Open Access Policy
Neutrosophic Systems with Applications (NSWA) is committed to open access principles, ensuring the widespread dissemination of scholarly knowledge in the field of neutrosophic systems.
According to major definitions of open access in scientific literature (namely the DOAJ, Budapest, Berlin, and Bethesda declarations), NSWA, as a part of Sciences Force Publisher, defines open access by the following conditions:
- peer-reviewed literature is freely available without subscription or price barriers,
- literature is immediately released in open access format (no embargo period), and
- published material can be re-used without obtaining permission as long as a correct citation to the original publication is given.
NSWA publish articles under the Creative Commons Attribution License and are now using the latest version of the CC BY license, which grants authors the most extensive rights.
This means that all articles published in NSWA, including data, graphics, and supplements, can be linked from external sources, scanned by search engines, re-used by text mining applications or websites, blogs, etc. free of charge under the sole condition of proper accreditation of the source and original publisher. NSWA believes that open access publishing fosters the exchange of research results amongst scientists from different disciplines, thus facilitating interdisciplinary research. Open access publishing also provides access to research results to researchers worldwide, including those from developing countries, and to an interested general public.
This open access policy is subject to continual review and improvement, ensuring that it remains aligned with best practices in open access publishing and serves the evolving needs of the scholarly community.
Hint: some articles (especially Reviews) may contain figures, tables or text taken from other publications, for which NSWA does not hold the copyright or the right to re-license the published material. The authors should inquire with the original copyright holder (usually the original publisher or authors), whether or not this material can be re-used.
