Guide for Authors

Authors are encouraged to submit their original manuscripts online via the website:

http://jacm.scu.ac.ir/

 

All papers are subject to a peer reviewing procedure. The manuscript should be written in good English. It should have been carefully checked for clarity, conciseness, correctness of grammar, and typographical errors.

While preparing manuscripts, authors are kindly requested to follow the guidelines, described below:

  • All papers should be submitted in Microsoft Word file (.doc or .docx).
  • The first submission should include text (preferably in 10 point, “Times New Roman” font) and all figures (figures should be at the end of the text).
  • The manuscript pages should be prepared with double-line spacing, one column and a margin of at least 4 cm on one side.
  • All papers should be composed of Title, Author Name, Affiliation, Corresponding author email, Abstract, Keywords, Body and References.
  • References should be numbered in the order they are mentioned in the text.

 

Paper Template:

As of January 2022, the submitted manuscripts should have the sections of Author Contributions, Acknowledgments, Conflict of Interest, Funding, and Data Availability Statements. If the mentioned sections are not applicable for the manuscript, please add "Not Applicable" just after each section. Publication of any manuscript in the JACM requires the conformance to the paper template. Nevertheless, initial submission of the manuscript for the first round of reviewing process, need not be compliant with the template. The authors are requested to prepare the revised version of their manuscripts in accordance with the journal's template. 

Please kindly do the following actions before submitting the revised manuscript:

1. Prepare the revised version of the manuscript in accordance with the template.

2. Write the equations using Math-type software, if possible.

3. Please provide us your institutional email address (if any) as contact information in the manuscript.

4. Submit the MS-Word format of the manuscript in the revision process.
