It is assumed that a submitted manuscript has not been published elsewhere and is not under consideration by any other journal. All manuscripts are refereed and evaluated on content, language, and presentation. Manuscripts should be as short and concise as possible without loss of clarity. Publication format. The maximum amount of space on a printed JOS page is the area of 13.5 cm by 20.2 cm.   Preparation of Manuscripts Manuscripts should have generous margins, i.e., at least 2 cm on all sides and double spaced throughout, including the abstract and references.   Title. The title should be brief and specific. The title page should include the title, the author's name, affiliation, and address. (And the same information for all coauthors.)   Abstract and Key words. The abstract should be short (maximum of 150 words), descriptive, and free from citations. The key words should not repeat words used in title.   Acknowledgments, if any, are placed after the abstract and key words.   Sections should be numbered; sub- and sub-subsections may be used.   Tables, Figures, and Diagrams. A table should be numbered and have a title. Figures and diagrams should be numbered and have a title, legend, and clearly marked axes.   Mathematics. Equations cited in the text should also be numbered; numbers are placed to the right of the equation. Matrices should appear in italics and vectors in bold. All other symbols should appear in italics.   Reference citation. JOS uses the name and date system for citing a work in the text. For example: Dalenius (1974) Cox and Iachan (1987) Boruch and Cecil (1979, p. 154)   To distinguish between works by an author published in the same year, use a, b, c, etc. References in the text should conform to the following style:    1. When a reference is cited directly: as discussed by Dodge and Romig (1944)  2. When a reference is cited indirectly: as discussed previously   (Dodge and  Romig 1944)     3. A quotation requires a page number: "…the   study has benefited from…."  (Smith 1985, p.379)     4. When a reference   is made to a particular formula, page, section, chapter,  appendix,    etc.,the abbreviations p., pp., sec., ch., app., are used. Some     mathematical journals use the symbol § to denote a section. This is fine,     but it is reserved for sections only, not chapters, etc.   The Reference List. References should be arranged alphabetically and for a given author, chronologically.  1. Author's name and year of   publication.  2. Title    3. Details of publication. Complete name of   journal.
