For publication in Advanced Sciences and Technology Journal The scientific paper has developed over the past three centuries into a tool to communicate the results of scientific inquiry. The main audience for scientific papers is extremely specialized. The purpose of these papers is twofold: to present information so that it is easy to retrieve, and to present enough information that the reader can duplicate the scientific study. A standard format with six main part helps readers to find the expected information and analysis:

• Title--subject and what aspect of the subject was studied.
• Abstract--summary of paper: The main reason for the study, the primary results, the main conclusions
• Abstract--summary of paper: The main reason for the study, the primary results, the main conclusions (try to make these elements as clear as you can, Statement of the problem, Objective, methodology, major results, and conclusion).
• Keywords--3 to 6 keywords that identify the main issues for the readership should be provided after the abstract
• Introduction--why the study was undertaken including the theoretical background (include these elements if applicable; Statement of the problem, Objective(s), and methodology)
• Methods and Materials--how the study was undertaken
• Results--what was found
• Discussion--why these results could be significant (what the reasons might be for the patterns found or not found)
• References –include all sources and citations used. Make sure you are using any of APA, MLA, Turabian, or Chicago Citation Styles. Other standard citation methods are also acceptable.

Materials submitted to this Journal are subject to a "preliminary review" to observe scientific writing methodology and the observation of writing scientific research rules. The Editorial Board at this stage determines eligibility for refereeing and shall have the right to apologize for accepting publication without giving reasons.

Only innovative materials are accepted, and priority is given to experimental and field research work conducted recently. Locally or internationally previously published work cannot be accepted

All research work submitted to the Journal are subject to scientific arbitration before publication in the Journal of an arbitral tribunal composed of two members of the scientific committees approved by the Supreme Council of Universities each in his specialty

Also, a third arbitrator judge the materials to determine the validity of the research for publication.

In the case of the materials offered needing minor or substantial changes, the editor sends the evaluation sheet with any notes from the referee to the author for correction or reply. If the work is not acceptable for publication by the arbitral tribunal the editor sends a letter of apology.

All materials offered to the journal will not be returned to their owners published or not. Upon arrival, after the amendment to the editor, the article will be included in the waiting list for the printing process, and the researcher receives a letter of acceptance waiting for the issue of the Journal to appear.
