Building metrics is the key to science and technology measurement, and translating the measures to work better. The metric is not confined to drawing numbers and analysing. Selecting a metric depends on synthesising multiple directions and evidence-based data, producing scientific and technological evaluation benchmarks and standards, and implementing them with real data to mark a full-fledged system. Recently, we have witnessed the emergence of new metrics-based models that aim to reflect the growth of science and technology. The proposed Science and Technology Metrics (STMet 2025) conference addresses the issue of assessing various aspects of science and technology using multiple metrics, which can be best expressed through different approaches. In addition to the standard conference track and the Doctoral Symposium, STMetrics will host several workshops and tutorials related to the conference theme. The workshops offer participants a friendly and interactive atmosphere for presenting novel ideas and discussing the application of metrics in Science and Technology Systems. The tutorials aim to enable participants to familiarise themselves with the theoretical and practical aspects, as well as the application of metrics.

The proposed conference includes invited talks, presentations, tutorials, workshops, and discussions. The STMet has tracks on specialized topics. The STMet addresses the themes below, but is not limited to them.

Evaluation beyond Metrics

All submitted papers will be reviewed by a double-blind process (at least three reviewers) and a participatory peer review. The review process will enable the selection of those who will be accepted to present at the international conference. Authors of accepted papers who registered for the conference can access the evaluations and possible feedback provided by the reviewers who recommended the acceptance of their papers, so they can improve the final version of their papers accordingly.

Mentoring support is available to young researchers and authors from developing countries.

Please note that all submitted papers undergo review and editing by senior editors. We will handle content enhancement and language editing. There is no fee for editing and language correction services. 

Selected post-conference modified versions of the papers will be published in the following journals.

1. Journal of Digital Information Management

2. Performance Measurement and Metrics

3. International Journal of Computational Linguistics Research

There is no further publication fee for the above journals.

The STMet 2025 has many co-located workshops.

Proceedings

We publish the papers after restructuring and editing are complete.
