Before submitting your manuscript, please review this guide to ensure that your work aligns with our journal’s Aims & Scope. This guide provides detailed instructions to help you prepare, format, and submit your manuscript effectively.
Check List Before Submission
All submissions must be original, unpublished, and not under consideration elsewhere. Upon acceptance, papers are published under the Creative Commons Attribution License (CC BY), which allows authors to retain full copyright while permitting others to use, share, or adapt the work for any purpose, provided proper attribution is given..
Manuscripts must be submitted online through our submission system, AccessON. To begin, click the "e-Submission" link on the journal’s homepage. Please ensure that your manuscript complies with the guidelines provided below.
We accept detailed reports of original research (Research Papers) and comprehensive reviews that summarize and analyze existing research on a specific topic (Review Papers). All submissions must be full papers, as we do not accept letters or short communications. Manuscripts should generally be between 4,500 to 9,000 words and must be submitted using the provided Microsoft Word or LaTeX templates.
The title page should include the manuscript title, author information (full names and affiliations), corresponding author contact details (including email), and ORCID IDs for all authors, if available. An abstract of approximately 150–250 words should be included, summarizing the content without references or equations, followed by 4–6 relevant keywords.
The main text should be structured clearly into sections, beginning with an introduction that places the study within a broader field, defines its aim and significance, and reviews key literature. The materials and methods section should provide sufficient detail for replication, with ethical approval stated where necessary. The results section should present findings concisely, while the discussion should interpret the results in the context of existing research, addressing implications, limitations, and potential impact. A conclusion section should summarize main findings and suggest areas for further research.
Figures, tables, and equations should be referenced within the text, placed near their first mention, and formatted as follows: Figures/Schemes should have captions below, tables should have captions above, and equations should be numbered sequentially.
Acknowledgments should recognize non-author contributions and list any financial support and grant numbers. Authors must disclose any conflicts of interest, stating "The authors declare no conflicts of interest" if applicable. Details of funders’ roles should also be provided.
References use square brackets [ ] for in-text citations, numbered in the order they appear. Include DOIs where available and follow the IEEE Reference Style.

Authors are encouraged to submit supplementary materials, such as datasets, code, or multimedia files, to enhance the reproducibility and engagement of their research. These materials will be included in the online version of the article.
All manuscripts are scanned for plagiarism using industry-standard tools, with significant overlap (over 35%) resulting in rejection. Expanded versions of previously presented conference papers are acceptable if properly cited and explained. Additionally, any use of AI-generated content, including text, figures, or code, must be disclosed. Authors should specify the AI tool used and its role in the research. For detailed guidelines on AI content, refer to our separate AI Policy section. Also, for any other ethical considerations not specifically mentioned here, please consult the Research and Publication Ethics section.
Once accepted, authors must submit the final manuscript in Microsoft Word or LaTeX format, including author biographies and photos. Additionally, they must complete the Electronic Copyright Form (CC BY) if required.
