advantages, limitations, possible applications, and future work. The references
section is not assigned a number. References should be numbered in alphabetical
order by the first author's last name. Citations in the text should be by

results, and clarity of presentation are also considered as factors of the evaluation
process. Each article will be fully refereed by a minimum of two specialized
referees.
