Itand is an international research journal sponsored by Institute of Computing Technology (ICT), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), and China Computer Federation is jointly published by Science Press (CCF). of ChinaThe andjournal Springer on a bimonthly basis in English. The journal offers survey and review articles from experts the of field, understand- The ing of the in state thepromoting art, and insight trends and in technology. contents include original and The innovative applications from all parts ofresearch the world. journal presents mostly previously unpublished materials. The coverage of JCST includesand computer architecture and systems, artificial pattern recognition, computer andintelligence distributed computing, computer graphics networks andandmultimedia, software systems, data management data mining, theory and algorithms, emerging areas,versions and more.

Whenfrom an author uses text, charts, photographs, orshall: other graphics another author’s material, the author 1) clearly indicate reused material and provide a referenceand to the origin (publication, person, etc.) of full the material 2) obtain written permission from the publisher or, if the reused not been published, obtain written permission material from the has original source. J. Comput. Sci. & Technol. Whenfrom an author reuses charts, photographs, or other graphics his/her owntext, previously published material, the author shall: 1) clearly indicate allpublication reused material and provide a full reference to the original of the material and the previously published or clearly submitted material is used2) asifasubmission basis for a new submission, indicate how the new differs from the previously published work(s). Reference citations in the text should be identified by numbers in square brackets. Some examples: 1) Negotiation research spans many disciplines [3]. 2) This effect has been widely studied [1-3, 7]. 2.2.2 Reference List The references include articles that are citedlist inofthe text andshould that only havecommunications been published or accepted for publication.

MSOffice are also acceptable. • Vector graphics containing fonts must have the fonts embedded in the files. • Name figure files with “Fig” and the figure number, e.g., your Fig1.eps. 2.5.2 Line Art Definition (Line Art).

Color illustrations should be submitted as RGB (8 bits per channel). 2.5.6 Figure Lettering To add lettering, itconsistently is best to use Times New Roman. Please keepartwork, lettering sized throughout your final-sized usually about 8anpt. Variance ofdotype size within illustration should be minimal, e.g., not use 8-pt type on an axis and 20-pt typeAvoid for the axis label. as shading, outline letters, etc. Do not includeeffects titles orsuch captions within your illustrations. J. Comput. Sci. & Technol. 4 2.5.7 Figure Numbering All figures are to be numbered using Arabic numerals in the order they are referred to in the text. Figures should always be cited in text in consecutive numerical order. parts should be denoted by lowercase letters: (a), (b), Figure etc. If(c), an appendix your article and it conone or more figures,appears numberinthe appendix figures: A1,tains A2, A3, etc. 2.5.8 Figure Captions Each figure should have a concise caption describing accurately what the figure depicts. the captions in the text file of the notininInclude the figure file. Figure captions begin withmanuscript, the in term Fig. bold type, followed the figure number, also bold type. No punctuation istoto by be included after the number, nor is any punctuation be placed at theall end of the caption. Identify found in theasfigure in thepoints fig- ure caption; and useelements boxes, circles, etc., coordinate in graphs. Identify previously published material by giving the original source in the form of a reference citation at the end of the figure caption. Note: You may explain the meaning of some special format, e.g., in bold, and/or give the full names of the abbreviations used in the table whose full names have not presented in the text. 2.5.9 Placement and Size When preparing your figures, size figures to fit in the column width (one-column or two-column as needed). 2.5.10 Permissions If you includeyou figures that havepermission already been published elsewhere, must obtain from the copyright bothpublishers the print and online format.
