Plagiarism

• 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 concurrently is unethical.
