- Introduction
This is a template to duplicate exactly with respect to the required format of your review. Please duplicate the style (fonts, font sizes, spacing, headings, reference style, etc.) of your paper using this example. Do not put your title in caps (prepare exactly as shown above). Centre your name and affiliation information (do not use titles, such as Mr, Ms. etc.).
- Report Preparation Area
The printing area is 122 mm × 193 mm (4.8 inches × 7.6 inches). The text should be justified to occupy the full line width, so that the right margin is not ragged, with words hyphenated as appropriate. Use paper size A4 210 mm × 297 mm (8.27 inches × 11.69 inches), Top and Bottom margins: 20 mm and 20 mm, Left and Right margins: 20 mm
Use 11-point type for the name(s) of the author(s), 9-point type for email and Keywords, and 10-pint type for the Abstract or Summary.
For the main text, please use 11-point type and 1.5 line spacing, Times. Italic type may be used to emphasize words in running text. Bold type and underlining should be avoided. The required page size of full report is 10 pages, with a minimum of 7 pages. References and (any appendices) are not included in this limit. Any content after page 10 (except for references)will not be marked.
Headings. Headings should be capitalized (i.e., nouns, verbs, and all other words except articles, prepositions, and conjunctions should be set with an initial capital) and should, with the exception of the title, be aligned to the left. Words joined by a hyphen are subject to a special rule; if the first word can stand alone, the second word should be capitalised. The font sizes are given in Table 1.
Tables. Table captions should always be positioned above the tables as shown in Table 1. Tables should be labelled sequentially as 1, 2 etc.
A maximum of 1 Table should be used in your Report, and it should be included within the 8 page limit.
Table 1. Font sizes of headings.
Heading level | Example | Font size and style |
Title (centered) | Lecture Notes … | 14 point, bold |
1st-level heading | 1 Introduction | 12 point, bold |
2nd-level heading | 2.1 Sub-headings | 11 point, bold |
3rd-level heading | Acknowledgments, Contributions | 10 point, bold |
- Figures
Figures should be numbered and should have a caption which should always be positioned under the figures, in contrast to the caption belonging to a table. Please centre the captions between the margins and set them in 9-point type (Fig. 1 shows an example). The distance between text and figure should be about 8 mm, the distance between figure and caption about 6 mm.
A maximum of 1 Figure should be used in your Report, and it should be included within the 10-page limit.
Fig. 1. This is an example of how any figures you have used should be labelled. Ensure the label is below the illustration, in 9-point and centred
