Plagiarism Policy
The Journal of Lorem (Computational Engineering and Computer Information Systems) is committed to upholding the highest standards of academic integrity and originality. The journal strictly prohibits plagiarism in any form and takes decisive action against any manuscript found to have engaged in unethical practices. Authors, reviewers, and editorial staff are expected to adhere to the following plagiarism policy:
1. Definition of Plagiarism:
Plagiarism is defined as the act of presenting someone else's work, ideas, or intellectual property, whether published or unpublished, as one's own without proper acknowledgment.
2. Originality Verification:
Manuscripts submitted to Lorem will be subjected to rigorous checks for originality using plagiarism detection tools. Authors are required to ensure that their work is entirely original and properly cited.
3. Citation and Attribution:
Proper citation is essential for all sources used in a manuscript, including text, figures, tables, and other intellectual contributions. Authors should accurately attribute the ideas, data, and work of others, providing appropriate references in accordance with the specified citation style.
4. Self-Plagiarism:
Authors must refrain from self-plagiarism, which involves reusing significant portions of their own previously published work without proper citation. If there is a need to reproduce content from a prior publication, authors should seek permission and provide appropriate references.
5. Multiple Submission and Redundancy:
Authors should not submit the same manuscript to multiple journals simultaneously. Redundant publication, where substantial parts of the same work are published more than once without proper cross-referencing, is considered a form of plagiarism.
6. Plagiarism Detection:
Lorem employs advanced plagiarism detection tools to identify instances of plagiarism. Detected cases will be thoroughly investigated, and appropriate actions will be taken in accordance with this policy.
7. Actions Against Plagiarism:
Manuscripts found to have engaged in plagiarism will be immediately rejected. Authors responsible for plagiarism may be banned from submitting to the journal in the future. In cases of published articles later found to involve plagiarism, the journal may issue retractions and inform relevant parties.
8. Confidentiality:
The plagiarism investigation process is conducted confidentially and involves only the necessary parties, including the editorial team and relevant experts.
9. Reporting Plagiarism:
Lorem encourages the academic community to report suspected cases of plagiarism promptly. Reports should be sent to the journal's editorial office along with supporting evidence.
10. Education and Awareness:
Lorem is committed to raising awareness about plagiarism within the academic community and educating authors on best practices for proper citation and original writing.
Authors submitting manuscripts to the Journal of Lorem are expected to be familiar with and adhere to this plagiarism policy. By maintaining a strict stance against plagiarism, Lorem ensures the integrity of the scholarly publishing process and upholds the principles of academic honesty and ethical conduct.
