ICIAS 2014: PhD students as designated reviewers

Dear PG PhD students,

As you may be aware, the reviews of ICIAS 2014 is well underway. The deadline to notify authors is this coming Fri 28th Feb. We have taken several initiatives in the last few weeks but as of today, we are still short of reviews (assigned reviews but not completed).

Therefore, we seek your kind support to review some of the submitted papers. As PhD students, you are all on the way in becoming an expert in your own area. Part of your contribution to the academic world is in reviewing papers just as the papers you have submitted are also reviewed by other academics who has given of their time and effort.

You should be receiving/already received an email invitation to become a designated reviewer for ICIAS 2014. We hope all of you can accept the invitation immediately. The number of reviews per PhD student is kept at a maximum of 4 papers. After your acceptance, the reviews will be assigned at the soonest, hopefully by today. The deadline is end of Wed 26th Feb.

Due to the high number of UTP papers, there is a chance that you might be assigned reviews of your friends' papers. If you believe you cannot provide a professional and unbiased review of these papers, do inform us at the soonest and we will try to reassign other papers.


Your support and immediate attention in this matter, and contribution to the success of ICIAS 2014 is highly appreciated.



Thanks,

Best regards,

Technical Commitee of ICIAS 2014,
