ABSTRACT:

These guidelines are provided for the preparation of papers submitted for publication in the 5th International Conference on Advanced Science and Engineering (ICOASE) 2025. These guidelines are issued to ensure a uniform style. Reproduction is made directly from author-prepared manuscripts electronically in A4 paper size 21 cm x 29.7 cm. To ensure timely and efficient production, authors must submit their manuscripts in strict conformance with these guidelines. The Editorial Board may omit any paper that does not conform to the specified requirements. There will be no opportunity for corrections or improvements of poorly prepared originals.

1. Introduction

The introduction section of your paper should include the necessary background information, including an adequate review of earlier findings and the justification for conducting this study.

2. Materials and Methods

In the materials and methods section, please describe all necessary details on how the study was performed. Do not include any discussions of the work in this section. Enough information should be given so that other researchers can reproduce your study.

3. Results

Use this section to present the results from the measurements or studies that were described in the last section, but without going into any discussion about the results.

All figures and Tables should be numbered consecutively. Figures must be placed in the appropriate location in the document, as close as practicable to the reference of the figure in the text. Figures may be in color or black and white and must be of such quality that they produce clear and sharp printouts on an ordinary (color) laser printer.

4. Discussion

Now you can discuss your results. Emphasize the new and important aspects of the study and the conclusions that follow from them. Do not repeat in detail data or other information given in the Introduction or the Results section. After this section, there may be sections called Conclusion and Acknowledgments. The last section is References.

5. Conclusions

A conclusion section is required. Although a conclusion may review the main points of the article, do not replicate the abstract as the conclusion. A conclusion might elaborate on the importance of the work or suggest applications and extensions.

Reference

References should be indicated in the typescript by giving the author’s name, with the year of publication in parentheses, as detailed in the APA style guide. For example thus (Mustafa, 2013), and listed in alphabetical order in the reference section in standard APA format. The following arrangements should be used:

Please note the following instructions

The maximum paper length is restricted to 12 pages.

Title

The title should appear centered in bold capital letters, at the top of the first page of the paper with a size of twelve (12) points and single-spacing. After one blank line, type the author(s) name(s), affiliation and mailing address (including e-mail) in upper- and lower-case letters, centred under the title. In the case of multi-authorship, group them by firm or organization as shown in the title of these Guidelines.

Abstract

Flush left in bold Capitals. Start with a concise Abstract (150 – 250 words) which presents briefly the content and very importantly, the news and results of the paper in words such to be understandable also to non-specialists.

Keywords

Leave one line blank, then type “KEYWORDS:” in bold capital letters, followed by minimum of 5 keywords. Those key words are used to find a paper with content you are preparing.

Page Layout, Spacing, and Margins

The title and Abstract of the paper must be compiled in one column and all subsequent text (rest of the paper) must compiled in two columns. All text should be single-spaced. Left and right justified typing is needed.

Length and Font

All manuscripts are limited to a size of no more than twelve (12) single-spaced pages (A4 size), including abstracts, figures, tables and references. The font type Times New Roman with a size of nine (9) points is to be used.

Illustrations and Tables

1.1.1 Location: Figures must be placed in the appropriate location in the document, as close as practicable to the reference of the figure in the text. While figures and tables are usually aligned horizontally on the page, large figures and tables sometimes need to be turned on their sides. If you must turn a figure or table sideways. Note that the top is always on the left-hand side of the page.

Captions: All captions should be typed in upper and lower case letters, centered. For tables the captions has to be directly above the table. While, the caption of the Figure must be directly beneath the figure. Use single spacing if they use more than one line. All captions are to be numbered consecutively, e.g. Figure 1, Table 2, Figure 3.

It is the author’s responsibility to obtain any necessary copyright permission. After publication, your article is distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 License and you retain the copyright.
