Plagiarism Policy
International EcoHarmony Summit (IES) uses an antiplagiarism tool that very efficiently detects matches of the text with the existing publications. Any use of complete statements copied verbatim breaks the copyright law and is considered a form of (self-)plagiarism. A citation of the source is insufficient in such a case.
International EcoHarmony Summit (IES) checks for plagiarism, when the manuscript is ready to be reviewed by reviewers. Suppose there is an indication of plagiarism over 20%. In that case, manuscripts with these defects will be either returned for immediate corrections. Plagiarism, including duplicate publication of the author's work in whole or part without proper citation, is not tolerated by the IES. If the manuscript has gone through a peer-review process and finds, the Editor decides that the author must revise the manuscript.
International EcoHarmony Summit (IES) has the right to review it if there are reports from other parties; if there is a manuscript published in the IES proceedings (E3S Web of Conference), it turns out there is strong evidence that it has committed severe plagiarism. IES will announce this on the website, apologize for the Editor's team missing the assessment, and report the author and his/her team to their institution and the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE).
