Editorial Policy
Last updated 04 Aug 2026
Every conference and journal hosted on Article Management System operates its own independent editorial process and publishes its own Editorial Policy on its own website. This platform-wide guidance describes the baseline Technology Fist expects, rather than replacing it.
- Editorial decisions at every venue are expected to be made solely on scientific/technical merit, independent of any commercial consideration.
- Venues are expected to have a clear process for handling suspected misconduct (plagiarism, data fabrication, duplicate submission), including the possibility of rejection or post-publication retraction.
- Technology Fist does not itself make, review, or override any individual venue's editorial decisions - each conference/journal's chairs/editors hold full editorial authority and responsibility for their own venue.
- Where a venue's Publishing platform page is active, corrections, retractions, and expressions of concern are published as formal, dated notices on the affected article's page - visible to every reader, never a silent edit or deletion - and, where applicable, communicated to Crossref as part of the permanent scholarly record.
- Authors, reviewers, and readers should always check the specific conference/journal's own Editorial Policy page for its actual practices, rather than relying on this general guidance alone.
