How to submit a Manuscript

KIEE has the online submission and peer review system. Manuscripts should be submitted online at http://www.trans.kiee.or.kr. Authors can submit manuscripts and track their progress to the final decision.

Format

To facilitate the review process, manuscripts must be in Adobe Acrobat Pro format (.PDF). Do not reveal your identity anywhere in the document.

Ethics and Responsivilities of authors

All submitted manuscripts should be original and should not be considered by any other scientific journal for publication at the same time. No part of the accepted manuscript should be duplicated in any other scientific journal without the permission of the Editorial Board. For the policies on research and publication ethics that are not stated in these instructions, the Statement of Ethics & Responsibilities in the Publication of Research and International standards for editors and authors (http://publicationethics.org/international-standards-editors-and-authors) can be applied.

Manuscript preparation checklist

The manuscript must be written in Korean or English, and submitted in (.PDF) format and original research articles forms. The manuscript can be written in the journal template form. Upload a signed "Submission checklist" and "Copyright form" when submitting your original or revised manuscript to the journal's online submission site.

Editorial and Peer Review Process

The editor selects peer reviewers by recommendation of the Editorial Board members or from the specialist database owned by the Editorial Board.
Acceptance of the manuscript is decided, based on the critiques and recommended decision of the reviewers.
A reviewer's decision is made as “accept”, “minor revision”, “major revisions” and “reject.” If there is marked discrepancy in the decisions between three reviewers, association editor or in opinions between the author and reviewer(s), the Editor may send the manuscript to another reviewer for additional comments and recommended decision.

Three repeated decisions of “review after revision” are regarded as “rejection.” The reviewed manuscripts are returned back to the corresponding author with comments and recommended revisions.
A final decision on acceptance or rejection for publication is forwarded to the corresponding author from the Editorial Office.
The peer review process takes usually one to three months after the manuscript submission. Revisions are usually requested to take account of criticism and comments made by reviewers. Failure to resubmit the revised manuscript within three months is regarded as a withdrawal.
The corresponding author must indicate clearly what alterations have been made in response to the reviewers’ comments point by point. Acceptable reasons should be given for noncompliance with any recommendation of the reviewers.

The scope of the KIEE includes the following

The Transactions of the KIEE is published on the 1st day of each month. The Transactions of the Korean Institute of Electrical Engineers publishes papers of a high technical standard with a suitable balance of practice and theory.

Publication

Manuscripts submitted for consideration should report the results of original work. Also, survey papers from field experts will be considered for review. However, papers that have been previously published or submitted to other journals, conferences, or books in any language will not be considered for The Transactions of the KIEE.

• Verify that authorization has been obtained for use of copyrighted material from other sources (including the Web).

Further considerations

• I understand that mandatory page charges will apply to papers exceeding 6 pages.
• I understand that previously published work will be rejected. I certify that this paper has not been published in another journal or conference record.
• I understand that simultaneous submissions will result in rejection. I certify that this paper is not currently under consideration by any other journal or conference publication.
• To qualify for review, revised or extended versions of papers presented in conferences, workshops, or other symposiums should include significant improvements. The title and abstract of paper should be different and at least 30% of content should be modified with new ideas and improvements. In this case, submissions should indicate clearly at which conference (or workshop, symposium) the manuscripts have been presented. Also the original conference paper needs to be submitted to the Transactions of the KIEE. Violation of this standard may cause ethical problems of dual publication. Each author bears the full responsibility for any legal issues.
