Organization of manuscript


The manuscript should be prepared in the following sequence: cover letter, title page with authors and affiliations, abstract and keywords, main text, acknowledgments, references, tables, figure legends, followed by figures. Cover letter, title page, and figures should be on separate files, and main texts are differently organized according to the publication type.

1) Cover letter

The cover letter to the Editor must declare that a submitted manuscript has not been published and is not under simultaneous consideration for publication elsewhere in whole or in part in any language except in the form of an abstract. The cover letter must also state that authors understand that the manuscript may be regarded as redundant or duplicated if the manuscript contains any portion (defined as a paper, data, tables, or figures) that overlap substantially with information that has already been published. The cover letter accompanying the manuscript must specify the type of manuscript and include statements on ethical issues and conflict of interests, and complete contact information for the corresponding author.

2) Title page

The article title must be specific and effective, with a maximum length of 14 words. Use simple, A Literature Review of Smart Contract Performance Across Blockchain Environments.

3) Abstract and keywords

All original, review articles, case reports, and tutorials must include structured abstracts of 200 to 250 words and should be organized and include the Objectives, Methods, Results, and Conclusions of the study. Five keywords should be listed at the bottom of abstract. Considerable care should be taken for selecting keywords because they will be used for subject indexing in this Journal and in other databases.

4) Main text

The main body of the manuscript submitted as an original article should be prepared under the designated subheadings: Introduction, Methods, Results, and Discussion. The other forms of manuscripts are organized in different formats. More details are explained in later sections for the original articles and the other types of manuscripts, respectively. The subheadings for this section are classified as I, 1. 1), and (1) in sequence.

5) Acknowledgments

All names of people who contributed substantially, but have not met the criteria for authorship such as administrative support, technical assistance, and critical reviews of the manuscript, are acknowledged here. All sources of funding applicable to the study should be stated here explicitly.

6) References

BFRONT has adopted the stylistic and formatting recommendations of the IEEE Format, from which highlights are given in the later section. Authors are responsible for the accuracy and completeness of their references and correct in-text citations. In-text Citation should be made by giving consecutive Arabic numerals in brackets such as [1], [2, 3], [4-6], and [2, 7-9]. In the reference section, the references should be numbered and listed in order of appearance in the text. List all authors if there are less than or equal to six authors, and list the first six authors followed by “et al.” if there are more than six authors.

7) Tables and figures

Each table should be prepared on a separate page. Tables are used to present data that cannot be incorporated conveniently into the text. Number of tables in order of citation in the text and avoid repetition of data. Tables should have a concise and informative title with the table content between horizontal lines. Vertical lines are not used. A table should not exceed one page when printed. Use lower case letters in superscripts a, b, c... for special remarks. Figures and illustrations should be prepared professionally.Graphics should be prepared in high quality with high tones and resolution. Photographs must be of sufficient contrast to withstand the inevitable loss of contrast and detail during the printing process. If a figure is to be reduced, be sure that all elements, including labels, can withstand reduction and remain legible. Microscopic figures must be original or scanned copies from the original, indicating the magnification with a scale bar on each micrograph.

Citations of tables and figures in the text or parentheses are presented as follows; Table 1, Figure 1, Tables 1, 2, Figures 1, 2, Tables 1-3, and Figures 1-3. When the text refers to both figures and tables, they should be mentioned in parentheses, e.g., (Table 1; Figure 2) or (Tables 1-3; Figures 4-6).
