Useful Resources for Authors

Article Preparation Guidelines:Authors are expected to attach an electronic covering letter completely mentioning the type of manuscript (e.g, Research article, Review articles, Brief Reports, Case study etc.) Unless invited on a special case, authors cannot classify a particular manuscript as Editorials or Letters to the editor or concise communications.

Please make sure that the article submitted for review/publication is not under consideration elsewhere simultaneously.

Clearly mention financial support or benefits if any from commercial sources for the work reported in the manuscript, or any other financial interests that any of the authors may have, which could create a potential conflict of interest or the appearance of a conflict of interest with regard to the work.

A clear title of the article along with complete details of the author/s (professional/institutional affiliation, educational qualifications and contact information) must be provided in the tile page.

Corresponding author should include address, telephone number, fax number and e-mail address in the first page of the manuscript and authors must address any conflict of interest with others once the article is published.

Number all sheets in succession, including references, tables and figure legends.

Title page is page 1. On the first page, type the running head (short title for top of each page), title (which cannot include any acronyms), names of the authors and their academic degrees, grants or other financial supporters of the study, address for correspondence and reprint requests and corresponding author’s telephone and fax numbers and e-mail address.

Guidelines for Research Articles:

Research articles are articles written based on the empirical/secondary data collected using a clearly defined research methodology, where conclusion/s is drawn from the analysis of the data collected.

The information must be based on original research that adds to the body of knowledge in Electrical Engineering and Electronic Technology.

Article/s should provide a critical description or analysis of the data presented while adding new and rapidly evolving areas in the field.

Include an abstract of maximum 300 words with 7 to 10 important keywords.

The abstract should be divided into Aim/Objective, Materials &Methods, Results, Discussion and Conclusion.

Research articles must adhere to a format constituting the introduction followed by a brief review of relevant literature, methodology applied (to collect the data), discussion and References, Tables, and Figure Legends.

Review Articles:

Review articles are written based mostly on secondary data that is falling in line with the theme of the journal. They are brief, yet critical discussions on a specific aspect of the subject concerned. Reviews generally start with the statement of the problem with a brief abstract of 300 words and few key words. Introduction generally brings the issue forward to the readers followed by analytical discussion with the help of necessary tables, graphs, pictures and illustrations wherever necessary. It summarizes the topic with a conclusion. All the statements or observations in the review articles must be based on necessary citations, providing complete reference at the end of the article.

Commentaries:

Commentaries are opinion articles written mostly by the veteran and experienced writers on a specific development, recent innovation or research findings that fall in line with the theme of the journal. They are very brief articles with the title and abstract that provides the gist of the topic to be discussed, with few key words. It straight away states the problems and provides a thorough analysis with the help of the illustrations, graphs and tables if necessary. It summarizes the topic with a brief conclusion, citing the references at the end.

Case Study:

Case studies are accepted with a view to add additional information related to the investigative research that advances in the field of Electrical Engineering and Electronic Technology.

It should add value to the main content/article submitted, by providing key insights about the core area. Cases reports must be brief and follow a clear format such as Cases and Methods Section (That describe the nature of the clinical issue and the methodology adopt to address it), discussion section that analyzes the case and a Conclusion section that sums up the entire case.

Editorials:

Editorials are concise commentaries on a currently published article/issue on Electrical Engineering and Electronic Technology. Editorial office may approach for any such works and authors must submit it within three weeks from the date of receiving invitation.

Images:

Images are nothing but photographic depictions of Electrical Engineering and Electronic Technology it should not exceed more than 5 figures with a description, not exceeding 300 words. Generally no references and citations are required here. If necessary, only three references can be allowed.

Do not add separate figure legends to clinical images; the entire clinical image text is the figure legend. Images should be submitted with the manuscript in one of the following formats: .tiff (preferred) or .eps.

Letters to the Editor/Concise Communications:

Letters to the editor should be limited to commentaries on previous articles published with specific reference to issues and causes related to it.� It should be concise, comprehensive and brief reports of cases or research findings. It does not follow a format such as abstract, subheads, or acknowledgments. It is more a response or the opinion of the reader on a particular article published and should reach the editor within 6 months of article publication.

Acknowledgement:

This section includes acknowledgment of people, grant details, funds, etc.

Note: If an author fails to submit his/her work as per the above instructions, they are pleased to maintain clear titles namely headings, subheadings and respective subtitles.

References:

Only published or accepted manuscripts should be included in the reference list. Meetings abstracts, conference talks or papers that have been submitted but not yet accepted should not be cited. All personal communications should be supported by a letter from the relevant authors.Cognivoxi uses the numbered citation (citation-sequence) method. References are listed and numbered in the order that they appear in the text. In the text, citations should be indicated by the reference number in square brackets. Multiple citations count shouldn’t be exceeded [1-8] within a single set of brackets. A range should be given where there are three or more sequential citations. Example: “now enable biologists to simultaneously monitor the expression of thousands of genes in a single experiment [1, 5-7, 28].” Make sure the parts of the manuscript are in the correct order for the relevant journal before ordering the citations. Figure captions and tables should be at the end of the manuscript.

Authors are requested to provide at least one online link for each reference as following (preferably PubMed).Because all references will be linked electronically as much as possible to the papers they cite, proper formatting of the references is crucial. Please use the following style for the reference list:

Examples:

Published Papers:

Laemmli UK (1970) Cleavage of structural proteins during the assembly of the head of bacteriophage T4. Nature 227:680-685.
