Abstract

All papers published in this volume of IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering have been peer reviewed through processes administered by the Editors. Reviews were conducted by expert referees to the professional and scientific standards expected of a proceedings journal published by IOP Publishing.▪ Type of peer review: The type of peer review carried out in the article selection process at PIC-ASET 2020 uses a single-blind peer-review.

Furthermore, the manuscript will be sent to at least one anonymous referee for contribution, originality, relevance, and presentation (double-blind peer review). Reviewers’ comments are then sent to the corresponding author for necessary actions and responses. Finally, the suggested decision will be evaluated in an editorial board meeting.

The review process will take approximately 1 to 2 weeks. Decisions categories include:1. Reject - Rejected manuscripts will not be published, and authors will not have the opportunity to resubmit a revised version of the paper to the 1 st PIC-ASET 2020.2. Resubmit for Review - The submission needs to be re-worked, but with significant changes, it may be accepted. However, it will require a second round of review.3. Accept with Revisions - Manuscripts receiving an accept-pending-revisions decision would be presented in the 1st PIC-ASET 2020 under the condition that minor/major modifications are made.

But before that, it must still be presented in the 1st PIC-ASET 2020.The reviewers’ and editors’ suggestions would be conveyed to the author, who will then have an opportunity to revise the paper.

Finally, after accepted, all articles that are declared accepted by the Editor, must be presented at the 1st PIC-ASET 2020. The publication will then be proposed to the Journal of Physics: Conference Series published by IOP Publishing. Contact person for queries: 1. Dr. Mujiarto (mujiarto@umtas.ac.id)2.
