SINTEF Insight (ISSN 2464-2371)

In this series we publish results and syntheses from major research projects. Articles should contain independent findings and conclusions of general interest to those working in the relevant field. Studies/analyses and findings should have a scope that extends beyond geographically-limited, local or individual case studies. The series is intended to include studies of high scientific quality and we stipulate a requirement for written external peer reviews.

SINTEF Proceedings (ISSN 2387-4294)

In this series we publish articles and contributions from scientific conferences. Articles in this series are published primarily in electronic format, but in some cases they may also be printed.

For each publication in the series, an editorial panel is appointed to evaluate submissions and select the best contributions. The editorial panel ensures that all contributions published in the SINTEF Proceedings series are quality assured by external peer reviewers. In the following, we describe the procedure that will be adhered to for the most part, together with any adaptations to special needs linked to specific research fields.

  • A contribution that is received within a stipulated deadline will be forwarded to two experts in the relevant field.
  • On the basis of the comments submitted by the two experts, the editorial panel will decide whether or not the contribution will be accepted or rejected, or whether it should be modified and/or improved by the author.
  • Contributions that require modification and/or improvement must be approved once more by the two experts.
  • In the event of disputes, a third expert will be invited to review the contribution.
  • Only approved (accepted) contributions will be included in the conference publication.

The SINTEF Proceedings series is classified as Open Access according to the Creative Commons CC BY licence.

The SINTEF Proceedings series is ranked at level 1 in the Norwegian Register for Scientific Journals, Series and Publishers.
