Author Guidelines

We welcome high-quality scientific works that are interesting and beneficial for the scientific community. The journal publishes original research papers containing the results of basic research or applied research.

Authors communicate with Guest Editors, they do not submit conference papers individually into editorial system.

The conference organizers guarantee the quality and research level of papers and further assure the appropriate language quality.

The review process is held by organizers of the conference. Accepted papers are reviewed by a panel of reviewers and then by independent reviewers in a single blind review process. Reviewers are asked to recommend papers of particularly high importance, which they consider significant and interesting for the scientific community.

The Guest editor will hand reviews and reviewed and revised final version of papers over to the editorial board. The final version should consist of the source file, figures and graphs of .jpg, .pdf, eps. Format in a sufficient size for printing (300 dpi).

The Editorial board will provide the copyediting, proofreading for authors, web editing, the DOI indexing, metadata input, and print of the proceedings, if it is a part of an agreement.

Article submission charge or Article processing charge (APC, publication fee) is not required from authors - publishing in Acta Polytechnica CTU Proceedings is free of charge.

All submitted articles are screened for plagiarism by SimilarityCheck.
