2. Electronic Submission

The manuscripts must be prepared in the following formats:

• TeX, LaTeX (strongly recommended) - download a template file, AMSTeX, AMSLaTeX
• MS Word (97) or higher) either as standard DOCUMENT (.doc) or RICH TEXT FORMAT (.rtf)

For submissions we accept PDF files. Authors are asked to prepare the bibliography according to the Journal's style, please see CEJCS Guidelines to bibliographic references.

All submissions to CEJCS must be made electronically via Editorial Manager - an online submission and peer review system at http://www.editorialmanager.com/cejcs . First-time users must create an Author account to obtain a user ID and password required to enter the system. All manuscripts receive individual identification codes that should be used in any correspondence with regard to the publication process.

For the authors already registered in Editorial Manager it is enough to enter their username and password to log in as author ('Author Login' button).

If you experience difficulties with the manuscript submission website, please contact the Managing Editor (Dr. Adam Naumowicz) anaumowicz@versita.com

All authors of the manuscript are responsible for its content; they must have agreed to its publication and have given the corresponding author the authority to act on their behalf in all matters pertaining to publication. The corresponding author is responsible for informing the coauthors of the manuscript status throughout the submission, review, and production process.

3. Organization of the Manuscript
Articles should be organized into the following sections:

• Title page: Title, Name(s) of Author(s), Affiliation(s), Personal e-mail address(es)
• Abstract
• Keywords
• Text
• Acknowledgments (if applicable)
• References

Each of these elements is detailed below.

3.1. Title
We suggest the title should be relatively short but informative. If a long title is necessary, please prepare an optional short title.

3.2. Name(s) of Author(s)
List of all authors of a paper. We need full first name, initial(s) for middle name(s) and full second name.

3.3. Afliation(s)
Please indicate authors' affiliations here. Affiliations should include:

• Department
• University
• City
• Country
• Personal e-mail address(es

The author's e-mail address is required. For multiple authorship, we need at least the personal e-mail address of the corresponding author.

3.4. Abstract
An abstract should accompany every article. It should be a brief summary of significant results of the paper. An abstract should give concise information about the content of the core idea of your paper. It should be informative and not only present the general scope of the paper but also indicate the main results and conclusions.
An abstract should not exceed 200 words. It should not contain literature citations, allusions to tables, figures or illustrations. All nonstandard symbols and abbreviations should be defined. In combination with the title and keywords, an abstract is an indicator of the content of the paper.
Please remember that online systems rely heavily on the content of titles and abstracts to identify articles in electronic bibliographic databases and search engines. We ask you to take great care in preparing these elements.

3.5. Keywords
List all keywords separated by commas.

3.6. Text
General rules for writing:

• use simple and declarative sentences, avoid long sentences, in which the meaning may be lost by complicated construction;
• be concise, avoid idle words;
• make your argumentation complete; use commonly understood terms; define all nonstandard symbols and abbreviations when you introduce them;
• explain all acronyms and abbreviations when they first appear in the text;
• use all units consistently throughout the article;
• be self-critical as you review your drafts.

3.6.1. Structure of a paper
Research papers, review articles and vision papers should follow a strict structure. Generally a standard scientific paper is divided into:

• introduction: present the subject of your paper clearly, indicate the scope of the subject, present;
• the goals of your paper and finally the organization of your paper;
• main text: present all important elements of your scientific message;
• conclusion: summarize your paper.

3.6.2. Footnotes/Endnotes/Acknowledgements
We encourage authors to restrict the use of footnotes. If necessary, please make endnotes rather than footnotes. A footnote/endnote may include:

• the designation of the corresponding author of the paper;
• the current address of an author (if different from that shown in the affiliation);
• traditional footnote content.

Information concerning research grant support should appear in a separate Acknowledgements section at the end of the paper, not in a footnote. Acknowledgements of the assistance of colleagues or similar notes of appreciation should also appear in the Acknowledgements section, not in footnotes.

3.6.3. Tables
You should use tables only to improve conciseness or where the information cannot be given satisfactorily in other ways. Tables should be numbered serially and referred to in the text by number. Each table should have an explanatory caption which should be as concise as possible.

3.6.4. Figures
You may use line diagrams and photographs to illustrate theses from your text. The figures should be clear, easy to read and of good quality.

3.6.5. English language
Central European Journal of Computer Science is published in English. Make sure that your manuscript is clearly and grammatically written. The content should be understandable and should not cause any confusion to the readers, including the referees. After accepting the manuscript for a publication in CEJCS we offer a free language check service, for correcting minor language mistakes.

3.7. References
References should be listed alphabetically. A complete reference should give the reader enough information to find the relevant article. Please pay particular attention to spelling, capitalization and punctuation here. Because all references will be linked electronically to the papers they cite, proper formatting of the references is crucial (see CEJCS Guidelines to bibliographic references for details). Completeness of references is the responsibility of the authors.

4. Submission of Revised Articles
When revision of a manuscript is requested, authors are expected to deliver the revised version of the manuscript as soon as possible. The manuscript should be uploaded directly to the Editorial Manager as an answer to the Editor's decision, and not as a new manuscript. If it is the 1st revision authors need to return revised manuscript within 60 days; if it is the 2nd revision authors need to return revised manuscript within 14 days. Additional time for resubmission must be requested in advance. If the above mentioned deadlines are not met, the manuscript will be rejected and the resubmitted version will be treated as a new submission.

5. Outline of the Production Process
Once an article has been accepted for publication, the manuscript files are transferred into our production system to be language-edited and formatted. Language/technical editors reserve the privilege of editing manuscripts to conform with the stylistic conventions of the journal. Once the article has been typeset, PDF proofs are generated so that authors can approve all editing and layout.

6. Proofreading
Proofreading should be carried out once a final draft has been produced. Since the proofreading stage is the last opportunity to correct the article to be published, the authors are requested to make every efort to check for errors in their proofs before the paper is posted online. Authors may be asked to address remarks and queries from the language and/or technical editors. Queries are written only to request necessary information or clarification of an unclear passage. Please note that language/technical editors do not query at every instance where a change has been made. It is the author's responsibility to read the entire text, tables, and figure legends, not just items queried. Major alterations made will always be submitted to the authors for approval. Corresponding author receives e-mail notification when a PDF file is available and should return the comments within 3 days of receipt. Comments must be submitted via email.

7. Online publication
Online First articles are complete full-text articles published online in advance of their publication in a fully assembled online and printed issue. The manuscripts are considered to be ready for publication online when the final proofreading has been performed by authors, and all concerns have been resolved.
Authors should note that OnlineFirst articles are complete and final and thus no changes can be made after online publication. The nature of OnlineFirst articles means that they do not yet have volume, issue or page numbers, so OnlineFirst articles cannot be cited in the traditional way. They are therefore given a Digital Object Identifier (DOI), which allows the article to be cited and tracked before it is allocated to an issue. After print publication the DOI remains valid and can continued to be used to cite and access the article.

8. Transfer of Copyright Agreement
Once the paper is accepted, authors are assumed to have transferred the copyright of the paper to the publisher Versita. A properly completed Transfer of Copyright Agreement, signed by the Corresponding Author on behalf of all the authors, must be provided for each submitted manuscript as a condition of publication. A form can be downloaded from the journal's webpage. Authors are asked to email a scanned copy of the signed original to the Managing Editor of CEJCS at anaumowicz@versita.com
