An earlier version of my manuscript is (or will be) published in a conference proceedings (or conference best paper proceedings). Can I still submit the paper to JIBS for publication consideration?
Yes, you may still submit your paper to JIBS. As outlined in the JIBS Code of Ethics, submissions to JIBS cannot be submitted or published elsewhere, with the exception of conference proceedings where the paper is work in progress toward the manuscript submitted to JIBS. Note that the author must inform the JIBS Office of the conference proceedings paper at the time of submission (there is space for this in screen 5 of the Manuscript Central submission process). The JIBS Code of Ethics also states that authors should not post their submitted manuscripts (including working papers and prior drafts) on publically searchable websites where they could be easily discovered by potential reviewers.
