Selecting an outstanding Researcher/Reviewer for an award is an important process. Based on the article submissions and research done with us, we use the selection criteria as follows

• Quality and impact of Researcher/Reviewer contributions
• Originality and innovation in research
• Publications in peer-reviewed journals and conferences
• Grant funding and research support obtained
• Collaborations and interdisciplinary work
• Leadership and mentorship in the research community
• Impact on society and industry

Quality:

Scientific and methodological soundness of the paper and inclusion of details that allow checking the accuracy of the reflections, results and integrity.

Significance:

The issues presented are not obvious and trivial, but interesting, creditable and cutting-edge.

Clarity:

Clearly written, content accessible and engaging for a non-specialist audience.

Originality:

Not necessarily the generation of new knowledge, although that would be novel, but rather the uniqueness of the combination of the issues, techniques and methods in their application to a certain domain.

Presentation:

Well-structured with a coherent and consistent methodological order that ensures intelligibility of what is being said and a logical conclusion etc..
