Likewise, if the manuscript is an extended version of a conference paper, this must also be indicated in the Title Page Form.

• Block similarity within the manuscript text is strictly not accepted.
• Any research or review article found to contain plagiarism in the manuscript will be rejected by decision of the Editorial Board without initiating the peer review process.
• Similarity Reports will be obtained exclusively by the Editorial Board. Reports submitted by the author(s) will not be accepted.
