Policies of ICNFS
Review Process:
By submitting a paper to ICNFS, the authors agree to the review
process and understand that papers undergo a peer-review process.
Manuscripts will be reviewed by appropriately qualified experts in
the field selected by the Conference Committee, who will give
detailed comments and — if the submission gets accepted — the
authors submit a revised ("camera-ready") version that takes into
account this feedback.
All papers are reviewed using a single-blind review process: authors
declare their names and affiliations in the manuscript for the
reviewers to see, but reviewers do not know each other's identities,
nor do the authors receive information about who has reviewed their
manuscript.
The Committees of ICNFS 2022 invest great efforts in reviewing the
papers submitted to the conference and organising the sessions to
enable the participants to gain maximum benefit.
Plagiarism:
ICNFS is utterly intolerant of plagiarism. Submitted papers are
expected to contain original work executed by the authors with
adequate, proper and scholarly citations to the work of others. It
is the job of the authors to clearly identify both their own
contribution(s) and also published results / techniques on which
they depend or build. Reviewers are charged to ensure these
standards are met.
If the author is found to commit an act of plagiarism, the following
acts of sanction will be taken:
1. Reject the article submitted or delete the article from the final
publications.
2. Report the authors violation to his/her supervisor(s) and
affiliated institution(s)
3. Report the authors violation to the appropriate overseeing office
of academic ethics and research funding agency.
4. Reserve the right to publish the authors name(s), the title of
the article, the name(s) of the affiliated institution and the
details of misconduct, etc. of the plagiarist”.
Dual/Double Submissions:
By submitting a manuscript to ICNFS, authors acknowledge that it has
not been previously published or accepted for publication in
substantially similar form in any peer-reviewed venue with publicly
accessible papers, including journals, conferences, workshops, or
other peer-reviewed, archival forums. Furthermore, no paper
substantially similar in content has been or will be submitted to
another peer-reviewed conference or workshop with publicly
accessible papers during the review period. The authors also attest
that they did not submit a substantially similar submission to ICNFS
2022. As a rule of thumb, the ICNFS submission should contain no
more than 20 percent of material from previous publications. Violation
of any of these conditions will lead to rejection.
