PUBLICATION ETHICS

Publication Ethics and Publication Malpractice Statement

SMSIS’s Publication Ethics and Publication Malpractice Statement is based, in large part, on the guidelines and standards developed by the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE).

We expect all parties commit themselves to these publication ethics. We do not tolerate any plagiarism or other unethical behaviour. We will remove any manuscript that does not meet these standards.

If any author or reviewer encounters a potential breach of publication ethics, we encourage them to inform and contact organization committee as soon as possible.
