Guidelines for Submission of manuscripts
All correspondence concerning submissions is between the author and the Editor-in-Chief.
Language of submitted papers must be in English. Authors should submit electronic
version of their papers, in .doc or .docx format. To submit your paper for consideration,
please mail us at
editor@sers.og.in.
SRES is devoted primarily to archival reports of work that have not been published
elsewhere. Specifically, conference records and book chapters that have been published
previously are not acceptable unless and until they have been enhanced significantly.
Please ensure that in the cover letter (comments to editor-in-chief) you state that
the work being submitted has not been published elsewhere, nor is it under review
currently by another publication.
The final decision on publication is made by the Editor-in-Chief upon recommendation
of an Editorial Board Member. If the manuscript is accepted for publication in SRES,
the copyright will be transferred to the Journal, and it must not be published elsewhere
without the permission of the Editor-in-Chief.
It is hoped that the following notes will be useful during the preparation of your
paper for submission. Ensure that the following items are present:
One author is designated as the corresponding author. His/her e-mail address and
full postal address is included.
Please, ensure that:
• The manuscript has been properly spell-checked.
• All references follow the same format chosen for the bibliography.
• All references mentioned in the "Reference" list are cited in the
text, and vice versa.
• Permission has been obtained for the use of copyrighted material from
other sources (including the Web).
Submission of camera-ready versions
SRES is a journal from the research community for the research community. We do
not have professional staff. Authors must help in getting ready final versions of
their papers.
When preparing your final version of paper you should adapt your paper to the journal
guide style. Please use template for the preparation of final camera ready paper.
Preparation of the text
Please write your text in good English. Both American and British usages are accepted,
but not a mixture of them. Italics are not to be used for expressions of latin origin,
for example, in vivo, et al. per se. Use decimal points (not commas); use a space
for thousands. Provide the following data on the title page (in the order given):
Title
Concise and informative. Titles are often used in information-retrieval systems.
Avoid abbreviations and formulae whenever possible.
Author names and affiliations
Where the family name may be ambiguos (e.g., a double name), please indicate this
clearly. Present the authors' affiliation addresses (where the actual work was done)
below the names. Indicate all affiliations with a lower-case superscritp letter
immediately after the author's name and in front of the appropriate address. Provide
the full postal address of each affiliation, including the country name, and, if
available, the e-mail address of each author.
Corresponding author
Clearly indicate who is willing to handle correspondence at all stages of the reviewing,
publication and post-publication process. Both e-mail and full postal address should
be provided.
Abstract
A concise and factual abstract is required. The abstract should state briefly the
purpose of the research, the methods used, the principal results and major conclusions.
An abstract is often presented separate from the article, so it must be able to
stand alone. References should therefore be avoided, but if essential, they must
be cited in full, without reference to the reference list.
Keywords
Immediately after the abstract, provide a maximum of five to ten keywords, using
American spelling and avoiding general and plural terms and multiple concepts (avoid,
for example, ‘and', ‘of'). Be sparing with abbreviations: only abbreviations firmly
established in the field may be eligible. These Keywords will be used for indexing
purposes.
Abbreviations
Define abbreviations and symbols that are not standard in this field at their first
occurrence in the article: in the abstract but also in the main text after it. Ensure
consistency of abbreviations throughout the article.
Paper structure
Divide your article into clearly defined and numbered sections. Subsections should
be numbered I.A, I.B, etc. (the abstract is not included in section numbering).
Use this numbering also for internal cross-referencing: do not just refer to "the
text." Any subsection may be given a brief heading. Each heading should appear on
its own separate line.
Acknowledgements
Place acknowledgements, including information on grants received, before the references,
in a separate section, and not as a footnote on the title page.
Figure legends, tables, figures, schemes
These must be explored in more detail below. High-resolution graphics files must
be provided.
Specific remarks
Mathematical formulae
Present simple formulae in the next line of normal text where possible and must
be typed in equation editor 3.0 given in word.
Footnotes
Footnotes should be used carefully. Number them consecutively throughout the article.
Tables
Number tables consecutively in accordance with their appearance in the text. Place
footnotes to tables below the table body and indicate them with superscript lowercase
letters. Avoid vertical rules. Be sparing in the use of tables and ensure that the
data presented in tables do not duplicate results described elsewhere in the article.
Nomenclature and units
Follow internationally accepted rules and conventions: use the international system
of units (SI). If other quantities are mentioned, give their equivalent in SI.
References
Responsibility for the accuracy of bibliographic citations lies entirely with the
authors.
Citations in the text:
Please ensure that every reference cited in the text is also present in the reference
list (and vice versa). Any references cited in the abstract must be given in full.
Unpublished results and personal communications should not be in the reference list,
but may be mentioned in the text. Citation of a reference as 'in press' implies
that the item has been accepted for publication.
Citing and listing of web references
As a minimum, the full URL should be given. Any further information, if known (author
names, dates, reference to a source publication, etc.), should also be given. Web
references can be listed separately (e.g., after the reference list) under a different
heading if desired, or can be included in the reference list.
Proofs
Proofs will be made available to the corresponding author and should be returned
with one week of receipt. Corrections should be restricted to typesetting errors;
any other corrections may be charged to the authors. Authors are advised to check
their proofs very carefully before return, since the inclusion of late corrections
cannot be acceptable. Corrected proofs are to be returned to the publishers.
Publication of additional material
SRES is an open-access journal. Its goal is to achieve the widest dissemination
of knowledge. To better serve this purpose, SRES encourage authors to submit along
with their papers additional supporting material. Presentations, animations of algorithms
or systems, source-code, and/or data-sets are more than welcome. Actually, submissions
including any of kind of extra supporting material will receive a higher priority
when queued into the review process.
Each manuscript must be accompanied by a statement that it has been neither published
nor submitted for publication, in whole or in part, either in a serial, professional
journal or as a part in a book which is formally published and made available to
the public. For the mutual benefit and protection of authors and publishers it is
necessary that authors provide formal written consent to publish and transfer of
copyright before the publication of the article. Previous to the publication of
the paper, the authors must download this
form,
print, and sign it. Then it will be scanned and sent at
editor@sers.og.in
After Final acceptance, the manuscript will be passed to the production Department to be copy-edited and prepared for printing (uploading). As per decision of the Board, SERS will not charge any amount as publication fee from its authorized members as per membership claims.
