Platform Policies

Built on Integrity &
Academic Rigor

OMCAR's policies ensure every abstract meets the highest standards of ethical oversight, data integrity, and open access publishing.

01

Digital Object Identifier (DOI) Policy

Individual DOIs

Each accepted and presented abstract will be assigned its own unique DOI. This allows authors to receive direct citations for their conference presentations, bridging the gap between a live event and a permanent academic record.

Citation

Authors gain a citable, permanent record of their conference science. DOIs enable accurate attribution, cross-referencing with full-text publications, and traceable contribution histories.

Indexing

DOIs will be registered through Jaypee's metadata providers to ensure abstracts appear in global academic databases, maximizing discoverability.

02

Ethical Oversight & Mandatory Validation

Automated Screening

Every submission must pass a system-level check for mandatory ethical declarations before proceeding to final submission and DOI assignment.

Responsibility

While the system validates the presence of an ethics statement, the authors remain legally and ethically responsible for the accuracy of the statement and the conduct of the research.

03

Data Integrity & Formatting

Standardization

OMCAR standardizes data to ensure it is machine-readable, facilitating better indexing by search engines like Google Scholar and academic databases.

Modification

Once a DOI has been assigned and the abstract is published, corrections are only permitted through a formal Erratum process to maintain integrity of the scientific record.
