Plagiarism

The manuscript should be original and should not have been submitted either previously or simultaneously elsewhere, neither in whole nor in part.

Moreover:

  • Authors may not present results obtained by others as if they were their own. Authors should acknowledge the work of others used in their research and cite publications that have influenced the direction and course of their study.
  • Reproducing text from other papers without properly crediting the source (i.e., plagiarism) and producing papers with almost the same content by the same authors (i.e., self-plagiarism) is not acceptable.
  • Submitting the same results to more than one journal at the same time is also unethical.

If there is a plagiarism detected in the article, the manuscript will be rejected and any future publication of this manuscript will be suspended (even after corrections).
