As for the tables, they are to be designed to have a uniform style throughout the proceeding volume with the caption of the table placed on the the top.  Figures are to be prepared in black and white in high resolution for half-tone illustrations or images.  The pictures are to be sharp for reproduction to avoid being rejected.  Color images are not acceptable.  It is important to note the illustrations such as figures, tables, chemical equations should be embedded in the text where they are cited.
5. The proceedings will be distributed to all the registered technical participants.  The manuscript will be printed directly without any further editing.  Photocopies are not acceptable.  As there will be no proof corrections allowed we advise all authors to check their manuscript thoroughly before submission.
