Submissions

Author Guidelines

Computer file of the manuscript must be submitted by this system, no further submissions by email will be accepted. Preferred text processors are TeX or LaTeX, however Word and other processors are also acceptable. A source file of any format must always be associated by a pdf version of the manuscritp.

Manuscripts should be typewritten one-and-half-spaced on  a standard size (A4) paper. Left and right side margins should be approximately 3cm (1.2'') wide. Each page should contain approximately 30 lines of 60 characters each. The manuscript including figures and tables should include them as the author(s) intend them to appear. 

A separate signed letter summarizing the main contribution of the paper should be enclosed. 

First page should include the title of the paper, first name(s) and surname(s) of the Author(s), and a short summary (abstract), not longer than 20 lines.

Keywords of max. 5 - 7 items should be included in manuscript.

Numeration. All chapters, including the introduction, should be numbered in arabic numerals. Equations, tables and figures as well as theorems, corollaries, examples etc., should be numbered consecutively throughout the paper in arabic numerals, except in appendices. Appendices should be numbered with capital letters, and numeration should be closed within individual appendices.

If the manuscript is not prepared with TeX, mathematical expressions should be carefully written so as not to arouse confusion. Care should be taken that subscripts and superscripts are easily readable.

Tables and figures should be placed as desired by the Author within the text or on separate sheets with their suggested location indicated by the number of table or figure in the text solar powered toys. Figures, graphs and pictures (referred to as Fig. in the manuscript) should be numbered at the beginning of their caption following the figure. All figures should be prepared as PostScript EPS files or LaTeX picture files; in special cases, bitmaps of figure are also acceptable. The numbers and titles of tables should be placed above the main body of each table.

Figures: The proper abbreviations for figures referred to in the body text are Fig. and
Figs.—i.e., Fig. 1, Figs. 1 and 2, etc. Never begin a sentence with a figure abbreviation. Instead, spell figure in full—i.e., Figure 1.

Tables: Never abbreviate the word table when referring to a table in the body text—i.e.,
Table 1, Table 2, etc.

References should be listed alphabetically at the end of the manuscript. They should be numbered in ascending order and the numbers should be inserted in square brackets. References should be organized as follows. First initial(s), surname(s) of the author(s) and title of article or book. Then, for papers: title of periodical or collective work, volume number (year of issue), issue number, and numbers of the first and the last page; for books: publisher's name(s), place and year of issue. Add a DOI link in case the publication has one. Example:

[1] F. Conte, V. Cusimano and A. Germani: A separation theorem for a class of MIMO discrete-time nonlinear systems. 2012 IEEE 51st IEEE Conference on Decision and Control (CDC), (2012). DOI: 10.1109/cdc.2012.6426715

[2] R.E. Kalman: Mathematical description of linear dynamical system. SIAM J. Control. 1(2), (1963), 152-192.

[3] F.C. Shweppe: Uncertain Dynamic Systems. Prentice-Hall, Englewood Cliffs, N.J. 1970.

Please, give full titles of journals; only common words like Journal, Proceedings, Conference, etc. may be abbreviated ( to J., Proc., Conf., ... respectively). References to publications in the body of the manuscript should be indicated by the numbers of the adequate references in square brackets. When the paper is set in TeX the preferable form of preparing references is Bib TeX bib database.

Footnotes should be placed in the manuscript, beginning with "Received..." (date to be filled in by Editor), the author's institutional affiliation and acknowledgement of financial support, and continuing with numbered references. The number of footnotes should be held to a minimum.

List of symbols containing definitions of all symbols used, enclosed to the manuscript on a separate sheet, is required when the paper is not set in TeX and welcome in other cases.

Submission of a paper implies the Author's irrevocable and exclusive authorization of the publisher to collect any sums or considerations for copying or reproduction payable by third parties.
