      1. Manuscripts hard copies in triplicate, and in English, should be submitted to the Editor-in-Chief:

      Prof.George A. Anastassiou

      Tel. 901.678.3144
      e-mail: ganastss@memphis.edu
Authors may want to recommend an associate editor the most related to the submission to possibly handle it.

      Also authors may want to submit a list of six possible referees, to be used in case we cannot find related referees by ourselves.


2. Manuscripts should be typed using any of TEX,LaTEX,AMS-TEX,or AMS-LaTEX and according to EUDOXUS PRESS, LLC. LATEX STYLE FILE. (Click HERE to save a copy of the style file.)They should be carefully prepared in all respects. Submitted copies should be brightly printed (not dot-matrix), double spaced, in ten point type size, on one side high quality paper 8(1/2)x11 inch. Manuscripts should have generous margins on all sides and should not exceed 24 pages.

3. Submission is a representation that the manuscript has not been published previously in this or any other similar form and is not currently under consideration for publication elsewhere. A statement transferring from the authors(or their employers,if they hold the copyright) to Eudoxus Press, LLC, will be required before the manuscript can be accepted for publication.The Editor-in-Chief will supply the necessary forms for this transfer.Such a written transfer of copyright,which previously was assumed to be implicit in the act of submitting a manuscript,is necessary under the U.S.Copyright Law in order for the publisher to carry through the dissemination of research results and reviews as widely and effective as possible.

4. The paper starts with the title of the article, author's name(s) (no titles or degrees), author's affiliation(s) and e-mail addresses. The affiliation should comprise the department, institution (usually university or company), city, state (and/or nation) and mail code.

      The following items, 5 and 6, should be on page no. 1 of the paper.

5. An abstract is to be provided, preferably no longer than 150 words.

6. A list of 5 key words is to be provided directly below the abstract. Key words should express the precise content of the manuscript, as they are used for indexing purposes.

      The main body of the paper should begin on page no. 1, if possible.

7. All sections should be numbered with Arabic numerals (such as: 1. INTRODUCTION) .
Subsections should be identified with section and subsection numbers (such as 6.1. Second-Value Subheading).
If applicable, an independent single-number system (one for each category) should be used to label all theorems, lemmas, propositions, corrolaries, definitions, remarks, examples, etc. The label (such as Lemma 7) should be typed with paragraph indentation, followed by a period and the lemma itself.

8. Mathematical notation must be typeset. Equations should be numbered consecutively with Arabic numerals in parentheses placed flush right,and should be thusly referred to in the text [such as Eqs.(2) and (5)]. The running title must be placed at the top of even numbered pages and the first author's name, et al., must be placed at the top of the odd numbed pages.

9. Illustrations (photographs, drawings, diagrams, and charts) are to be numbered in one consecutive series of Arabic numerals. The captions for illustrations should be typed double space. All illustrations, charts, tables, etc., must be embedded in the body of the manuscript in proper, final, print position. In particular, manuscript, source, and PDF file version must be at camera ready stage for publication or they cannot be considered.

    Tables are to be numbered (with Roman numerals) and referred to by number in the text. Center the title above the table, and type explanatory footnotes (indicated by superscript lowercase letters) below the table.

10. List references alphabetically at the end of the paper and number them consecutively. Each must be cited in the text by the appropriate Arabic numeral in square brackets on the baseline.
      References should include (in the following order):
     initials of first and middle name, last name of author(s)
      title of article,
      name of publication, volume number, inclusive pages, and year of publication.

      Authors should follow these examples:

          Journal Article

          1. H.H.Gonska,Degree of simultaneous approximation of bivariate functions by Gordon operators, (journal name in italics) J. Approx. Theory, 62,170-191(1990).

          Book

          2. G.G.Lorentz, (title of book in italics) Bernstein Polynomials (2nd ed.), Chelsea,New York,1986.

          Contribution to a Book

          3. M.K.Khan, Approximation properties of beta operators,in(title of book in italics) Progress in Approximation Theory (P.Nevai and A.Pinkus,eds.), Academic Press, New York,1991,pp.483-495.

     11. All acknowledgements (including those for a grant and financial support) should occur in one paragraph that directly precedes the References section.

     12. Footnotes should be avoided. When their use is absolutely necessary, footnotes should be numbered consecutively using Arabic numerals and should be typed at the bottom of the page to which they refer. Place a line above the footnote, so that it is set off from the text. Use the appropriate superscript numeral for citation in the text.

     13. After each revision is made please again submit three hard copies of the revised manuscript, including in the final one. And after a manuscript has been accepted for publication and with all revisions incorporated, manuscripts, including the TEX/LaTex source file and the PDF file, are to be submitted to the Editor's Office on a personal-computer disk, 3.5 inch size. Label the disk with clearly written identifying information and properly ship, such as:

     
     Your name, title of article, kind of computer used, kind of software and version number, disk format and files names of article, as well as abbreviated journal name.

     Package the disk in a disk mailer or protective cardboard. Make sure contents of disks are identical with the ones of final hard copies submitted!

     Note: The Editor's Office cannot accept the disk without the accompanying matching hard copies of manuscript. No e-mail final submissions are allowed! The disk submission must be used.


     14. Effective 1 Nov. 2009 for current journal page charges, contact the Editor in Chief. Upon acceptance of the paper an invoice will be sent to the contact author. The fee payment will be due one month from the invoice date. The article will proceed to publication only after the fee is paid. The charges are to be sent, by money order or certified check, in US dollars, payable to Eudoxus Press, LLC, to the address shown on the Eudoxus homepage.

      No galleys will be sent and the contact author will receive one(1) electronic copy of the journal issue in which the article appears.


     15. This journal will consider for publication only papers that contain proofs for their listed results.
