Author Guidelines
Article Submission
The submission is performed online at this site using the submission forms. Corresponding author needs to register with the journal (if it has not been done before) prior to submitting. When registering, please leave empty the Signature field of the profile.
If the corresponding author is already registered, she/he needs to log in and follow the link [New Submission]. The submission must be ZIP-archive containing the original source (including all style files and figures) and a PDF version of the compiled output.
We distinguish two types of articles, namely a full article (from 10 to 16 pages) and a short communication (from 3 to 6 pages).
The work described in the article must not have been published before or be under consideration for publication elsewhere. All the authors have to approve the article before submitting. The article should also be approved by the responsible authorities – tacitly or explicitly – at the institute where the research has been carried out.
Title and Abstract
The first page of the article should begin with the title and the names of the authors with their affiliations. The affiliations should consist of the author’s institution, town/city, and country. No academic titles or descriptions of academic positions should be included.
The abstract should be a short summary of the paper that needs to be understood without reference to the paper itself. Abstract reflects the scientific content of the paper and contains information about problems, methods and results. Abstract should not contain acknowledgements, any undefined abbreviations, citations and references to figures, equations, etc. Abstract's optimal size is 150 to 250 words.
Provide 4 to 10 keywords and (or) phrases separated by commas right after the abstract.
Headings
Use up to three levels of headings with the decimal system. Do not place a full stop at the end of a heading. Do not number Introduction and Conclusion.
Figures and Tables
Figures and Tables should be placed near their first reference. There should not be a full stop at the end of the caption.
In figures, authors should restrict their use of color to situations where it is necessary on scientific, and not merely cosmetic grounds as well as avoid unnecessary complexity, coloring and excessive detail.
The pictures should be in at least 300 dpi resolution.
Place source code listings as figures. Proper code indentation is mandatory.
Footnotes
Footnotes should be designated within the text using a superscript number. It is not allowed to use footnotes for references/citations.
References and Reference List
Reference citations in the text should be identified by numbers in square brackets (not superscript), separated by a comma and a space. Multiple references forming a range of numbers should be written as that range using a dash between the numbers.
The list of references should only include works that are cited in the text and that have been published or accepted for publication. The references should be listed in alphabetical order or in order of appearance.
We strongly encourage authors to include DOIs (Digital Object Identifiers) in references. The DOI is a unique code assigned by the publisher to each online paper or journal article. It provides a stable way of finding published papers and increasing their visibility. Most digital libraries (e.g. ACM DL, DBLP, IEEE Xplore) provide metadata with DOI. Authors may also use CrossRef service to find DOIs.
Authors may format references manually or they can use BibTeX with the bibtex file superfri.bst, which is included in SuperFrI's LaTeX macro package and provides automatical formatting of reference list. When using BibTeX authors should prepare bibliographic file(s) manually or they can use bibtex records provided by the most digital libraries (e.g. ACM DL, DBLP, IEEE Xplore).

LaTeX
Authors should prepare manuscripts in LaTeX using SuperFrI's LaTeX macro package. Please do not change contents of class (superfri.cls) and bibliographic style (superfri.bst) files when preparing your article. With any questions and suggestions regarding SuperFrI's LaTeX macro package please contact Technical Editor (Mikhail Zymbler, mzym@susu.ru).
