How to Submit Manuscripts

   Article Style Information
     * Articles  should  be tutorial in nature and should be written in a
       style  comprehensible  to  readers  outside  the  specialty of the
       article.
     * Articles  may  be edited for clarity and grammatical accuracy, and
       will be copyedited according to the magazine's style.
     * Mathematical  equations  should not be used (in justified cases up
       to  three  simple equations could be allowed, provided the consent
       of  the Guest Editor; more than three equations require permission
       from the Editor-in-Chief).
     * References  should  be  included  only  to  guide  readers to more
       information  on  the  topic; the reference list should not include
       every  available source (a limit of ten references is recommended;
       more    than   15   references   require   permission   from   the
       Editor-in-Chief).  References to Web pages should not be used in a
       printed version of the article except for very justified cases and
       Web   sites   with   a   proven  stability,  e.g.,  such  as  IEEE
       Communications  Surveys  (see  also  section related to Multimedia
       Enhancement).
     * Articles  should  not exceed 4500 words. Figures and tables should
       be limited to a combined total of six.
