Plagiarism implies the use of another author's work without permission or acknowledgment. Plagiarism may have different forms from copying word by word to rewriting. While defining plagiarism the following definitions are taken into account:
Literal copying
Copying the work word by word, in general, or in parts, without permission or acknowledgment of the source. Literal copying is clearly plagiarism and is easily detected by plagiarism software.
Substantial copying
Replicating a substantial part of the work without permission and confirmation of the source. In determining what is "substantial", both the quantity and the quality of the copied content are relevant. Quality is measured by the relative value of copied text compared to the whole text. Where the essence of the work was copied, even if not a very big part of it, plagiarism is identified.
Paraphrasing
Copying may be made without literal replicating, used in the original work. This type of copying is known as paraphrasing and it may be the most difficult type of plagiarism to reveal.
Plagiarism in all its forms is unacceptable and will lead to immediate rejection of the paper along with possible sanctions against authors.
