6. Paper Layout
• Structure : The structure of the paper must have the following sections : a cover
page, a title page table of contents, abstract, introduction, body, conclusions &
biblography.
• Details : The participants should furnish the following details on the cover page ::
Team name, names of the team members, contact address, phone numbers, e-
mail addresses and name of the institute.
• Title page : On the title page, only the title of the paper should appear. The title
should consist of the minimum number of keywords necessary to portray
accurately the contents of the paper. Reader’s interest is stimulated by a well-
: chosen title. The author’s name should NOT appear on the title page, nor should
any other person’s or institute’s.
• Table of Contents : The table of contents should consist of a list of the parts of the
paper and the page numbers, in order in which they occur.
• Abstract : The abstract should not describe the paper, but should give, in brief,
the essential facts of its contents; for example, a brief of the problem or objective
and a concise summary of the results or conclusion, touching upon methods or
other details only if they are unique or if they are of some particular significance.
The abstract should be no longer than 150 words.
• Introduction : The introduction should lead to the development of the subject so
that the reader may obtain a clear understanding of the significance of the paper
or article prepared. This can often be done by briefly giving the state of the art as
background and then by bringing out the added advantages of the method of
approach and emphasizing the importance of the results or conclusions.

7. Paper Layout
• Body : The main argument of the subject is carried out in the body of the paper,
complete with supporting data. The argument should proceed in a logical sequence
according to a prepared outline. The writing should be in the third person. Support data
and results can be presented most effectively as curves, charts or tables.
• Conclusion : The conclusion is often considered the most important part of a paper. It
should be stated concisely in a separate section at the end of the paper. If there are
three or more conclusions, better emphasis can be obtained by numbering each
conclusion and setting it off in a separate paragraph.
• References : To enable the reader to consult important works used by the author
identical to the preparation of his manuscript and other related literature, which might
be helpful, a suitable reference list should be appended.

8. Formatting
• The submission should only be in pdf format. Please do not send any other format.
• Maximum number pages of the paper should not exceed
• Recommendations should be in single column, Italics, Times New Roman, 12 point.
• The entire main report should be in Times New Roman, 12 point, single spacing.
