Reviewers

Each of the papers was subjected to stringent review by the conference’s International Scientific committee. This peer review began with an assessment of the submitted abstracts, and followed by the invitation to submit their full manuscripts. Each manuscript was then reviewed rigorously again by relevant expects and their recommendations on accepting, rejecting or modifying the submission were strictly adhered to before inclusion in this book.
