Author Guidelines

Paper Submission 

All papers are subjected to a blind peer review process. Manuscripts are invited from academicians, research students, and scientists for publication consideration. Papers are accepted for editorial consideration through email [email protected] with the understanding that they have not been published, submitted or accepted for publication elsewhere. Papers accepted for publication may not be published elsewhere in the same form, either in the language of the paper or any other language, without the consent of the Editorial Board.

Publication Cost:

Free of charge.

Style:

Manuscripts should be attached and sent to the Editor via e-mail. The file to be written using the following software: MS-WORD or PDF format for IBM compatible computers. The paper format or template can be downloaded here: MS Word or Latex.

Length:

Paper should not exceed 10 typeset, printed pages. Order of parts: Title of article, author's names, author's institutional affiliations, abstract (maximum 200 words suitable for abstracting services), main text, tables (each starting with a caption) and figure captions, list of symbols and abbreviations (if necessary), numbered list of references, biographical sketch, and original figures.

Title:

The title of the paper should be concise and definitive (with key appropriate for retrieval purposes).

Author Names and Affiliations:

It is journal policy that all those who have participated significantly in the technical aspects of a paper be recognized as co-authors or cited in the acknowledgments. In the case of a paper with more than one author, correspondence concerning the paper will be sent to the first author unless staff is advised otherwise.

Author name should consist of first name, middle initial, last name. The author affiliation should consist of the following, as applicable, in the order noted:

  • Company or college (with department name or company division)
  • Postal address
  • City, state, zip code
  • Country name
  • Telephone, fax, and e-mail

Abstract:

Abstract must be written in Times New Roman, bold, font 10. It should briefly highlight the importance of the research, the statement of the problem, the experimental methods and procedures, the results, as well as the research novel contributions. Abstract contains one paragraph with a maximum of 200 words. Do not include any new material that has not been covered elsewhere in the main text. Avoid moral or cliché statements. A brief and accurate abstract allows the potential readers to determine quickly whether they want to read the main text in full.  

The purposes of an abstract are:

  1. to give a clear indication of the objective, scope, and results of the paper so that readers may determine whether the full text will be of particular interest to them;
  2. to provide key words and phrases for indexing, abstracting, and retrieval purposes.

Introductions:

The introduction is one of the most important sections of a scientific manuscript, as it establishes the context, motivation, and relevance of the study. A well-structured introduction ensures that readers understand why the research was conducted and what it contributes to the field. In general, the introduction should contain five essential elements: background, state of the art, research gap, research objectives, and novelty.

  • Background: Authors should begin by explaining the broader context of the research area, including fundamental principles and general applications. This provides the reader with sufficient information to understand the importance of the topic. The background should be written concisely, avoiding unnecessary details, but strong enough to demonstrate the relevance of the research field.
  • State of the Art: After setting the context, authors must summarize the most relevant and recent studies in the literature. This section highlights what has already been achieved, what methodologies are commonly used, and what limitations remain. Citations to high-quality and recent references are essential to demonstrate awareness of ongoing scientific discourse.
  • Research Gap: Following the state of the art, authors must identify the specific problem that has not yet been addressed. This “gap” serves as the rationale for conducting the present study. The gap should be explained clearly and linked logically to the limitations of previous works.
  • Research Objectives: Once the gap is established, authors should explicitly state the objectives of the current study. Objectives should be formulated as clear, measurable, and achievable statements, indicating what the research intends to accomplish and how it addresses the identified gap.
  • Novelty: Finally, the introduction must emphasize the unique contribution of the study. This includes any new approach, improved method, original dataset, or theoretical insight that distinguishes the work from previous studies. Stating novelty clearly enhances the manuscript’s scientific value and justifies its publication.

Research Method:

The research method provides a systematic framework to ensure that the study can be replicated and validated. In general, it consists of four key elements: research design, instruments, procedures, and data analysis. 

  • The research design specifies whether the study is experimental, simulation-based, or theoretical. The design should be aligned with the research objectives and capable of addressing the defined problem statement. 
  • The instruments and materials include hardware, software, and datasets employed in the study. Authors must describe the specifications of devices, computational tools, or algorithms used, ensuring reproducibility of the experimental environment. 
  • The procedures explain the step-by-step methodology, covering system configuration, parameter selection, and data acquisition. In modeling or simulation studies, this section should include the underlying equations, boundary conditions, and assumptions. Where necessary, diagrams or flowcharts should be provided to illustrate workflow. 
  • The data analysis stage outlines the techniques used to interpret results. Statistical methods, computational algorithms, or mathematical formulations should be clearly stated. Validation processes, such as calibration, error estimation, or comparison with existing models, must also be explained to strengthen reliability. 

Result and Discussion:

The results and discussion section constitutes a critical component of a scientific manuscript, as it presents the main findings and interprets them within the context of existing knowledge. This section should be structured logically, beginning with basic observations and progressing to more detailed or complex analyses. The objective is not only to display results but also to explain their significance and relation to the research objectives.

Conclusion:

Conclusions should be written in one paragraph. The conclusions section provides a concise synthesis of the major findings and their scientific contributions. Authors should highlight the key outcomes of the research and explain how these outcomes address the research objectives stated in the introduction. The conclusion is not a repetition of results but rather an interpretation that emphasizes novelty, relevance, and potential applications. 

References:

The references should be brought at the end of the article, and numbered in the order of their appearance in the paper. The reference list should be cited in accordance with the following examples:

  1. A. Rusdinar, J. Kim, and S. Kim, "Error pose correction of mobile robot for SLAM problem using laser range finder based on particle filter", International Conference on Control, Automation, and Systems, Gyeonggi-do, Korea (2010) 52-55
  2. Barnes, M., "Stresses in Solenoids," J. Appl. Phys., 48(5), pp. 2000-2008.
  3. Jones, J., 2000, Contact Mechanics, Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, UK, Chap. 6.
  4. E. Menegatti, T. Maeda, and H. Ishiguro, Image based memory for robot navigation using properties of omnidirectional images, Robotics and Autonomous System, 47 (4) (2004) 251-267..

We use IEEE reference format and this is the example of how to write references. The minimum number of main references are 20 and should be from the last 5 years. 80% of references should be from Scopus indexed journals.
