10. Review Criteria on Originality

In the case that an original paper has the same content as one already released or in the process of being released in another publication, it cannot be accepted by this journal. Additionally, anything regarded as identical to a written work for which copyrights are owned by a party other than the author cannot be accepted by this journal. However, as an exception, original papers with content similar to written works such as patent publications and proceedings of international conferences, meetings, or seminars may be accepted. Further exceptions may exist for the acceptance of special edition papers.

In order to determine if a paper submitted as an original paper to this society窶冱 journal satisfies the review criteria on originality, the publications committee will exchange paper information with other academic societies and organizations as needed. Information exchanged by the publications committee will be used only for the judgment of review criteria on originality. In addition, the exchanged information will be returned to the other academic societies and organizations or destroyed, within six months from the exchange. Furthermore, at the time of an exchange, a request will be sent in advance to the other society or organization for the handling of information at a level equal to or less than that of this society窶冱 publication committee.

11. Author Qualifications
