International Journal of SIMULATION: Systems, Science & Technology
Submission Policy
Papers that have been published in "limited distribution" conference proceedings, digests, records, preprints, etc. can be submitted for consideration provided that the Editor is notified at the time of submission. Material is not to be submitted concurrently to meetings and to this Journal.
A paper should clearly indicate the relationship of the work described to the most relevant previous work. Most formulae in a paper should be accompanied by brief explanations in English. When mathematical proofs are not given, it is common to cite a technical report or other source where interested readers may find them.
The author is responsible for obtaining any necessary copyright releases for material which has been published previously, as well as all required corporate and security clearances prior to submitting material for consideration. It is UKSim's policy to assume that all clearances have been received by the author by the time a paper is submitted for publication. No paper published in other journals or books can be considered for publication in the International Journal of Simulation: Systems Science & Technology. Concurrent submission to other publications and this Journal is viewed as a serious breach of ethics and if detected will result in immediate rejection of the submission.
Preparation Of Manuscript: Important Change
As from Vol.10, No.1 IJSSST format will follow a similar template to that used by IEEE conferences, the main exception being the Abstract is spread over the paper width rather than the top of the left column. See http: //ijssst.info/info/template.doc, http://ijssst.info/info/template.pdfHeaders and Footers: authors must insert headers and footers as follows:
Headers:must be in size 10 points, centred across the top of the page between the same margins as the main text, and consist of the first author's initials (without full stops) and surname followed by et al (in case of multiple authors) followed by a colon anda portion of the paper title up to the end of the line, in upper case, e.g.
S B YAAKOB et al: MAINTENANCE OF A TRAFFIC SIGNAL LIGHT
Footers:must be centred across the bottom of the page between the same margins as the main text with the page number in the centre, in size 10 points including the volume number, the issue number and the paper number within the issue, e.g for volume 15, issue 1, paper number 3, the footer would be as follows;
DOI 10.5013/IJSSST.a.15.01.03 38 ISSN: 1473-804x online, 1473-8031 print
REFERENCES: Follow the IEEE guidelines http://www.ijssst.info/info/IEEE-Citation-StyleGuide.pdf
Page Limit: 20PAGES. Papers should have a maximum length of 20 double column pages. Additional pages may be submitted, but there is an extra page charge of £50/page. We would prefer that you did not exceed the 20 page limit!
Questions on manuscript preparation should be addressed to the Editor.
Page Charges: To cover the processing charges levied by EDAS and the cost of publication, after a manuscript is accepted for publication the author must pay a charge of $10 per page.
