Plagiarism Policy

Plagiarism and self-plagiarism are strictly prohibited. Authors must ensure that all submitted manuscripts are wholly original. If the work or words of others are used, they must be properly cited or quoted in accordance with academic standards.

Authors must not publish manuscripts describing the same research in more than one conference proceeding or primary publication. Concurrent submission of the same manuscript to multiple conference proceedings is considered unethical publishing behaviour and is strictly not permitted.

Authors are also required to properly acknowledge the contributions of others and must cite publications that have significantly influenced their work.

Working Process

The editorial team of the INPAC Conference Proceedings manually checks each manuscript against offline and online databases to ensure all citations and quotations are correctly applied.
In addition, the editorial team uses Turnitin plagiarism detection software.

If the similarity index exceeds 20%, the manuscript will be immediately rejected.
