1. Introduction
The text is to be typeset in 11 pt Times Roman, single spaced. The Introduction should argue the case for the study, outlining only essential background, and should not include the findings or the conclusions. It should not be a review of the subject area, but should finish with a clear statement of the question being addressed.
2. Materials and Methods
2.1. Materials
Materialas icluding: object, location, data & informations, and tolls used in data analysis.
2.2. Methods
Methods include: the stages and formulas that are used in data analysis, arranged sequentially step by step.
2.2.1. Structure
Research articles should be divided into the sections listed below. Principal sections should be numbered consecutively (1. Introduction, 2.Materials and methods, etc.)and subsections should be numbered 1.1., 1.2., etc. Do not number the Acknowledgements or References sections.
Manuscripts must be written in English. Contributors who are not native English speakers are strongly advised to ensure that a colleague fluent in the English language or a professional language editor has reviewed their manuscript. Concise English without jargon should be used. Repetitive use of long sentences and passive voice should be avoided. It is strongly recommended that the text be run through computer spelling and grammar programs. Either British or American spelling is acceptable but must be consistent throughout.
2.2.2. Formula / Equation
Insert common mathematical equiations or build up your own equations using a library of math symbols. Variables and parameters must be typed in italics, while symbols of vectors or matrices are typed upright and bolded. All formulas or equations to be used in subsequent analyzes, must be numbered in sequence, for example (1), (2), etc. For example as follows:
2.2.3. Tables
All tables should be numbered with Arabic numerals. Headings should be placed above tables, left justified. Leave one line space between the heading and the table. Only horizontal lines should be used within a table, to distinguish the column headings from the body of the table, and immediately above and below the table. Tables must be embedded into the text and not supplied separately. Below is an example which authors may find useful.
2.2.4. Construction of references
Organization and citation of the bibliography are made in American Psychological Association (APA) style. Some examples of how your references should be listed are given at the end of this template in the ‘References’ section, which will allow you to assemble your reference list according to the correct format and font size.
3. Results and Discussion
All figures should be numbered with Arabic numerals (1,2,...n). All photographs, schemas, graphs and diagrams are to be referred to as figures. Line drawings should be good quality scans or true electronic output. Low-quality scans are not acceptable. Figures must be embedded into the text and not supplied separately. Lettering and symbols should be clearly defined either in the caption or in a legend provided as part of the figure. Figure is center, as shown below and cited in the manuscript.
4. Conclussion
