 Manuscript Structure

Articles must contain writing containing, 1) Introduction, 2) Literature Review, 3) Methods (can include analysis, architecture, methods used to solve problems, implementation), 4) Results and Discussion, 5) Conclusions, and References. The text uses Times New Roman in 12 bold letters. The contents of the introduction are the answers to the questions: a. background, b. Brief literature review, c. The reason for this research is, d.

Writing in a foreign language is typed in italics. In narrative writing, no need to be given a special subtitle.

The problem formulation contains article questions that must be explained in the discussion and answered in the conclusion.

 LITERATURE REVIEW

A Literature Review in a scientific writing set can be interpreted as an affirmation of the limitations of scientific work. The essence of this section is fully contained in the keyword in the abstract section. Therefore, the preparation of any written work must be required to make a literature study.

In order not to be considered plagiarism of someone else's work, anyone needs to make a literature review by rewriting the language and words obtained in the literature search section. It's easy to use direct or indirect quotes.

Mathematical formulas are written in separate lines and are numbered on the right, written using Microsoft Equation. x+y=z (1).

 METHOD

The research method contains the type of research, sample and population or research subjects, time and place of research, instruments, procedures, and research techniques, as well as other matters relating to the method of research. This section can be divided into several sub-chapters, but no numbering is necessary.

 RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

This section contains data (in brief form), data analysis, and interpretation of the results. Results can be presented in tables or graphs to clarify the results verbally because sometimes the display of an illustration is completer and more informative than the display in narrative form.

This section must answer the problems or research hypotheses that have been formulated previously.

 CONCLUSION

The conclusion must be linked to the title and answer the research formulation or objectives. Do not make statements that are not adequately supported by your findings. Write down improvements made to industrial engineering or science in general. Don't create further discussion, repeat abstracts, or simply list research findings. Don't use bullet points, use paragraph sentences instead.

REFERENCES

Reference is a list of information cited in a text that is identified and taken by the author and is sourced from books and scientific articles. The information cited is from accurate and genuine sources. Consistency in references allows readers to focus on the original content of the article.

References must be presented in full and by the information cited in the contents of the article. The reference list must be arranged alphabetically (A to Z) and written last, with the concept of the American Psychological Association (APA) or by using the Mendeley application
