, the articles will be sent to peer reviewers. Reviewers are unaware of the identity of the authors, and authors are also unaware of the identity of reviewers (double blind review).  Every submitted paper will be reviewed by at least two peer-reviewers. After that, the articles will be returned to the authors to revise. The reviewing process will consider novelty, objectivity, method, scientific impact, conclusion, and references.
