As part of the submission process, authors are required to check off their submission's compliance with all of the following items, and submissions may be returned to authors that do not adhere to these guidelines.

1. Is your manuscript written in TeIKa Article Template ?  At this stage, it is essential that you  follow every detail of TeIKa Article Template. Please try to follow the format as closely as possible. The minimum number of pages per article is 9 pages, and the maximum number of pages is 15 pages.
2. Is your title adequate and is your abstract correctly written? The title of paper is max 10 words, without Acronym or abbreviation. The Abstract (MAX 250 WORDS) should be informative and completely self-explanatory (no citation in abstract), provide a clear statement of the problem, the proposed approach or solution, and point out major findings and conclusions.
3. Authors are suggested to present their articles in the sections structure: 1. Introduction - 2. Research Method - 3. Results - 4. Conclusion/Disscussion . Authors may present complex proofs of theorems or non-obvious proofs of correctness of algorithms after introduction section (obvious theorems & straightforward proofs of existing theorems are NOT needed).
4. Introduction section: explain the context of the study and state the precise objective. An Introduction should contain the following three parts:
   - Background: Authors have to make clear what the context is. Ideally, authors should give an idea of the state-of-the art of the field the report is about.
   - The Problem: If there was no problem, there would be no reason for writing a manuscript, and definitely no reason for reading it. So, please tell readers why they should proceed reading. Experience shows that for this part a few lines are often sufficient.
   - The Proposed Solution: - authors may outline the contribution of the manuscript. Here authors have to make sure readers point out what are the novel aspects of authors work.
   Authors should place the paper in proper context by citing relevant papers. At least, 5 references (recently journal articles) are used in this section.
5. Method section: the presentation of the experimental methods should be clear and complete in every detail facilitating reproducibility by other scientists.
6. Results and discussion section: The presentation of results should be simple and straightforward in style. This section report the most important findings, including results of statistical analyses as apropriate and comparisons to other research results. Results given in figures should not be repeated in tables. This is where the author(s) should explain in words what he/she/they discovered in the research. It should be clearly laid out and in a logical sequence. This section should be supported suitable references.
7. Conclusion/Disscussion section: Summarize sentences the primary outcomes of the study in a paragraph. Are the claims in this section supported by the results, do they seem reasonable? Have the authors indicated how the results relate to expectations and to earlier research? Does the article support or contradict previous theories? Does the conclusion explain how the research has moved the body of scientific knowledge forward? 

   After the Conclusion, you to explain to your readers where you think the results can lead you. What do you think are the next steps to take? What other questions do your results raise? Do you think certain paths seem to be more promising than others?

8. Language. If an article is poorly written due to grammatical errors, while it may make it more difficult to understand the science. You could use Language and Proofing Tools as provided with Microsoft Word, or use Grammarly to check for grammatical errors.
9. Please be sure that the manuscript is up to date. It is expected that 10 to 20%  of references are to recent papers.
10. Is the manuscript clearly written?  Is the article exciting? Does the content flow well from one section to another? Please try to keep your manuscript on the proper level.  It should be easy to understand by well qualified professionals, but at the same time please avoid describing well known facts (use proper references instead). Often manuscripts receive negative reviews because reviewers are not able to understand the manuscript and this is authors' (not reviewers') fault.  Notice, that if reviewers have difficulties, then other readers will face the same problem and there is no reason to publish the manuscript.
11. Do you have enough references?  We will usually expect a minimum of 10 to 25 references primarily to journal papers, depending on the length of the paper. Citations of textbooks should be used very rarely and citations to web pages should be avoided. All cited papers should be referenced within the text of the manuscript.
12. Figures and Tables. Relation of Tables or Figures and Text: Because tables and figures supplement the text, all tables and figures should be referenced in the text. Authors also must explain what the reader should look for when using the table or figure. Focus only on the important point the reader should draw from them, and leave the details for the reader to examine on her own.
    
    Figures:
    a.    All figures appearing in article must be numbered in the order that they appear in the text.
    b.    Each figure must have a caption fully explaining the content
    c.    Figure captions are presented as a paragraph starting with the figure number i.e. Figure 1, Figure 2, etc.
    d.    Figure captions appear below the figure
    e.    Each figure must be fully cited if taken from another article
    f.    All figures must be referred to in the body of the article. Figure should appear soon after the citation in the text.
    
    Tables:
    a.    Material that is tabular in nature must appear in a numbered captioned table.
