Abstracts

The abstracts should be written using LaTeX and the slafes.cls style  
file (based on 'iopmas' class style). It must provide concise  
information about the content of the contribution and indicate the  
main results obtained and conclusions drawn. As the abstract is not a  
short paper; no tables, figures, references or displayed mathematical  
expressions should be included. It should be suitable for direct  
inclusion in abstracting services and it should not exceed 200 words.  
The abstract should generally be restricted to a single paragraph.  
Since contemporary information-retrieval systems rely heavily on the  
content of titles and abstracts to identify relevant articles in  
literature searches, great care should be taken in constructing both.  
The abstract has to be sent by e-mail to [email-masked] and has  
to be labelled both in the subject and the filename with the surname  
of the first author followed by the initials of the name (for example:  
Garcia-CF.tex). An example and templates files can be found

open-access journal and we are makng an effort to offer other printed  
formats (paper, CD). Regular papers should be nor exceed 5 printed  
pages. An electronic version of paper and two printed copies should be
