Guideline for Authors

You could download here the Farsi version of Author Guideline. (You need the Acrobat Reader to read the file)


The final manuscript of the English papers accepted for publication in the CSI JCSE should be prepared in accordance with this guide. It is, however, strongly recommended that preparation of the initial manuscript also follows the instructions given here. Manuscript may be in English or Farsi.

1. Paper Organization

Title: The title should be short (at most 15 words) and indicative of the paper contents.

Authors: the authors’ names (initial and last name) and their affiliations should appear next.

Abstract: the abstract should include the problem explanation, methods used for solution, and the significant results; and should not be longer than 150 words.

Keywords: The keywords should be relatively independent and together optimally characterize the paper. Include 5 to 10 keywords.

Text: the main body of the paper should start with Introduction and end with concluding remarks. All sections and sub-sections should be numbered. The number for introduction is 1.

Acknowledgement: If required, Acknowledgements appear after the concluding remarks.

References: All publications cited in the text should be presented in the order they are cited in a numbered list of References following Acknowledgements. In the text refer to references by the reference number in square brackets on the line.

Appendices: If appendices are necessary, they are placed after the list of References.

2. Figures, Tables, Photographs and Equations

Figures and Tables: Each figure or table must have a number and a caption. In figures, the number and the caption appear under the figure while in tables, they appear over it. The size of text and numbers in tables and figures must be suitable to allow high legibility. Do not use any type of shading in computer generated illustrations.

Photographs: High quality glossy black and white photographs must be supplied as they are to be reproduced.

Equations: Equations are to be numbered consecutively. The number of each equation should appear in parentheses in the right-most end of the equation line. Sufficient spave should be allowed above and below each equation.

3. References

The format for various types of references should be as follows:

4. Manuscript preparation

Typing and Printout: The manuscipt should be prepared using Microsoft Word and should be printed on A4 size paper using a laser printer.
