Updates to anti-plagiarism tools: COMPILATIO and TURNITIN
The journal IPSUMTEC announces to its academic community—authors, reviewers, and readers—the renewal of its licenses for the similarity detection systems COMPILATIO and TURNITIN, reaffirming its commitment to scientific integrity and editorial quality.
What does this renewal mean?
Both platforms operate in a complementary manner within the editorial process:
- COMPILATIO enables similarity analysis with special coverage of sources in Spanish, French, and Portuguese, as well as documents from Latin American and European academic repositories.
- TURNITIN offers a comprehensive comparison against a global database of scientific publications, academic papers, and online content.
The combination of both tools ensures a more robust, accurate, and multilingual review of every manuscript received.
Implications for Authors
Every manuscript submitted for editorial consideration to IPSUMTEC will be analyzed using these systems before the peer review process begins. Similarity reports are used exclusively as an editorial support tool and are evaluated contextually by the journal’s team.
Authors are encouraged to ensure the proper citation of sources, the ethical use of information, and the originality of their contributions.
Our Commitment
The joint implementation of COMPILATIO and TURNITIN aligns with international standards of good editorial practice and the principles of responsible publishing promoted by organizations such as the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE).
IPSUMTEC reaffirms its commitment to serving as a reliable, transparent, and academically rigorous platform for scientific dissemination.
