The authors should provide an index of subject, namely the specific terms in the manuscript. The authors should also provide the index of authors, namely the key authors of papers referred in the manuscript. Please write the family name followed by the given name.

Citation

General characteristics of IEEE citations:

1. Uses numbers (numerical citation), not author name–year
2. Citation numbers are written in square brackets → [1]
3. Numbers are given in the order of their first appearance in the text
4. The bibliography is arranged numerically, not alphabetically
5. One source → one fixed number (does not change even if cited again)
6. It is recommended to use tools such as Mendeley, Zotero or other reference management tools.

References

The manuscript is expected to involve approximately15-25 primary and up-to-date references to assert high quality contributions to the knowledge development. Citations and references must strictly follow the IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) style. References should include only works that are cited within the text of the manuscript.
