FORMAT FOR BODY

- Type your main text in 11-point Times New Roman, single-spaced with 13-point interline spacing. Do not use double-spacing. All paragraphs should be indented 1 pica (approximately 1/6- or 0.17-inch or 0.422 cm). Be sure your text is fully justified—that is, flush left and flush right. Please do not place any additional blank lines between paragraphs. Figure and table captions should be 11-point Helvetica boldface (or a similar sans-serif font). Callouts should be 10-point Helvetica, non-boldface. Initially capitalize only the first word of each figure caption and table title. Figures and tables must be numbered separately. For example: “Figure 1. Database contexts”, “Table 1. Input data”. Figure captions are to be below the figures. Table titles are to be centered above the tables.

PAPER TYPES

- Research paper/ Technical Report

The purpose of "Research Papers" is to present and discuss the latest, most profound, and most important research results in the fields of IC. We welcome high quality technical papers describing original unpublished results of theoretical, empirical, conceptual or experimental research. Papers should describe new contribution in the areas of IC and support claims of novelty with citations to the relevant literature.
The purpose of "Technical/Industrial Application Results" is to establish a meaningful forum between practitioners and researchers with useful solutions in various organizational environments, diverse systems and cultures. The Technical Experience Track includes all kinds of practical applications which covers principles, projects, missions, techniques, tools, methods, processes, and etc.

We invite you to submit a paper should be written at least 6 pages (except "References") in AICIT Format.
