This is a guide for authors who are preparing papers for International Journal of Computer Applications using the LATEX
document preparation system and the ijcaArticle class file.

1.

INTRODUCTION

The LATEX document preparation system is a special version of the
TEX; typesetting program where-in a collection of TEX; commands
are added to LATEX to simplify typesetting. Importantly, it allows
the author to concentrate on the logical structure of the document
rather than its visual layout.

It is likely that the make up will change after file submission. For
this reason, we ask you to ignore details such as slightly long lines,
page stretching, or figures falling out of synchronization, as these
details can be dealt with at a later stage.
Use should be made of symbolic references (\ref) in order to protect against late changes of order, etc.

3.

USING THE IJCA ARTICLE CLASS FILE

If the file ijcaArticle.cls is not already in the appropriate system directory for LATEX files, either arrange for it to be put there or
copy it to your working directory. The ijcaArticle document
class is implemented as a complete class, not a document style
option. In order to use the ijcaArticle document class, replace
article by ijcaArticle in the \documentclass command at
the beginning of your document:
\documentclass{article}
replace by
\documentclass{ijcaArticle}

Moreover, LATEX provides a consistent and comprehensive document preparation interface. There are simple-to-use commands for
generating a table of contents, lists of figures and/or tables, and indexes. LATEX can automatically number list entries, equations, figures, tables, and footnotes, as well as articles, sections, and subsections. Using this numbering system, bibliographic citations, page
references, and cross references to any other numbered entity (e.g.
article, section, equation, figure, list entry, etc.) become quite simple and straightforward. The use of LATEX document classes allows
a simple change of class to transform the appearance of your document.

In general, the following standard document style options should
not be used with the article class file:
(1) 10pt, 11pt, 12pt unavailable;
(2) twoside (no associated style file) twoside is the default;
(3) fleqn,leqno,titlepage should not be used;

4.

ADDITIONAL DOCUMENT STYLE OPTIONS

The following additional style option is available with the
ijcaArticle class file:

LATEX is a powerful tool for managing long and complex documents. In particular, partial processing enables long documents to
be produced article by article without losing sequential information. The use of document classes allows a simple change of style
(or style option) to transform the appearance of your document.

Please place any additional command definitions at the very start
of the LATEX file, before the \begin{document}. For example,
userdefined \def and \newcommand commands that define macros
for technical expressions should be placed here. Other authordefined macros should be kept to a mininum.

2.

Commands that differ from the standard LATEX interface, or that are
provided in addition to the standard interface, are explained in this
guide. This guide is not a substitute for the LATEX manual itself.
Authors planning to submit their papers in LATEX are advised to use
\ijcaArticle.cls as early as possible in the creation of their
files.

THE IJCA ARTICLE DOCUMENT CLASS

The ijcaArticle class file preserves the standard LATEX interface such that any document that can be produced using the
standard LATEX article class can also be produced with the
ijcaArticle class file.

ADDITIONAL FACILITIES
LAT

In addition to all the standard
EX design elements, the
ijcaArticle class file includes the following features:
(1) Use of the \ijcaArticleNum{...}command for article
number.
(2) Use of the \ijcaMonth{...} \ijcaYear{...}command for
month and year of the paper.
(3) Use of the \ijcaVolume{...}ijcaNumber{...} commands for volume and issue number of the paper.
In general, once you have used the additional
ijcaArticle.clsfacilities in your document, do not process it
with a standard LATEX class file.

5.1

Titles, Authors Name, and Affiliation

The title of the article, authors name, and affiliation are used at the
beginning of the article (for the main title). These can be produced
using the following code:
\title{ This is an example of article title} }
\author{
\large 1st Author \\[-3pt]
\normalsize 1st author’s affiliation \\[-3pt]
\normalsize 1st line of address \\[-3pt]
\normalsize 2nd line of address \\[-3pt]

}
\maketitle

5.2

Abstracts, Key words, term etc...

At the beginning of your article, the title should be generated in
the usual way using the \maketitle command. For genaral tem
and keywords use \terms, \keywords commands respectively.
The abstract should be enclosed within an abstract environment,
All these environment can be produced using the following code:
\terms{Experimentation, Human Factors}
\keywords{Face animation, image-based modelling...}
\begin{abstract}
In this paper, we propose a new method for the
systematic determination of the model’s base of

time varying delay system. This method based on
the construction of the classification data related
to the considered system. The number, the orders,
the time delay and the parameters of the local
models are generated automatically without any
knowledge about the full operating range of the
process. The parametric identification of the local
models is realized by a new recursive algorithm for
on line identification of systems with unknown time
delay. The proposed algorithm allows simultaneous
estimation of time delay and parameters of
discrete-time systems. The effectiveness of
the new method has been illustrated through
simulation.

SOME GUIDELINES FOR USING STANDARD
FACILITIES

The following notes may help you achieve the best effects with the
ijcaArticle class file.

6.1

Sections

LAT

EX 2ε provides four levels of section headings and they are all
defined in the ijcaArticle class file:
—\section
—\subsection
—\subsubsection
—\paragraph
Section headings are automatically converted to allcaps style.

6.2

Lists

The ijcaArticle class file provides unnumbered lists using the
unnumlist environment for example,
First unnumbered item which has no label and is indented from the
left margin.
Second unnumbered item.
Third unnumbered item.
The unnumbered list which has no label and is indented from the
left margin. was produced by:
\begin{unnumlist}
\item First unnumbered item...
\item Second unnumbered item...
\item Third unnumbered item...
\end{unnumlist}
The ijcaArticle class file also provides hyphen list using the
itemize environment for example,
—First unnumbered bulleted item which has no label and is indented from the left margin.
—Second unnumbered bulleted item.
—Third unnumbered bulleted item which has no label and is indented from the left margin.
was produced by:

Fig. 2. This is example of the image in a column.

\begin{itemize}
\item First item...
\item Second item...
\item Third item...
\end{itemize}
Numbered list is also provided in acmtog class file using the enumerate environment for example,
(1) The attenuated and diluted stellar radiation.
(2) Scattered radiation, and
(3) Reradiation from other grains.
was produced by:
\begin{enumerate}
\item The attenuated...
\item Scattered radiation, and...
\item Reradiation from other grains...
\end{enumerate}

6.3

Illustrations (or figures)

The ijcaArticle class file will cope with most of the positioning
of your illustrations and you should not normally use the optional
positional qualifiers on the figure environment that would override these decisions.
Figure captions should be emphbelow the figure itself, therefore
the \caption command should appear after the figure or space
left for an illustration. For example, Figure 1 is produced using the
following commands:
\begin{figure}
\centerline{\includegraphics[width=20pc]{Graphics.eps}}
\caption{An example of the testing process for a
binary tree. The globa null hypothesis is tested
first at level $\alpha$ (a), and the level of
individual variables is reached last (d). Note
that individual hypotheses can be tested at
level $\alpha/4$ and not $\alpha/8$ as one might
expect at first.}
\label{sample-figure_2}
\end{figure}
Figures can be resized using first and second argument of
\includegraphics command. First argument is used for modifying figure height and the second argument is used for modifying
figure width respectively.
Cross-referencing of figures, tables, and numbered, displayed
equations using the \label and \ref commands is encouraged. For example, in referencing Figure 1 above, we used
Figure~\ref{sample-figure}

Tables

The ijcaArticle class file will cope with most of the positioning
of your tables and you should not normally use the optional positional qualifiers on the table environment which would override
these decisions. Table captions should be at the top.
\begin{table}

\end{table}

6.5

Landscaping Pages

If a table is too wide to fit the standard measure, it may be turned,
with its caption, to 90 degrees. Landscape tables cannot be produced directly using the ijcaArticle class file because TEX itself
cannot turn the page, and not all device drivers provide such a facility. The following procedure can be used to produce such pages.

(2) For landscape figures:
\begin{sidewaysfigure*}...\end{sidewaysfigure*}
(3) For Tables:
\begin{table*}...\end{table*}
(4) For landscape tables:
\begin{sidewaystable*}...\end{sidewaystable*}

6.7

The ijcaArticleclass file will set displayed mathematics with
center to the column width, provided that you use the LATEX 2ε standard of open and closed square brackets as delimiters. The equation

environments in your document to turn your table on the appropriate page of your document. For instance, the following code prints
a page with the running head, a message half way down and the
table number towards the bottom.
\begin{sidewaystable}
\tbl{Landscape table caption to go here.}{...}
\label{landtab}
\end{sidewaystable}

6.6

Double Column Figure and Tables

For generating the output of figures and tables in double column
we can use the following coding:
(1) For Figures:
\begin{figure*}...\end{figure*}

λi = (S)

i=1

was typeset using the acmtog class file with the commands
\[
\sum_{i=1}^p \lambda_i = (S)
\]
For display equations, cross-referencing is encouraged. For example,
\begin{equation}
(n-1)^{-1} \sum^n_{i=1} (X_i - \overline{X})^2.
\label{eq:samplevar}
\end{equation}
Equation~(\ref{eq:samplevar}) gives the formula for
sample variance.
The following output is generated with the above coding:

Use the package rotating in your document and change the coding from
\begin{table}...\end{table}
to
\begin{sidewaystable}...\end{sidewaystable}
and for figures
\begin{figure}...\end{figure}
to
\begin{sidewaysfigure}...\end{sidewaysfigure}

6.8

Enunciations

The ijcaArticle class file generates the enunciations with the
help of the following commands:
\begin{theorem}...\end{theorem}
\begin{strategy}...\end{strategy}
\begin{property}...\end{property}
\begin{proposition}...\end{proposition}
\begin{lemma}...\end{lemma}
\begin{example}...\end{example}
\begin{proof}...\end{proof}
\begin{definition}...\end{definition}
\begin{algorithm}...\end{algorithm}
\begin{remark}...\end{remark}
The above-mentioned coding can also include optional arguments
such as
\begin{theorem}[...]. Example for theorem:
\begin{theorem}[Generalized Poincare Conjecture]
Four score and seven ... created equal.
\end{theorem}

Balancing column at last page

For balancing the both column length at last page use :
\vadjust{\vfill\pagebreak}

at appropriate place in your TEX file or in bibliography file.

7.

REFERENCES

References are most easily (and correctly) generated using the BIBTEX, which is easily invoked via
\bibliographystyle{ijcaArticle}
\bibliography{author}
When submitting the document source (.tex) file to external parties,
it is strongly recommended that the BIBTEX .bbl file be manually
copied into the document (within the traditional LATEX bibliography
environment) so as not to depend on external files to generate the
bibliography and to prevent the possibility of changes occurring
therein.
