The lead author's complete mailing address including the fax number and e-mail address should be given, including his/her company or organization. It is to this address that correspondence is to be sent. Lower-case letters between brackets should be used to indicate which address goes with which author. The address(es) should be centred and in lower-case letters. The different parts of the address(es) should be separated by commas and if more than one line is necessary, the various lines should be of roughly the same length.

– Abstract

The first page must start with a short abstract (max 500 words).

– Titles and sub-section headings

The Times New Roman character, the single line and the 12 pt character size must be used. All titles of sections should be justified left, in boldface capital letters and numbered. Two blank lines should be placed above the titles.

Sub-section headings should be in small, italics letters, justified left and numbered (1.1, 1.2, …). A blank line should be placed above them.

Sub-sub-sections should be avoided. If they are used, they should be justified left, in normal lower-case letters, with the text beginning to the right of the sub-sub-section heading.

– Text

The Times New Roman character, the single line and the 12 pt character size must be used (excluding title, authors and affiliation), justified.

The text must start on the first page, immediately after the summary, and will continue in full on the following pages (please fill each page of the manuscript, do not leave blank spaces at the end of the pages).

Please insert in all pages (except the first one) a header with the title of the paper (upper margin 1.25 cm), Times New Roman character, single line, 10 pt character, italics.

They must be indicated in the text by consecutive numbering. This numbers must be indicated at the foot of the page in the order in which they are mentioned in the text and separated by a line from the main text. There must be double spacing between the text and the note’s line.

The pictures and the tables have to be inserted in the text and numbered sequentially. After every picture and above every form, a justified caption must be inserted and one empty line must be left before and after, to make sure that the caption will not be confused with the rest of the text. Please remember that the picture has to be in black and white because in the final printing coloured lines cannot be reproduced very well.
