2. No article submitted for publication shall be under consideration by another journal.

3. The NETSOL is an open access e-journal. There is no submission or registration fee. Free membership is required for submissions. There is no charge for article submission, processing or publication.

4. The NETSOL reserves the copyright of published works. The author/s are allowed to reuse the work published by NETSOL without any charge as far as they explicitly acknowledge that the work was previously          published by NETSOL.

5. All works submitted to NETSOL go through Viper and Plagium plagiarism check programs before they are routed to reviewers.
