Review criteria

There are three components to your paper review: (1) general, (2) subject treatment and (3) presentation. All components should be considered when reviewing the paper and when making your final recommendations.

1. General

The questions in this section of the evaluation form pertain to the overall subject matter of the paper and its interest and value to the deep foundations in both academics and industry. Please keep these items in mind when reading through the paper.

• Originality: Papers that have previously been published are discouraged but may be considered if the topic is deemed of utmost interest to the audience. If you are aware that a paper has been previously published or presented, let the chairmen know this in your comments.
• Commercial Content: Submissions should not be written to promote a particular product, service, or company but rather provide valuable information on techniques. Papers written for commercial or private advantage are not acceptable.

2. Subject

This portion refers to the technical content of the paper and although there is no simple formula for what acceptable technical content is, there are some basic principles you can apply.

• Relevance: First and foremost, it should be considered whether or not the submission fits the objectives of the conference:
  • To promote the understanding of deep foundations communications and computer and software engineering by providing a forum for the academic and industry.
  • o Fits into the conference theme.
• References as support: The reviewer should request that references be provided by the author where they believe they are required and were not provided.
• Speculation and personal opinion: Both should be considered unacceptable and limited within the paper.
• Significance of Results: Where appropriate, authors should provide statistical information to support any calculations provided in the paper.

3. Presentation

There is no simple formula for a successful paper presentation. Various writing styles are acceptable to allow the authors to express themselves in their own unique way. However, general requirements that should be considered during paper reviews are provided below.

• Quality of Figures: Figures should be legible and easy to understand. They should support the information provided in the paper and properly referenced within the text. The use of computer-generated graphs or figures should be encouraged rather than scans of handwritten copies.
• Quality of English language: As English will be the language in which the conference presentations are made and the conference proceedings published, it is important that the spelling, grammar, word usage, punctuation, etc. of the text be carefully scrutinized. If the reviewer feels the paper is not readable, the reviewer should advise the author that the text be rewritten by an English – speaking native and it should be commented to the chairmen that if chosen for verbal presentation, someone speaks to the presenter in advance.
• Organization: Although the organization of a paper is also a style issue, the paper content should be presented in a manner that is easy for the reader to follow.
• Completeness: It is important to ensure that all material necessary for the overall presentation of the paper is included, i.e., appropriate citations in the reference list, descriptive captions on all figures and tables, and conclusions substantiated by statements within the previous text.
