Submission of Full Manuscript: Instructions to Author
We are happy to inform you that the conference will bring out special issue of an
International & National Journal/Proceedings (in black & white) covering all the
papers accepted for presentation in IC-LGO 2015. Authors are requested to submit
the manuscript as per the following guidelines:

ending with Conclusions.
Typical format for papers dealing with
experimental results is as follows :


Title Page: (i) Concise and informative. Titles are often used in informationretrieval systems. Avoid abbreviations and formulae where possible. The title
of the paper must be brief and contain words useful for indexing.

Author names and affiliations: (i) The names with initials of authors as well
as address of the institution where the work was done must be given below
the names. All affiliations must be indicated with a lower-case superscript

letter immediately after the author's name and in front of the appropriate
address. Provide the full postal address of each affiliation, including the
country name.

Corresponding author. It should be clearly indicated that who will handle
correspondence at all stages of refereeing and publication, also postpublication. The phone numbers (with country and area code) must be
provided in addition to the e-mail address and complete postal address. The
corresponding author must their contact details up to date. If an author has
moved since the work described in the article was done, or was visiting at the
time, a 'Present address' must be given as a footnote to that author's name.
However, the address at which the author actually did the work must be
retained as the main affiliation address. Superscript Arabic numerals are used
for such footnotes.

Abstract: A concise and factual abstract (300 words) briefly stating the
purpose of the research, the main result and conclusion is required that is
often presented separately from the article. Avoid the use of references but if
necessary, then cite the author(s) and year(s). Uncommon abbreviations
should be avoided, but if important they must be defined at their first mention
in the abstract.

Highlights: Highlights are mandatory consisting of short collection of bullet
points conveying the core findings of the article and should be submitted in a
separate file. Please use 'Highlights' in the file name and include 3 to 5 bullet
points (maximum 85 characters, including spaces, per bullet point).

Keywords: Maximum of 6 keywords must be provided for indexing and
information retrieval.

Tables: All tables must be numbered consecutively in Arabic numerals in the
order of occurrence in the text. They should be self contained and have a
descriptive title. Footnotes to tables must be placed below the table body and
are indicated with superscript lowercase letters. Vertical rules must be
avoided. Ensure that the data presented in tables are not described
elsewhere in the article.

Figures: All figures including line drawings, graphs and photographs/plates
should be numbered consecutively in Arabic numerals in the order of
appearance in the text. The line diagrams may be prepared with computer
assisted graphic package such as MS Excel. The figures images should be of
high quality and high resolution with a suitable caption. The original graphic
files should also be sent. A caption should comprise a brief title (not on the
figure itself) and a description of the illustration. Keep text in the illustrations
themselves to a minimum but explain all symbols and abbreviations used.

Units: Units and associated symbols must invariably follow SI practice.

References: Every reference cited in the text must be present in the
reference list and vice-versa. References should be cited in the text by
number and is to be shown within square bracket as superscript. References
at the end of the paper should be serially listed by authors' names followed by
initials, year of publication, name of the journal (abbreviated according to the
World List of Scientific Periodicals, Butterworth’s, London), volume number
and page numbers. Reference to books/ Proceedings should include:
Name(s) of author(s), initials, year of publication, title of the book, edition if
not the first, initials and name(s) of editors if any, chapter referred to,
Page 2 of 3
publisher, and place of publication and number of the first page. References
to thesis must include the year, the title of the thesis, the degree for which
submitted and the University. Use of DOI is highly encouraged. Some
examples are given below :
Text: References cited in the text should be shown with the author’s name
without initials and the year of publication if single author is present. If two
authors are present than both authors' names and the year of publication. For
three or more than that first author's name followed by 'et al.' and the year of
publication. Groups of references should be listed first alphabetically, then
chronologically.
Examples: 'as demonstrated (Allan, 2000a, 2000b, 1999; Allan and Jones,
1999). Kramer et al. (2010) have recently shown ....'
List: References should be arranged first alphabetically and then further
sorted chronologically if necessary. More than one reference from the same
author(s) in the same year must be identified by the letters 'a', 'b', 'c', etc.,
placed after the year of publication. Examples:
