Hi
Im keen on clarifying the following series of questions as different scholars have different views in this regard.
(1) For an author, is it possible (as well as ethical) to re-publish a conference article in another journal as some conferences are not publishing the paper at all in a journal or sometimes they might publish few selected papers in affiliated journal/s ?.
(In fact mostly, conference hosting party simple ended up either giving a printed conference proceeding to an author or publish it in the conference website.)
(2) If an author is heading to publish such conference paper in a journal;
could that author publish such article as it was in the conference submission?, or does he/she need to do changes (either minor changes or major changes) to it?, if so, what kind of changes?
and does he/she need to get the permission from the conference hosted party to re-publish it in a journal?
(3) Are indexed journals willing to accept re-publication of a conference article?
insightful answers and views are welcome. Thank You
Hi Harshaka, Conference paper is considered as an abstract. It calls proceedings paper. When we present the paper in a conference probably we can get comments and suggestions from the experts in particular areas. Accordingly, we can rearrange the paper and submit a journal with some confident. According to my knowledge some journals suggest that present a conference before submit the journal and some do not accept without conference proceedings.
Cheers
Thanks Sriyantha sir for your valuable inputs to the discussion.
Some top conference papers may be invited to be published in relevant journals. In this case, authors are asked to submit an extended version of their papers with more findings, discussions, citations etc.
