 1. INTRODUCTION

Manuscripts ( one original and two copies, maximum 25 pages) can be submitted to the MANAGING EDITOR or to any one of the members of the Editorial Board.

Manuscript submitted to this journal has not been published previously, has not been copyrighted, is not been submitted elsewhere and the author(s) agrees that the copyright for the article will be transferred to the publisher upon acceptance of the article.

Contribution to NEURAL, PARALLEL & SCIENTIFIC COMPUTATIONS will be reproduced by Camera-Ready from author's manuscript. The manuscript should be typed in one column on white sheets of paper with dark, sharp and clear letter quality type and must remain legible after 20 percent reduction( Times 12cpi or similar size fonts).The title of the manuscript should be typed in bold 16cpi size of the same font type.

Manuscript should be in English and typed 1.25 spaced, 6 inches width( margins 1.25 on left and right) and 9.5 inches deep( margins .75 on top and bottom) of 8.5X11 (or 8.5X14 ) white paper. The first page should have 1.75 inches top margin. Do not type page numbers. Use pencil to write page numbers on top right corners.

 2. SECTIONS AND SUBSECTIONS

2.1. Sections
Titles of all principal SECTIONS, ACKNOWLEDGEMENT, AND APPENDICES should be typed centered capitalized bold in the same font as the manuscript. Appendices should follow REFERENCES and should be indexed (A, B,...) or enumerated ( 1,2,...).

2.1.1 Subsections
Title of subsections should be typed bold left edge adjusted with the same font as the manuscript.

3. TEXT

Paragraphs should have 0.3 inch indent. First paragraph in a section/subsection or after expression or Figure should be typed without indent. Type all equations. Enumerate in Arabic numerals in parenthesis flush with margin. Number display equations consecutively. Reference citation should be typed in the text as follows ( Hebb, 1949; Rubner & Schulten, 1990; Ackley et al., 1985).

All acknowledgements for technical and financial support should go in the special section, which follows the text but precedes the references.

 4. PREPARATION OF CAMERA-READY ILLUSTRATIONS

Proper figure preparation is essential for optimum reproduction of line drawing and photograph. Figures and Tables should be placed as part of the text and should be numbered. Reprint can be ordered in multiple of 50 as soon as the article is accepted for publication.
