Results

Appendices

References

References should be cited in the main text using Author-Year system. The full references should be given as below (essentially Harvard Referencing format), in the alphabetical order in 10 pt. Times New Roman, with a 6pt spacing between each. References should be arranged first alphabetically and then further sorted chronologically if necessary. More than one reference from the same author(s) in the same year must be identified by the letters "a", "b", "c", etc., placed after the year of publication.

Figures (eg, Figure 1) must be numbered consecutively, 1, 2, etc., from start to finish of the paper, ignoring sections and subsections. Tables (eg, Table 1) are also numbered consecutively, 1, 2, etc., from start to finish of the paper, ignoring sections and subsections, and independently from figures.
