International Journal Sustainable Future for Human Security J-SustaiN Vol. 1 00 (2016) 000–000 TOPIC OF MANUSCRIPT http://www.j-sustain.com Title of Your Manuscript Author1a*, Author2b aFirst affiliation, Address, City, Country affiliation, Address, City, Country bSecond Received: 2016/ Accepted: 2. Structure 2016 Abstract The JOURNAL of SUSTAINABLE FUTURES for HUMAN SECURITY or J-SustaiN originated from the need to provide an inter-disciplinary forum where the most serious problems affecting a sustainable future for human security can be discussed, in recognition of the fact that many future problems cannot be solved by a “siloed” approach. The emphasis on sustainable futures is in response to the general awareness of the need to solve numerous humanrelated problems resulting from the rapid growth of modern society. The topic of sustainable futures for human security needs to be discussed in an integrated way, in accordance with the principles of sustainability, considering energy and materials supply, economies and trade, technology, cities, agriculture, social and environmental aspects. This electronic document is a “live” template. The various components of your paper [title, text, heads, etc.] are already defined on the style sheet, as illustrated by the portions given in this document. Keywords: word1; word2; word3. Abbreviations: : : : 1. First, confirm that you have the correct template for your paper size. This template has been tailored for output on the custom paper size (7.56” x 10.32”). The abstract and main text should be written in Constantia theme font (in 9 pt). Introduction This template, created in MS Word 2007 and saved as “Word document (.docx)” for the PC, provides authors with most of the formatting specifications needed for preparing electronic versions of their papers. The template is used to format your paper and style the text. All margins, column widths, line spaces, and text fonts are prescribed; please do not alter them. 1.1. Subdivision Divide your article into clearly defined and numbered sections. Subsections should be numbered 1.1 (then 1.1.1, 1.1.2, ...), 1.2, etc. (the abstract is not included in section numbering). Use this numbering also for internal crossreferencing: do not just refer to 'the text'. Any subsection may be given a brief heading. Each heading should appear on its own separate line. 1.2. Style Follow this order when typing manuscripts: Title, Authors, Affiliations, Abstract, Keywords, Main text (including figures and tables), Acknowledgements, References, and Appendix (if necessary). Collate acknowledgements in a separate section at the end of the article and do not include them on the title page, as a footnote to the title or otherwise. A self-contained abstract of up to 150 to 200 words outlining in a single paragraph the aims, scope and conclusions of the paper must be supplied; acknowledgements (if any); article title abbreviated appropriately for use as a running headline. Please note that your abstract may not be any longer than 200 words and will be sent back at submission stage if it is longer than allowed. References should be avoided in abstract, but if essential, then cite the author(s) and year(s). Also, nonstandard or uncommon abbreviations should be avoided, but if essential they must be defined at their first mention in the abstract itself. Provide a maximum of five keywords (avoid, for example, 'and', 'of'). Be sparing with abbreviations: only abbreviations firmly established in the field may be eligible Define abbreviations and acronyms the first time they are used in the text, even after they have been defined in the abstract. Abbreviations such as IEEE, SI, MKS, CGS, sc, dc, and rms do not have to be defined. Do not use abbreviations in the title or heads unless they are un-avoidable. 1.3. Units o Corresponding Author Tel.: +81 ; Fax.: +81 ; E-mail: author@ac.jp o Follow internationally accepted rules and conventions: use the international system of units (SI). If other quantities are mentioned, give their equivalent in SI. Do not mix complete spellings and abbreviations of units: “Wb/m2” or “webers per square meter”, not Last Name, First NameAuthor 1; Last Name, First NameAuthor2/ J-SustaiN 00 (2016) 000–000 o “webers/m2”. Spell out units when they appear in text: “... a few henries”, not “... a few H”. Use a zero before decimal points: “0.25”, not “.25”. Use “cm3”, not “cc” 1.4. Tables All tables should be numbered with Arabic numerals. Headings should be placed above tables, left justified. Leave one line space between the heading and the table. Only horizontal lines should be used within a table, to distinguish the column headings from the body of the table, and immediately above and below the table. Tables must be embedded into the text and not supplied separately. Table 1 is an example which authors may find useful. Figure 1 Example for figure, use 8 pt of font size (table and caption located at the middle of the body paper) Table 1 Example for table, use 8 pt of font size (table and caption located at the middle of the body paper) An example of a column Column A (t) Column B (T) heading And an entry 1 2 And another entry 3 4 And another entry 5 6 If your electronic artwork is created in a Microsoft Office application (Word, PowerPoint, Excel) then please supply 'as is' in the native document format. Regardless of the application used other than Microsoft Office, when your electronic artwork is finalized, please 'Save as' or convert the images to one of the following formats (note the resolution requirements for line drawings, halftones, and line/halftone combinations given below): 1.5. Construction of references References should be listed at the end of the paper, and numbered in the order of their appearance in the text. Authors should ensure that every reference in the text appears in the list of references and vice versa. The template will number citations consecutively within brackets [1]. The sentence punctuation follows the bracket [2]. Refer simply to the reference number, as in [3]—do not use “Ref. [3]” or “reference [3]” except at the beginning of a sentence: “Reference [3] was the first...”. Some examples of how your references should be listed are given at the end of this template in the ‘References’ section, which will allow you to assemble your reference list according to the correct format and font size. There is a shortened form for last page number. e.g., 51–9, and that for more than 6 authors the first 6 should be listed followed by “et al.” o o o o EPS (or PDF): Vector drawings, embed all used fonts. TIFF (or JPEG): Color or grayscale photographs (halftones), keep to a minimum of 300 dpi. TIFF (or JPEG): Bitmapped (pure black & white pixels) line drawings, keep to a minimum of 1000 dpi. TIFF (or JPEG): Combinations bitmapped line/half-tone (color or grayscale), keep to a minimum of 500 dpi. 2.1. Math formulae Equations and formulae should be typed and numbered consecutively with Arabic numerals in parentheses on the right hand side of the page (if referred to explicitly in the text), as in Eq. (1). x (1) They should also be separated from the surrounding text by one space. Equations should be edited by Mathtype, not in text or graphic versions. You are suggested to use Mathtype 6.0 (or above version). 2. Author Artwork All figures should be numbered with Arabic numerals (1,2,...n). All photographs, schemas, graphs and diagrams are to be referred to as figures. Line drawings should be good quality scans or true electronic output. Low-quality scans are not acceptable. Figures must be embedded into the text and not supplied separately. Lettering and symbols should be clearly defined either in the caption or in a legend provided as part of the figure. Figures should be placed at the top or bottom of a page wherever possible, as close as possible to the first reference to them in the paper (see Figure 1). 3. Language Please write your text in good English (American or British usage is accepted, but not a mixture of these). Authors who feel their English language manuscript may require editing to eliminate possible grammatical or spelling errors and to confirm to correct scientific English may wish to use the English Language Editing service. 2 Last Name, First NameAuthor 1; Last Name, First NameAuthor2/ J- SustaN 00 (2016) 000–000 Acknowledgements List here those individuals who provided help during the research (e.g., providing language help, writing assistance or proof reading the article, etc.).
