– Editorial Board will want to see evidence on how the analysis and the results can be applied in practice. This is a key requirement. Always link your paper to practice.

– The content should be based on your own research and expressed in your own words. If it isn’t, that could be considered plagiarism.

– Check your paper with the English Language Expert before submission.

– The paper must highlight the practical significance of the work.

– Scientific and/or practical significance of the work (the paper presents new, original results or research methods; rationalization (clarification or other interpretation) of the published results; published with the purpose to disseminate original research and new developments within specific area).

– Title should be more specific (not the general one). Use Title Case for the paper title, i.e., capitalizing all main words.

– Abstract recommended size is to be in limits of 150-250 words. Please pay significant attention to this part of the paper. 150-250 words of abstract should have a goal, scientific novelty, practical value, main results, etc. The abstract should be an objective representation of the article: it must not contain results that are not presented and substantiated in the main text and should not exaggerate the main conclusions.

– In the Keywords, duplication of words(terms) from the title should be avoided.

– The structure of a paper is to be as follows: Introduction, Literature Review, Research Methodology, Results and Discussion, Conclusions, Acknowledgment.

Introduction should briefly place the study in a broad context and highlight why it is important. It should define the aim of the work and its significance, including specific hypotheses being tested. Keep the introduction comprehensible to scientists working outside the topic of the paper.

Literature Review, the current state of the research field should be reviewed carefully, and key publications cited. Please highlight controversial and diverging hypotheses when necessary. Finally, briefly highlight the main conclusions of the review. The Editorial Board highly encourages you to cite up-to-date literature (2019-2023 preferable), indexed by databases Scopus and Web of Science Core Collection (peer-reviewed journals with Q1/Q2 quartiles are preferable). The recommended References List is 15-25 literature resources. Please avoid non-English references and group references. Each reference should be discussed separately. Self-citation is allowed, but no more than 2 sources in the reference list. This issue will be strictly monitored.

In Research Methodology, methods should be described sufficiently to allow others to replicate and build on published results. New methods and protocols should be described in detail, while well-established methods can be briefly described and appropriately cited. Give the name and version of any software used and clarify whether computer code used is available.

Results and Discussion provide a concise and precise description of the experimental results, their interpretation, and the experimental conclusions that can be drawn. Authors should discuss the results and how they can be interpreted from previous studies and the working hypotheses. The findings and their implications should be discussed in the broadest context possible, and limitations of the work highlighted. Future research directions may also be mentioned.

Conclusions summarize the major results obtained by adding qualitative and quantitative data. Also, plans for further research may be added.

In Acknowledgment (if necessary), add information regarding funding or any other support that helped to obtain the research results.

– Authors should follow Springer’s authors’ guidelines (paper template) and use proceedings templates for the preparation of their papers. Papers with other formatting will be rejected without review.

– Conclusions should be qualitative and quantitative data to understand better the scientific novelty and the achieved results. Declarative conclusions are unacceptable.

It is desirable to include the DOI for each reference.
