Further, if published, TTIC would hold all copyright reserved with itself and that the authors should refrain from reproducing a part or whole of the published article elsewhere without the written permission of Editor of TTIC or the publisher (Techno India University, West Bengal).

Additionally, conferences whose research articles are published in TTIC must abide by specific guidelines when it comes to the review process used to accept papers -- specifically the same guidelines that journal papers undergo. In particular, the review process must include:

• at least three written reviews by experts unconflicted with the paper and its authors
• a process that supports bona fide major revisions, where revised papers are re-evaluated by the reviewers of the original submission
• review of complete papers with all the content needed to assess correctness, novelty, and significance of the work
