Refereeing process

The refereeing process followed was in accordance with DEST guidelines. A panel of referees was chosen from the academic community, and external to the conference organising committee. Each paper submitted for refereeing was submitted as a blind (unidentifiable) copy. Written appraisals were received from each referee for each paper. Papers requiring revision were returned to authors for the required changes. At no time were referees informed of the identities of the authors whose papers they were assessing.
