Peer-review and Publication Ethics

a. Peer-Review
The submitted papers will be peer-reviewed based on relevance and timeliness, technical content and scientific rigor, novelty and originality, and their quality of presentation. All the submitted abstracts will be peer-reviewed by an expert panel, and the selected full manuscript will be submitted to suitable journals. All submitted manuscripts are peer-reviewed by the editorial boards of each journal.

b. Publication Ethics

  • Authorship and contributorship: Contributors are either author contributors or non-author contributors. Non-author contributors are those who helped in carrying out the research and they can be appreciated at the acknowledgements statement at the end of the paper
  • Policy on intellectual property: The author must take the responsibility of their results, data, figures in the submitted manuscript have not been published elsewhere, nor are they under consideration (from you or one of your contributing authors) by another publisher. This policy ensures that contributors who have made substantive intellectual contributions to an article are given credit and that contributors understand their role in taking responsibility and being accountable for what is published.
