Plagiarism Policy

All manuscripts submitted to the Journal of Computing Innovations and Emerging Technologies will be screened for similarity using Turnitin or equivalent plagiarism detection software. The journal strictly prohibits any form of plagiarism or self-plagiarism. Submissions found to contain plagiarized content will be automatically rejected.

Prior to the peer-review process, authors are required to ensure that their manuscripts have a similarity index of less than 25%, as measured by plagiarism detection tools.

Plagiarism is defined as presenting someone else's ideas, words, or work as one’s own, without proper citation, acknowledgment, or permission. It includes, but is not limited to, the following forms:

• Direct Plagiarism: Copying another author’s work word-for-word, in full or in part, without appropriate citation or acknowledgment.

• Substantial Plagiarism: Reproducing a significant portion of another work, whether measured by quantity or by the importance of the content taken, without proper attribution.

• Paraphrasing without Attribution: Restating ideas, phrases, or arguments from a source in different words without giving due credit to the original author. While paraphrasing is a legitimate academic practice, failure to cite the source constitutes plagiarism.

The Journal of Computing Innovations and Emerging Technologies emphasizes ethical publishing practices and urges authors to ensure the originality of their submissions.
