Instructions to the Authors for Manuscripts Preparation

[Also refer to "A Guide to Submitting Manuscripts on Disk"]

Introduction
The Proceedings of the “2nd IAEA Technical Committee Meeting on Control, Data Acquisition and Remote Participation on Fusion Research”, hereinafter referred to as TCM, will be published, after a refeering procedure, in a special issue of FUSION ENGINEERING AND DESIGN, published by ELSEVIER Science SA.

Submission of Manuscripts
Contributions are subject to peer review and should be submitted in triplicate (original plus two copies) with original drawings of the figures and an abstract of 100-200 words. They should be written in English, and should bear the name(s) and full affiliation(s) of the author(s) and the mailing address, phone and fax numbers, and email address of the corresponding author.
Manuscripts should be submitted to:
	Dr. Carlos Varandas
	Centro de Fusão Nuclear
	Instituto Superior Técnico
Av. Rovisco Pais
1049-001 Lisboa, Portugal
or delivered to the TCM secretariat before 12.00 a.m. 19 July 1999. Contributions received after this date will not be published in the TCM Proceedings.Manuscript Preparation

Text and formulae
The text should be typewritten on one side of the paper only with double spacing, and a wide margin. The article should be logically divided into sections and subsections with Arabic numbering.
Mathematical formulae should be clearly written, with special consideration to distinctive legibility of sub- and superscripts. All Greek letters and unusual symbols should be identified in the margin the first time they are used. Equations (at least the principal ones) should be numbered consecutively using Arabic numerals in parentheses in the right hand margin. Nomenclature should conform to that most frequently used in the engineering field concerned; a list of nomenclature used should be included.
References
References to published literature should be quoted in the text using the name(s) or the author(s) followed by a number in square brackets in the sequence of citation. The references should be listed on a separate sheet (and not given as footnotes) in the same way as in the following examples.

For a paper in a contributed volume [4] J.E. Dendy, Jr., B. Swartz and B. Wendroff, Computing travelling wave solutions of a nonlinear heat equation, in J.J.H. Miller (ed.), Topics in Numerical Analysis, Vol. III, Academic Press, London, 1977, pp. 447- 463.
For a laboratory report: [5] R.L. Beck, Research and development of metal hydrides, USAEC Report, Denver Research Institute, LAR-10, November 1960.

Tables
Tables should be typed on separate sheets. They should be numbered consecutively and have a complete descriptive title. Tables should not repeat data which are available elsewhere in the paper, e.g. in a diagram.

Figures
Figures should be original laser-printed or ink drawings or glossy prints ready for direct reproduction. Xerox copies are unacceptable as they give unsatisfactory results after final printing. Figures should be drawn in such a way that they can be reduced to 7.6 cm (3”) in which (i.e. the column width); in exceptional cases a reduction to a width of 16 cm (61/8”) will be allowed. All lettering should be such that a height of 1.5-1.8 mm (0.06”-0.07”) of numbers and capital letters results after reduction. Numerical scales, scale and curve legends, and all other lettering within the figure itself should be laser-printed or should be done using stripletters (Letraset, etc.). All figures should have captions. Each should be identified in the margin with the name of the author and the figure number. The figure captions should be typed on a separate sheet.
The length of the printed paper could not exceed six pages. Rules for the reliable and simple calculation of the number of printed pages of a manuscript consisting of text, table and figures are available in the TCM site.

Photographs
Black-and-white photographs are published free of charge in the journal. Illustration can be printed in colour when they are judged to be essential to the presentation. The author will bear the extra costs involved. Further information concerning colour illustrations and the costs to the author can be obtained from the publisher.

Changes in Proof
It should be noted that authors may be charged for additional changes, other than correcting typographical errors, once the article has been set in proof.

Offprints of Published Articles
The publisher does not levy page charges against authors. Moreover, each first named author will receive twenty-five free offprints of his (her) article from the publisher. Further offprints can be ordered at prices shown on the offprint order form which will be sent with the copyright transfer form.

Copyright
Upon acceptance of an article and following its receipt at the Publisher, the author(s) will be sent a form asking for transfer of copyright in the article to the publisher. This transfer will ensure the widest possible dissemination of information.
