The full postal address of the author who will check proofs and receive correspondence should also be included.

The title should be followed by an abstract of maximum 300 words.

Tables and captions to illustrations:

All line diagrams and photographs are termed "Figures" and should be numbered consecutively. Figure captions must be saved separately, as part of the file containing the complete text of the paper, and numbered correspondingly. Figures should be given short descriptive captions.

As an author, you are required to secure permission if you want to reproduce any figure, table, or extract from the text of another source. This applies to direct reproduction as well as "derivative reproduction" (where you have created a new figure or table which derives substantially from a copyrighted source).

Proofs:

Will be made available to corresponding authors. They should be corrected and returned to the publisher within three days. Major alterations to the text cannot be accepted.

Copyright: 

It is a condition of publication that authors assign copyright or licence the publication rights in their articles, including abstracts, to IJECER. This enables us to ensure full copyright protection and to disseminate the article, and of course the Journal, to the widest possible readership in print and electronic formats as appropriate. Authors retain many rights under the publisher rights policies, which can be found at www.ijecer.net.  Authors are themselves responsible for obtaining permission to reproduce copyrighted material from other sources.
